Wendy’s Week of TV: Part 32 February 20, 2009

SundayThe Einstein Factor: Yay my favourite “Parko” was on the panel. Sadly, though the Factor (as it is known for short round these parts) engaged in some blatant ABC cross promotion with the Catalyst dinosaur expert man whose name escaped me. Still, Parko…he’s my favourite (after Barry Jones of course). But who’s next? Tony Jones? […]

“Pipe down chorus boy”: Seinfeld Series 2: The Jacket February 12, 2009

My mum and I both agreed that the best parts of both those movies are the finales, especially the final scene of Billy Elliot when adult […]
