Supergirl

Isn't One Of The Smallville TV Show Action Figures!

Smallville, the TV Show, has many fans that have helped keep the series on the air.

Thanks to their efforts, DC Direct is presenting the launch of the world’s greatest Superhero team in Action Figure forms, 'Smallville' style!

There was a great moment on the Smallville episode titled “Justice,” where some of Earth’s greatest heroes came together for the first time on TV!

The heroes were: Green Arrow (Oliver Queen), Impulse (Bart Allen), Aquaman (Arthur “AC” Curry) and Cyborg (Victor Stone), and of course Superboy (Clark Kent).

These figures are expected to be on sale May 7, 2008 !

I haven't seen where a Kara/Supergirl action figure is coming out, if you have seen it please email us! As HOT as Laura Vandervoort is in our blog, the Show is definitely missing a sales opportunity!

We also have an ongoing pop culture - comics convention here at Make It So Marketing, what with our daily blog posts and listings of items for sale!

New Amsterdam TV Show
Mood:

not sure
Topic: TV Shows

New Amsterdam TV Show

On The Fox Network!

Ever since the WGA Strike affected our viewing habits, I have been hesitant to blog about midseason TV Shows.

Indeed when this show first came out, I couldn't make up my mind to like or dislike the show...

However after several episodes have aired I am now ready to recommend viewing this show... just in time for Monday Night's Season Finale for this show!

What a TV Season this has been! LOL! Hopefully you can catch it on a DVD set...

My hesitancy was because the show's similar to a few I've liked in the past, but it does pander to the current fixation on TV of showing dead bodies over and over... which Tina and I personally don't like to watch. We watch TV for escapism not for dead bodies...

However the background to show is a good one, and the producers have fleshed this show out over the abbreviated season.

What's It about???

The main character is John Amsterdam, (played by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), who saves the life of a Native American girl when Manhattan Island was 'New Amsterdam' and owned by Dutch.

The girl in turn gives him immortality through a spell in order to save his life...

Okay... well here is the twist to this show... John Amsterdam will not age until he finds his one true love! Oh yeah... at which point he will become mortal again and can die!

So the show is about a 400 year old man who has lived multiple occupations and had many families during that time. Sounds convuluted but it is fun watching the story unfold in today's world with flashbacks from his past!

Other than the dead bodies, because he's currently a New York Homicide Detective, the show is pretty darn good!

American Idol Results Show 04-10-08 Our Take!

Our Take On

The American Idol

Results Show

'The Final 8'

04-10-08

Thursday Night was the 'Results Show' where the results of "America's" votes were broadast, with the ending result of one contestant being sent home... after three Nights of American Idol because of the 'Idol Gives Back' Special Show on Wednesday night!

The below were the contestants in the 'bottom three' of the Top 8 in order of their scores ranked by Tina and Michael on the night of their performance:

The 'Bottom 3 Of The Final 8'

(No #)	Name of Contestant	Michael's Take	Score Difference	Tina's Take
1	Syesha Mercado	6.5	0.5	7.0
2	Michael Johns (pictured above)	7.0	0.0	7.0
3	Carly Smithson	7.5	0.0	7.5

General news first:

More stars were shown lip synching and / or dancing to The Monkees' song 'I'm A Believer' for their time to 'Idol Gives Back'. I personally enjoyed seeing Michael Chiklis (of The Shield TV Show / Thing from The Fantastic Four Films).

There were over 31 million votes cast for the Top 8, the highest this season.

For additional entertainment Jordin Sparks with Chris Brown sang. Tina hated the song... didn't do much for me either. However Jordin was awarded three plaques for outstanding sales of her singles and CD.

Also, the Idols' featured song for the night sponsored by Ford Motors was 'I Just Want To Celebrate'. I found the vocals just fair, but found the video to be OK...

Then the the bottom three were on the stage.... and Michael Johns was voted off! Carly was surprised, Michael was bowing his head in disbelief, Simon had an amused (or pained?) look on his face, and Paula of course was shocked!

Michael's closing song for the show was sung soooo much better than when he first performed it, and did you notice he didn't want to end up on stage with other Final 7 contestants?? He was on the raised platform behind the judges at the end and stayed there when the show closed out....

Secondly: The following are our thoughts after watching the results announced:

Tina said that she was surprised that Michael left so soon... but he had peaked early and made poor song choices since then. Additionally she informed me, as she has been watching since Season 1, that 'America' usually goes for the pop singers, and Michael couldn't figure out what he wanted to be... Rock or Blues, but he definitely wasn't Pop!

Michael said that he had liked Michael Johns at the beginning and really enjoyed his 'Light My Fire' performance weeks ago, but had seemed to peak early. However he agrees with Simon that Michael is a good singer and that he should find his way somewhere down the line and should make a go of it singing professionally...

For those that missed our previous blog posts on this TV Show.... Please see the following link for our most previous blog post. We have been blogging about Season 7 since the first week:

04-10-08 Before Tonight's American Idol Results Show...!
