it's been a while since i've shared with you things i've been watching. let me tell you naman this time the comedy and soaps i've been watching on tv.
call it a chronicle of the nights i've spent slouching on a couch watching what could be the best invention that came in a box (before computers ruled it). from the 70's to the current programs, here are my favorites...
Diff’rent Strokes. This one taught me how to appreciate black humor. Tuwang-tuwa ako sa negro at bibong bida dito na si Gary Coleman. It had a good 7 to 8 years run from the late 70’s to mid-80’s.
Full House. Shown from 1987 to 1995. I clearly remember how funny the gang led by Bob Saget was. At yong cute na baby pa lang na Olsen twins. Of course malaki na ako nang malaman kong dalawa pala ang gumaganap na role ni Michelle.
Sisters. As far as I can remember, ito yong unang-unang soap na tinutukan ko. A story of four sisters whose lives are so varied yet equally interesting. The cast featured Sela Ward and Swoozie Kurtz among others. It ran from 1991 to 1996 on NBC.
Melrose Place. Another soap that got me hooked on the 90’s, naumpisahan ko ang story nito na naka-focus pa sa original occupants ng Melrose Place (Andrew Shue, etc.) hanggang ilang taon na at nadagdag na ang characters ni Sidney at ni Marcia Cross. Hanggang sinawaan ko na kasi pumangit na at lumaylay ang story.
Ally McBeal. Eto naman ang sitcom na na-enjoy ko from the first season in 1997 until the last episodes in 2002 . Funny characters, magaling ang scriptwriter who wrote witty dialogues and of course, malupit ang scoring, mostly by Vonda Shepard na naging paborito ko dahil dito.
Six Feet Under (2001 to 2005). It’s a pity hindi na ito pinalabas kahit saan. HBO exclusive kasi. But this dark and rather spooky dramedy is something na pinag-pupuyatan ko noon sa Pinas. Very insightful on matters of life and death and everything in between.
Friends. Siguro naman hindi lang ako ang na-hook dito. Most of you must have seen and enjoyed the funny and witty scenes in this sit com that made Jennifer Aniston and the rest of the gang’s name a household fixture for ten years (1994 to 2004).
Scrubs. Ngayon ko na lang ito naa-appreciate after passing through it most of the time for the last year or so. Sometimes bordering on the absurd, pero nakakatuwa ang atake nito sa mga situations and characters at work (in a hospital) and their personal lives. Starring the wacky Zach Braff and hilarious Donald Faison. Premiered in 2001 and still going.
My Wife and Kids. Damon Wayans is one funny man! This is one hilarious show that presents the daily life of a black contemporary family. Had a four-year run from 2001 to 2005. Currently being shown on MBC4 and Dubai One.
Desperate Housewives. It premiered in 2004 and immediately won a huge following including me. The first season was extremely addictive. I hope they can keep it that way. Season 2 just ended on Dubai One.
