While I’m not under any illusion about the quality of the Harold and Kumar films, I still find them humorous enough to enjoy. Guilty pleasures, if you will. not only are there three films, but now they have been collected into a new package for fans. I’m sure it was done as some sort of…
My daughter loves “My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic” and while I’m not nearly as enamored with the show as she is, I’ll actually sit down and watch an episode or two with her. What’s interesting is my 9 year old son also enjoys the program. The show is occasionally recorded on the DVR for…
