American Pie Presents: The Book of Love (2009 Video)

Dreadful-Didn't make me laugh once

[1/10 · 16 July 2012]

I won't talk about the dreadful plot, just talk about why this movie is so bad. Just stick to AP, AP2, AP3TW, APTR, as those are the only decent (and true) American Pie movies. This movie was terrible, and it seems like the writers wanted to show off their sexual knowledge, rather than focusing on actual humour. The only real American Pie character in this movie is Noah Levenstein(Jim's Dad), portrayed by Eugene Levy.

I don't like this movie one bit, despite being a massive comedy fan. The original, proper American Pie movies are far superior, and even The Naked Mile was better than this piece of-(insert profanity). If you know what's best for you, stay away from this.

Wipeout (2008–2014)

A really entertaining show to watch after an exhausting day.

[10/10 · 12 July 2012]

So every episode features 24 going through a series of obstacle courses. The commentary isn't very funny, but some of the wipeouts are hilarious. However the Smackwall and Rumble Bridge obstacle from Season 3 are being re-used in the qualifying round which, as a regular viewer, sometimes pisses me off. However most of the stunts are incredible, such as a series of pegs in a wall that extend and retract, so contestants will have to navigate their way walking along the pegs. My 5 favourite episodes(as of 12 July 2012)- Season 3 Episode 17, Season 4 Episode 8, S4E31, S5E8, S5E11. When Jill Wagner left the show, she was replaced by Vanessa Lachey. Vanessa fails to deliver the hilarious accompaniment of Jill. Overall a wonderful show.

Two and a Half Men (2003–2015)

Great, hilarious sitcom!

[10/10 · 6 July 2012]

*Written from a 12 year old's POV* I love this show, personally, and I currently own the season 1-8 boxset. The first episode I ever saw, Aunt Myra Doesn't Pee A Lot, really entertained me and I have been watching for the past year. Charlie Sheen, Jon Cryer and Angus T. Jones all deliver solid performances for the three primary characters. Created by Chuck Lorre (who also created TBBT and Dharma & Greg), this sitcom does a really good job of gradually changing characters over time, like Jake (the series starts when he is 10) and Charlie (who develops a great relationship w/ Jake).

*SPOILER ALERT*

After Charlie Sheen was fired from the show, it really suffered. Ashton Kutcher (who replaces him) does not do a good job in replacing him. The show is still hilarious, but nowadays I would give the Kutcher era 7 out of ten compared to 10 out of ten for Charlie's era.
