And The Emmy Goes To…

Being a somewhat “seasoned” human means you remember growing up with a scarce number of tv channels back in the day. When I was a wee little lad there were a whopping 6 or 7 channels to choose from, and the stations actually signed off the air at midnight. And if you grew up in the late 60’s and 70’s, when you weren’t in school or outside playing with your friends, chances are you were either watching cartoons or kid-themed shows in the mornings and afternoons, with the classic family-themed shows in the evenings.

If you were lucky, your parents might occasionally let you watch Laugh-In or Sonny & Cher. So risqué!

Of course times have changed a skosh and we now have just under a squillion channels, networks and streaming services at our disposal for our instant viewing pleasure. While there’s a plethora of good shows to choose from, it can get a bit overwhelming just scrolling through the myriad of comedies, dramas, murders and mayhems. If you’re like me, you recognize the importance of keeping your watch list growing exponentially by adding show after show that sounds just intriguing enough to put on the list, but that you won’t have watched a year from now. But hey that’s ok – keep that list going!

Amidst all of the original ideas, reboots and spinoffs out there, there’s one new show that’s sure to be the hot topic at family dinner tables, break-room water coolers, and health club gossip. Yep, I’m talking about

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law

–

Yeah I know.

Some shows make ya feel dumber just reading their title.

Yessss, this latest new blockbuster-in-the-making somehow cleared every hurdle – from its very concept to the name – to defy the odds and make it to production, post-production, and global premiere. We’ll always remember exactly what we were doing the first time we heard about this groundbreaking new epicness. I just hope it’s properly represented in a time capsule at some point.

We’ve definitely come a long way since the 60’s and 70’s. It wasn’t that long ago that female hulks were expected to stay home and be housewives. Nowadays? They practice LAW baby!

When hearing about shows like this, perhaps we should take it as a sign from the Universe. Maybe, just maaaybe we’re supposta shut the TV off and live our lives a little more.

After we’ve added She-Hulk to our watch list of course.
