What a horrible thing to have to do!

There's no smell thankfully, but I know full well that everything in these boxes is going to have to be cleaned because whatever crap he set on fire that night left an oily black residue on everything in the entire house. And I don't want to deal with it.

They’re rebooting “ALF.”

No. Just no.

Does TV have no original ideas anymore? Were 80’s sitcoms all that great the first time around?

And Magnum, P.I.

There are no words to even express the horror I am feeling, although for a different reason than Alf, which was just awful.

Tom Selleck is the only Magnum, P.I. Period.

Seriously, ALF? I enjoyed that at the time (and had a big stuffed ALF), because I was a kid, but I would have no desire to watch a reboot or even show it (original or reboot) to my D.

ETA: And a reboot of Magnum seems really wrong as well!
Thanks for this!

That’s a big fat NO on the Alf reboot. I loved it as a little kid. Why can’t they just let things be? Sheesh..

Time for work. It’s gonna be a long one. I applied for 6 jobs this AM because I was laying a stupid-o-clock.
Well-off I go. Give me strength! 6pm is a long time from now seeing as though it’s barely 7:30am in these parts as I type this. Ugh.

You can be the Couch point person on that. Kind of like me and Oreos. I eat them so the rest of you don’t have to.

They call it a reboot, but it's just lazy plagiarism. They don't even have to pretend to be original.

Magnum PI was at least fun. Alf was just awful. Perhaps I was just too old for Alf -but the actor playing the father was the most depressing man ever, the children were annoying, the wife an idiot for staying with the rest of them, and the whole premise just goofy. Plus it seems the guy playing the father hated the whole thing and the puppet caused all sorts of staging problems. Plus I just hate puppets

It's been one full week without R. Because I have an extra £40, I splurged on flowers. I bought pink lilies and chrysanthemums this week! They make me stupidly happy.

See, if you didn’t have an in-house Oreo expert, you could have caused an incident by sending those.

I think ALF may have been the strangest premise for a TV show since My Mother the Car.
