Doctor… Who? Or, proof all Brits are connected to British Fiction… in their real lives!

As someone who studied abroad in the United Kingdom, I am frequently asked, “Is Great Britain similar to the many ‘quintessentially’ British things I’ve seen in Guy Ritchie movies, Harry Potter and Doctor Who?”

The answer is, of course, “Absolutely.”

A Tale of Two Shepherds

December 21, 2009 By: Jim Gibbons Category: Haphazard Reckonings, Skimming the Internets, TV guides

The Chase: A post in no way about that Charlie Sheen movie.

Though my childhood was filled with hours in front of the television that allow me the ability to still recall and recite numerous commercial jingles from my youth—from Amazin’ Fruit to Gator Golf and on down to Crocodile Mile and Crossfire—I haven’t had cable for a few months and rarely see TV adverts anymore. However, at the gym yesterday, I saw a commercial that spoke to me on an oddly primal level.

Captain Castle

October 27, 2009 By: Jim Gibbons Category: Facial Hair, TV guides

Behind “Home Movies,” “Firefly” is my favorite television show of all time. So, when I heard Captain Mal Reynolds (aka actor Nathan Fillion) would be starring in a new show called “Castle,” I made a note to check it out.

That was over a year ago.

Well how about that! Though I sent it over to them months ago, the tumbleblog for the upcoming Cartoon Network show “Adventure Time” has just started posting fan art left and right and finally got around to posting mine!

Why I love the “Adventure Time Art” Tumbleblog

October 13, 2009 By: Jim Gibbons Category: Skimming the Internets, TV guides

It’s well documented that I’m a pretty big fan of “Adventure Time.” That fanship led me to subscribe to the tumbleblog (or tumblr) where the folks from Frederator Studios working on the upcoming “Adventure Time” cartoon post all the art that will eventually appear on the show. Here are two great examples of (A) how hilarious this show is going to be and (B) why you should be checking this tumblr regularly.

September 01, 2009 By: Jim Gibbons Category: Illustrations, Skimming the Internets, TV guides

Ever since I saw the “Share Your Fan Art” button in the margin of the “Adventure Time” tumbleblog, I began plotting a super short comic strip to submit. I opted for a slightly crazed, Hulkin’ out Finn… and here it is!
