Enjoying refreshing TaB's while indulging in some really good and really bad television.

Girls is back with a two-parter, we had some Simpsons and Bob's Burgers. And Revenge is giving me anxiety.

A good portion of television was back and also I'm guessing will be back. Guess I'll have to halt all the "fun" shows I'm watching.

Carrie Diaries, Revenge, The Simpsons, Bob's Burgers. Did I miss one?

This is pretty much the only night that has television this week. Carrie Diaries from Friday, and Sunday held Bob's Burgers, The Simpsons and Revenge. And seriously why can't Revenge have a Christmas episode?? Oh cause it's summer.

Revenge with a side of Bob's Burgers, The Simpsons and Getting On. Oh yeah and Carrie was on on Friday.

Since last week was full of holiday's with the exception of Glee, that will appear here along with Bob's Burgers because this week is going to be sparse as well. Go team!

Carrie Diaries that actually had some continuity on Friday, Sunday was a little slow because of the American Music Awards so just a little Bob's Burgers and The Simpsons. And don't worry...I did watch the Doctor Who 50Th Anniversary, it just gets its own post next week. Simmer.

Downton Abbey finale. Holy mother, riiiight? The Simpsons hit hilariously close to home tonight, Bob's Burgers had it's moments though it wasn't my favorite and I feel like my love for Revenge is coming back.

Also some tidbits from Friday, had to mention the Masterchef Jr winner and my high school alum that guest-starred on The Carrie Diaries.

I haven't had a full Sunday night in what seems like forever (thanks baseball). Bob's Burgers and The Simpson's are back and now that I'm caught up on Downton Abbey I have that to look forward to as well. Oh and that Revenge show I'm still watching, mainly for Nolan.

i will just call this post the shinning because i also do not want to get sued

It is no surprise that The Shining is my favorite movie. What I love almost as much as the movie itself is all of the references out there within movies and television. Here is my list of some of the best of them.

As written recently here, small obsession with Treehouse of Horror, and probably the best of all-time is The Shinning. Obviously a classic and deserved it's out shout out so moving on...

I don't watch Supernatural. I'm sorry. Doxey watches Supernatural so I am sure at some point I will get there. One thing I am aware of regarding the series is their multiple references to The Shining. Just a few of my favorites that are a little more thought out than just dialogue: A not so obvious reference to the nearest city of Sidewinder, a few apartment/room numbers being 237, and basically the entire season 2 episode Playthings. Seriously, why am I not watching this again?

Sid's carpet in Toy Story looks a bit familiar.

The South Park episode A Nightmare on Facetime loosely follows the plot of the movie where Stan's family purchases an abandoned Blockbuster video only for Stan's dad to be haunted by ghosts and turn into a Jack Torrence-y like maniac.

One of my favorites is so extremely subtle I did not catch it until the re-watch. Breaking Bad pays a small tribute in season 3. The Salamanca twins murder a police officer with an axe. Minutes before on the police radio you hear a call to KDK-12, the same call letters of the Overlook Hotel.


This 30 Seconds to Mars music video.



Gilmore Girls has five of them (and also has my heart). Mainly verbiage including axes, "here's Johnny" and crazy people.

Crawl Space, one of the earlier episodes of one of the best animated shows ever Bob's Burgers, takes place in a crawl space. Obviously. But with Bob being trapped within the crawl space he starts to hallucinate...about a bar...

And probably the most well-known from Friends.



And this photo because hello obviously.
