(would have been) the perfect end to the Toy Story series
Viewed by many as the perfect culmination of the Toy Story films, in which Andy has now grown up and is about to leave for College (or, as we call it here, University).

Many of his old toys have fallen by the wayside over the years since the first two Toy Story films - either sold off, or broken, or given away - leaving just a small cadre of Andy favourite childhood toys still around: Buzz, Woody, Jesse, Mr and Mrs Potato Head, Rex and Dr PorkChops (I think that's his name … you know, the Piggy Bank toy), with most of those - except Woody - mistakenly donated to Sunnyside Daycare Care, where they believe they will get played with every day.

(Incidentally, it's no mistake that Sunnyside Daycare Centre is a name that could just as easily be applied to an Old People's Home just as much as to a nursery.

That ending, though.

I'm not crying … you're crying!

TV Season Rating
The second season of The Avengers is a show going through a transformation following the departure of its original star. The results are understandably a bit uneven sometimes, with episodes made in a range of styles - some are very ambitious globe-trotting spy capers, others more routine detective stories, while a few approach a more recognisably quirky and whimsical Avengers style. Production values are equally variable and often primitive: there are many technical mistakes and actors sometimes appear in multiple roles.

The three Dr Keel episodes are easily the dullest; the ones with singer Venus Smith are better but still often clumsy and slowed down by musical interludes; you can tell that the producers very quickly realised that Mrs Gale was the character with real potential. All the best episodes feature Honor Blackman and you can see the chemistry between her and Patrick Macnee growing from episode to episode. Not quite yet a classic TV series, but on the way.
