When I was a kid, I could handle just about anything Star Wars and this show was no exception. It expanded on the universe of Star Wars by showing R2-D2 and C-3PO with other "masters" and other adventures they had.
Unfortunately, I don't believe the full season was ever released on DVD other than the "Best Of" which is still entertaining, but missing some episodes.
My 13-year-old self just loved it.

I've been wanting to watch this movie for a while now, and was sad that I missed it in theaters.
After seeing it, I feel better about missing it. The movie was largely ok, it was funny, and the action was good. But, I did feel like it was so drawn out for the concept. The cast is strong, and I enjoyed the performances, aside from Larson (I'm not a huge fan of her). This film is definitely style over substance.

Fun times
This cult classic is a fun musical.
This might not before everyones taste, very sexual theme movie. To watch this properly you need to go to an event where they are showing it. People will be there dressed up as characters and have props like water guns, toast and more fun things. If you plan to watch this at home you will be missing out on so much.
This is not a movie but a social event for the weird.
  
This was my first time reading a novel like this but it is certainly not my last. I cannot think of a single thing missing or should be added. I love historical romance and wanted to try an MM romance. I found that I enjoyed it much more than usual romance because the couple was not dealing with the same old problems you read about in every historical romance. It was something fresh and new, with an amazing lead couple.

PI Paul Artisan is hired to find a missing twin. However, what is his new client hiding? I enjoyed this as a mystery novel with occasional nods to Lost, the TV show it was supposed to tie into. However, if you were looking for more connected to Lost, you'll be disappointed. Read it for the mystery and nothing else.

Comedy theater owner Elliot Freed is upset when his ex-wife goes missing. Then the police start looking for her in a suspicious suicide. What's going on? Yes, this is a comic mystery. And I laughed the entire way through. The climax came a little abruptly and the new characters were a tad flat, but I loved every minute of it.

The Bob-Whites grow in number as they add neighbor Diana Lynch to the mix. She's unhappy because of her uncle. He's just shown up after being missing for years, and Diana is sure something is off. Could he be an impostor? A good mystery and the characters are still at their best. Another great read in a series I love.

When PI Charlie Swift is saddled with a new partner, she does everything she can to get this new woman to quit the business. Meanwhile, she has to track down the missing mother of a baby. The book has an odd combination of humorous and serious, but it really works. I liked the characters and can't wait to visit them again.

When a former SFPD cop is murdered in a former gold rush town, Monk reluctantly heads up there to find the killer. Along the way, he and Natalie make an interesting discovery about an ancestor. The passages from the past combine quite well with the modern mystery, making this another fun book for fans who are missing the show.

Gerry Porter is looking forward to seeing her family for Christmas. But soon that takes a back seat when a friend at the retirement home goes missing, only to reappear as the prime suspect in a murder. Can Gerry clear her name? The pacing was uneven, but I just love Gerry, her family, and the small town she lives in.
