News-wise, it appears I picked a good week to not be around, as a lot of little things happened – mainly people being cast in pilots (most of which you will never see) – but very few big things. Fire away, and when I have more time, maybe we can have a longer discussion on great TV for kids and parents alike. Available streaming of all episodes a plus, but not mandatory. Other suggestions have included “Adventure Time” and “Gravity Falls,” but I’m also open to less current things. Jumping ahead to the sequel series “The Legend of Korra” seems obvious, but A)there’s only one season so far, and B)I’ve heard it’s aimed at a slightly older audience than “Avatar” was. (*) Down the road, I might have more to say on the subject of “Avatar,” which I found really tremendous – and which, like the best family entertainment, was just as enthralling for my 9-year-old daughter as it was for 39-year-old me – but right now I’m looking for recommendations on what to try next.
I clocked back in last night to watch and write about Seth MacFarlane and the Oscar-cast. Glad to see me? I guess we’re in the next life!īack from a fun week off with the family, that included a trip to Disney World, the conclusion of an “Avatar: The Last Airbender” marathon(*) with my daughter, airport hijinks, etc.
