Arctic Air
(2012)

off to a really good start
The show has all of the basics for greatness. Mix a little out of your element in a fashion that reminds me a little of Northern Exposure with just a touch of Wings, I couldn't tell you why on that second part. Add two of Sanctuary's finest women Pascale Hutton and Emilie Ullerup. Mix it with a well played hometown hero who has lost his way. I did see Smoke Signals but, Adam Beach will always be Kicking Wing(Joe Dirt) to me. Top it all off with Kevin McNulty and stir well. All cooking metaphors aside Arctic Air is a great show. I'm always eager to embrace a new sitcom or comedy, I mean who doesn't love to laugh but, it takes a while for me to warm up to a show with a good amount of heart and warmth. Arctic Air pulls this and more off in stride. In just the first couple episodes I'm eager to see what the future holds next for these characters. I hope that this is just the beginning of show greatness and I'll be watching.

Terminator Salvation
(2009)

..."what had to be done" and contains *a spoiler* but, its more of just an inside joke... so you have been warned
...it did what had to be done. It reminded me of what i like about the franchise... It made me forget about what happened between "T2" and "T4". Honestly i wish Salvation was the 3rd installment but, it is to painful to talk about what could have or what should have been...The director McG pulled it all together and when you hear his name don't think "Charlie's Angels" or "the O.C." try to think "Supernatural" and "Chuck" or maybe even Offspring, Korn or Sublime music videos. Honestly and in all fairness for a TV series "Sara Connor Chronicles" actually helped to hype me up for this movie,that and G4, Im not sure if it was just Summer Glau, Lena Headey and Stephanie Jacobsen that got me going and it could have even just been that huge budget they had but, definitely not to shabby for TV... I kind of expected a resistance to "T4" at first by many but, when i saw it the theater was basically empty, which made it nice and comfy for us true believers. I still haven't completely forgiven them for "Rise of the Machines" and i probably never will but, i cant forgive Scott Bakula or Roddenberry's legacy for the series "Enterprise" but, i did enjoy the new movie. All in all it goes to show you that it is very easy to think a Terminator is down for the count with: a political career, missing arm, missing torso and covered in liquid hot magma but, when you least expect it he comes back full force and keeps comin.
