Truth be told, I don’t watch Nickelodeon as much as I used to. However, the network shifted its programming structure recently to bring back some old favorites like All That and Double Dare, while also making room for new competition shows like America’s Most Musical Family.

Super…Fail
Did you watch Super Bowl LIII? Oh, you didn't? Lucky you!I had the "joy" of sitting through about four hours of a dumpster fire that was the Super Bowl. Every aspect of the event was drab. Even rivaling Super Bowl 50, where I witnessed the Panthers snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Here's a [...]

My Friday Five: On A Concert Cancellation, A New ‘AGT’ Champ, And Recapping The Bulls Season

My Friday Five: On Friends, ‘Code Black’ & A Stranger Things Night Recap
1. Musings on Being a True Friend

If you’re a real one, don’t just come around when you need something and act like everything is all hunky-dory. Ask the person how he or she is doing. If you haven’t talked in a while, see what’s new in the person’s life. Offer to meet with them for lunch or offer to hang out. It really goes a long way.
