Hello AIA Readers, my pseudonym is Reese, obviously in keeping with the Spirit of AIA. I will be your guide to all things film and television related. Also probably will throw in some video game and music content because that is something else that I enjoy and I am extremely familiar with.
Let's start off with my new obsession: Weeds.

Let's start off with my new obsession: Weeds.
First off, I just need to get this off my chest....

Ok, now that that is over with, I absolutely love this show, fantastic characters put into sometimes outrageous situations. I will admit it is not my favorite show of all time (that will be for another post) but still better then most t.v. shows on today.
My favorite character is Andy, the brother-in-law. Since the father died he has become the male figure in the household. Which I believe he hit his peak when he talks to the youngest son (Shane) about masturbation. Here is an excerpt from that conversation.

"From there we move on to more lubricated flack-catchers - specificially, bananas. Step one: Peel the banana. Step two: Slip the peel over your Randy Johnson and start pitching. Now for extra credit, warm up the peel in the microwave. Not too hot! Serious yowza. Also, olive oil, moisturizer, honey, spit, butter, hair conditioner, and Vaseline can all be used for lube. In my opinion, the best lube... is lube. So save your allowance and invest in some soon. Alright, moving on - when you tug your Thomas on the toilet - ffft - shoot right into the bowl."
Yeah, that's probably one of the best monologues about masturbation ever.
There is one issue though with this show, it can get a tad bit racist. Especially with African-Americans. Again an excerpt from another conversation

"Conrad Shepard: You calling black people stupid?
Nancy Botwin: And lazy... and they also steal.
Heylia James: Yeah, but we sings and we dances real good."
It just seems a little too much, even though they were making fun of the stereotypes. I really don't like stereotypes. (Remember that because that will come in handy in the future.)
