Good Morning, Miami (2002)
it has potential
I hate to spoil the hate party of this show, but I must stray from the group and say that this show is very well-written. Sure, the structural weaknesses are annoying, you don't know where the hell the story is going and hardly care, but the dialogue is always usually inventive.
Seeing as how "Friends" is gassing out rapidly, "Scrubs" is quickly degenerating into a comic strip, and "Will & Grace" is only watchable at the rate of every other episode, "Good Morning Miami" is just about the strongest show on the NBC Must-See-TV line-up. What it lacks for in plot it makes up for in snappy one-liners.
Of course, there is that whole question of what the purpose of this show will be once Jake and Dylan hook-up, and it is frustrating to watch it week after week as Jake misses yet another missed opportunity to make his declaration to Dylan, but I really appreciate this show's ability to make itself watchable scene by scene.
There are rarely any sitcoms on the air as well-written, if you just isolate and reduce "writing" to what comes out of the characters' mouths. In that respect, this show has the "writing" thing down. Now, if they can only give the show a sense of real purpose...
Love Champions (1985)
best porn movie
This movie is about a sex therapy camp where troubled couples go for counseling. So, the couples arrive, and the doctors and nurses help them with their love lives by teaching them how to pleasure each other, and the staff also joins in on the fun. The couples swing with one another, and the movie ends in a huge orgy, with lots of partner-switching.
The great thing about "Love Champions" is its sense of humor. The acting is too good for porn, and that's what makes it funny. They act out all the foreplay using naughty words while keeping a straight face. It's almost as if you're watching these people through a hidden camera instead of poorly staged-and-scripted lens.
But best of all, the movies great because it looks like it was made in the 70's. (I was really surprised to find out that it was made in 1985.) In the 70's, people looked really natural and they looked like they were really enjoying themselves, which really helps in this world of impersonal porn.
If you can find a copy of "Love Champions," get it.
