The TV Yearbook
Remember the "best and worst of" categories featured in your high school year book? We do that with TV shows. We scour the internet to find the best and worst episodes of popular tv shows. We watch them. We talk about them. Sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's serious and sometimes we make you think. Hosted by Dom, Greg and James. Three children of the 80's that love television and are remarkably average in every way.

Well it's been a year so it seems like a good time to release something. This is our last episode of the season and the series. We had a good run but if you would like to change our mind and continue with the work of art, please reach out via the socials, gmail (TheTVYearbook@gmail.com), or patreon.
Regardless we did very little editing on this to get it out, so don't be too harsh of a judge and enjoy.
According to popular opinio...What would happen if someone was given a ton of money and free reign to create a show that was conceived in the brain of Jim Henson?
Well you don't have to wonder because it was created. A sitcom full of animatronic masses of latex and silicone, a catchphrase machine in the form of a baby megalosaurus, and gallons of anti-fungal cream for the actors inside those suits graced the TGIF lineup in the early 90's.

Boy Meets World follows the boy, Cory Matthews, and his friend Shawn from middle school to college as they navigate all the trials and tribulations that those environments can hurl at you.
They tackle alcoholism, cults, parental absenteeism and a slew of other hard hitting issues.

Family Matters, a spin off from Perfect Strangers, focuses on the Winslow family as they navigate life while having to deal with a serial stalker with a penchant for destroying personal property.
Somehow that lunatic-genius, Steve Urkel, became an overnight sensation and took the world by storm. You couldn't walk through a school in the 90's without hearing someone say "Did I do that?"

Sliders was a show that "the suits" wanted to bury but the fans kept it alive. Originally on FOX and canceled multiple times, the show eventually ended up on the Syfy Channel where it was unceremonsionuly laid to rest.
The show was kind of like Quantum Leap but younger, hipper and starred a future dwarf. It kept the audience coming back with its alternate timelines formula as the "Sliders" "slid" into "infinite" "parallel" "dime...
A space opera that was ahead of its time OR on an island of obscurity?
A show that survived by staying under budget OR was fiscally responsible?
Had original stories OR ripped off everything in existence?
These are some of the burning questions that we tackle in our episode covering the best and worst of Babylon 5. A show that actually won Emmys, has a dedicated following but is not available to be streamed.

This show has everything you want: ghosts, aliens, hot leads, psychics that can't win the lottery, government conspiracies and crazy meow dolls.

According to popular opinion on the internet: The best...Where's the safest place to be during a pandemic? One might think it's in Roy Scheider's bigger boat with the talking dolphin. However you can't forget about the underwater sea facility making mutant plants that are oddly reminiscent of an infamous speech in the Val-Air Ballroom in West Des Moines, Iowa.
If you like girthy, swinging, unkempt foliage, wonder why Dom is disappointed in himself and are curious about an underwater We...
Putting right that which once went wrong? Many things go awry for Dr. Sam Beckett as he leaps around time and place and into other people's bodies but the musical number he and Al came up with should be at the top of the list.

According to popular opinion on the internet: the best episode of this series is season 3 episode 8: The Widowmaker While the worst is season 7 episode 6: Walking DeadLight colored suits with a pastel t-shirt underneath was a look that you could only pull off on Halloween. But not true for Crockett and Tubbs. It also probably helped that they drove around in fancy cars and boats and got to blow stuff up. Also having the day's top music play in the background was just icing on the cake made of cocaine.
If you still have your white suit because just maybe you'll have a reason to wear it, then...
Explosions? Yes. Mr. T? Of course. Terrible marksmanship? It's a must. These are just a few of the hallmarks of "The A-Team". A group of ex-army special force members, apparently on the run from the United States government, parade around the country performing heroic deeds.
