I was born in 1991, at the height of Full House’s popularity. The show was on every day at my house. I think of it as the show that calibrated my sense of being. Watching Full House is my television equivalent of the fetal position…
The phrase ‘out with the old and in with the new’ is a particularly bittersweet sentiment this New Year’s Eve, as we have lost a genuine comedy legend, namely the one and only: Betty White. As the New Year is a particularly apt time to reflect on the past year (2020 2.0, right?)…
This week I traumatized myself, and my husband, by forcing us to try the Brach’s Thanksgiving Dinner with Coffee and Apple Pie candy corn. Luckily, we were watching Friends (NBC, 1994-2004) at the same time, or it would have been a wholly intolerable experience…
For those of you who have been living in resistance to the rise of the digital streaming service era, this week marked the second anniversary of the launch of Disney+, aka Disney’s very own (and rather limited) streaming platform. In celebration of their two-year anniversary…
It’s that wonderfully spooky time of year, and while I love watching some Hocus Pocus or wandering through a corn maze, I’m always reminded that I’m a ‘fraidy-cat' at heart. Today, I present to you my ultimate tale of cowardice, as I relate to you my personal history with the Child’s Play franchise…
Fall is upon us, and what better way to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year than with a watch (or rewatch) of the seasonally-centered dramedy, Gilmore Girls (The WB/The CW, 2000-2007)?
Oh, hi there! Yes, I know. It’s been a hot minute since I graced you all with my presence... It’s been a bit of a wild couple of months, but things are starting to get back on track. You’ll have to bear with me content-wise for a while, as recent events have made me extra nostalgic lately (yes, I am also shocked that there was room for more nostalgia from me)…
Spring is here! Between the (dreaded) time change (seriously: enough with ‘daylight savings’ time already!), the days steadily getting longer, and the weather becoming surprisingly pleasant, we, the Team at The Film Rewind, have admittingly gotten a little distracted…
It has been a while since I checked in and mentioned what I have currently been watching. Even with 2020 in our rearview, there has been a serious lack of ‘new’ content, so I have found myself mostly turning to older movies…
"Welcome back, everybody." I hope that all of you, whether you celebrated the holidays or not, were able to have a safe and healthy time over the past few weeks. One of the highlights of my holiday was receiving a ton of Bob Ross painting supplies, so that I can begin pushing trees out of my brush and scraping out mountains along with him as I watch his relaxing and instructional painting series, The Joy of Painting…
For someone who detests capitalism as much as I do, old commercials hold an inordinately dear place in my heart….
We know that 2020 is shaping up to be one strange year that has drastically altered most everyone’s holiday plans… So, we, the team here at The Film Rewind…
There are few physical possessions that I cherish more than my VHS collection…
Nothing screams Halloween quite like a good, old-fashioned movie marathon. Whether horror films are your jam…
With the slim pickings and lackluster viewing options (what with the pandemic putting a damper on traditional production and release timelines), I tend to find myself aimlessly cycling, clicking, and searching through my various streaming platforms…
It's that time again! It's especially fitting to stroll down memory lane this week, as October 5th marked the 50th anniversary of the network's launch…
Happy (Belated) Autumnal Equinox! Seriously though, it is ‘that’ time of year (and no, we aren’t talking about Christmas), fall is upon us, and we, the team at The Film Rewind, could not be happier…
Since Bailey wrote about her favorite felines of film and television last month (check out her top ten fictional kitties here), I have not been able to stop thinking about which cats would make the cut on my list…
