Posted on November 14th, 2012 by
Bubble Guppies is a popular Nick Jr. show about a group of mermaid kids who attend an underwater school taught by Mr. Grouper. Now your preschoolers can learn with the fishes with Bubble Guppies on Nintendo DS. One of the Bubble Guppies (sorry I can’t remember all their names), sees a race car while swimming to school. So when she arrives, Mr. Grouper has a surprise for all them. They’ll be taking a field trip to the farm and the city to pick up cones to put on the race track, and they’ll be able to participate in the race, too!
Thundercats (DS)
Posted on November 1st, 2012 by
As a child of the 80’s, most of the cartoons I watched as a kid had toys tied in with them. So basically we were watching 30 minute commercials back then. Girls had Strawberry Shortcake, My Little Pony, and Care Bears. Boys had stuff like Transformers and He-Man. If any of these currently sound familiar, it’s because they’re still around today, in new forms for younger generations to enjoy. There were many other 80’s toy and cartoon lines that didn’t quite reach the notoriety of stuff like Transformers, but some got real close. One of those that rode the coattails of the popularity and themes of He-Man was Thundercats. I was never into Thundercats myself (I was more of a Transformers man), but I do remember the old cartoon and many of the kids in my third grade class had Thundercats lunchboxes that year. Now, Cartoon Network has an updated remake of the Thundercats cartoon, and you can enjoy all the adventures of Lion-O and friends on the Nintendo DS.

Cary’s Super Bowl Commercial Party!
Posted on February 6th, 2012 by
Well it’s time once again to give my play by play of the Super Bowl…commercials. I love commercials! And not just ones on the Super Bowl, they fascinate me on regular TV, too. Always have. When I was a kid, the Christmas commercials they played during the Macy’s Parade always put me in the spirit. And the only reason why I watched that dumb American Gladiators show back in the 90’s was because it was sponsored by Nintendo, and I wanted to see the newest SNES ads. So let’s see what commercials I liked at this year’s game!

The All-Star Toons of Nicktoons MLB
Posted on September 22nd, 2011 by
Recently I wrote a review of Nicktoons MLB, a new baseball game featuring real MLB players and Nicktoons stars. But since I like cartoons so much, I wanted to write a separate blog featuring all the Nickelodeon characters found in MLB, as well as some of my favorite Nicktoons. Kind of like what I did with Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion. So get your peanuts and hot dogs ready as we look at all the characters in Nicktoons MLB. At least the toons anyway, I’m not going into all the real MLB players in the game!
The Characters of Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion (3DS)
Posted on July 9th, 2011 by
I hate giving games a bad review. I really do. Anyone who’s read my reviews can tell. Even if a game is mediocre, as long as it’s playable I’ll try and look at the good in the game as much as I can. That’s why it pains me to say that Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion for 3DS is the worst game I’ve played this year so far. But since I still like a lot of the characters in the game, I’m going to write a blog about them anyway.
Charlie Brown on ICE!
Posted on December 28th, 2010 by
The Gaylord Texan is a huge hotel in Grapevine, TX (a suburb of Dallas). Every year they have an ice sculpture exhibit, and this year it featured the TV favorite A Charlie Brown Christmas. I know it’s a little late to do anything Christmas-ey, but we decided to go to it after Christmas during the day when I was off work so it would be less crowded. It was pretty amazing, and I took a bunch of pictures. Click and read on to see them!
