Get the Domestic Adventurism mug.A hilarious sitcom starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
The show was about a middle-aged divorced woman named Christine Campbell. She is known as "Old Christine" because her ex-husband Richard's new girlfriend also happens to be named Christine (she is known as "New Christine" because of this). Old Christine lives with her son Richie and her younger brother Matthew. She owns a gym with her best friend Barb. She sends her son Ritchie to a fancy private school and frequently has to deal with the school's two "Meanie Moms" (two rich, blonde, queen-bee moms who always look down on Old Christine).
Old Christine is extremely dumb. For example, she prides herself in being politically active, but her idea of political activism is voting on American Idol. Similarly, she often forgets basic information about herself, such as her age. Richard and New Christine are usually more intelligent than her, but both of them have their moments of stupidity too. Barb and Matthew are usually the voices of reason, but even they have issues.
At first, the show was great. It received nine Emmy nominations and won an Emmy in its first season. By the fifth season, however, the show had degenerated, so it was cancelled.

It's too bad The New Adventures of Old Christine got cancelled. It was really good up until season 5.

Get the The New Adventures of Old Christine mug.Animated series featuring Jackie Chan in a series of fictional adventures, aided by his fictious neice Jade Chan and his uncle "Uncle", he fights the forces of evil and collects various artifacts over various seasons to prevent them falling into cruel hands.
The highly respected series took a downward spiral in Season Three when the plots were all re-hashed and Jade became an annoying bitch.

Get the The Grim Adventures Of Billy and Mandy mug.One of the last good cartoons for Cartoon Network, created by Maxwell Atoms. It stars three main characters: Billy, a total moron who has an IQ of -17. Has a big red nose, a baseball cap, and a large fear of clowns. Mandy is an intelligent but very sadistic girl, and rarely shows any emotion other than anger and boredom. She can permanently scar someone just by looking at them. Grim, who is a skeleton that reaps souls, and got the job in middle school. He is around 137,000 years old, and speaks in a Jamaican accent. An interesting fact is that both Mandy and Grim lack noses, but Billy makes it up with his huge nose.
The plot starts at Billy's house, and Billy's hamster Mr. Snuggles has it's 12th birthday. The Grim Reaper then comes to reap the hamster's soul, but is surprised at the total lack of fear from both Billy and Mandy. Mandy then bets the hamster's soul. If they won a game of limbo against grim, they would be able to keep the soul, and Grim would have to be their best friend forever (literally). If Grim wins however, he takes it. They proceed in the game, and Mandy cheats by distracting Grim with the hamster as he's limboing. Grim is then stuck with being their best friend forever, and this is how the show starts.
It was originally a part of a two part mini series, Grim and Evil, where it was paired with a show called "Evil Con Carne". They both eventually split into two different shows. Evil Con Carne was unfairly canceled early, and the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy became a very popular show on the channel. Some Evil Con Carne characters even made cameo appearances in the show.
It was canceled in late 2007.
