Clearly Shocking

Robin Hood Logo I just finished S3 of Robin Hood, and though there are rumors that it will continue, I’m not so sure. The spirit of Robin Hood, as seen in the chant, “We are Robin Hood!” will perhaps always live on, but with so many changes, it will scarcely feel like the same show. I don’t want to give away too much of what happens, but WOW.

I am able to watch such excellent shows in pure luxury thanks to my new DVD player. I contemplated buying a Blu-Ray player, but really, now. Do I need a Blu-Ray when the last DVD I bought was, um, uh, RotK maybe? Hell no. So I went for the Philips 5590. I had read that it has a USB input that can read flash drives–no more burning discs. Awesome! I, however, wanted to be able to take it even further, so I kept reading. Sure enough, I was able to format the external HD my dad gave me so that it reads like a flash drive. I am now able to plug my pocket-sized 250GB external HD into my Divx loving DVD player and watch entire seasons of all my favorite shows with no waiting. I can also watch all our fanvids on the plasma. Niiiice. They hold up well in the conversion. I may never leave the house again.
