Personality Of Weirdness

 FEAR THE WALKING DEAD. Episode: WELCOME TO THE CLUB. This time it was Alicia Clark & Victor Strand who were put to the test by Virginia. How to get rid of those zombies inside the warehouse? Many have tried and failed but Victor & Alicia found it easy way out. When zombies are "cleared" like animals (cattle, sheep and goats) from the barn out, one by one in the slaughter gate. It's about skills and that also made Morgan Jones attained that status. By the way, Lennie James directed this episode "Welcome To The Club." Who should learn the skills? Charlie and the sister of Virginia. Alicia Clark has earned her own skills in this series. However, Virginia is only interested in Victor Strand (Colman Domingo). Victor gave the necklace to Alicia and said that "he wants somebody who can look at him eye to eye."  WEIRDO! What he meant by that? Just sing Radiohead's song. Ha ha ha!

The HOUSE, MD also returns to its regular time slot. It's been a marathon series. Two episodes where Dr. House showed some feeling of remorse. First, when he was trapped inside a "contagion" room beside a dying man who contracted that viral smallpox. It turned out that the "allergy causing death" was viral and deadly to one patient only because of his open wound. It seems that the other resident doctor has better vision than most of them unlike other doctors who are so quick to judge and bluntly have that quick diagnostic report faster than the diagnostic of symptoms. Sure, it is always necessary to check vital signs and sharp vision on what you can SEE, perceive to not misdiagnose and have that unnecessary operation AND MEDICAL PROCEDURE. Why DRUGS or PRESCRIPTION MEDICINES do not work properly anymore? Are they all placebo or just plain FAKE DRUGS?

There was that operation already on-going in one episode when a woman who was in distress thought to have been abused and showing signs of mental disorder. For whatever reason, a lobotomy is about to happen. Dr. House already drilled her head and the blood coming out from her head when one doctor told him to stop and Dr. House stopped. I think her BP is too high and stroke might happen if they continued the operation. This is the weirdest of all operation. What will happen next? More dialogues here & there while the patient was left hanging for her life waiting for the doctors/surgeon's next move. Later on before the episode ends, the patient survive but experienced hallucination, illusion and delusion, her vision is worst than ever and have to explain to her husband that she has schizophrenia. She has dual personality? A world of her own, seeing unusual scenes within normal boundaries and how you can treat those patients having weird perceptions of everything. If its genetic there is nothing that you can do. No cure. If the operation on her head was a contributor for additional disorder aside from other malady then you can sue the doctors. Or the medication is the cause of such disorder then you have to consult a lawyer and have a thorough research on how many people are suffering from such disorder caused by certain medication and that may lead to class action lawsuit.

Did you know that too many writers have those disorder and how they put use their talent to proper use is through the medium sort of  fantasy, FICTION AND SLASHER NOVELS & MOVIES.They have wild imaginations, only them they can fathom at first but when used in the movie industry makes it more believable that there is something beyond their hidden talent that are strange but very useful in such a way that you or everyone can learn from them. Abstract in many forms is an art. 3D animation is by product of  such hidden talent including fractal imagery. I think it's more of a skill than a disorder. Too many normals that are so boring nowadays that people with schizophrenia turnout to be cool and fun to be with. I wonder how you will react with human beings having and suffering from multiple personality? Watch James McAvoy in his portrayal of having 24 multiple personalities in the movie GLASS.

In much later episodes, Dr. House encountered  those illusions, hallucinations and delusion that's why he asked the help of a psychiatrist and was having treatment at the mental hospital. He saw dead people, he was functioning at the low level of his life, he was very depressed, he was feeling unloved and how many times he committed suicides? Just by taking prescription drugs taking them like a cocktail as if it is his tic tac pills enough for him to get over dose and when he can no longer take the pain he electrocuted himself. He survived. Do you think he should practice medicine? He continued to work when he should have been fired or he should have quit but because he had a relationship with Lisa then probably it's whom you know what you know theory best applied to such situation. Anyway, Dr HOUSE is the lead character of this medical series and HOUSE is entitled HOUSE because the STORY revolves around him and the other doctors: Dr. Wilson, Dr. Chase, Dr. Foreman and other female doctors are just flavor of the icing to his cake.

TV SERIES

 Whew! No HOUSE tv medical series today... i wonder why. lol. I was waiting for the next episodes. Darn it. I hope they didn't ban that series eh? LOL.

Tonight's the night finale sort of HWARANG. Waaaahhhh!!!! I wanna cry. It was one of my favorites Korean drama/action series and it will end tonight. Ji Dwi ascended to the throne as King Jinhyeung and was supported wholeheartedly by the Hwarang and the enemy Yongshe was taken out from the Kingdom of Silla for his wrongdoings including the lady-in-waiting who found to be a traitor serving tea with poison for the queen of Silla. Good that Dog Bird finally decided and accepted his fate not to compete with King Jinhyeung, and instead had the love of his life Ahro by his side and King Jinhyeung heartbroken by their relationship cannot untie the knots would just settle to be the king and have the hwarang by his side instead. Clever! I don't know if that's the happy ending for the many viewers worthy of being a real happy end? Be the judge and watch HWARANG series  until it ends.

ANG SA IYO AY AKIN (Filipino drama series). Ellice had a vehicular accident and survived however as soon as he was out of the hospital, she decided to return to her work at her own company to the surprise of Marissa Pineda and all the employees of the company. A surprise meeting was held and Ellice emphasized that the financial anomaly happened during at the time when Marissa was working in behalf of Ellice who at that time, Ellice was recuperating from all the malady of miscarriage, then when she had her difficult labor, when Hope was terminally ill but miraculously recovered. Ellice looked furious, mad as hell that the company's financial burden happened when Marissa started working at her company and another third party was involved thus, Marissa is doing money laundering. However, shocked as everyone at the conference room, Marissa managed to cool down and asked Tuti her personal secretary to present or show her own documents that were already been checked by the BIR (Bureau of Internal Revenue), this time it was Ellice who was shocked and double shock when her own uncle (the former financial analyst-controller of the company whom Ellice fired from work) arrived at the meeting. Tonight's the night to find out what ever scandal is about to happen. ?

FEAR THE WALKING DEAD. The premier episode of this apocalyptic series for this season last Sunday: The End Is The New Beginning. I was unable to recognize Morgan Jones (as Lennie James). His beard is so thick and this episode is only meant for his survival. How he survived from zombies? The zombies kind of never want him at all. The zombies are not too hungry or he has immunity. What happened to Alicia Clark and the rest of the cast? In this episode, Morgan was being followed by a bounty hunter summoned by the tyrant Virginia. The hunted becomes the hunter and the bounty hunter's head was placed in the square box and that's what Virginia received in the middle of the road. Morgan Jones left the last scene with the horse owns by the stranger who died trying to protect him from the bounty hunter. There's not much cast of character here in FTWD but they have SWAT truck, horses and look at that huge boat, is that a boat or submarine on the shore? 

THE AMAZING RACE 2020 hosted by Phil Keoughan has started last Wednesday. From California to Trinidad & Tobago. One team was eliminated from that leg of the race.To be continued next week.

BIG BROTHER 22 ALL STARS. Memphis was evicted from BB HOUSE. The remaining contestants are Cody, Nicole, Christmas, and Enzo. Tyler joined the jury team. Kaysar had a clue on the next battle would be in the form of  a giant chessboard, a game he played before in BIG BROTHER: The Knight Moves.

TGIF. No Macgyver series. No movie to watch. Life goes on.

Too many reruns.

HOUSE OF HORROR

 I should have my afternoon nap yesterday but with HOUSE medical drama series taking a nap is an option. Why I like this medical drama series? It's WEIRD! It is a story of the Head of the Diagnostic Department of a hospital named Dr. Gregory House. His job is to make diagnosis, or diagnostic test on every patient that requires a medical diagnosis if other doctors find it hard to know what ails their patient even if they already been tested on their vital signs, bloodwork, urine test, glucose test, X-rays, all medical tests needed to find out what really is wrong with the patient and sometimes the last resort is the MRI scanning of the whole body and head that leads to OPERATION to save the patients. Do you know what the MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) was originally used for? It was used for the mummies. It was once used for dead people and for scanning dinosaur bones and skeletons. To have them used for any living human being is a matter of  whether it is necessary to use them for "living human beings." You can now use that MRI but with certain caution: is it necessary? Is it the last resort to save a dying person? Are you alert and attentive when you are scanning the patient or you keep on chatting with another doctor and you forget the time that you are cooking the patient in the MRI. MRI is a better version of microwave oven. Why not all the doctors & nurses have that MRI test before they are subjected to work in hospitals? How'd you feel? I want to know how everyone feels?

However, when everything has failed to determine the problem, the "operation" leads to 1001 ways to die. Or 101 ways to kill the patient. OMG! GROSS! The HOUSE series should be entitled HOUSE OF HORROR. Doctors were asked to investigate on the patient's house without warrant as if those doctors are NCIS officers or FBI agents. ? This medical series HOUSE is, you don't want doctors and nurses to watch them and give them the idea of  purge. How to create medical doctors and nurses the feeling of empathy, apathy and compassion is to subject them into the training in war torn countries. They can feel that essence of personal survival: how to survive to be alive  and at the same time save human beings and thus lessen that god complex. Do you think it will work? IT WORKED. Most experienced surgeons are now gifted with some sense of  personal survival, saving their own life and saving others. Always think that the patient you have to cure and save maybe is your own. Patients have family and friends, so what you did to them can sometime haunt you back.

Why Dr. House is never been fired by the Hospital administrators despite of his lack of empathy for the patients? Connections seemed to be a factor. Or simply conspiracy theory that they thought Dr. House is a brilliant and knew too much as having the powers that be and his power of persuasion and influence proved more of a hassle since Dr. House was more experienced than those other doctors below his rank. I think HOUSE series is a product of fiction. Patients and their family always have the options of what to happen or the consent of any medical procedure is necessary with the patient & family's consent. If a patient opted for no operation or surgery to further the case then it's a NO. That's why every time before any surgery or operation there is a form of consent to be signed by both parties involved. However, in emergency cases that's not an option for the unconscious. ? There is always somebody out there doing the investigation. You wont know them so just better watch out and do your job properly. Have the conscience and if you don't have it then quit your job. Maybe being a doctor or nurse is not the right job for you. They could be ghosts or invisibles watching you right now. lol

There are natural born killers in any hospitals or medical clinic. So just watch for them. Who are these people? Are they assassins or mercy killers? During the Spanish Flu of 1918-1919, so many of those natural born killers infiltrated hospitals and communities and that led to World War II.

TV SERIES

 Tonight's the night for the return of the most sought after FEAR THE WALKING DEAD on AMC Channel. Why only now? Why they let their fans waited that long to watch the continuation of this one of a kind apocalyptic saga?

The last episode of this series was shown sometime in 2019. The last scene featured on the last episode: Morgan was trying hard to survive and was left alone outside the worn-out chapel and group of walking zombies are about to approach him. While the rest of the survivalist friends of him were taken by force by a female tyrant. How a wounded Morgan able to survive alone surrounded with those zombies? That's the next episode we're about to see in tonight's episode. To survive or not?

-------------------------------------

HWARANG. Finally, Ji Dwi revealed himself as King Jinhyeung (played by Korean actor/singer Park Hyung Sik or Hyungsik) to the surprise of all those old ministers and to include the queen's surprise reaction...what's up for stake this time other than punish the old master Yongshe of his evil wrongdoings of corruption and masterminding the death (epidemic) of many impoverished people in Silla. Ahro was hit by an assassin's arrow. Don't worry, she survived. Only few episodes left to watch. sayang! Is there any other Korean dramedy series (drama+comedy) with Park Hyungsik as lead actor?

--------------------------------------

ANG SA IYO AY AKIN. Marissa (played by Jodi Sta. Maria) was confronted by Gabriel (played by Sam Milby) for not able to keep their  secret to her mother Luciana (played by Maricel Soriano). To add extra drama, Madam joined the bandwagon of Ellice (played by Izza Calzado) and want to invest in her company to the surprise of Marissa who worked with the Madam who is the leader of an organization (?).  In the last episode, Ellice was about to meet somebody and on the way to the meeting place, while Marissa and her driver followed her to that "destination unknown."  Getting intense. TO BE CONTINUED.

The Old & The New

 Same old strategy, same old names, so worn out in a brand new television series? Nah. Bah, humbug!! Hidden game plan for sports? So why use the same old names? BORING!

Yeah, that's what makes some new tv series that wont last. Sorry.

Because of that, it's best to look forward to the next episodes of  FEAR THE WALKING DEAD.

The WALKING DEAD had its season finale last Sunday. It's refreshing to see the return of MAGGIE GREENE saving Father Gabriel though. What a great entrance. The return of NEW TWD next season is? 

I don't know. I don't wanna know anymore. Let it just be unpredictable.

---------------------------

Last night, we watched the old movie BATTERIES NOT INCLUDED. Something strange and unusual for kids to watch. It's about "aliens" in the form of mini-robots made from metals derived from household appliances and these metallic creatures are helpful with group of seniors, starving artist and a pregnant woman stranded in an old building ready for demolition. Recommended for viewers who love science-fiction movies such as E.T., WALL E, Star trek & Star Wars. 

--------------------------

HWARANG. The five of the best of hwarang  organized themselves in disguised and penetrated into master Yongshe's territory and stolen sacks of  medical supply for the victims of the epidemic. Somehow, Yongshe's son had sway his loyalty to the hwarang. Ahro was taken to Silla's kingdom to become one of the queen's wonhwa to the dismay of Dogbird who asked help from his (stricken polio victim) father who was once Silla's prince.

--------------------------

ANG SA IYO AY AKIN. Filipino drama series at TFC. Ellice already found out that Gabriel is the father of baby Jacob based from the paternity test and information she read from the desk of a careless registrar's office secretary. She confronted her bestfriend Marissa in a very "civilized manner" (indirectly) and uttered some sort of warning. At the office of Cenidoza owned by Ellice, Marissa's secretary happened to have seen the hidden device under Marissa's office desk, Marissa and her secretary decided to keep on pretending that they don't know that they are being listened to or being spied on. Luciana, confronted her daughter when she returned home asking if Gabriel is the father of Jacob which she said yes, and her own mother slapped  her face. She confided the incident to her secretary. The next day, Marissa was surprised when Ellice came to the office together with her husband and said she will begin to work again after all it was her company where she'll be working. She doesn't want to miss the fun between them. The dialogues in this new television series are remarkably stunning. They are good actors and actresses. Looks like they are being handled really well by the director, camera men and script writers. Cool! Bongga!! Every dialogue given to Ellice & Marissa are sharp and almost about to slap each other. I mean, sige magsampalan kayo pleaseeeee! Ahahahaha! j/k

-------------------------------

BIG BROTHER 22 - ALL STARS. Cody once again won the HOH and nominated Tyler & Christmas for eviction. What?? Uhm, you know now that Cody was eyeing on Nicole for the final 2, so that maybe is the reason why. Tyler & Christmas will have to battle in the POV game to save themselves from eviction.

Who's the BEST FINAL 2? It would be challenging if TYLER & CODY battle for the final two.

-----------------------------------

HOUSE. There is something weird and wonderful in this old reruns of  HOUSE television series. Some of the stories are almost X FILES because of its mystery (yeah mysterious sort of), the cast of characters are somewhat not worn out or just that each character had hidden talent, had secrets and undiscovered aim, agenda and purpose in life.  Wait till you watch episodes: LOCKDOWN, BLACK HOLE, ONE ROOM, ONE NIGHT. You have this incredible, outrageous, eccentric human doctor HOUSE who is also experiencing pain and he is not acting as godlike because he needs meds more than ever and his diagnosis for every patient needs assurance from the rest of other doctors such as Dr. WILSON, Dr. CHASE, Dr. FOREMAN, Dr. CAMERON. That's what happened in Hospitals? Why not one doctor has the right and responsibility to his own doing of prescribing meds and the treatment of a patient. Maybe because if the diagnosis is for terminally patient then a group of doctors and surgeons are called to discuss the preventative measures to combat such illness or whatever disease the patient is suffering. 

Just like this 2020 PANDEMIC wherein the whole world is in "panic" and the control of such pandemic still is crucial and everyday doctors, specialists are called to have their daily report on TV NEWS NETWORK. It's on and on, almost like replays, it's suffocating to hear them about their daily rants but what else can you do? They can talk and talk, answer to questions and they never seem to fade away. They never get tired and they never get sick. iRobot. ? I don't know. When it gets too tiring and depressing for you to listen to the day to day pandemic measures CHANGE CHANNELS of your TV and watch some happy news, entertaining television shows and movies. Watch stand - up COMEDY SHOWS. Be happy.

----------------------------

THE AMAZING RACE new season will start this month of October 2020.

TV Series & A Movie

 Triple eviction happened in one night in BIG BROTHER 22 ALL STARS. Kevin was evicted! We all knew that's gonna happen and it happened. Next, David was evicted. Dani was evicted too. Tyler won the HOH & POV. Then next game, Cody won the HOH & POV.  Whom he will evict from BB House? Find it out tonight at Global Channel.

By the way, tonight's the night for the return of the season finale of THE WALKING DEAD. 

I missed Lauren Cohan (Maggie Greene), so this is the return of the returns. Wow! So exciting! I am truly excited. 

Next, THE WORLD BEYOND, also a zombie apocalyptic war premieres tonight. Group of youngsters in search for their parents, search for food and to survive from the apocalypse? It could be chaotic. 

HWARANG. Continuation of episodes from last week: The hwarang was able to escape from the wrath of  Bieksa's prince who was wounded from the duel between him and Dogbird. They were about at the crossroads when suddenly the prince and his men tried to attack them, some of the poor people got killed, Choi Minho got hit with an arrow and they were surrounded already when suddenly the rest of the hwarang arrived right in time to protect them. The hwarang master talked to the prince of Bieksa and they both called it quits so the enemies left them, besides they were outnumbered. At Silla's kingdom, Dogbird was summoned by the queen and told him that since he pretended to be the king of Silla, taking the power from his own son, he must  at least continue his own pretension and she revelaed to Dogbird that she will take Ahro with her to her palace to be sworn in as wonhwa together with the princess. Dogbird was mad and furious. The true real king Jinhyueng can't wallow in frustrations because he accepted his own fate just as he thought he is such a coward or just being obedient to his queen mother. Anyway, the princess somehow was able to discern what was happening to his brother who was hidden from her for such a very long time. In another province, the epidemic already spread out quickly and Master Anjie cannot cure them because of lack of medicines and other resources. It turned out that the villain Master Yongshe had masterminded of hiding all the resources from everyone. That night, while Dogbird was attacked by black ninjas summoned by Yongshe, while Ji Dwi attacked the old Yongshe and warned him of his wrongdoings. Ji Dwi didn't kill the old man so the next episode would be ???? What could be happening in the next episode? TO BE CONTINUED.

ANTIVIRAL the movie. Something really strange. Grotesque! It's my first time to see a movie so viral. It was an old movie actually. Story: A famous celebrity got infected with virus. However, instead of having negative feedback and negative propaganda the female celebrity became more popular than ever and almost everyone wants to buy anything and everything about her including the tainted blood. For what? You will only find out at the final scene of the movie why. I almost vomit from what Syd is up to. Crazy! Yeah people, modern vampires and cannibalistic attitude is GROSS!
