No Ordinary Family

Last night was the pilot episode for ABC- No Ordinary Family. Being the geek that I am I had to watch, even giving up NCIS.  Now I have not watch any show on ABC in Some time because nothing has looked good. I believe the last show i watch on a regular  base was Lois and Clark. 

Now the main cast I loved.

Michael Chiklis MySpace MTV Tower During Comic iovLeKzrWPRl

Michael Chiklis Coming from “the shield” and “fanatic four” comes out as the out of place dad feeling like the world is passing him by. The family is breaking up right in front of his eyes and all he wants to do is get his family back on track.   

Julie Benz Coming from the hit show “Dexter”, Where she died, Plays the hard working mom wow only goal in life is to climb the leader.

The Show started with Jim Powell (Michael Chiklis) wanting the family to go with Stephanie Powell (Julie Benz) on vacation/work trip. After a plane crash Jim finds that he is super strong. Stephanie, having no time finds that she can run at the speed of sound.  They have 2 children a girl and a boy. the girl can read minds and the boy finds that he has vast intelligence

As i watched this show i find myself liking it more and more and I was also thinking about after it was over. I could really relate with the dad in so many ways. That was one of the biggest things for me to find in a show. 

I am hoping for the best with this show because it looks to be a great family show. I will have to turn off NCIS for another week to see what happens next.  Overall I give the show a 8 out of 10.

A Work in the Works

So i have decided to work on a story, or book, or whatever you want to call it.  I have this idea for what could be a 3 book series and i am just going to go for it. 

I know 3 people in my life that has wrote books and i have a lot of stories in my head and i would like to write them down. i don’t know if it will be good and i not looking to be some big name but i have always wanted to do this. 

about a year ago i sit in on a writing workshop done by John Ostrander (comic book) and i really took a lot of what he said to heart. one of the things he said was to not show anyone what your working on until your done.  so i have decided that i am not going to talk about the story or show anyone until i am done, so please don’t ask what it’s about.  i do ask that you just keep me in your prayers in this time.  thank you and God bless.
