HATS HOODIES KICKS

This post is about what Hats Hoodies Kicks is feelin' on TV right now. Pretty much what we're feeling at the time. Marko is going to shed some light on his current top 5 TV shows and Jumz is going to also. Honestly, I think we all know what #1 is going to be.

Marko's Top 5 TV Shows:

#5 - King Of Queens: I know this show is fairly new, but it has to be up there for me. The cast of characters is so varied, but play off each other really well. I find something to laugh at in every episode. Doug and Carrie are almost total opposites but yet are a perfect match for each other. The writers do such a good job of varying the story lines revolving around all the actors that you don't get bored no matter how many episodes you watch. Plus Jerry Stiller is in it and he’s a killer of an actor (formerly on Seinfeld as Frank Constanza).

#4 - The Simpsons: I really didn’t want to put this in my top 5, but I gave it a thought and I had to. When everyone was little, they watched this show as it was funny and entertaining. Known as "Our Favourite Family" the show has been running for over 20 years and still going on strong. The Simpsons has piled over 400 episodes, 23 Emmy awards and even jumped to silver screen in 2007 with “The Simpsons Movie”. As much as I don’t watch it anymore I used to watch it as a kid so credit has to be given when it’s due.

#3 - Married With Children: I always hear people say this show is not funny. After all, what's funny about a shoe salesman, his wife and their kids who seem incurious about everything. Yet somehow, largely because of the acting (by Ed O'Neill and Katey Sagal) and the crazy situations, the show kept viewers diverted for ten years, tells you something.

#2 - The Sopranos: This award winning HBO series is sure to please anyone that appreciates a strong story with convincing characters, and never leaves anyone disappointed. The series has an excellent cast; James Gandolfini is obviously the center of the show playing as Tony Soprano. I’ve watched it and I got disappointed when the weekly 60 minutes has run its course, you are always left wanting more. One thing though be warned, the show is addictive.

#1 - Seinfeld: Jerry, George, Elaine and Kramer provided literally hours and hours of water-cooler talk. Although it was a show essentially about "nothing" - the daily lives and mishaps of four friends, it was absolutely unique in its execution. There should be no doubt in anyone's mind why Seinfeld is master of this domain. The sitcom reinvented the genre, pushed the envelope at every opportunity. When a series finale gets 70 million viewers just in the United States, that’s doing work.

Jumz' Top 5 TV Shows:

#5 - The Weekenders: I got to add some cartoons in this bitch. Yes I'm 20 years old, but I still got a little kid in me. The Weekenders kind of remind me of my friends and I. Pure Chillin'! Doing that same shit together without getting tired of it. It's pretty jokes too. I feel like its a show not only for kids, but adults too. I don't know why though. The cast seems kind of mature for their age. Good show.

#4 - Score Tonight: Sports. Every real man needs a little sports in their life and what a great way to watch some sports with a little humour to go along with it. Every Tuesday, Sid and Tim entertain me with the sports I need to consume. Cabbie On The Street is hilarious as well. Cabbie is probably one of the best reporters right now with his unique antics. Also, the plays of the week are nasty with a little humour on the side.

#3 - Rob & Big: Rob & Big is probably one of the funniest reality TV shows ever. It's too bad that they stopped after season 3. Even though they stopped showing it on TV, I always catch myself watching it on Rogers On Demand or even on Youtube. DO WORK!

#2 - Iron Chef America: Bobby Flay the KING!! Straight up, Bobby Flay is my favourite Iron Chef on the show. I love watching him on the show displaying his NYC style of cooking. I don't mind watching some Japanese style with Morimoto, Italian style with Mario Batali, or a little Cat Cora. But I have to say that Chef Flay is SICK!

#1 - Sienfeld: Here we are at #1. SIENFELD! At this moment, I catch myself watching a lot of Sienfeld on TVTropolis, Fox, or wherever. I guess I can blame my girl for that =D. Jerry Sienfeld is hilarious with his unique style of comedy and production. I think that whole Cast is amazing and it's one of the best shows ever.
