Entertainment Weekly is reporting that ABC, who abandoned Saturday mornings entirely this season, will pay tribute to Schoolhouse Rock, one of the many commercial break shorts for my youth. Scheduled for September 7th, they plan to rank the best of the songs. And the internet will complain their choices weren’t higher or on the list right after.

I know Linkara has a new, and supercool, logo for both shows but unless I get some free time you’re getting this one. It still works.
This week we have Linkara’s three-part look at Power Rangers: Mystic Force, a show that I haven’t actually watched for reasons I’ll get into tomorrow. But because I haven’t watched it I won’t have a lot to say. One of the things I try to do is discuss the original Sentai, which I usually haven’t seen either. This round we have a bonus treat courtesy of EZ Rider and this show, Toku Time, who recently just launched a brand new website. With his permission I bring you the full review of Mahou Sentai Magiranger (translated as Magic Team Magical Ranger according to Super Sentai.com), the precursor to Mystic Force, which has some of the same ideas, and some different ones.

Marvel’s Original Sin/Sins event thing is confusing. Both “Sins” and “Sin” are being used as different names of the same event. Who thought that was a good idea. However, fellow Friday Night Fighter Brian Snell of Slay Monstrobot Of The Deep has found a far greater sin, as the writer of this chapter ruins not only the original Nick Fury (in favor of the new model, that resembles Samuel L. Jackson like the Ultimate universe) but Dum Dum Dugan as well. It’s character assassination at it’s worst.
