Modern Family: Season 6

"Connection Lost" is one of their best episodes ever, proving they have not jumped the shark.

Starbuck

French films usually irritate me. Not French Canadian films, apparently.

The Tale of Princess Kaguya

The moral being that life is to be lived? Or at least not squandered?
