Natasha Henstridge

‘Family Guy’ was launched in 1999 and makes its way till these days. It has the bunch of the best characters ever and quite wittily represents the American culture. The whole world likes these series. So why shouldn’t we?

‘Scrubs’ is another hospital TV sitcom. But unlike the rest it has a good pinch of humour. Viewers love following all the events happening to the main characters played by Zach Braff, Sarah Chalke, Donald Faison and Neil Flynn.

Who doesn’t know ‘Sex and the City’? Anyone knows ‘Sex and the City’! Don’t object, if you’re a girl, you’ve associated yourself with some of the heroines. This TV sitcom is the true phenomenon in culture, fashion and women’s social life. Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon became icons that gave birth to millions of copycats. It’s one of the best series ever. Nothing left to say.

How can we do without ‘South Park’? Its brutal, vicious, malicious, sharp and just humour has won us all at once and we don’t know what to do when another season runs out and end up by re-watching the old episodes! What is more, despite the cruel mockery regarding stars, the series got lots of celebrity fans which took part in voice acting, namely George Clooney, Jennifer Aniston, Richard Belzer, Natasha Henstridge including bands Radiohead and Korn.

It won’t be an exaggeration to say that ‘Friends’ is the best comedy TV sitcom. Rachel, Monica, Phoebe, Joey, Chandler and Ross have become members of our families. And it was so painful to let them go when the show ended… It is left only to hope that the characters are doing fine.

Finally, I couldn’t do without ‘The Simpsons’ that according to numerous TV sitcom tops is the best series on television. Well, it is very likely they really are. It is pointless to say compliments to this reckless yellow-skin family. We just love them.

And we love TV sitcoms. So don’t resist it!

Failure to Launch

Of course, it’s about love. But not the kind of love that happens between two people suddenly and unpredictably. Here we have something totally different. On the one hand, one of the partners looks for love while another makes everything possible to make another person fall in love with her as it is her job. Matthew McConaughey in “Failure to Launch” is a 35-year old bachelorTripp still living with his parents. He is quite satisfied with his liaisons with women until it comes to getting his parents acquainted with them. But the thing is his parents are so fed up with their son that all they want is to get rid of him.

The leading woman character Paula was played by Sarah Jessica Parker. The actors of “Failure to Launch” were chosen very precisely. It is hard to imagine Brooke Shields, Reese Witherspoon or Tori Spelling as Paula, however one of them could be there, if they wouldn’t turn down the role offer.

Overall the plot of “Failure to Launch” is very original. It makes no surprise why the movie topped box offices in the USA of its first weekend making $90 million there and $128,406,887 worldwide.

All the events happening in the flick are totally unpredictable. It is full of jokes and humour that anyone can fall for. The situations the characters get into are truthful and anyone faces some in real life.

However, there were some minor slips. For example, a stuntman that was performing for McConaughey on the bike had a tattoo on his ankle which the leading actor hadn’t. Or a reflection of a person in the director’s chair on the water surface. Well, if you look scrutinizingly such moments are present in any movie. And it’s not what we watch films for, anyway.

Meanwhile, “Failure to Launch” is a movie with character and charisma which serves humor in a very effortless and easy way. Through the prism of humor character face real problems and find solutions for them. Watch this!
