Daddy Mojo watches TV: Up All Night

Up All Night is a new sitcom on NBC.  It’s described as an irreverent look at modern parenthood, with the mom going back to work and dad staying at home to care for their young girl.   Any show with a stay-at-home dad character can’t be all bad, so a real stay-at-home dad (with Mojo!) gave the pilot episode a try.

Dad spends a night in the mancave: Unknown

Sometimes an actor builds up such good will with their audience that they’re able to star in trite on wheels, but people will still see it and like it.  Maybe they won’t ‘like it’, but they’re not going to go out and trash it, usually.  Unknown tries to bank on this characteristic that exudes from Liam Neeson.

Dad spends a night in the mancave: Battle: Los Angeles

It’s summer, 70 degrees & 40% humidity at night and your child, boss, spouse or (insert choice noun of bothering thing here) has been frustrating you all day.  All you want to do is watch a quality to semi-not so bad movie to relax your over heated self.  Such was the case with us recently when Battle: Los Angeles found its way to our home.

Dad spends a (family) night in the Mancave: Field of Vision

Normally dad spends a night in the mancave by himself watching typical guy movies that the estrogen set find boring or juvenile.   However, on this occasion we were asked to preview Field of Vision.  Field of Vision is the latest entry into Family Movie Night on NBC.  It airs June 11 at 8:00 EST and is sponsored by Wal-Mart and P&G.

Dad spends a day in the mancave: The Mechanic & Ong Bak 3

A day in the mancave is a curse and a blessing.  On the positive side it can mean that dad has earned a truly lazy day to sit on the sofa, eat bacon and watch utter garbage without any guilt from camp estrogen.  On the negative side it can mean that dad is sick and has to lie on the sofa while watching utter garbage and relying on help from camp estrogen. Continue reading Dad spends a day in the mancave: The Mechanic & Ong Bak 3

Dad spends a night in the man cave: The Revenge

Mom had a business trip to visit one of her clients.  While dad certainly misses his bride for the night, he would also welcome some time in the man cave.   This trip had been announced for a couple weeks and not so secretly, dad had been making a man cave short list of movies to watch.  Mom tried to help by saying that dad could watch two movies in one night.  However, in reality, the short list was actually a real list of short actors in movies he’d wanted to see.

Dad spends a night in the man cave: With a vengeance

It was a bonus night in the man cave for dad tonight.  Mom had to attend a birthday party for a child and dad got to put Toddler Mojo to bed.  In our eyes we drew the long straw because that meant that we could rent a man cave movie.

We had wanted to see Predators for a while; it’s a great character that was maligned through a series of alien mash ups and hammy acting by Danny Glover. The first Predator was great.  It’s a classic that is arguably Arnold’s best movie.  Considering that most of his movies stink up a sulfur plant that is saying something.
