Ham4Ham

Posted on by flivster

Have you ever heard of Hamilton The American Musical? It’s the hardest Broadway musical to get tickets to, the most revolutionary (I’ll explain that part later! 😛 ) musical of all time, and has the best songs ever!

Lin-Manuel Miranda wrote and stars in this musical about our youngest founding father. It is also about the American Revolution (see, revolutionary) from Alexander Hamilton’s point of view. Hamilton is not just any musical, it has a hip-hop, rap, pop, and Broadway styled soundtrack.

I was lucky enough to see the show on Broadway and am completely obsessed with Hamilton. Once you listen to the soundtrack, you will be too! The wonderful and incredibly talented cast makes videos called Ham4Ham that are hilarious. Some of the videos feature an actor(s) in the show who sing someone else’s songs or does their impression. They are really fun to watch. If you scroll down to the bottom of this review, I have included my favorite Ham4Ham video.

I love that the cast cares about the show so much, and that they find time to make these videos. It demonstrates their passion for the musical and that they are real people like you and me.

The Ham4Ham videos get a five star rating.

 

Gravity Falls

Posted on by flivster

image.jpegGravity Falls was a Disney cartoon about the Pines twins who are sent to live with their Grunkle Stan for the summer in the mysterious town of Gravity Falls. They uncover the secrets of the town while making great friends and powerful enemies. The show also had lots of very funny jokes and references. The creator, Alex Hirsch, hid codes throughout the series for fans to find. There were Gravity Falls theories everywhere! The last amazing episode was in February, and some of the theories proved to be true.

I love this series  for its humor, characters, and plot. There were very funny jokes and, yes, funny products in the show, such as Chipackers, The Chip Flavored Crackers. All the characters had their own personality from Soos to Wendy to Toby Determined. There were many plot twists and codes to help predict the plot twists throughout the series. Alex Hirsch and his crew thought it out very carefully, and if you look it up, they have many funny stories to tell. I give Gravity Falls a five star rating. I have nothing bad to say.

Good Mythical Morning is a YouTube channel that does things, (“So you don’t have to!”) such as eating the Carolina Reaper (the world’s hottest pepper), eating a pine bark ice cream sandwich, and a bowl of fish eyeball jello. As of February 25, 2016 they have exactly 9,385,861 subscribers. I give Good Mythical Morning a five star rating. If you want a good laugh every Monday – Friday, I suggest you watch Good Mythical Morning!

How It Should Have Ended™(HISHE)

I have to say, I am very critical about YouTube channels, but HISHE is one of my favorites. How It Should Have Ended videos are hilarious animated cartoons about how a movie should’ve ended (the name pretty much explains it). They are not offensive to the movie. HISHE also has a children’s channel called HISHE Kids. That channel makes videos called Fixed Fairy Tales, where they -um- fix fairy tales (again, the name explains it). The Fixed Fairy Tales are just as (or if not, even more) hilarious as the How It Should Have Ended. If you have not ever seen a HISHE video, I recommend that you see one. I give HISHE a five star rating, because not only do they have a hilarious adult channel, they also have an equally amazing channel for kids. Before you go, I have written a spoem (a sentence/acrostic poem whose first letters spell a word that the sentence is about) about HISHE.
