How I can't watch 90s TV shows online.

So today I was feeling nostalgic.  For some reason, The Amanda Show popped into my head (probably since I watched 'She's the Man' the other day), and I wanted to watch some re-runs.  First I check Hulu, and it forwarded me to Nick.com.  "Sweet!", I thought.  But no, it was one segment of Moody's Point.  So next I went to YouTube.  I found an account that had uploaded the entire first season, with each episode split into 3 parts.  Success....right?  Nope, Viacom (the company that owns Nickelodeon, CBS, etc...) requested that YouTube remove the first part of every episode.  Not the 2nd and 3rd parts, just the 1st.  Pardon my French, but that was a bitch move.  If they're never going to air the episodes again, why not allow them to be posted online somewhere?


P.S.- If anyone knows where I can watch them online, TELL ME.
P.P.S- Has anyone heard from Amanda Bynes lately?

Streaming advertisements.

So I have Spotify, right?  If you don't know what that is, it's unlimited streaming music, but you choose exact songs. Well of course, nothing in life is free, so there are ads.  Normally not a problem.  I think it's fair to have to listen to a 10 second ad every once and a while.  But what I don't like: when you have to wait for the ad to load.  Lumped into this same category is interactive ads.  I was watching Hulu, and the advertiser for the show I was watching was Tide.  Normally during an ad, I open up Facebook until it's done.  I sat there for 2 minutes of no sound before switching back only to realize that I needed to choose which Tide ad I wanted to watch. Yoga Pants or White Shoes?  Let's get serious here.  No one cares that much about ads that they would choose one over the other.  Furthermore, I hate Flash Ads with sound that start playing automatically.  They scare the crap out of me half the time.
