Beethoven

Is an awesome composer. And Elizabeth Miles' "Tune Your Brain" series is also awesome. I regard what she says about music and mood with some skepticism: I think she gives it MORE credit for changing the brain than I'm comfortable with. (And because of the presence of the CD "Tune Your Brain® for Pregnancy and Childbirth: Listening for Two with Mozart and More"; "Music makes a bright start for baby and mom" guhhhhhh.)
HOWEVER, the music selections on the various CDs in the series rock my face. They're performed quite nicely indeed, and arranged thematically. Good work music.

Kim Possible: So the Drama

Was really quite good. I guessed the twist, but it still worked. The violence and fan service was upped a bit from the series, but nothing too extreme. Lots of funny, too, easily as sassy as any better KP episode, definitely back to its roots as Buffy-funny for the tweenie set.

A good show for the kids that the parents will also easily enjoy, instead of checking the time.

And...SPOILER ALERT....




























I asked a KP producer about three years ago about Kim and Ron being together. He said there was someone else, and there was. Several someones. And even Ron had a girlfriend, kinda.

But Ron and Kimmie finally got together, and it worked, and was not out of character for either of them. HOORAY!
Kim's mom didn't like the new hunk, really. I like that Kim's mom knew he was too perfect. Even Kim's dad was on his game. No one was dumb in the service of the plot.

And it ended with a really sweet, swoony kiss between Ron and Kim. Awwwwwwwwwww.
