I love a show with a voice over. A witty tongue in cheek voiceover. You know kind of like the voice of the dead housewife on Desperate Housewives. Mary Alice was only on the show for 1 episode, but she lives on season after season. She’s the voice of reason. She tells it like...

I posted about the new Duran Duran tour and album a few days ago. It got me reminiscing about the 80s. I had a Duran Duran t-shirt at one time. My last DD t-shirt was purchased in the 80s and sadly even if it fit it would be faded and worn out. It might...

Are you like me? Do you remember everything about your child’s first movie experience? Did you fret over whether your child was ready for a movie in a theater? I’ll bet you waited until your child would sit still for a movie at home. My daughter loved watching videos. Some of the Golden Books...

By now you know that I like macabre, off-the-wall humor. Monty Python — check. The Office — check. My latest find is Childrens Hospital. Basically Childrens Hospital is my type of show…it is “based on the Webby Award–winning digital series and quickly became a Web hit with its twisted take on network medical dramas,”...

“This is not the way other people ride rides at amusement parks!” I said this as we were ushered on to the Simpson’s Ride at Universal Studios. I felt compelled to explain to my son that our VIP access was very unusual and special. He shrugged. At 7 he did not “get” how extraordinary...

Lately whenever I turn the TV on…and I seem to watc h a ton of TV lately…The Office is on. Now the funny thing is that I wasn’t a big office fan of either the original British version or the one with Steve Carrell. I watched a handful of episodes. But, now that the...

What is the Jensen Project? I’m not sure. I know it has something to do with Family Movie Night. I can totally stand behind any force to get families together…eating dinner together, family game night, etc. The writeup sounds as though it is right up my alley. Here’s what I know… The Jensen Project...

A week or two ago I attended a brand/blogger event sponsored Silicon Valley Moms Blog and numerous brands. It was truly a day of pampering, information, and community. The best kind of day, really! I had the unbelievable good fortune to win a laptop computer. I was thrilled not only to win, but to...

Time waster? Who me? Would I search about on the internet to solve a question that has bothered me for weeks? You know troll about twitter…check out wikipedia…search on imdb. Why? To find the identity of an obscure reality TV actor from an equally obscure reality TV show, that’s why! Well, yes I did....

I have a history of not jumping on the bandwagon or catching a show a season or two in. Lost. 24. American Idol. And now Glee. I saw the tweets. I love the blonde-haired cheerleader coach from all the Christopher Guest movies. I don’t watch network TV live. I occasionally watch if I DVR...
