Commercials for fall season now airing

I’m starting to get a bit excited. I’ve been seeing more and more commercials for fall shows airing, mostly in prime time. I wonder how many pens the writers went through trying to explain things – the growth and aging of castmembers, current events, scenery, pretty much everything. It will be interesting to see.

An extreme waste

In 2005 Extreme Home Makeover demolished the rundown home of the Harper family of Clayton County, GA and built them a mansion. That mansion is now in foreclosure, due to go to auction on 08/05. I know it’s been stated that the show advises all families to get financial advice after receiving a makeover. What [...]

Home Improvement in reruns

My and RB used to always watch the comedy series Home Improvement, which has been off the air for a number of years now. It’s reappeared in the form of reruns, on Nick At Nite. My son TJ loves to watch it, apparently he thinks it’s as funny as I used to. If you’ve never [...]

Bath fitters commercial

Our old bathroom is pretty old, almost forty years old. Almost everything in there including the sinks, the toilet and the tub need replacing. RB saw some commercials for Bath Fitter and thinks we should look into it. I think he’s crazy. Bath Fitter doesn’t actually replace anything, they just put new custom covers over [...]

Update on GH Night Shift

Well, I’ve just finished watching the season 2 premiere of the SoapNetĀ  series General Hospital Night Shift. I just don’t get what they’re trying to accomplish here. The main characters here seem to be 3 characters from General Hospital. There are one or two cast members from Night Shift’s first season but for the most [...]

Have you ever seen any of the commercials for trips to Walt Disney World? They always seem to involve a set of parents and two kids. It always seems to be night time in the commercials and a horse drawn carriage is always involved. Without a doubt, Walt Disney World is the best of Orlando [...]

Have you ever missed a movie everyone you know saw?

All of the women I work with have seen a movie called Best In Show, which I have never seen. I’d not even heard of it until they got to talking about it. My understanding is that the movie is a comedy about a fake dog show. The cast portrays dog owners and handlers, and [...]

General Hospital Night Shift returns tonight

I just saw a commercial letting me know that the SoapNet series General Hospital Night Shift premieres its second season tonight. I’m confused. Last year when the series began the network said the storylines of General Hospital and General Hospital Night Shift were separate and that viewers wouldn’t need to watch both. As a regular [...]

Goodbye Estelle

Actress Estelle Getty passed away this morning at the age of 84. If you’re my age you probably remember the comedy series Golden Girls that was on in the second half of the 1980s. Estelle Getty portrayed Sophia, the mother of Bea Arthur’s character, on the successful series for more than seven years and won [...]
