Ugly Betty Tonight

Ugly Betty has moved to Wednesday nights (yeah no more Fridays) on ABC. There are still many rumors swirling about the show and its future. One of the newest rumors is that this will be the final season and Betty and Daniel will end up together. I am not sure how I feel about this. I always felt that Betty and Daniel seemed more like brother and sister to me rather than romantic interests. As always with television, only time will tell. Watch tonight anyway...

We are getting old....

I saw this on TMZ earlier and thought it was funny. Billy Zabka played the bully in the Karate Kid back in the day. Now as much as I hated him I still thought he was cute.

Here he is now.


God we are old!

I never knew....


I have heard of this wonderful television station called LOGO (from my friend David Dust) but have never checked it out. And then something happened in my boredom on New Years Day between football games (I know football and LOGO in the same paragraph). I found a Buffy the Vampire Slayer marathon on this grand network. As I watched, the commercials promised Buffy reruns every evening. Happy New Year to me! My beloved show is back on the air for me to Tivo and watch when nothing else is on. I hear tell that there are even some of the episodes on LOGO on demand. What a wonderful network. I am even thinking about watching Rupaul's Drag Race.

The Bachelor Premieres Tonight

I can't watch. I just can't. I thought I would be able to but with Jake (a former Bachelorette castoff) as the new bachelor; I don't think I can handle all of his trite cliches. There is no doubt that he is good-looking but I am not sure that he has the charisma to pull this show off (or not the show has gotten pretty old). So anyway, here is a picture of the new bachelor and the show premieres tonight on ABC. Let me know what you think.

I woke up this morning...

and this is what I decided to wear.

I mean why not? I could pull it off right? OK really who makes this shit? Sorry J Lo but as a mother of two a little decorum is necessary. Do you want your little girl dressing like this?

My Entertainment Wish List for 2010

I have made my New Year's resolutions (and probably have already broken most of them). Now I want to write down a few things that I wish for in 2010 in the world of entertainment. Just because I have not been writing about this stuff lately does not mean that I am not paying attention. I wish for:

1. A nice man for Jennifer Aniston - she seems nice and she is beautiful. Why can't she find someone?

2. An Emmy for Friday Night Lights - every week I watch this show and lament about how great it actually is, maybe someone else will notice.

3. The early demise of Spencer and Heidi (not death just go away) - I have a real problem with people who are famous for just being famous.

4. More covers of magazines with famous people that actually are good and moral. I know, I know boring but after awhile the Tigers and Charlie Sheens have got to be shown up by someone decent.

5. Please, please no NFL strike! Please! ( I know that this is not Hollywood but it falls under my entertainment realm).

6. Movies to win Oscars that are fun to watch for the masses yet still send a message. Go Up!

7. More happy stories on the Network News; thank you Brian Williams.

8. The return of a Project Runway that is not boring and hard to watch because you have no one to pull for.

9. Glee to catch on and everyone starts singing just for the hell of it. OK I am kidding but when the show returns I hope that the wonderful stories maintain their momentum and the show does not become ho-hum.

10. Finally, I wish for less divorce, less ridiculously young deaths and more happiness (and rainbows everywhere).

Happy New Year Hollywood!

What will the year bring.....

Happy 2010 everyone! After spending a quite evening at home with my husband and children I woke up this morning with a rested head and a new zest for the year to come. As always, I have made a list of things that I would like to accomplish this year. Drumroll please......and here they are (in no particular order):

1. Lose 10 pounds (I do this one every year but this is the year of my 20 year high school reunion so it must happen)

2. Run a race and finish it (this one is scheduled, I am running a 5k on February 20th and you will hear plenty about it I am sure).

3. Try to remember how good I actually have it and not sweat the small stuff (I need to be better about letting things roll off my back).

4. Visit my family more...

5. Organize my house, my computer, my pictures and my life.

6. Be more consistent with my writing (see above)

7. Work on my patience with the children (and my husband and my friends and my family,,,)

OK that is a start. Does anyone else have a list yet? Am I reaching here? I am watching football today and eating football food and then the diet and healthy lifestyle will begin. Happy, happy day everyone! May this be the start of a fabulous year.
