  • I wish Samantha Stephens was my neighbor

    There’s a marathon of Bewitched on TVLand today.  This is the way to come home after a visit to the gym and the grocery store.  Does anyone not enjoy the innocent magic that happens in the Stephens’ home?  Well, maybe Gladys Kravitz, but that’s what you get for being a snoop. Bewitched was so much more than…

  • The Gym vs. Roseanne

    Lying on the couch today I was thrilled to fall into a Roseanne marathon on Oxygen (the other Lifetime).  I missed a lot of Roseanne when it was on originally, seeing the first few seasons but then losing track of it as the family grew and eventually won the lottery (did you see that final season… what?)…

  • Holy Christmas Batman!

    This Christmas was full of excitement, magic and… unfortunately… a few passings. The magic began when we braved the crazies and went to Macy’s to check out Santa Claus. No, none of us hopped up on his jolly little lap, but we did walk through his winter wonderland, sneak a peak, and get a jazzy…

  • About damned time! Bea inducted!!

    Bea Arthur (love her… no seriously, love her dammit) is being inducted into the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences’ Hall of Fame! The AHall of Fame Committee also selected Dan Burke, Larry Gelbart, Merv Griffin, Tom Murphy and Sherwood Schwartz. But Bea is by far the most significant (for me). I grew up on…

  • The sky is falling…

    So a piece of the sky just fell… well, a piece of the ceiling. And I’m so gay that I immediately thought of this classic Golden Girls moment.

  • Tells me I’m bloody damn Bubbles does it?

    After reading my friend Mike’s blog and hearing about his results on the Which Golden Girl are you? Quiz, and then watching AbFab tonight I decided to take the Which AbFab character are you? quiz. (Click here to take it if you wish…AbFab Quiz). Turns out I’m Bubbles so of course the bloody thing is…

  • Not sleeping… take two hours of the BBC’s Shakespeares and call me in the morning.

    Why am I up you might ask? Well, I’ve not been sleeping. I have to move on Saturday, finish my theatre history journals, AND figure out how to pay for living all while saving the world from the forces of evil. It’s a tough job. It’s very much like being a Superfriend except that my…

  • Crying for no reason… oh wait, WILL & GRACE is on.

    So I totally started crying tonight for no reason. At first I thought to myself, “Am I a woman AND on my period?” Then I checked the drawers, realized I was being COMPLETELY ridiculous, and thought what the HELL is my problem. I took a moment, looked around the room, spotted Will & Grace on…
