I am getting emotional thinking about tomorrow being the final episode of Downton Abbey. I love everything about this series and I am sad to see it go. The Crawley family has been a part of millions of adoring fans around the world. I will be blogging more about the finale from now until tomorrow after it is all said and done.
The new season of Survivor is premiering tonight with a revisit of Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty. It’s hard to believe it’s here and from the promos this will be a brutal season. Survivor remains the granddaddy of all reality competition shows. They do a great job of keeping this show fresh and interesting. This will be very interesting all season.
Are you being rebooted? Well, in the case of classic BBC comedy Are You Being Served? the answer is most definitely yes.The BBC has announced that it’s heading back to Grace Brothers’ department store for a revival of the smash hit comedy series.
I am a fan of this classic Brit-com. This is a great workplace comedy with some great dialogue and writing. One of the great things about this show is the cast which was top notch.
I don’t watch “Scandal” or “The Bachelor”. Back to your regularly scheduled blog posts.
I don’t understand why it’s always a pretty white gal and guy who are in the movie to save the day? To me it seems like diversity is a strength and there are many capable actors and actresses of color who can be the super hero. It really doesn’t send a good message when its all about the brave and the beautiful. Can the brave be average looking? Is there a rule that the hero has to be a hunk or the heroine supposed to be hot? Also do the heroes have to be always slender, like they might need to eat a sandwich or something.
I really don’t mean to be judgemental like I mentioned in my previous post but this is a real world problem that spills out into the cinema and on TV. We could say it’s the writers who make this happen but just think if Harry Potter was of Asian heritage or if Katniss Everdeen were African American. Maybe there needs to be a change in how the world is looked at. Heroes come in all packages and shapes and colors. It’s kind of how we were made. Just saying.
For nine years on Fox’s hit sci-fi show “The X-Files,” FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully searched for an alien truth that was seemingly hidden in the skies. But as they return to screens this week, the truth might be much closer to home.

The X-Files was a staple of Sunday night TV for years. It’s return is a walk down memory lane for many and a introduction to others of some great characters. I want to believe this will be great.
