Ahem. Hi. I kind of dropped of the blogging radar in the past week. I’ve got no excuse for it really. Mostly I was hanging out with family and doing what I never do… actually taking a break from the computer (and online activities) when I’m away from work. I know that may sound weird [...]

TV Advent: Day 24, The End
On our last day of our TV Advent calendar it seemed appropriate to share two of my favorite holiday-themed vanity cards. I’m sure you won’t be surprised to see Mutant Enemies’ Grrr Argh and who can resist the cuteness of the Warner Brothers (and sister!). Happy Holidays!! We hope you enjoyed our TV Advent Calendar.
December 24th, 2007 | Rae | Comments Off | ContinuedThis Week in Blogging: Dec 15 – 21
Another week, another round up of what was hot in TV blogging last week. Sorry it’s a bit late this week, the holidays have me off my blogging game! BuzzSugar: This week, we got pumped about new previews for Lost and Heroes, celebrated the addition of Saved by the Bell to The N, and asked [...]
December 24th, 2007 | Rae | Comments Off | ContinuedTV Advent: Day 23, Sketching the Holidays
There’s nothing better than sitting around the Christmas tree with your family laughing your ass off. My sisters and I are usually up chatting late at night which means we’re often up and watching Saturday Night Live together. Over the years SNL has had some great holiday sketches. I wish they were all available online [...]
December 23rd, 2007 | Rae | Comments Off | ContinuedTV Advent: Day 21, A Very Christmas-y Credit Sequence
This is going to be the lamest advent entry yet (your mileage may vary) but Christmas is only 4 days away and I’m still not done shopping! Needless to say, I’ve been spending precious TV Advent entry composing time out looking for presents. For those who read our Halloween Sound Off, you already know I’m [...]
December 22nd, 2007 | Rae | Comments Off | ContinuedHanging with the cast of NBC’s Chuck: Part Three
As you probably gleaned from reading parts one and two of this recap, the three lead actors on the series Chuck really do like each other. When Zac Levi, Adam Baldwin, and Yvonne Strahovsky are in the same room together there is a light and jokey atmosphere, like kids on a playground or cousins hanging [...]

RAE: It’s time for another sound off. This one will essentially be just like our Halloween TV Sound Off only this time it’s about our favorite Christmas/Holiday TV. Spads is off traveling so she won’t be joining this time around but, since he threatened asked so nicely to be included, Ducky will once again be [...]
December 21st, 2007 | Rae | 2 comments | ContinuedTV Advent: Day 20, You’ll Shoot Your Eye Out
It was revealed in recent holiday sound off (coming soon, as in tomorrow), that several of our contributors have never seen A Christmas Story. How’s that even possible?! I’ve seen it at least a hundred times and only about ten of those times were intentional. It seems like you’d have to go out of your [...]
December 21st, 2007 | Rae | Comments Off | ContinuedTV Advent: Day 19, Let It Snow
Whoa, I’m cutting this one a lil’ too close for comfort! I should’ve posted this one last week but, what can I say, I live in Florida and I wasn’t thinking about snow until we had our first cold front this week. I love it when snow is used to capture the wonder of winter. [...]
December 20th, 2007 | Rae | Comments Off | ContinuedBe, Buy, Give Invisible
I’ve been a little… distracted of late. That must be how I almost completely missed out on the Invisible Children Holiday Store 2008. Time is a little tight to actually get anything you buy by December 25th at this point (though you still have until tomorrow if you’re willing to pay for faster shipping) but [...]
December 19th, 2007 | Rae | Comments Off | ContinuedTV Advent: Day 18, Bones Under the Mistletoe
The Bones holiday episode aired so long ago but who can forget the event we’ve all been waiting for since the show began? Nothing like a little mistletoe to finally get your two leads playing tonsil hockey, eh? Today’s advent is a look at the filming of that scene. ED and DB are so cute. [...]
December 18th, 2007 | Rae | 4 comments | ContinuedDohring Talks Moonlight at the Break of Day
Now, on to happier topics! I love Jason Dohring and by love I mean like and respect a lot. And, well, he’s kinda dreamy. Especially when he’s holding your hand, taking time to ask your name, and looking into your eyes giving you his full attention. But I dunno if I love him enough to [...]
December 18th, 2007 | Rae | 7 comments | ContinuedNew Media: For Promotional Use Only?
I’ve had a beta membership to Hulu for at least a month now (I know because I got the email with my login information not long after the strike began) but I have yet to try it out. And, yes, that’s because of the strike. I feel a little dirty watching online extras much less [...]

If you’re like me, then you’ve had your fair share of Grinch-like days during the holidays. You know, those days where you can’t stand to hear one more Christmas carol and shopping woes make you want to take everything back and keep all the refunds for yourself. Yeah, those days. And when I’m having one [...]
December 17th, 2007 | Rae | Comments Off | ContinuedGetting List-y on a Monday
You know I really thought I was ready for the holidays this year. We had more time between Thanksgiving and Christmas and I actually got some presents early. I was all set to be cruising right along with my normal routine. Yeah. Silly pipe dreams. Thank goodness for the TV Advent Calendar… it’s forced me [...]

It’s that time again, time for another round up of what was hot in TV blogging last week. And this time we welcome Pop Vultures to the coalition, be sure to check out what Marcia talked about last week. BuzzSugar: This week, we questioned ABC’s Thursday scheduling choices, wondered about television’s best platonic duo, and [...]
December 17th, 2007 | Rae | Comments Off | ContinuedTV Advent: Day 16, Season’s Greetings from CBS
It’s been a long day of fighting the mall crowds to do some Christmas shopping followed up by a couple hours of wrapping (tomorrow comes the mailing). It seems like the perfect day for this simple holiday greeting that CBS aired back in the early 70s:
