Funny how the TV programming changes from year to year. As a kid, my favorite night was Sunday. A long time ago my favorite night of the week for watching TV was on Thursdays. All the good shows were on Thursday nights, back to back. But now they have changed things around and my favorite night is Tuesday. I especailly like the Sons of Anarchy show that is on the FX channel on Tuesday nights!
Bowling
We got the idea that joining a bowling league might be fun and a little more exercise. So we went down to the bowling alley and asked about joining a league. Can you believe that the leagues are all full and they aren’t taking anyone else? They offered to let us sign up as a substitute, but that isn’t what I wanted to do.
The Oscars
I thought this year’s Oscar Academy Awards is one of the more entertaining Oscar show for a while. I really enjoyed Hugh Jackman and his dance and song performances, especially the one with Beyonce. The past Oscar awardees eloquently and sincerely presented the “Best Actor/Actress/Supporting Actor/Actress” awards. I definitely enjoyed watching the fashionable attire of the actresses.
American Idol
My nightlife is exciting again. I don’t need to go out or meet new people for excitement. All I have to do is turn my television on by eight and my favorite shows are on again. I have a full schedule starting with Desperate Housewives, then the Bachelor, American Idol, and Grey’s Anatomy. On two days out of the week where I don’t have any favorite show on, I usually watch movies through Netflix. With this down economy, I try to save money by not going to movie theatres. Movie tickets have gone up quite a bit this past few years. Movie theatre popcorn and drinks added to the movie tickets make movie going an expensive treat. Unless the movie has great cinematography, I would rather wait a couple of months and watch the movie in the comfort of my old couch while wrapped in my soft throw blanket.
Golden Globe Awards
I watched Entertainment Tonight’s show for the pre and post Golden Globe Awards show. All the actresses were beautiful and wore colorful, designer gowns and huge, sparkling earrings. Just watching them walk and talk was entertainment enough!
Although all of the actresses were glamorous looking, I always had a critique or two for each actress. Kate Winslett got the “Best Dressed” for a simple black gown. Most of them wore glittery, metallic gowns. I think the Golden Globe Awards for me is about fashion and glam more than an acting award!
Hugh Grant, Ashton Kutcher
I think Ashton Kutcher is so popular because of his boyish charm. He seems so carefree, clever, and funny. I notice that personality in his Nikon camera commercials. Just a few minutes ago, I was watching the television, and the preview for Two Weeks Notice with Hugh Grant (remember him?) was shown. His personality and facial expressions reminded me of Ashton Kutcher. I used to be a fan of Hugh Grant. I think, women like men with boyish charm.
