How to tell if you’re a TV addict Part 1

These 2 points are just a few indications that you are a TV addict. Find out if any of them resembles your behavior.

You only talk during commercials
People who do not care much about TV shows are not bothered when they are distracted from the television. There are other citizens who will not allow distractions when they are watching a TV show. This particular behavior demonstrates that you are a TV addict. I know people who will not answer the doorbell or telephone if their favorite TV show is on. While I do not consider myself to be someone that goes to this extreme, I have rushed conversations in order to catch every second of 24 episodes. No one can blame me, the Fox drama series with Kiefer Sutherland is very action packed.

You never forget the air dates
If you know exactly when and where Gilmore Girls or Big Love is coming on, that demonstrates TV addict behavior. The average citizen is not going to know what day and time 24 comes on. Most people flip through various television channels and watch anything that entertains them. If you do not believe me, walk outside and ask someone to tell you what day and time Big Love airs on TV. More than likely, the person will not know. If you are lucky, you may run into someone who happens to be a big fan of the show. In these cases, my recommended experiment does not apply.

A few more indications of "TV Addict" behavior will be listed in a future post.

Sex and the City Movie Madness

I'm tired and cranky, but needed to blog something anyway. Sex and The City: The Movie is the chosen topic for the day. There has been lots of talk about the storyline and what will happen....

Some of the more popular stories include Charlotte(played by Kristin Davis)finally getting pregnant and having a baby. There is also lots of buzz around Jennifer Hudson, who will be playing Carrie's(Sarah Jessica Parker) fashionable assistant. Also, Hollywood actress Kristin Davis has reportedly voiced concerns about the paparazzi leaking too much information vis-à-vis this Sex and the City Movie and it's plot. Numerous photos have been captured and posted by the media, giving fans of the hit HBO series a glimpse into Sex and The City: The Movie. This sneak peak may be too much.

I'm all in support of this Sex and the City frenzy that people have been in. There are so many unanswered questions that could be concluded in the Sex and The City Movie. However, my only concern is what goes on with Mr. Big(Chris Noth) and Carrie. He came in again at the right time, when her fairytale relationship imploded in Paris. Now what? That is what I would like to know, which may be the reason to pay $9for a movie ticket when Sex and the City: The Movie is released next year.

The photo in this blog post reflects a favorite of many fans of Sex in the City, myself included. A New York gal and her New York man, together and happy at last. I had to post it, maybe because Carrie's dress is nice or maybe it was because of her fun looking handbag. No matter what influenced the impulse to post this photo from Sex and the City: The Movie, it is a great picture. The shoes do not seem to be that fabulous, but maybe they look better up close.

Great couples photos are not always easy to come by. There is always one of the two looking awkward. Yet, this one picture from Sex and the City: The Movie works on so many levels, but maybe you will have to had seen at least some of the TV episodes to understand. As much as I tend to be a hater on many photos that include a man and a woman, this image is a classic representation of one particular storyline from Sex and the City and could even pass as an awsome couples photo if these two were together in real life.

Sex and the City: The Movie is scheduled to be released in May 2008.

TV actors suspended due to WGA Strike

The cast on TV shows including The Office, Bionic Woman and 30 Rock were informed that they will be suspended for five weeks.

This is the result of an ongoing strike by members of the Writer's Guild of America.
The cast on these shows will be given half of their normal pay during the duration of their suspension by Universal Studios. TV hit shows Desperate Housewives and Grey's Anatomy are among the productions that have already been affected by the strike. Other studios, including Warner Bros. TV may do the same as Universal Studios within the next few weeks.

These suspensions may affect who will be on the shows when (or if) they return to TV with new episodes. This is not a funny situation for actors nor TV fans. It seems that we will be watching even more reruns in the upcoming weeks. It may be time to break out the DVDs and popcorn.
