Opulence, I has it.

This commercial cracks me up. I don't even know why, but every time I hear it come on one of the TVs in the house, I run to catch it again. Even my dad and I quote it. I think I've come to the point where I enjoy watching TV just for the good advertisements.

A Minor Dinner Table Infraction

Okay, so I know this is not the first time I've posted a commercial, but I just really appreciate anything that gives me a giggle. This kid's monologue about his mac and cheese is so dry and grown-up, it's hysterical. "Clever, Dad. Send me up the river on trumped up charges and scarf down my mac and cheese. Clllllllassy."

My Life in Lists #6

Since I've been home, I've watched an unusual amount of television...mostly, just because I haven't had this much free time in a loooooong time. In addition to my usual favorites, I've added a few more shows to the mix. So, I decided to make a list of my favorite TV shows of all time.

1. Murder She Wrote-- This is my ALL TIME FAVORITE. I know, I'm like a 60 year old woman for liking this show. But I, proudly, fess up to owning every season that has been put out on DVD.

2. Criminal Minds-- This is my most recent addiction, but at the top of my list. My parents are hooked on this show, so it didn't take me very long to catch on. It took me a little while to get used to how creepy it is, but it's a smart show, if that makes sense.

3. Boy Meets World-- Classic. I could watch this show all day long.

4. Pushing Daisies-- I'm so very sad this show got cancelled. It was so precious, from the characters to the sets, just all around a great two seasons of murder-mystery, but in a fun, upbeat sort of way.

5. Modern Family-- This show is just plain funny. Just watch the episode with the pigeon and you'll see.

6. The Mentalist-- Another show my parents like which then became a favorite of mine. I was so pumped to see Red John make another appearance on the season finale.

7. Saturday Night Live-- I didn't really get into this show until I was at Auburn. Always good for a laugh. Especially Kristen Wiig's characters.

8. Bones-- Another "smart" murder mystery show. It almost makes me want to become a forensic anthropologist...but not really.

9. 7th Heaven-- This was one of the first shows I really "followed." I still remember when the series finale came on when I was in 9th grade, it was kind of a big deal.

10. Glee-- The music is catchy, the banter is witty, the drama is juicy. It's ridiculous, but I can't stay away.

SUCH great cast chemistry

pure imagination

I love, love, love this commercial. Mostly because it's so whimsical, and I'm a huge fan of the original Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory movie circa 1971.

i'm such a gleek

Good news...GLEE is back!! I've been watching Glee since it premiered last fall, and this season's premier was just as great as I thought it would be. Idina Menzel was a nice touch, especially after Kristen Chenoweth appeared last season. Next week the Madonna episode aires, and judging by this clip, it is going to be fan-tastic.
