Best. Show. Ever.
I’m currently taking a night off of homework and projects and have spent the evening with TV. Thursday nights are the best.
First we’ve got The Office, then Parks and Recreation, then 30 Rock, then Outsourced, then Police Women of Cincinnati, and then…
Before we get to the synopsis and review of that show, we need to back up before my mom calls me immediately (because she reads my blog all day long? I wish…) and asks me why the heck I am watching hours of TV, especially when I just complained of being a “hot mess.”
Mom, and to everyone else out there who is thinking, “I haven’t watched that much TV for years, if ever…” Well then you need to find out what you’re missing because Thursday night TV is the best. And it’s good to take a break from your studying, that’s what Eric Matthews and Mr. Feeny said on Boy Meets World a few weeks ago. Oh, and I multitask. I made dinner, ate dinner, took a little nap, thought about starting “Insanity”, decided against it, and blogged.
Back to Babies Behind Bars. It’s exactly what it says. Not teenagers who are acting like babies. It’s babies who are actually living in behind bars because their moms get to keep their newborns while they are in prison. Only about ten women at this individual prison get to do this because it takes a lot of room and they are still testing it all out to see how it affects the mothers, the babies now and later, and the rest of the women in the prison.
It’s quite touching, actually. Not as touching as the men in high security prisons who get to have kittens, but rounding out to a close second.
P.S. TLC sure makes great/ridiculous documentaries. You’ve got to check some of them out. From Toddlers In Tiaras to My Strange Addiction, I’m always captivated. Hannah Judd once said (tonight when I asked her on gchat for a quote),
It sucked us all in, Hannah. And that folks, is how you justify watching hours of TV on a Thursday night. Go turn on TLC (channel 30). You won’t regret it.
Bored of your normal TV shows? Try watching these surprisingly intriguing shows.
I love my Netflix account. I signed up about two years ago and just can’t let go. It’s the best. They have tons of TV shows you can watch instantly and the price is great.
Currently, I am making my way through the Monk series. I watched all of them back in the day, but it’s been a while since I’ve seen most of them and so they are still interesting, not to mention, extremely entertaining. T.J. never watched the series originally, so he is slowly falling in love with the show too. I was so sad when the series ended so it’s nice to have a little Monk back in my life.
Here’s another one that they did.
Oh Glee, I miss you so much. Why did you have to turn so scandalous and racy? Has anybody been keeping up with it? Has it gotten any better?
K, I cheated. I gave up Glee, but I came across this song and am obsessed. It turns out my new idol is Gwyneth Paltrow. I LOVE her voice, it’s so unique! Anyway, be warned. Once you listen to this song, you will want to keep it on repeat for days and might burst out singing it on campus!
I stopped watching Glee a few weeks ago because it was getting a little too inappropriate. As if that wasn’t disappointing enough, today I tried to download some of the music from the show, and it’s just not the same because I didn’t see the episodes. Usually I want to download all of them, but I only wanted to buy a couple. And even then, it’s just not as fun to listen to.
Shame.
