The TV MegaSite's Blog Post #103

It's December, so that means holiday time. Every year I send out holiday cards to all of the volunteers on The TV MegaSite, and I send a gift as well. I know they appreciate it at least as much as I appreciate their year-round hard work! I wish we could get even more volunteers...

If you have even an hour a week to offer, please email me at suzanne@tvmegasite.net and let me know what you'd like to do. The list of jobs is at http://tvmegasite.net/jobs.shtml

I really wish I could get one volunteer per major network. Each person could find news and spoilers for that particular network's shows and send it to me or post it on the forum. That would be heavenly!!!

I need to do more posting around the net for help, too. It's been awhile since I've done much of that. It's so time-consuming.

This past week I've been catching up on some of my favorite shows like Vampire Diaries, Once Upon a Time, Bones, Revenge, Revolution, Arrow, and more. They are all recorded on the DVR in the bedroom, so I have to put them on DVD and watch them in the living room.

I have a DVR in the living room, but it is mostly taken up by soaps and a few primetime shows that I watch right away. The living room DVR only holds about 80 hours. The one in the bedroom holds about 500, or something like that. I should probably reverse them...would make more sense...LOL!

The PR people send me DVD's to review, and right now I'm watching the latest episodes of "Reign" from The CW. I've got one more DVD and some FX shows to catch up on. Sundi reviews a lot of new shows there for us, too, so make sure to check them out.

The Mentalist is one of my favorite shows and I always enjoy watching it. I love that they finally got Red John and all the stuff that's happened since! I can't wait to watch tonight's episode.

Supernatural isn't on this week...too bad! I always love that one.

Haven is still good but so bizarre. I admit, I'm a little confused about what's going on. I guess that's intentional. I love Colin Ferguson, and he's doing a great job, but I liked him way better on Eureka as the sheriff.

This time of year, there are lots of great holiday specials like Rudolph and Frosty, and It's a Wonderful Life, and more. What's your favorite? Mine is the original Miracle on 34th Street, but I do love the original Grinch and Rudolph as well.

The networks don't put many re-runs on like they used to. They have lots of specials and reality shows, and the only re-runs are ones they think they can get good ratings for. It's not like the old days!

That new 'Bonnie & Clyde" sounds interesting, but I didn't put it on my DVR. I might catch it later, along with that new Sound of Music that I already missed. There's just way too many good shows on nowadays.

I have to go watch the "Psych" musical episode now...should be fun!  I get to interview the stars on Tuesdays and they are always such a hoot.

Have a great week!
