Blogging Challenge ~ Binge Watching TV ~ 3/31/2021

This week's topic is:  

TV Shows I Binge Watch(ed):

The hubby was on second shift last week so I did a lot of binge watching my favorite TV shows that had begun piling up in the DVR.  Here are a few of my favorites :

Prodigal Son!

This is probably my favorite show!  It is in its second season and I haven't missed a single episode.  Technically I don't really binge watch this show because I watch it soon after it airs.  Best show ever!

NCIS!

This show I ended up binge watching about 4 episodes in a row to get caught up.  The original NCIS (the one I'm talking about) is my favorite.  I've tried to get caught up in the other NCIS spinoffs but Mark Harmon remains my favorite :)

FBI!

I think this is the second season for FBI.  Maybe the third...  I had around 6-7 episodes to watch.  It took me two evenings to get caught up.  I love Maggie and OA's characters as well as Jubal and the JOC.  Love this show :)

FBI:  Most Wanted

This show is a spin-off "FBI".  I still have a few episodes to catch up on.  I like "Most Wanted" but I like the original a tad more...

A few more:

There are a few new shows that we have DVR'd but haven't started yet.  They are "Clarice", "Debris" and "The Equalizer".

So, what are some TV shows that you binge watch(ed)?

Tuesday 4 ~ Books and TV ~ 3/30/2021

Head over to Tuesday's Place for the questions and to visit everyone's answers!

This week let's talk about books and TV programs you enjoy.

1. Are you enjoying a book right now and would you tell us about it?

I've hardly read the past few weeks.  So much going on.  I did start reading "What to Do With an Eager Earl" by Ivy Hart.  It is a novella so hopefully I'll be able to get it read quickly :)

2. Do you have a list of books you are looking forward to reading in the near future?

I solely read on my Kindle these days.  I have Kindle Unlimited and have the maximum number of books borrowed right now.  They include the rest of The Jardin Sisters series.

3. What's on television (or YouTube, etc.) at your house?

Last night we started watching "Clarice".  Oh my!  So creepy...but fascinating :)

4.What series have you followed religiously and why? (can be TV or book series)

Tomorrow's post is all about my binge watching habits so I'm not going to go into detail but I've followed the following current TV shows:

The Prodigal Son, NCIS, FBI, FBI: Most Wanted and now Clarice!

Wondering Wednesday ~ Getting to Know My TV Binge Watch ~ 6/10/20

Welcome to Wondering Wednesdays hosted by A Baker's Perspective, a weekly post to learn more about me and other bloggers.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today’s questions is – What TV show would you binge watch right now?

My Answer - 

My absolute favorite show this past season was Prodigal Son!

I impatiently waited for each Monday night to roll around so that I could watch the newest episode as it aired!  I never do that.  I always just watch the DVR'd episodes of my go-to shows at my leisure.

I saw every single episode of Prodigal Son but I would gladly binge watch the entire season again.  I'm sure there was so much that I missed.

The season finale was definitely a cliff-hanger!  I will be extremely upset if the show isn't renewed for at least one more season :(  I've got to know what happens!

What show would you binge watch?

Thankful Thursday ~ 9/20/18

~Happy 18th Anniversary to the Hubby and me!  Monday was 18 years since we said our vows.  We didn't do anything special to celebrate.  We had dinner with the family, made a quick trip to Wal-Mart and did homework.  But the Hubby took the day off work and we spent the whole day together.  Wasn't that sweet?  It was a very good day!

~Laken finally got to cheer at her first Flag Football Game on Saturday!  The rain held off for a while and she had so much fun.  We always enjoy watching her cheer and it was interesting to watch my first ever Flag Football Game.  Laken also had a Pep Rally at school and got to watch the 7th and 8th grade Cheerleaders do a dance routine and cheer.  She is more in love with Cheering than ever and can't wait until  next year to be on the official school squad!

~The new Fall shows start next week!  There are so many new shows that I want to set up to DVR so that I don't miss any.  I'm also looking forward to watching some of the older shows that I love.  Speaking of TV, did anyone catch the Pittsburgh VS Kansas City Football game last Sunday?  I hope things start looking up soon!

~I wrote my 3000th blog post!  I've been blogging for 9 years and have written over 3000 posts.  Thanks for tagging along!

~Kaylee's is writing a new blog to journal through her Gap Year.  I'd love for you to check it out and give her a follow :)  Kay's Gap Year

~Finally, I need some advice!  For my long-time followers, you might remember that we built an addition with a Family Room and a Master Bedroom.  When we were painting the walls, I just wanted it done and we painted everything white with chocolate brown trim.  Now I'm thinking I want to paint our Bedroom an actual COLOR!  I'm debating between a pale yellow, a calm/cool/fresh gray or maybe something entirely different.  Any suggestions?

What are you thankful for today?

Journal Entry ~ 2/13/18

Today was a good day!

~I got Dex on the bus, took the girls to school and then hung out with Damon all day. 

~We all had our 6 month dental cleanings and check-ups at 3:30pm.  Doug was the only one that has to go back for dental work.  He has two filling that have chipped and need replaced.  The rest of us don't have to go back until August.

~Tonight was the Harvester's Meeting.  The Harvester's is the ladies group at our Church.  We meet on the second Tuesday of each month for a meal and a meeting.  The food is always wonderful and I am so full!

~I'm behind on my RTW Word reading.  I should take some time before bed to catch up.  I think I will do that.

~I have to fast tonight and in the morning.  Tomorrow I get my annual bloodwork and mammogram done.  My mammogram is scheduled for 9am.  I think I'll get the girls to school and go straight to the Diagnostic Center for my bloodwork before the mammogram.  I don't mind getting either one done.  I just hate waiting for results.  Even though I have no reason to really worry, I still do until I get the "OK".

~Doug and Kaylee are binge watching the show "Jericho".  I'm catching bits and pieces while I'm on the computer.  I might have to start at the beginning and catch up to them.  Right now I'm still trying to catch up on NCIS before starting to watch the new episodes.  I miss Tony and Ziva, but I am enjoying Quinn and Torres.

For now,

Tunes & TV ~ Harper Valley/Suits/Dallas ~8/28/12

A post to combine my love of tv/movies and music :)   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~      

With today being the first day of school for my kids, I wanted to find a song that was "school-y".  

"Harper Valley PTA" is the first one that came to mind.  Does that say something?  I remember hearing this song when I was little and my Mom and Aunt Donna would sing along.  And, common, just try not to sway a bit!  lol

This is also "old-school".  Corny, I know.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

It is an off-week for the "On Your Screen Link-up",
so you get some of my random TV thoughts!

I want to talk about a few of my favorite summer TV shows that had their season finales recently.  So, if you still have them in your DVR and haven't watched them yet, there are tons of spoilers.  You are warned.

First, who else watches "SUITS"?

It has become one of my absolute favorite lawyer shows EVER!  The dynamics between Harvey and Mike are so entertaining.  Their one-liners and stingers are amazing.

So, the finale starts with Daniel Hardman being voted in as the new Managing Partner.  By the end of the show, Jessica not only is once again the Managing Partner, but Hardman gets FIRED!  Go team, Jessica!

Some other notables are:  Donna is back!  And just when I thought Mike and Rachel had another shot at getting together, once again, a love triangle is introduced.  Rachel, at Mike's door, sees Tess (an old friend of Mike's) walking around in nothing but a sheet.

End season.  Arghhh!

~~~~~~

Next up is "DALLAS".

I remember watching the original series when I was a kid and we only got one station on the TV with an antennae.  So I knew I wanted to give the updated show a try.  In fact, I watched the very first episode in our Disney World Resort Room the first week of June!

I DVR'd a few episodes and then sat down one evening and had a mini-Dallas-marathon.  What a roller-coaster.  It definitely has drama down cold.

So, the finale.  J.R. signs over the deed of Southfork to Bobby in a rare moment of sentimentality.  Bobby's brain aneurysm is removed successfully.  John Ross and Elena get engaged.  John Ross and Elena break-up.  Christopher finds out that Rebecca isn't really Rebecca and says they are DONE.  Elena and Christopher hop into bed.

And the shocker of the night:  Rebecca (who BTW is pregnant with Christopher's twins) is really a BARNES!    I DID NOT see that coming!  lol

Like I said:  DRAMA.

And, I can't help it.  John Ross is my favorite!
~~~~~

Hopefully both these shows will be back on for the Winter Season in January.  I'm looking forward to it, if you can' tell :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

With the new Fall shows coming on soon, do you have any suggestions on new shows to watch?  I've seen so many previews for shows that look really interesting and have a good premise.

Please let me know your suggestions!

Later!

Tunes and TV ~ 8/21/12

A post to combine my love of tv/movies and music :)   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~      

I adore Miranda Lambert.  Her music, her personality and you can always be sure that her videos will entertain.  This song is a new one for me and so it was the first time I'd seen the video as well.  It had me grinning the whole way through.  I hope you enjoy it also!

        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~    

I've been looking for a place to share my thoughts on TV shows and movies that I watch.  The "On Your Screen" feature is a linky that gives a prompt question every other Tuesday.  On the weeks that there aren't a prompt I'll just be sharing miscellaneous thoughts on what I've watched that week.  I'm looking forward to this feature.  Come join in :)

This week's question:

" What are your favorite TV shows from the 90's?"

I graduated from High School in 1996.  The 90's were my prime time!

It was so easy to pick my favorite show.  I really didn't even have to think about it.  This was a show that my friends and I got together on Thursday nights at 8:00 pm to watch each week.  The theme song from this show was even our Class Song! 

It was so sad when the show ended.  It was the end of an era.

If you haven't guessed it yet, my favorite show of the 90's was:

"FRIENDS!!!!"

I couldn't find a clip from youtube that allowed embedding.  Stupid copyrights!  So here is the theme song.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I really enjoyed this the feature today!  A new song and a trip down Memory Lane. 

Now 'fess up:  Who knew the theme song for Friends by heart?  I DID!

Later!
