In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1….

Annnnnnnnnnd we’re back.  Ok, kind of, and only kind of because I don’t have much to say right now.  I’ve missed my GMMRers over the past few days and I’m more than ready to get back to our regularly scheduled programming. For those of you who celebrate, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I had relaxing time with the family, and I’m personally looking forward to celebrating Christmas Part Deux this coming weekend when I get to see my little nieces open up their gifts.

So, I’m here…I’m back, and I’m going to be looking for some good ‘ol TV news to get us back in the swing of things.

Happy Holidays from Give Me My Remote

I just wanted to take a moment to wish everyone a happy and healthy holiday season.  I’ve got some last minute shopping to take care of and then it’s off to spend some time with my family.  I’ll be around but I might not get around to posting much until Christmas night.  I hope you all get what you want to Christmas this year.  You all know what I’m hoping Santa brings for me   Be good!!

Watchlist and GMMR Update

Before you know it our favorite shows will be back. Personally, I can’t wait. It’s been a slow TV news week. I’m officially on my Christmas break and I don’t have to go back to work until January. Woo hoo!!! But I’m not on vacation from GMMR so although things might be a bit slower over the next few days I’ll be around. We’ve got some fun things planned next week, so make sure you check in.

If you come across some TV news you want to share, feel free to send it along. And just because I don’t watch your favorite show, it doesn’t mean I won’t share the scoop and the gossip. So if you’ve got it….give it (that’s what she said..sorry I couldn’t resist).

And since I’ve already received a ton of emails today, I have to say that we are going to have to skip out on The Office Thursday on Give Me My Remote today. I know, I know. But I HAVE to go Christmas shopping or risk having nothing but my winning smile to give the family on Christmas morning. Please forgive me. Be back later!!!

A Benihana Christmas tonight on NBC!! Watch it again…and again…and again. And thank to MozartsFriend for this video.

“Lost” Star’s House Goes Up in Flames

Lost star Evangeline Lilly’s Hawaiian home was destroyed by fire early this morning, but the star and her roommates are thankfully safe.The house, which Lilly reportedly shares with two women who work on the Lost crew, was empty at the time of the blaze. No injuries were reported.

Honolulu Fire Capt. Kenison Tejada said that his department received the alarm at 6:43 a.m. Wednesday, and that crews reached the scene six minutes later.

“When we arrived the house was fully engulfed,” Tejada said. “It was a complete loss. Just the roof was still standing.” Fire investigators arrived on the scene of the early morning blaze later on Wednesday. The cause has yet to be determined.

Hello? Are You There?

So it seems like you all have been coming to GMMR in droves this past week, but you’d never know it by the lack of chit chat. No comments? No love? I know TV has been a bit lame as of late but you must be watching something, no? Give me a topic that y’all would be interested in talking about. Something…anything. NO…not THAT!!!
At the very least you can all wish my friend Cip a very Happy Birthday. He’s turns the Big 3-0 today!!!

Leona Lewis “A Moment Like This” Video

A perk of having your own blog is that you can post what you like, when you like…even if people are getting sick of it. Case in point…my latest obsession with Leona Lewis. Sorry, but I j’adore her which means you too much endure all the videos.

Check out Leona’s very first music video. It was throw together in the past week and it documents her X Factor journey from audition through her big win. I’m still a tad bit disappointed that her first single is a cover of Kelly Clarkson’s “A Moment Like This” but I could listen to her all day. Go Leona!!

TV Spoofs to Curb the Boredom

Listen, I know what you are doing. You are sitting at your computer pretending to do work, or perhaps pretending to study for finals. But if you are anything like me you can work in, oh about 5 minute increments before getting distracted by this good ‘ol thing called the world wide web. It just sucks you in, doesn’t it? Well, I’m an enabler so I thought I would share some fun distractions with you.

I can’t ever say that I watch MadTV, but I do find the skits they do pretty amusing. Check out some of these great TV spoofs from the recent past:
