Ok so maybe I love Ellen Degeneres but the Oscar's are pretty entertaining this year. On top of the fact that Ellen is hosting the show, the executives of the show are trying different things that make it a lot more interesting than past shows. The shows been going on for 79 years now, its about time things get more interesting!
My favorite things so far are the sound effects choir and Ellen! Her comedy does help the show go along a lot smoother. There are other performances from songs who are nominated for best songs of the year in a movie. Also during the award for best animated picture, they had the characters from Happy Feet, Monster House, and Cars sitting in the audience.
I'm really looking forward to the winners for Best leading actor and actress and Best picture of the year. I'll be watching and I hope you are too!

Ohhh Sarah Silverman ...
Sarah Silverman has her own new show on Comedy Central airing Thursdays at 10:30pm. She has been known for some of her outrageous stand up comedy and how sometimes some of the things she talks about shouldn't been made fun of. Her stand up covers everything from September 11th, AIDs, Martin Luther King, and rape. Often not what you would see most comics joking about but how far is "pushing the envelope."?
I actually sat down and watched her show. I didn't find anything morally wrong with what she was doing BUT it just wasn't funny! I don't want you all to think I didn't give it a chance because I did. Nothing really made me chuckle and I couldn't really follow the story.
After reading some history on Sarah and some of her work, I don't know if I could give her show another chance. Only because I feel some of the things she's done or sad isn't something anyone should be laughing out.
Maybe I'll find something else to watch on Comedy Central?

The Evolution of Dramadys.
Dramady - a show that can not be categorized as a comedy or a drama. But has a little bit of both.
Half hour sitcoms have become a thing of the past and ABC is starting a revolution. Dramadies such as Ugly Betty and Desperate Housewives are hour long shows filled with comedy and drama. They are something different for viewers to enjoy and laugh at.
Ugly Betty is by far my favorite new show. (Even if Heroes won the People's Choice for best new show). It has this mixture that has never been seen on television before. I feel as if it can appeal to all audiences and make everyone laugh. It also has it's dramatic surprises such as Alex Meade's return as Alexis Meade. The cast is full of familiar faces such as Vanessa Williams, Rebecca Romjin, and Judith Light. Along with some fresh new ones like Golden Globe & SAG Award winner America Ferrera, and Ana Ortiz. I really believe Ugly Betty will continue on giving this great message of being yourself and not being ashamed of who you are for a long time.

Do you really think you can dance?
MTV has a new show on their Monday night line up. Dancelife comes from executive producer Jennifer Lopez and it's kind of like the Real World but with dancers. The six dancers are trying to make it in Hollywood. Kenny, Jersey, Staci, Celestina, Blake, and Nolan are each at different stages in their careers but are still awaiting the auditions that could make or break their careers.
I'm not 100% sure what J.Lo has to do with this. She was only in the first episode with her hubby Marc Anthony conducting an audition. But I feel this style of reality show has been going on in other different industries.
For example, Janice Dickson's Modeling Agency on The WE Channel. Janice has an agency with models who are also trying to make it in the modeling business.
I'm not sure how Dancelife is going to go. The first few episodes have been pretty good but I doubt it's going to be something that will come back for a second season. My predictions for this semester though would be for each of the dancers who deserve the success, find their dream jobs.
