Reality TV

Lately, I've found myself - watching a lot more Reality TV. My favorites are the Amazing Race, the Apprentice, the Biggest Loser, American Idol, 18 Kids and Counting, Little People Big World, and Table for 12!

I know there are plenty more out there, but those are the ones I enjoy the most. Usually, I record them and fast-forward through commercials, or boring performances (American Idol)... so that helps to save on time.


The next question is, who do I hope wins?

Amazing Race (CBS)- Mother & Son Team - Margie & Luke

the Apprentice (NBC)- my pick is the Vivacious, Joan Rivers

the Biggest Loser (NBC)- Tara, she's Incredible! She never gives up - what a Great Competitor! I love how she doubts herself sometimes in the challenge, yet keeps going and going with determination, and in the end, she defeats those who were way in front of her. And if it can't be Tara, I'm pulling for Mike... he is so sweet - I just hope America votes him in for the Finale and he does well.

American Idol (FOX)- Kris Allen is my favorite of the Final 3 ! I just loved when he sang the country song in his own ballad tone - "To Make You Feel My Love" I have it downloaded from Itunes and it is just a beautiful version.


As far as my other favorite family reality shows on TLC - 18 Kids and Counting, Little People Big World, and Table for 12 ... I just love watching these precious families.

18 Kids is the Duggar family, who have 18 children. I am impressed with the love, respect, and moral discipline shown with such honor and grace in their home. I hope that it is inspirational to other families - we certainly need more like them today.

Little People Big World - Talking about Inspirational... nothing holds this family back - including their height. I so admire them for all they accomplish in life - and they have a very united precious family.

Table for 12 - another beautiful family with 10 children, this time. 2 sets of twins and one grouping of sextuplets. One of the little girls has cerebral palsy and it so precious to see how the other children and parents treat her so gently and kind. She's such a precious, beautiful little girl. I love how they, too, are such a close knit family.

Thank you, TLC, for giving us such great family programming. It seems to be lacking on TV sitcoms today.

YAHOO... Shutting GEOCITIES Down !

Over the weekend, I heard the news that YAHOO is Shutting GEOCITIES Down.

This is not great news for me- as I have 2 Free Geo-cities Sites and One That I pay for. All three will be removed by Yahoo - by the end of the year - unless I save and move them all to a new location.

To be honest, I'm not real happy about this "surprise announcement"and I'm sure I'm not alone... as I know millions have geo-cities web-sites. It seems especially wrong - that I will be loosing the site that I am currently paying for, as well.

I will do my very best to move all of this web-site - www.itsawonderfulmovie.com to a new server (it won't be Yahoo!) over the course of the summer and autumn.

Until then, updates can be found here on my BLOG and on the Family TV Schedule page.

More news to come.....

Take care, everyone, and God Bless!

Happy Easter - Sunday April 12th!

Easter is a very special day for our family... we rejoice in the Resurrection of our Savior... and while we still believe in the Easter Bunny and hide/hunt eggs, this is what this day truly means to us... honoring Jesus, and his greatest gift and sacrifice for us - His life. I was very young when I first asked Jesus to come into my Heart and forgive me of my sins. As I've grown and matured throughout the life, I have learned that it is a daily walk... and the sweet hymns of old that I grew up with, such as Amazing Grace, What a Friend we have in Jesus, The Old Rugged Cross, etc... mean so much more to me today.

There is so much to love about EASTER... including the Springlike mood in the air... all the light Pastel colors are pulled out from everyones' closet... and it's one of the most acceptable days to wear a hat, unless you are going to the Kentucky Derby. (which I love, by the way!)


It's just so sweet to see all the little Easter bunnies, chicks, and lambs... and all the little sweet goodies that fill Easter Baskets. I love all the little children dressed up in their finest on Easter Sunday Morning- with their Patten Shoes shined just for church! So adorable!


Please be sure to visit the Family TV Schedule to see your favorite Easter Specials - including Easter Parade, Easter Promise, The Ten Commandments, and more!


God's Blessings to you all!
