Much of the gun control debate has included conversations about entertainment, video games, television and children.
As a parent I'm consistently concerned about screen time. Our kids have so many bright and shiny screens staring back at them in every part of their lives. Computers, T.V.'s, tab...

One of my friends posted a photo of Thomas (a.k.a. Robert James Collier) on Facebook. His character in Downton has been so nasty that I've never viewed him as handsome.

Oh, how I love The Vampire Diaries. I do not, however, love the CW’s tendency to give us a smattering of new episodes and then take a three week break.
That’s far too long to expect me to remember the hair-pin plot turns! For crying out loud...this show includes no less than 14 longing looks...

This weekend I spent some time catching up with my long-lost friend, the DVR. After having been in bed with a nasty sinus infection for the better part of 10 days, I was in the mood for something peppy.
Smash delivered.
I made sure to set my DVR to record Smash during NBC’s big pre-Superbowl...
