Tune In Tuesday - Revenge


So with the new fall lineup my DVR has been kicked into overdrive.

Is it sane for a household of two people that have three tvs to also require three dvrs? I am almost ready to take the plunge for number three.

Anyways, I have been totally seduced by my newest tv addiction, Revenge.

A very wealthy girl - Emily Thorne - has moved back to her childhood home in the Hamptons to seek revenge against those who put her father in prison.

I am greatly simplifying this.

Basically her dad was the scapegoat for a huge money laundering scheme that was supposedly feeding into a terrorist organization that killed numerous people. Now that Emily Thorne, or Amanda as she was born (I know, watch and it makes sense), is back and she is taking each person who played a role in ruining her fathers life down. She is not just taking them down, she is out to ruin their lives as they did her fathers - he died in jail - and enjoying every moment of it.

Im telling you. Find the past episodes, watch, and get sucked in.

Your Welcome.

Tune in Tuesdays - Most Eligible Dallas


I have thoroughly enjoyed the ridiculousness of this show.  Bravo just never seems to let me down.

The thing that makes it for me though is Courtney.  She is over the top ridiculousness.  Every time she starts to describe who the "perfect match" for someone is I grin form ear-to-ear.  The bonus though.  She always is wearing something I covet.

So, you can imagine how excited I was when I stumbled across THIS:



Even better, she appears to be a high-low mix master.

Thank you Courtney.

Tune in Tuesday - Picker Sisters


So, I am sure anyone who is perusing this blog has heard of American Pickers. Basically people digging through others garbage to find treasures that they can sell at twice the price.

Well, welcome to the newest addition...Picker Sisters.

Basically Tanys (brunette) and Tracy (blonde) travel through the south digging through amazing junk/treasure piles for items they can turn into high end furniture pieces.



The chandelier made out of old rope and wagon wheels.


A swing out of a silo.

In one episode they bought an old house that they took down to the ground for the beautiful weathered wood.

There is also the fascinating people watching that comes along their yards and heaps of junk.

Tune in Tuesday - Big Rich Texas

First of all, I am sorry for the lack of post in OVER A WEEK! I had a crazy week of installing a 7,000 square foot house for work and then had a crazy bridal shower and bachelorette party on both sides of that! ACK. I barely slept.

When I had a moment where I was not working or partying though I made sure to catch
Big Rich Texas.


Yes, it is exactly what you are thinking. A rip-off of the Bravo Housewives mega hits.


Is it just me though or was the NYC reunion almost too much. It is getting to the point where those shows are almost becoming to intense and stressful to watch.

Big Rich Texas however is ridiculous and full of fluff that makes you feel better about your life after watching it. I mean, episode 1 or 2 involves a mother bribing her child with lip enhancement injections in exchange to have a tattoo of the "C word" removed from her foot.
(FYI - it wasn't tiny either)

Also, if you happened to catch the one season of Dallas Divas and Daughters, you will recognize one set of cast members. Pam and Hannah are back. Apparently, Pam has only appeared to get more rigid meanwhile her daughter is returning from her first year of college and she might be a even brattier than before.

If you have an extra space on your DVR, I think it is worth a shot. Find it on the Style network.

Tune In Tuesday - Pretty Little Liars


FYI - I am a thirteen year old girl at heart.


I started watching this because I am a child parading around everyday life as an adult. I kept watching because it is SOOO addictive-ly good.

It feels like we are in season 13 because there is so much that happens every episode. I mean you have murder, infidelity, secrets (by-the-by, secrets don't make friends), teacher - student hook-ups, and shady cops and parents.

All I can tell you is do not start watching if you cannot dedicate an hour to watch and the next 6 days to discussing it. I have sucked all of my "adult" girlfriends into it and frankly, they are so happy I did.

Enjoy!

Tune in Tuesday - My Favorite Place


So I do not usually tune in to HGTV just to see what is on. I usually have a show I am dying to watch - Secrets From a Stylist - or I DVR shows to watch as I lull myself to sleep - House Hunters International.

Well, when we leave our casa, we leave the TV on for Miss Dorothy Mantooth so she is not lonely. Not to mention, she is a TV junkie. (Like her mother, like daughter.) She has 2 options: Disney or HGTV. She gets only these because they are the 2 channels that nothing scary will ever pop up on.

Anyways, as I left the house the other day, I turned on HGTV for Dorth and a show was starting that I had not heard of...My Favorite Place. I hit record and went out the door. When I came home I started it up to see if it was anything I would be interested in. HELLO NEW FRIEND! I scored.

Basically, the show showcases 3 designers or celebrities showing you around their "favorite place" which is either their home or a clients.

This past episode was Lela Rose, Nick Olsen, and Moby.

Here is the three story abode Lela Rose calls home in NYC.




Meanwhile, here is Moby's home *ahem* CASTLE.



Who knew?

Check out when it is on HERE.

Tune In Tuesday - Amsale Girls


My name is Rebecca and I am a TV junkie.

I cannot help it. I was raised that way. How many young children went to sleep watching Maude? Two - my brother and I.

Anyways, I have started watching another new show and I am becoming addicted.



Amsale Girls follows the bridal consultants in the Amsale showroom in NYC.


You may be thinking to yourself, "This sounds just like Say Yes to the Dress."
It does, but its not.

You do not get as much backstory on the clients and you really get more info on the consultants. It is not quite as crazy and as my mother pointed out, there is no token gay man helping dress the brides.

It is a an interesting look into the bridal world AND you get to see the hundreds of gorgeous Amsale dresses up close and personal.
