The Addams Family


"Their creepy and their kooky, 
Mysterious and spooky, Their all together ooky
The Adams family..." - The Addams Family Theme Song

Nostalgia is my vibe today and it's gonna stay that way. I wanted to share how excited I am that local Los Angeles station ME-TV has brought back The Addams Family weekdays at 6 pm! Yay!

While the show originally aired one year prior to my birth it was in re-runs constantly during my youth.

I always dug the Addams clan, I'm pretty sure it was some sort of connection to my feeling like an outsider. They definitely made me feel seen.

The infamous Wednesday Addams is one of my spirit animals.

Many of you, like me enjoy the weekend. However I can't wait for the return of Monday because at 6 pm you know what I'll be doing. OK, I could possibly be doing something else and recording it, but you get the drift.

Waxing Nostalgic

We Go Together
Olivia Newton-John & John Travolta
Being it is the season for nostalgia, sentimentality, etc... this photo really brought back fond memories for me of my youth. That's correct minions, I've got chills they're multiplying!

My first girl crush Olivia Newton - John and John Travolta got their inner Danny Zuko and Sandy Olsson on for a Grease Sing-A-Long in Palm Beach, FL.

Olivia captioned the photo on Instagram with: "First time in costume since we made the movie! So excited!" 

Indeed as were the attendees of the three day event called "Meet N Grease" which will include a Q&A session with the dynamic duo.

Thus today's secret word is "Grease" because, after all "Grease" is the word!

Trouble in the 90210

Torball!
l-r
Jennie Garth, Tori Spelling & Jason Priestley
So in case some of you nostalgia nerds haven't heard there is a six episode reboot of Beverly Hills 90210 coming your way. This being fact, there is also trouble in the fanciest zip code around. "Yes" trouble in the 90210.

On May 16th Showrunner Patrick Sean Smith and several senior writers quit the show. Well May 16th also happens to be Tori Spelling's Birthday. So what's a Spelling to do in such a situation? Let them eat cupcakes!

"Yep" Tori shook it off and celebrated her special day by indulging in cupcakes with co-stars Jennie Garth and Jason Priestley and posted it to her Instagram page, naturally.

Hey what else should a Birthday Girl do in this type circumstance? I ask you? I said I ask you, now answer me damn it! Whatever, moving on...

While I'm not sure what to make of a reboot that is only shooting six episodes and has behind the scenes people quitting in mass quantities, I will at for sure view the premiere episode. At the very least this sounds like a divine train wreck, you know you like to watch.

Mother's Day

Norman Bates
"Psycho"
Happy Mother's Day, to all of you out there who have a paternal role in a child's life. Because as Norman Bates says, well refer to the above image for that quote.

Yeah, I took a turn to the macabre a tad today, but not really, it's more of a nostalgia type of thing. You see there was this Psycho marathon on HBO recently and I sat through it, the danger of channel surfing.
Mother & Son
Norma & Norman Bates
Thus when Mother's Day 2019 arrived I thought it would be a nice twist to honor those out there who know their role by going a little mad, like we all do sometimes 😉

So Cheers to everyone out there who has one of the most important jobs in the world.

Happy Mother's Day to you all!

Nostalgia's For Geeks

Edward vs Courtney
Edward Norton & Courtney Love
Memory is a powerful thing. It can trigger many emotions, and all of them are fine. I was brought back to a time I remember fondly today, the 90's - it was a Golden Era, for me at least. Movies were great and I actually wanted to see them. Music rocked and I actually wanted to listen to it.

So imagine my my 90's pop culture shock and awe when Courtney Love (yes, I was a big Hole fan. OK insert a dirty joke if you must) and Edward Norton, the it boy of that time. Who starred together in one of the better films of the 90's The People vs Larry Flynt became a couple. Imagine it at the time, do it and do it now!!! 

"Yep" I was in a whole lotta 90's fantasia! The Grunge Queen of the 90's paired up with the Actor of the time, damn it does not get any better then this!

I miss that time in my life, in a nostalgic sort of way. But I am at my personal best right here, right now. 

OK, time to be present and carry on minions, but always be, be, be nostalgic!

This Happened: Lizzie McGuire Reunion

Hey Lizzie, Let's Go Bowling!
l-r Lalaine, Hilary Duff & Jake Thomas
With all the chaos going on of late in the world I thought it would be nice to take a break and enjoy a little nostalgia.

Hilary Duff was recently On Air With Ryan Seacrest and revealed how she is on Tinder and went bowling with her mystery date with the moniker Tom and some friends.

She then spilled that those friends were her former Lizzie McGuire co-stars Lalaine and Jake Thomas who played Miranda and Matt.

OK, I admit I have no idea who they are as I never watched Lizzie McGuire, but I do remember it being on air and Duff being everywhere.

I remember liking Hilary in general for being who she is, so, yeah, this makes me feel all warm and fuzzy nonetheless.

Happy Hump Day!
