tv -SCANDAL


It took me a while to commit to this show but after watching back to back episodes of the entire midseason series - SCANDAL lived up to its name and became my SECOND favorite show of the year!!! 
What a cast!!! plus great writing makes this show tops. The West wing, 24, Dallas and Law & Order all mixed together = sexy, drama and a thriller.
All I can say is I am SO glad this is not a reflection of the current resident of the big house. I received chills when the lead character said " I am not John Edwards" ... This show arch COULD have happened if this writers candidate won the election.

This season is over so if you missed it, catch it on HULU, ABC.com or buy the DVD you will NOT be disappoint.

Scandal is Scandalous and I like it!! A ++++

dvd- Mission Impossible - Ghost Protocol



Tommy Cruise teams up with JJ Abrahms for the 4th go round of impossible missions. Suprise cameos, Action, great special effects, action, Tom in a "Treyvon Martin hoodie", more action. I loved it.
I am not going to say its the best of the series but its better than the third and AS good as the second.
Buy it - A+ - djrr

book- Vanessa Williams - You have no idea

 
Absolutely the best autobiography I have read in years.
Va Vanessa proved that she is not only a pretty face with her Miss America crown but she lived and worked hard for everything she got.
She also reminded us that pretty people have problems too.
This was a great read - even the stories I thought I already KNEW was told with a new angle.
Highly recommended.
Va Vanessa with the singing, acting and writing career did a GREAT job with her mother on this book.
You have no idea = A
