There are certain types of people that copy celebrities right down to their diamond rings. I’ve never been one of those people but I found this tidbit interesting. I just heard a report that Angelina Jolie is watching episodes of Dr. Quinn: Medicine Woman while awaiting the birth of her twins in a hospital in France. I wonder if Dr. Quinn: Medicine Woman will now make a huge comeback because of these rumors, even if they aren’t true. I like Dr. Quinn & all but I don’t know what I’d do if they show suddenly became popular among Angelina Jolie fans. Actually, I do know. I’d laugh…a lot. If Angelina can make Dr. Quinn: Medicine Woman cool, it’s a testament to her star power.

I’m fascinated by the show The Baby Borrowers. Teen couples who are dating & want to have kids are given a chance to take care of children through different stages of development for several days. If I was a parent, I don’t think that I’d lend my kid to teens to watch. However, they do have a nanny on hand to keep the children from danger & the parents get to watch the teens from a camera.

Then the teens switch to the next age group. The one thing I don’t understand about this show is that at the end they have to take care of the elderly. That is not usually in the parenting description. Overall, I think the show is very eye opening & will hopefully bring the reality of parents to these young couples.

I’ll admit that most of what I learned in history classes has since leaked out of my brain. So, I actually learn a lot from watching The West Wing DVDs that I bought on sale. I can only hope that they are historically accurate. Otherwise I’m just filling my head with more useless knowledge. However, the one thing I get from almost every episode is that I love my county. So, they are worth watching. Yes, TV impresses me that much.
