TheTVObserver: Will&Grace's Beverley Leslie

Will&Grace was a great show but Jack&Karen was a fun experience, in our humble observation. Of course Karen and Jack did not have a show, but they provided a lot of laughter to spice up W&G.While observing reruns of Will & Grace, it was funny how we all missed Beverley Leslie and his “Well, Well, Well.....” entrance to every scene.That guy was funny (and still is). We had hoped Sean Hayes would

TheTVObserver: Brian Kinney’s True Love

TheTVObserver in association with Memorable Moments presents a "Special Look at Queer As Folk: Love Triangle between Brian, Michael and Justin", as we unearth Brian Kinney's True Love. This is a series which was daring, yet entertaining and years after its premier, it still generates a lot of interest. We now know why!Jerry Offsay, programming president of Showtime, said that the U.S. version of

TheTVObserver: Oprah Crossed The Line

Our last post on TVSA involved giving away vibrators in the pursuit of sexual satisfaction for grown women. Now forgive me if I go off, but what bloody hell was Oprah thinking agreeing to having this Dr. address her audience with what I consider the most dangerous statement on daytime television. We were LIVE on TWITTER blogging about our observations, when we were traumatized by Oprah and sexual

TheTVObserver: Michael Jackson

One of the world’s greatest superstars has passed-away. But what got our attention was the amount of coverage his death has received, which seems to be trumping everything else on air. This should be expected because this is, one of the world’s greatest stars after all. But what is the intent of the coverage?To honor him, mourn him or cash-in on his death? We observed most of the broadcasts and

TheTVObserver: Bad Mothers

Caring and raising a human being is one of the most taxing experiences one could ever endure. When done well, the rewards are amazing and it brings so much joy that some have described it as “beyond your wildest imagination”.But before you get there, you have to deal with issues surrounding your kids, their choices, and your husband/wife. Meanwhile you are trying to keep yourself sane throughout

TheTVObserver: Adam Lambert

What happens when a “gay” or should one say “camp” looking contestant goes against an All-American looking, Christian and married guy?You get the end of the world….kidding, you have season 8 of Idols.It’s impossible not to observe the obvious, perhaps glaring, fact that this year’s Idols was more of a competition about what America or Americans think of recognizing gay or gay-looking contestants

TheTVObserver: Best Life Discussion

TheTVObserver presents a World Discussion. Everyone is trying their best to live their best life. But the economy is not doing much to help people live their best lives. In fact, more and more families are living their worst lives.One of the things I have learned is the power to learn from others. Thus, in review of Oprah’s Best Life Series which we covered on our blog, I would like to call upon

TheTVObserver: Ellen DeGeneres

Congratulations to Ellen DeGeneres and her talk show on its 1,000th episode. TheTVObserver presents a special OnTheProgram edition, as we celebrate the The Ellen DeGeneres Show's achievement.If given a choice between Tyra and Ellen, I would choose Ellen in a second. Part of the reason would be the host’s ability to make both viewers and her guests feel comfortable.I have enjoyed observing Ellen’s

TheTVObserver: Jackson Is Back

As much as it was exciting to observe Gale Harold on television again after his accident, I could not help but be disappointed. Not in the show, but the storyline which may suggest a shorter life-span for Gale Harold playing Jackson.Jackson's return was exciting and not for the reasons the producers of the show had in mind. Ours was the chance to see Gale Harold back on air, looking healthy and

TheTVObserver: Muti Killings

I had a heated discussion on a subject I consider disgusting. The topic was “muti killing”, which is basically the killing of human beings for ritual medicine by traditional healers. Well to be factual...the traditional healers do not kill they tender the process out. The practice is very prevalent and seems to be growing very fast in South Africa.The debate was the result of a program called

TheTVObserver: Meiki Snapped

There I was enjoying one of my weekends in peace, when a crazy friend who enjoys making fun of every scene under the sun, gave me a call to tell me to watch Muvhango quickly….. am going to love it, he claimed. Huh? Was my response since love and Muvhango cannot be used in the same sentence.So I did, and there I was observing this crazy scene with Meiki and Nomthandazo. But Meiki had a knife and

TheTVObserver: Nandipha & Parsons

Observing Nandipha while she discovers that her husband is having an affair was painful and unexpected. I never thought Parsons would be the one character on this show, to cheat on his wife. He has always remained a loyal and committed character. It seems Vusi, Parsons and Zeb, have earned their honors as cheating husbands.Is this show trying to tell us something about South African men? Like as

TheTVObserver: Oh Dear! Am I Driving?

Am I Driving? Oh Dear! Am sure those are not the words a passenger would like to hear. Reminds me of Oprah saying she does not merging, night driving and the list goes on.Muriel and Mavis are driving along when Mavis reminds Muriel that she is driving. Muriel seems quite perturbed that she is in fact the one doing the driving …This MiWay AD is my personal favorite whilst their infomercials are a

TheTVObserver: OhMiBod

When I wrote the sexual satisfaction blog inspired by Motswako, I never thought that my readers would be lucky enough to have the worlds most sophisticated product manufacture in its category, agree to giveaway something very special to enjoy in the privacy of their homes. This product has appeared on Glamour, The Oprah Winfrey Magazine, Allure, Women's Health, The Voice, Maxim, Wired,

TheTVObserver: Maggie Webster

I have always observed Maggie (Karin Van Der Laag) on Isidingo and noticed her issue with weight. She later left Isidingo to do that boring movie and apparently had to add some weight and she came back a bit bigger than when she left. She has tried over the years, I assume to deal with her weight, but it seems to be la failed attempt.Now this situation of hers has been turned into the subject of
