I think it is so cool that someone has finally decided to make a movie about Dolly Parton's youth and most definitely this song,  "Coat of Many Colors" which was autobiographical. Even as a kid I understood the words and was so impacted by them because I too grew up poor. I don't think that you have to have had a rough childhood however to apprieciate the message and the strength of love

This one may be one of my all time favorite Saturday Night Live opening sequences. It's funny it almost seems like they worked so hard getting this parody of the Democratic debate right that they didn't have time to write the rest of the show as that indeed left a lot to be desired. I really think they nailed the feel and flow of the actual debate and of course the idiosyncrasies of the candidates

If you missed the season premiere of Saturday Night Live you missed some really good comedy, not to mention the antics of Miley Cyrus as host. Earlier today I posted a blog about Hillary Clinton's guest appearance where she played a bartender pouring drink for "Hillary Clinton" being impersonated by cast member, Kate McKinnon. While that was cool , I have to say that Taran Killam's imper

When Saturday Night Live begins a new season you can usually expect something to happen that will get people talking about it on Monday morning, this season opener did not disappoint. Hillary Clinton stopped by to open the show and to be honest wasn't half bad.

If you have not seen this yet, it really is pretty cool. A couple were trying out for "The Voice" together and at least for one of them it was a much bigger night than she had anticipated, not only did they get two judges to turn their chairs for them but she also got a wedding proposal right on national TV.

"You're Fired". Oh how I would have loved to be in the room when NBC said that to Donald Trump. The move away from Trump as the host of Celebrity Apprentice came after his initial statements on immigration and to this point NBC has stood by their decision. To be fair though, Donald Trump would not have been able to do the show anyway due to rules about running for office. NBC at any rate

Jennifer Nettles has joined the cast of NBC’s upcoming TV movie, Dolly Parton’s Coat of Many Colors, alongside Gerald McRaney and Ricky Schroeder. The movie depicts Dolly Parton’s ‘50s-era childhood in the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee...

Blake Shelton performs his song "Bringing Back the Sunshine" in the new video opening of NBC's NASCAR coverage. Nothing goes together better than NASCAR and country music.  And, who better to sing the anthem than the reigning king of Country Music, Blake Shelton...

I had to update my original tribute to Sawyer Fredericks, as the first one wished him good luck in the finals.  Now that we've seen what has happened, I had to tweak this a bit, so here is Part 2!

The excitement is building, even as we speak.  Sawyer Fredericks, from Fultonville, NY.  Right in our own back yard, for God sakes! Can he win The Voice?  And better yet, isn't there a song written about him yet?  Maybe not until now!

So here we are at the finals and while there are four people left in the competition, I think it's safe to say that it will be between our very own hometown boy Sawyer Fredericks for Team Pharrell and former "Steel Magnolia" member Meghan Linsey for Team Blake.

Earlier this year NBC announced they were going to create a series of two-hour TV movies based on different aspects of Dolly Parton's life.  And now we know the first of these movies will be based on Dolly's amazing song "Coat of Many Colors" about a little girl who has to wear rags because her family is so poor...
