Maggie could have accidentally seen it, not Ciara or she could have seen only the conversation piece and not the kissing part.  I think this will have an effect on Ciara.  I don’t know she will turn into Sami, because Sami was older than Ciara when she saw J&M.  But I think it will have an impact on her.  Won’t it be ironic that Hope leaving will have more of a long term effect on Ciara than the kidnapping ever did.

Mel keeps calling Carly a murderer and has really never let Carly explain why.  She said there is no excuse, how will she deal with it when she finds out Carly murdered Lawrence to save Mel’s life?  How long after Carly tells her she is her daughter will it be before that comes out to Mel.  Because you know Mel won’t let her say much, she will flip out and leave!

I don’t think she is nasty.  She really has never done much to harm anyone.  While she cheated on lucas, they were never meant to be together.  Yes, cheating is wrong.  But I wouldn’t call her nasty for that.

Because I don’t think Ari and Brady are the ones who will figure it out.  Mainly because I think Ari will get closer to EJ before the truth comes out.

I do think eventually this will come out and someone will say something to Nicole.  But that won’t be until the end Feb/beginning of March when she is back from her leave.  This is all my guessing.

Up North everyone has a furnace and normally it runs on gas.  Down here in the south we have Heat Pumps, which are AWFUL for heating a house.  Hence why it costs so much.  Now I will admit that because I don’t need the heat on as often my bill is lower in the winter, but this winter my bill has not dropped down as much because of this constant cold weather.  Just had to turn the heat on again

I said I would never watch a new show on CW after they cancelled Angel (then WB), but when Privledged came on I watched it, and well got burned (how did the awful 90210 last over this good show?!?).  So then I was like never again, but I saw that Life Unexpected show and got hooked..sigh.  I did last a long time though without watching any.  My problem is I watch Smallville (started before Angel got cancelled) and therefore see ads for other shows.

I also said I would never watch another new show on NBC, but I love some of the actors and actresses in the new show coming up called Parenthood.  So do I watch to support them, even though I would be supporting NBC too? 

Always a tough decision.  I will admit I have started to watch Cable networks like ABC Family, TNT, Lifetime, etc.  Because they stick with their programs a little more than your NBC, CBS, ABS, etc networks. 

NBC put Leno in the 10 PM slot, so that the production costs were low and they didn’t have to worry about ratings.  That is the bottom line.  NBC was losing money at 10 PM because they can’t get quality programming and KEEP it.  They lose all quality programming because they do not know how to advertise it, so they cancel it instead.  So they figured they would put Jay there, less production costs means they don’t have to make as much money in advertising.  It worked.  NBC was making fine money, but in the meantime they SCREWED the affiiliates big time.  Because now the news had less of a lead-in and therefore they lost HALF their viewers.  The affiliates screamed about this and so NBC has to get rid of Leno at 10 PM.  In the meantime, Conan got half the lead-in that Jay was getting.  So in the end they also screwed Conan.  His rating fall from Jay was not all his fault, in fact you can blame half it on Leno for his poor show.  Do you know that Conan on many nights got MORE viewers than Leno did at 10 PM?  Late night should never get more viewers than the 10 PM slot.

And yes, Jay also had worse guests because many actors and actresses refused to go on his show, because while NBC was also screwing over the affiliates they also were giving actors and actresses less jobs.  Because now there was 5 hours of primetime TV that did not need actors or actresses to produce it.  Most people wanted Jay to fail, so that the 5 hours would not be lost.  They also wanted it to fail so that other networks did not do the same thing in the future. 

NBC messed up, just like they messed up with daytime.  Do you know that whenever they change from a soap to a talk show they lose viewers?  It is not that a talk show or game show bring in more viewers, it costs less to produce.  So in the end NBC makes more money, but they forgot one detail.  How do people know which shows to watch in prime time?  They see an advertisement on a daytime or news show.  Well if you have less viewers watching your crappy talk show, you have less viewers seeing what is on at night.  If I was a good new show, I would avoid NBC.  Because they don’t have the viewers during the day or during late night (because of Jay now) to get enough viewers to know their show exists.  So most new shows fail on NBC, whether they are good or not.  While soaps is a dying industry, do you notice NBC has only had one soap while all the other networks have kept at least 2?  Other networks know what they are doing, NBC does not.  If they did, they would have NEVER put Leno on at 10 PM.  Other networks though NBC was crazy for what they were doing.

I also did not watch either guy.  I have never liked Jay and well, Conan is just not me.  I do have to admit I did watch the last two weeks on and off, and Conan is pretty funny, when he has something to be funny about.  And yes, the $4+ million was a joke, most people knew that.  Other people e-mailed him telling him off for during that.  Do you really think any network wouldn’t have a budget and make expenses that high not need to be approved?  NBC is stupid, but not that stupid.

A lot of my family is from Morgantown, WV and they are always saying they ran into this person or that person.  Or they heard this person was here at this point doing this.  I am wondering if Salem is one of those big towns that everyone gossips and everyone knows everyone.  That is how I feel when I am in Morgantown.  I don’t know how the kids can stand it, because they can never get away with anything without someone in the family finding out – lol
