Ellen and How She Brightens My Day

You know... I really really love the Ellen show. I mean love it.

I am not necessarily a talk show fan. I DVR Oprah now every day but then I just click info to see if it is something I would enjoy learning about or reflecting on. So 50% of the time I just click delete. The other thing is --- often Oprah is pretty deep philosophically speaking; which I will be honest, I love that. My head is usually interested or there... but sometimes... you just want the fun, the light hearted fluffy stuff that takes you away from wondering how to improve your life.

I had enjoyed Rosie O'Donnell's talk show for the years it was on. But the main reason I enjoyed it was because she seemed like a real person. Someone you could relate to. She would often be starstruck sitting there interviewing someone. (I did not enjoy her on the View the couple of times I saw that with her on it!!!! Argh! who was that person?)

Ellen never seems starstruck. I miss that...

oops, I digress. Please accept my apologies.

Back to Ellen.

From the moment her monologue begins... which isn't that awesome!!! Right away, within moments of tuning in, you get bang for your buck. Like way to go Ellen! You know we love you and we wanna laugh dammit and so you bring it! day after day! gotta love it!

and then, the dancing, gotta love that too! Even though that guy, I honestly forget who, did a spoof on his show re: the dancing and said she prob. does it as a time filler... he said it jokingly. But I love it! you have just been given joy from the monologue and then there is energy! she has this energy and the audience is charged and there is just this great energy that somehow comes across to those of us sitting on our butts at home.

And you know... Ellen is pretty real and relatable herself. She gabs away to her guests like they are all real people who deserve her complete attention. Whether a Mega-star or a person from Youtube or an audience member. When she plays games or attempts cooking (LOL) or when she shows us her heart by sharing her feelings about animals or something else that disturbed her. I love her all the more when she shows that side.

You gotta watch this! It rocks! So funny... just click these words I have hyperlinked them to the vid of her demonstrating the below.... I laughed SOOOO HARD and I was crying too... :)

I laugh every single day with her. But this week... I could not stop laughing when she was in the Hawaii Chair... oh my god did I laugh! and damn if they aren't going to sell some of those chairs as a result... because as stupid as it is... and when she poured the water and talked on the phone as well as interviewed her guests in it... it's ridiculous-ness was so apparent... it looked so friggin' fun. Honestly! I wanted one or better yet to try one. (and no! I will not be ordering one!)

Anyway, I had to blog about her show and her as well. She brightens my day! and she makes each crappy winter day just a little bit brighter. My hubby, my kids and myself: all Ellen fans and proud of it!

keep it up Ellen! :)

(yah, I know she won't be reading this but I can send the love out dammit! don't criticize me, eh?)
