TV Chit Chat - May 2008


I don’t know about you guys, but I’m definitely one of those people who take notice when a certain song makes the scene in my favorite TV show. It may be subconscious at first, but when you suddenly realize you’re laughing or crying and the characters aren’t even saying anything, that’s when you think, whoa-wait. I love that song! It fits perfectly! Where can I get it?


Well my friends, that is why I decided to share with you some of my favorite songs heard on TV this year. And what better a time to start it up than summer, when we’re all frustratingly trying to distract ourselves from the wait of season premieres?

So to kick off the Song of the Week Saturday, here’s a song called “Lucky” by Bif Naked. Moonlight fans, you’ll know the second you hear the chorus exactly where you’ve heard this song before…

free music


For the rest of you, this song was featured on Moonlight’s episode #13: Fated to Pretend. A.k.a. “The rooftop kiss”. View the clip below to see how the song was used. (Spoiler Alert! If you haven't seen the whole episode yet and don't want to know the end, don't watch! )



Perfect! I can't hear the song anymore without thinking of Mick and Beth...

"See" the new XF2 trailer online

May 31st 2008 04:06

With only 14 more days before the XF2 trailer premieres with M. Night Shyamalan's new movie, The Happening (They're sure taking their time in promoting the movie don't you think? I've been seeing trailers for Get Smart since last summer...) 35mm film scans of the long-awaited trailer are appearing online already. (Spoiler alert!! View pics and descriptions here). I can't wait to really watch the trailer in all it's theater glory! As much as I know this movie is coming, I think it'll finally set in that Mulder and Scully are really back when I see them on the big screen!

Sad news for comic fans. Harvey Korman, most notably remembered for his hilarious roles on the Carol Burnett show with fellow comedian Tim Conway, died Thursday at the age of 81. According to reports, Korman died of complications connected to an abdominal aortic aneurysm he suffered several months ago.

The Emmy award wining actor who I loved watching try not to crack up in front of an audience will be greatly missed!

Here's is one of my favorite skits of his.
