Oncoming Media Onslaught: The Royal Baby
Like a squirrel storing up for winter there comes a time when avid internet readers must hoard little acorns of entertainment for the onslaught of something so big, it will dominate most every site. I personally will be fine during this time. Between the Royal Baby and the Emmy nominations I have plenty to read and react to. But if you could care less about the future English monarch, or, shudder, don’t watch that much TV you may want to be prepared. You may be thinking that the sites you read won’t mention it much but I find that if the media event is big enough it will be everywhere. After all every January football somehow finds its way into my internet reading. If I may make a suggestion www.fullhousereviewed.com is a project started several years ago to review each individual episode of Full House. If you like to bathe in nostalgia this may be a good way to pass the time. There may be no better antidote to the Britishness of the royal birth than the Tanners. The show features self centered characters, over broad humor and laugh tracks, and more embarrassing 90’s clothing choices that you could shake a glow stick at. Ahhh America. So bookmark those long articles, dig into those archives, and settle in. Because winter is coming... That is meant to be a call back to the opening sentence and not a suggestion the baby could be named Winter, though that would be awesome. Happy Royal Baby Week.
