The World Is Fading Away



_____


Betty White's Off Their Rockers last night was so funny I laughed out loud all through it.... but Good Lord, I had to sit through what seemed to be more than 100 inane and asinine commercials. Don't know if it was worth it or not.

Yeah, it was.

  1. Mariska is more beautiful than her mother. Mariska is a natural beauty.

    1. I agree wholeheartedly. And she is so talented, too. I find myself admiring the character she plays and rooting for the fictional detective.

      Thanks for the comment.

  2. We are loving the Betty White show.
    Last night was definitely laugh out loud funny.
    And we "tape" it, to skip the commercials.

    1. Yep . . . definitely worth missing "The Middle" at the same time over on ABC.
