This past Saturday I had the opportunity to attend a special film festival coordinated by the organization Donate Life and presented by Astealls Transplant. These two organizations specialize in advancing the future of (organ) transplantation. You may wonder why a tv-oholic like myself would have reason to attend this type of film festival.

Then, of course, there were all the added channels. I had basic cable before. And by basic, I mean BASIC. I had the broadcast netorks, …

Years later, the section, The Envelope has moved into a printed form, and the paper helps to put on events before each award season for the …

What does television mean to you? Maybe it’s just a square box or even a wall-mounted unit that you occasionally watch if there is a sports game on or a movie that you missed in the theatres.

June is our anniversary month here at NiceGirlsTV.com, marking one year since we decided to launch a super-girly blog covering all the TV shows we like to watch.
