This is How the Merger Should Work

When the the computers and televisions finish mating their offspring should have certain abilities based on my experience last night.

Watching The Fuse 20 a music video clip show hosted by Danielle Fishel. Not remembering much about Fishel after she left Boy Meets World I wanted to Google her, teehee.


Sure I had my laptop but it was distracting trying to watch TV and search for stuff. Then the shows theme was celebrities in music videos and each video made me want to check that celebrity to see what they're doing now like Christopher Walken from the FatBoy Slim video.

My TiVo already pauses live TV so why not open a window on the screen and allow me to do a search over the internet of that show.
Imagine if you will you're watching a show and can't remember where you've seen the actor who is not the star. During a commercial or pausing the TV you hit a "Query button", the screen splits and you see a search box. Intuitive typing brings a list of everything associated with what your watching. You start to type either the character or actors name and find it within a second and soon your online with all the normal results. Seeing clips from YouTube or interviews from a recent magazine article of the entire filmography at IMDB.

Doing this for every show, every commercial, and every live event should be the goal not a TV that can also be used as computer monitor. I need TV that helps me because let's face it my brain is crammed with so much stuff I need all my stuff to come with a drop down menu.

Seriously ABC Family?

Fallen
Aaron Corbett, an orphaned 18 year old, finds out he's a Nephilim. Which is a half human half angel. If that wasn't bad enough he is the redeemer a special Nephilim that can restore fallen angels allowing them to re-enter the other world.
Aaron has cool adopted parents an autistic adopted brother and a spunky dog. He quickly learns the beneifts of being angelic. He can talk in every language including animal. His dog won't shut up after an dog-meets-car accident he learns how to heal. His guide is another fallen angel played by the great Tom Skerritt.
Now the bad part about being a half breed is that other angels are out to kill him and anyone who has contact with him.
There were some amazing battles and Aaron must accept his new life and leave his family.

I thought this was a series but it is a one time movie with a six hour conclusion coming out in the Summer of 2007. There also is some interactive part online , also I can't get the page to open, but I probably won't bother playing.

ABC Family is really spending some big bucks on these fantasy shows that are not quite kid friendly. I like that.
Next up is Three Moons Over Milford which looks like a Picket Fences with a broken moon.

TV is educational. If you can't learn something everyday your box is broken.
