Jennifer Zane's Top 10 TV shows, HOT PURSUIT 3, & GC giveaway!

Jennifer Zane's Top 10- Favorite TV shows of my youth-

My kids watch really BAD cartoons on TV. I don't even understand the premise behind them. It's not like the good ol' days and Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner. After school, I used to take about an hour and sit in front of the TV (black and white with no remote) with my can of Pringles. Here are my favorite shows from the 70's and 80's:

10. The Brady Bunch- I wanted to be Cindy Brady oh so desperately. Her hair! The blond pigtails that were perfect. I had/have dark hair that is naturally curly, which means no style. My hair constantly looks like I went through a wind tunnel so I dreamt of her cute little do.

9. Tom and Jerry- The best cartoons ever, especially the really old ones that harken to post WWII or the late 60's ones in space. These cartoons are so good, they don't need words.

8. Bugs Bunny- Talk about wit! I mean, Sir Loin of Beef?

7. The Three Stooges- Sheer perfection.

6. The Addams Family- I always wanted a Thing in my house. Imagine how much could get done if you had an extra hand? Literally!

5. The Munsters- This was obviously an attempt to extend the fame of the Addams Family, but it worked. I loved how there was a secret lair under the stairs and that Grandpa was a complete nut job. And, of course, Marilyn had the perfect hair (see #1)

4. Gilligan's Island- I go camping for one night with the family and I look like I got lost in the wild for a week. Ginger is still wearing the 60s version of Spanx and her hair is teased into a perfect poof. (again, see #1). Remember Lovey Howell? Yeah, well, because of her, I call my kids Lovey.

3. The Dukes Of Hazzard- Friday nights, oh was Bo Duke a dream!

2. Dallas- It came on right after the Dukes Of Hazzard. I was in love with Bobby Ewing but I wanted to be Lucy. I mean, the hair! Blond and in these cascading waves of sheer perfection (are you seeing a theme with wanting blond, gorgeous locks!?)

1. Scooby Doo- Seriously, this is the best. It transcends time. The vintage 60's/70's episodes with the Three Stooges and the Harlem Globetrotters are classic. Even today, my kids will sit through these.

Do you have similar favorites? Are there different shows you remember?

Hot Pursuit 3 


Anna Scott has given Nick everything. Her heart, her body, and the truth about her past. But every action has consequences, and now, thanks to her, Nick is in more trouble than ever. He's running from his old boss, distracted from his undercover work, and secretly negotiating with the most powerful mafia boss in New York. She knows the only way to free him is to step into the spotlight once more and face her enemies. She is convinced that Nick must stay in the shadows to be safe, but the stubborn man isn't cooperating. Once she learns the truth about him--that he's really Jake Griffin--she realizes that his sense of honor and duty will get him killed. Protecting the man she loves is the only thing that matters to her now, no matter the cost. 

Jake Griffin is in love with a woman on the run. The woman he knew and fell in love with was an illusion born of desperation. Anna Scott has powerful enemies and blood in her past, but neither can deny the passion between them. Grif will do whatever it takes to help her, including recruiting a notorious killer to help him. Grif will walk the razor's edge between right and wrong, good and evil, truth and lies, because Anna Scott is everything to him now, and he'll play any game, take any risk to save her from the monsters in her past, and from herself.
