Thoughts on Appearing on Television

I'm in need of immediate plastic surgery. I hope my girlfriend wasn't watching; I don't want her to find out how bad I look.

There's a guy in the studio letting you know which camera to look at. There's another guy in the control booth who doesn't like the guy in the studio, so he will immediately switch to the camera you aren't looking at.

I have a face made for radio, and a voice made for blogging.

I'm not ready for my closeup Mr. DeMille.

Time flies while the camera is rolling.

Hubert Smith is just as easy going and affable off camera as he is on camera...except for the 45 seconds or so before the show starts. Then he's like a general marshaling his troops before a major offensive.

It is nearly impossible to have a substantive discussion on anything when you're limited to 30 minutes. Or maybe that's just me.

TV is fun!

Maybe we should put together a Weekly Blogger's Roundtable and air it weekly on CTV. We have some bloggers with performance experience.

The more I learn about Knoxville politics, the happier I am to live in Sevier County.

You guys looked adorable. The show was fun. I think a regular blogger show would be interesting. Sometimes it would be silly. Sometimes it would be feisty. It would be better than some of the stuff on community tv.

Congratulations!

I took a TV production class at UT ages ago, so I'm better behind the camera!

That's a good idea though...another outlet to get readership up.

I'm definitely up for a weekly blogger roundtable!
