TLC

Some back and forth emails with my Williamsburg "roommate" for this weekend, Lydia, reminded me

That I’ve been wanting to post about this for some time.

Long before Miss America announced that this years pageant would be shown on TLC, I have been watching TLC. A huge fan of What Not to Wear, I was even more excited to hear that fashion gurus Stacy and Clinton would be appearing on the first episode of “Miss America: Reality Check” (and let’s hope I get out of Williamsburg rehearsal in time to catch the first episode).

In any case, since I’m an avid watcher, I’ve noticed that TLC has gone above and beyond in promoting the pageant. Although some of the commercials make the girls look dumb (such as one which features Miss LA holding up a placard with a smiley face answering that she doesn’t know what she was thinking) I am really excited about how far the channel has gone in promoting Miss America. I think I’ve seen at least fifty commercials advertising the upcoming pageant and show, and I hope it’s attracting some of TLC’s viewers who might not otherwise watch Miss America. Lydia and I both noticed the little Miss America crown on top of the TLC logo in the corner of the channel, too.

I really hope this is a huge success. I am definitely thrilled about tuning in to watch the reality show and Miss America! It’s hard to believe how fast it has come!
