What's your favorite TV show? ABC offers excellent programming choices. Do you like sitcoms such as Modern Family or dramas such as Scandal? How about Quantico? Whatever you have a taste for is on ABC. Lately, I've been consuming episodes of Quantico on demand.

I can't get enough of Priyanka Chopra. The Quantico star is someone to write home about. Isn't she something special? This former Miss World may be the hottest babe on TV.

I hope they give Priyanka a pay raise because she's too good to lose. Moreover, the actor is the main reason we watch Quantico, right? Let's face it, Chopra presents a hot body of work like Sofia Vergara. TV viewers are treated to one of a kind good looks.

Still, if you go beyond her charming good looks, you'll discover she's extremely talented too. She's already made a name for herself in Bollywood. Right now, she's taking her turn on Hollywood Boulevard.

Are you looking forward to watching her performance in Baywatch or what? Picture Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron both vying for her attention on the silver screen. They already publicly admitted they're infatuation with her. Who do you think is more her type? That's right Priyanka Chopra can have any man she likes.

Who else can't get enough of Priyanka Chopra? The Indian beauty is easy on the eyes. Additionally, she's devoted to developing her gifts.

Clearly, Chopra knows she's one of the best in showbiz. Plus, Priyanka can handle the entertainment world's pressure. Her Bollywood experience counts for something.

Chopra can convince anyone of anything. Whatever she's selling, people are buying. They eat her up like chocolate chip cookies. They need more of her sugar. The Bollywood to Hollywood actress is maximizing her potential and fulfilling her dreams. What is more, she's making the man very rich.

Golden Globes 2017 Recap

Did you watch the Golden Globes? The Golden Globe Awards are a precursor to the Oscars. Tonight's award show was watched by approximately 20 million people. Maybe, you saw the red carpet as well.

Jimmy Fallon made a grand entrance. But the night began with Aaron Taylor-Johnson winning Best Supporting Actor for Nocturnal Nights. Later, Billy Bob Thornton gave an emotional speech.

Then, Tracee Ellis Ross graced the stage winning for Blackish. Atlanta starring Donald Glover earned the award for Best TV series. And Hacksaw Ridge received top recognition. Additionally, Sarah Paulson earned her award for the People V. O.J. Simpson.

You couldn't have asked for better presenters than Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon. Gina Rodriguez represented for the Latina women. Do you watch Jane the Virgin? Viola Davis received hard earned credit for her performance in Fences.

How could you miss the amazingly stunning Sofia Vergara on stage in her see through dress? Give credit to Carrie Underwood and Sting too. Moreover, Ryan Gosling's and Emma Stone's La la Land was given major accolades. Did Ryan Gosling give a nice acceptance speech or what?

Goldie Hawn and Amy Schumer shared the stage but Hawn hogged the microphone. Tom Hiddleston scored big for the Night Manager. Claire Foy won on a large scale for the Crown. It was great seeing Casey Affleck win Best Actor for Manchester by the Sea.

Finally, Brad Pitt introduced Moonlight, which was nominated for 6 Golden Globes. Moonlight deservingly won for the best drama category. However, the spotlight shined brightest on Meryl Streep. It was definitely Meryl's moment.

Everybody did a fantastic job. It was a wonderful show. There was a ton of glitz and glamor beginning on the red carpet. They arrived in spectacular fashion inside stretch limousines. The biggest stars showed up, although everybody in showbiz and the entertainment world did not take home an award.

I think Jimmy Fallon was awesome. A lot of excitement filled the air. My main critique is where was the music? They could have used more of the music scores. What do you think? Who had the best smile? Who wore the best dress?

How Incredible Is Melissa Benoist?

How Incredible Is Melissa Benoist?

We are reentering Supergirl season 2 and it's safe to say Melissa Benoist is still super. I began binge watching Supergirl this week. And I've concluded that Melissa Benoist was put on earth to become Kara Zor-El on television. How does she do it, episode after episode? She's absolutely incredible.

You can see the determination in her eyes. Melissa Benoist seeks glory as Supergirl. She belongs in the DC Comics. It is her destiny. No doubt Henry Cavill aka Superman is impressed by the former Glee star. Don't forget that she is a multi-talented celebrity.

The triple threat actress is best suited and well-equipped. In other words, Benoist is up for the challenge at hand. So prepare yourself for a wild ride. She'll flap her cape around and fly you high like a Boeing 777. Melissa is reaching new heights by the second.

It's amazing watching Melissa in action. Whatever she touches turns to gold. I'm looking forward to her future movies. Moreover, the Hollywood star deserves a pay raise.

She's in a similar position as Hilary Duff. All she needs is one big blockbuster or an Academy Award, and she's set for life. Supergirl has a shelf-life, but Melissa Benoist's name can go down in history.

Benoist digs deep down into the heart and soul of a character. You should check out her performance in Whiplash. Not only does she play a wonderful supporting actress, she's a terrific love interest.

Maybe, Supergirl could play Batman's lover now that the Batman v. Superman saga is completed. How's that for a script? Superman and Batman end up as brother-in-laws. You get my drift (they're family). Unfortunately, the likely ending scenario is like Scarface. Do you remember the scene when Al Pacino's character Tony Montana discovered his sister Gina in lingerie at his best friend's home? They had recently got married. That's a story for another day.

Anyway, I say all this to say Melissa Benoist is absolutely incredible.

Are You Addicted to Power TV?

My brother first told me about the Power TV show on Starz back in 2014. Now, my sister watches it and everybody in my circle does so too. For what it's worth, I've watched every episode in every season; and, I can attest to the TV show's exceptional quality.

I think anybody concerned with gaining street knowledge should watch Power because there are morals to their stories. Although Tommy should be idolized, you do realize that he's going to end up in a body-bag eventually? Also, you might as well conclude that Ghost is dead already since everybody has took a stab at killing him since season 1. There's clearly a plot to kill.

But James St. Patrick is strong. He won't die. Remember what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Omari Hardwick's character is fundamentally fit to be a drug kingpin for years to come. And dying right now is bad for business, specifically the marketing department.

It's the characters that give life to the story. Who's your favorite character? Isn't Omari Hardwick the best actor? And Joseph Sikora is the shit too. But my favorite character is SPOILER ALERT... Lobos (sorry to see you go.)

I like Lobos aka Jefe (translated as Boss in Spanish) the best because he did the least amount of work and reaped the most amount of money. While everybody was doing the dirty work, Lobos kept his hands and feet manicured and pedicured, respectively. They feared and respected him the most.

The writers room on Power come up with incredible ideas. The writers don't stop developing their story lines. There is always something unexpected in the script. Moreover, the directors and producers take their time positioning key players and putting key pieces in place. I love creator Courtney A. Kemp.

Finally, the music contributes significantly to Power's greatness. Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson created a few good songs for the show. Big Rich Town and I'm the Man are on my playlist right now.

Are you addicted to the TV show? It is a superior product for certain. Everything about Power is excellent.

Ranking the Real

BY: GURU JAY

Do you watch daytime TV? Maybe you're watching the Real right now. The Real is one of my favorite talk shows. There’s no other show quite like it.

I love the Real cast because they don’t hold anything back. Every last one of them makes a contribution. But, let’s be real...who does the best job?

1. Loni Love

I’m partial toward comedians, so Loni Love gets the edge. Plus, she contributes more value to the show because of her humor. Who could forget her performance in Mall Cop 2, where she brings down the house?

Loni Love reminds me of a younger Whoopi. Does anyone else see the familiarity. They both have a similar style and stage presence. Loni controls the set like an air traffic controller.

2. Tamera Mowry

The Sister Sister starlet has transformed into a reality TV supernova. Without question, Tamera adds class and a mixture of spice. We value her opinions because she’s honest about her life.

The wife and mother is relatable to her audience. Tamera opens up and tells the truth about herself. What is more, she’s a strong believer in God.

3. Tamar Braxton  

As the youngest sibling, I can identify with Tamar. She is smart, talented, generous, and kind. Braxton would rank higher but she’s absent sometimes. On the other hand, absence makes the heart grow fonder.  

4. Adrienne Bailon

Adrienne always comes up with sensational stories. She shows appreciation and gives gratitude. Perhaps, the most perky of the bunch- no one questions her spirit. Bailon loves dancing and many single men love dancing with her.   

5. Jeannie Mai

Fashion expert Jeannie Mai specializes in clothes, so she’s the fashionable #5. In order to survive, people need clothing. And in order to thrive, you want an eye for fashion like Jeannie Mai helping you fit in your clothes.

What’s your ranking of the Real cast? Tell me in the comments.

The Like Factor of Michael Strahan

What makes you like someone? Why do certain people have a special effect on you? I believe there is something called The Like Factor.

You’re either likable or you’re not. You have it or you don’t. And Michael Strahan has it. Plus, the personality is a likable guy.

He has a big stature minus the big head. All this means he wears big pants with the deep pockets. He also wears many hats. Best known for Live! with Kelly and Michael. Right now he hosts Good Morning America.

Next up on his plate is serving as host of $100,000 Pyramid. Have you seen the commercials? He says something along the lines of “this is not what mama had in mind when she told me to get a summer job.” That’s another reason I like Michael Strahan.

The celebrity cares a great deal about his family.  He speaks highly of his father who is an army veteran. We have that in common. Army Brats stick together.

Moreover, Michael Strahan is becoming more like LL Cool J. Ladies love this most eligible bachelor. It wouldn’t surprise me if ABC arrange for him to appear on the hit TV show- The Bachelor.   

At this point in time, Michael Strahan can bank on his good name. Frankly, he is the bank with a $55 million net worth. Who wants a bailout?

For the most part, he keeps it light. He’s not afraid to try new things. In Entertainment, it’s important to be adjustable. That’s why I go with the flow.

The Like Factor of Michael Strahan has a very strong effect on people. His charisma plays a large role in his appeal to a wide audience. He’s famous for his sharp intellect and powerful work ethic too. All these qualities and more define his status.
