Wasn’t Hulu’s How I Met Your Father Premiere Spectacular Entertainment?

Do you like entertainment? Here I like to inform you as well as entertain. I’m a celebrity blogger who enjoys seeing the stars shine.

Right now, I can’t get enough of Hilary Duff, so I wrote this blog about Hulu’s How I Met Your Father season 2 premiere. How I Met Your Father should be on everybody’s radar by now. If you like lighthearted television comedies, then this TV show will have your wheels spinning. There is a ton of content you can consume in season 1: 10 episodes to be exact and they all pack a punch. Remember each episode is somebody’s precious baby, just like each blog post I write. Read on for my spin on things, specifically season 2. 

First of all, Hilary Duff plays the lead character Sophie. Next, the story is set in present day New York City (NYC). An older, wiser Sophie narrates the story to her unseen son over a phone call via her home in the year 2050. Yeah, this show is futuristic alright. All I’m saying is 27 years is a long time from now. Okay, so there are other characters besides Duff who make the sitcom pleasing too. I really like Valentina, played by Francia Raisa and Ellen, played by Tien Tran. There are so many talented actors on the show it isn’t funny. Where do I start name dropping?

SPOILER ALERT: the father returns to New York from Australia in the premiere. And so, the lead character follows her man’s lead and rekindles her romantic life with him. Like luggage, there’s so much to unpack. There are layers upon layers to this story. For instance, before How I Met Your Father, How I Met Your Mother came into being. Wasn’t Hulu’s HIMYF season 2 premiere spectacular entertainment?

Put Aubrey Plaza on the To Do List This Weekend!

What are you doing this weekend? Do you want to have some fun? Read this!

Put the 2013 The To Do List actor on the 2023 To Do List! I’m referring to the Hollywood star Aubrey Plaza. She is hosting NBC’s Saturday Night Live on January 21, 2023. Here at Guru Jay Entertainment, we’re going to see to it that she shines as bright as possible. I write about celebrities because I like celebrating. Aubrey Plaza is someone who excites the audience. You come to expect great things from this entertainer. I love her work. She works hard and it shows. Some may even say she’s a little showoff, but I disagree. 

So, where did this celebrity come from? Well, we know she was a regular on Parks and Recreation. But did you also know she was an intern on Saturday Night Live in 2005? I found that out via watching the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. The point is everybody starts from somewhere. Where you go is up to factors: some beyond your control and others within. I like Plaza’s touch to productions. Have you seen the star perform in Fx’s Legion? 

If you enjoy comedy and Elizabeth Olsen, I encourage you to watch Ingrid Goes West. It’s an intriguing plot with dynamic characters and a nice setting. Also, if you want to see some of Plaza’s newer material, queue Black Bear and Emily the Criminal. Lastly, everybody is talking about the actress in the White Lotus. 

Plus, the comedic actor’s body of work is full of successes. If she had a gym franchise, it would be worth over a billion dollars. I’m looking forward to seeing her SNL performance. It’s long overdue.

Let’s have some fun this weekend and watch SNL hosted by Aubrey Plaza. LET AUBREY PLAZA SHINE.

The Last of Us Is More Than a Game Now: It’s a TV Hit!

By: Guru Jay

The first episode of HBO’s the Last of Us aired two days ago. Could a pilot episode launch any better than this one? If you haven’t seen it yet, or you want to know additional details, keep reading for more. In my opinion, the series couldn’t have debuted at a more perfect time. It’s 2023 and a whole lot is happening in the world. Based on a popular video game, HBO’s new TV show is relevant is edgy. In “When You’re Lost in the Darkness,” the episode goes deep into the zombies/ fungus themes.

It begins in 1968, then goes into 2003 (where all hell breaks loose in Texas), finally it comes around to Boston 2023. The actors do a fine job conveying the mission statement. From the lead character to the extras, everyone plays a vital role in this masterpiece. How does the series compare to the video game? Do you want to play the game now that you’ve seen the TV show? If you like television, the Last of Us is the TV show for you. This is not your typical Hollywood story. I believe HBO was surprised by the pilot’s success. I am looking forward to watching more episodes. Do you want to read a recap of some of the season? Is this your favorite new TV program?

The main question that is on everybody’s mind is how did we get here? The Last of Us is at a point of no return. The post-apocalyptic plot is full of twists and turns. What do you think is the best scene? How does this compare to The Walking Dead? Like the Walking Dead had, I see the Last of Us as having enormous potential. Right now, stars are being born on the TV show. All the hard efforts are noticed. Putting together something of such high quality takes blood, sweat, and tears. In summary, the Last of Us is more than a game now. It’s a TV hit!

Netflix’s Ginny & Georgia Season 2 Commentary: Good Stuff

By: Guru Jay

Right now, the number one TV show on Netflix is Ginny & Georgia. Have you seen it? If not, you don’t know what you’re missing out on. It’s good stuff. Currently, Ginny & Georgia is in the second season. If you haven’t already seen the first season already, you might want to watch a few episodes before seeing the new ones. Netflix released the show on January 5. And now, 10 days later, everybody is talking about the success of Ginny & Georgia. It is great television. TV shows come and go. Let’s hope this one stays the course. For those who haven’t seen it, I’ll describe the show for you. First, there’s Antonia Gentry as Ginny. Her real name is Virginia in the Netflix series. Then, there’s Georgia played by Brianne Howey. They are both complex characters and the story is not so simple. Ginny is Georgia’s young daughter. It’s an interesting story because her mother is white, and her father is black. But her younger brother is white as well. So, this keeps unwrapping layers as you dig deeper.

I don’t want to give away too much of the plot, so I’ll write only about my impressions of the characters. If you love actors performing at the top of their crafts, then this TV show will have your heart pulsating. There are so many characters to like. Besides the two main characters, I like Zion Miller, Joe, Abby, Norah, Ellen Baker, Marcus Baker, and Mayor Paul Randolph. It is an amazing sight how the actors gel on screen. It is like the 1950s all over again with milk and chocolate chip cookies. But this time, it’s 2023 and things are turned upside down for the most part. Is the chemistry we see on film fake? Or is the television screen telling the truth? Whatever the case, Ginny & Georgia season two has become the number one TV show on Netflix this weekend. And what’s more, its motion pictures are set firmly in minds and hearts around the globe.

Have you ever played on a game show? How would winning massive amounts of money feel to you? Could you handle the shock of an influx of cash?

Jeopardy! is first on our list. The trivia game show deserves the number one spot. People dream of becoming a Jeopardy! Champion. That’s why contestants devote tremendous time and effort to the show. Plus, it’s fun playing along at home.

Let’s Make a Deal wraps up our list. This game show hosted by Wayne Brady has a storied past. Is Wayne Brady the best or what? He is a multi-talented musician, actor, and comedian. Brady brings the X factor element to the game show.
