The Dish

Every Saturday Robin and I watch "The Dish" on the Style network. "The Dish" is hosted by Danielle Fishel. Danielle grew up on TV playing the girlfriend on "Boy Meets World". It was a typical 90's sitcom and really didn't give any indication of the Danielle we discovered on "The Dish" "The Dish" is a kindof a knockoff of "Talk Soup" but it takes on fashion, lifestyle news and reality tv and it is a hoot! The writing is snappy and intelligent and fast paced. We enjoy watching it on a very basic level because it is taking on all the funny issues from shows we watch like "Real Housewives, Anywhere" but we also are just amazed at how funny Danielle is. She has an incredibly smooth delivery and it seems absolutely effortless as she moves from segment to segment. Plus she has a huge range of accents that she can do at the drop of a hat. Kindof like that chick on youtube that introduces herself in a bunch of different accents with no pauses. I drive Robin nuts by constantly pausing to say how funny stuff was and then I make her watch it again with me. I haven't quite become so obsessed that I watch it over and over and memorize the bits but hey, who knows what I'll have time for when I retire?
