I've always been a bigger fan of daytime TV than I perhaps care to admit.  I've been sick this year already more than any other time in my life, providing me with ample time to take in what's up on television during the daytime hours. 

The more I watch Ellen the more I actually like it.  It's sweet in a non sappy way, tough to pull off on daytime TV. Maybe I am getting old and soft, but I enjoy all the dancing on her show. It's energetic, it's fun, it's spirited, it's all-inclusive.

Wow.  Just thought I'd let you all in on what you are missing out on in daytime television.
