Hello 2008 - And America!
Hello good people!! Let me start out 2008 by asking your forgiveness. Please forgive me for not blogging about last weeks’ episode! I was busy moving a family of four back to the good old USA from South Africa and you can only imagine how much stuff you accumulate after 6 months on the southern tip of Africa! You don’t even WANT to know how many boxes of incredible, amazing STUFF we shipped back and you REALLY don’t want to EVER have the jet lag I have today.
Note: To go from Los Angeles to South Africa you are in the airplane for 24
hours. That’s just flying time folks. That doesn’t even count the getting off the plane, changing planes, going through customs and all that other FUN stuff that comes with traveling to the other side and other “hemisphere”.
Anyway, with all that going on I missed my blog-deadline and apologize to all of you who have been following along these last few weeks.
So let me get caught up.
This Sunday’s episode deals with some fairly heavy topics. For one, Katie gets an up close and personal look at an AIDS clinic that specializes in teen cases. This disease is wreaking havoc all over Africa and I was very glad that our producers had the guts to take on what is admittedly a tough topic to portray on network television. I think we deal with it fairly and openly.
In addition, Jesse and Mbali’s relationship takes a more serious turn as Mbali basically shows up and says ‘I need a place to stay, it’s not working out with my fiance’. Ooooppppssss! Glad I never got one of those! Especially since the fiance usually shows up and is not all too happy that his girlfriend is staying at YOUR PLACE. Needless to say some fireworks ensue.
As for yours truly, the good doctor is trying to get his giraffes to mate so we can have more animals on the farm. And what’s wrong with that??? Oh and an inspector is showing up to certify our lodge as “green” or not and it is driving my wife to a new form of madness!!! Watch Stephanie Niznik spin out as the pressure builds for her to have the “perfect” lodge....she’s great.
That’s it for Sunday....enjoy the show.

Thanks for continuing to blog after such a looooonnnggg move. I've enjoyed the show and am sad that it seems to be ending. I'm assuming since you are moving back that the news is not good.
Thanks again for a great blog.

Yes, thanks for the info. My family found your show to be the best show on TV, almost a respectable replacement for 7th Heaven (in wholesome family entertainment). I guess that since you just completed moving back, that the show is definitely dead. This is such a shame. The CW has no other shows that come close to competing with your show.
If this is the end, then I we will all miss watching you, Ms. Niznik, the children and all those fascinating animals… If not, then I assume that the strike is the problem and we look forward to your return as Dr. DoLittle and Family

I have since fall frequented the other tv guide http://community.tvguide.com/blogs/Tv-Blogs/700000007 site, but now that you are found and book marked – I hope to see your future entries and also pray for a good season two . . .
