Tonight’s TV Spotlight…Tuesday, October 6, 2009

If you’re reading this I guess it means you survived Monday night TV. I know for many of you, Tuesday is just as busy. My advice? Drink plenty of fluids and eat your veggies. It’s fuel for another big night of TV.

By now you’ve probably heard that we’ve got a special treat for fans of THE OFFICE tonight. John Krasinski will be stopping by GMMR at 8pm EST for a LIVE chat. I hope you’ll be able to join
us. I’m already a bundle of nervous energy, but I know it will be great! To set a reminder for the chat, click here: John Krasinski Live Chat.
