This year there’s a date already marked down on the calendar: February 2nd. That’s when the first episode of Lost, a series which has all my friends glued to their computers preparing special reunions and marathons, will be shown.

The series starts on February 2nd and with it perhaps dreams, desires, hopes or god-knows-what will end. I’d love us to place bets on the best series of the year and the ones which may end up being massive hits in 2010.

I’m hooked on The Office. It’s the kind of series you can watch in the small hours with your last drink or before going to bed after a long hard day studying. You’ll laugh just the same. Read more…

The latest and most famous vampire saga in the world, Twilight, is back on cinema screens worldwide, with the public flocking to the cinemas eager to see what adventures are in store for its young characters.

New Moon is the title of the second instalment of the saga written by Stephenie Meyer three years ago. It was a huge success with more than 5.3 million copies sold worldwide.

The second film once again stars the three main actors adored by many young people: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner. The two guys are a huge hit with fans, especially Pattinson.

It’s not only TV series like Sex and the City, Gossip Girl or The Beautiful Life (Mischa Barton’s new TV project), that speak the language of fashion: reality shows have also jumped on the bandwagon of trends, models, stylists and designers.

America’s Next Top Model (with a format which has been exported to European countries like the UK, Holland, Norway, Sweden or France), Project Runway (which also has a British version), The City, or The Rachel Zoe Project are clear examples of the current importance and appeal of this discipline on the small screen.

With only a simple internet connection and some free time, you will be able to find out about all the ins and outs of the fashion industry from all angles and in the comfort of your own home.
