We are spending time at Disneyland so we can check out the updated Star Tours – The Adventure Continues ride. They have added new scenes that I am really excited to see. We rode this like 5-6 times when we were in Florida at Disney World – my whole family loves this ride – and they are a little lot jealous that I get to go experience it without them. A new destination is added to Star Tours – The Adventures Continue at Disneyland park and Disney’s Hollywood Studios featuring some of the iconic actions and locations showcased in the trailer! This is going to be packed with a lot of fun and craziness and I can’t wait to share it all with you Follow up on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter and the Hashtag #TheLastJediEvent to stay up with all the fun.

While we are there we will be attending a press conference where  Mark Hamill (“Luke Skywalker”), Daisy Ridley (“Rey”), John Boyega (“Finn”), Oscar Isaac (“Poe Dameron”), Adam Driver(“Kylo Ren”), Domhnall Gleeson (“General Hux”), Gwendoline Christie (“Captain Phasma”), Andy Serkis (“Supreme Leader Snoke”), Laura Dern (“Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo”), Kelly Marie Tran (“Rose Tico”) and Director Rian Johnson will all be gracing us with their presence. And we will also get a more exclusive interview with Gwendoline Christie (“Captain Phasma”), Kelly Marie Tran (“Rose Tico”), Laura Dern (“Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo”), and Domhnall Gleeson (“General Hux”).

J.J. Abrams, Tom Karnowski and Jason McGatlin are the executive producers.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi opens in U.S. theaters on December 15, 2017.

In addition to all of the Star Wars fun with #TheLastJediEvent, we will also be seeing some new shows as part of the #ABCTVEvent – so be sure to follow along with that as well!

If all of this wasn’t enough we will also be screening the CHILD SUPPORT premiere & sitting down with an interview with Fred Savage. Say what??? How cool right? This show looks like it is going to be a lot of fun to watch with my kids and I know they are going to ask how they can be on it, lol.

The series premiere of “Child Support,” a one-hour studio-based series from Golden Globe®- and Emmy® Award-winning Ricky Gervais and Banijay Studios North America, will make its debut on FRIDAY, JAN. 5 at 8:00 p.m. EST. Produced by Banijay Studios North America, the primetime series will feature adult contestants and priceless interactions between funnyman Ricky Gervais and a group of five kids who say the most unpredictable things. Hosted by Fred Savage, contestants are asked to answer 10 questions correctly to earn the top prize. If they answer incorrectly, the contestants have a chance to be saved by the five kids who have been asked the same question by Gervais. Ricky Gervais, David Goldberg, Caroline Baumgard and Jeff Krask are executive producers.

We will also screen THE CROSSING premiere and then sit down with Executive Producers & Showrunners Dan Dworkin and Jay Beattie to talk about the new show. I can’t wait to learn more and see the premiere. I love mystery, action shows, and the cast looks awesome!

Dan Dworkin and Jay Beattie are the creators and showrunners of the new ABC series The Crossing. They previously ran and co-created the show Matador for Robert Rodrigeuz’s El Rey network. Their other writing credits include Revenge, Criminal Minds, The Event, and other hit television series.
THE CROSSING
Refugees from a war-torn country seek asylum in a small American fishing town, only the country these people are from is America – and the war they are fleeing hasn’t happened yet. As the government tries to uncover the truth behind this mysterious migration only one thing is certain: The lives of the people here — both the townspeople and these newcomers — will never be the same.
“The Crossing” stars Steve Zahn as Jude Ellis, Natalie Martinez as Reece, Sandrine Holt as Emma Ren, Rick Gomez as Nestor, Jay Karnes as Craig Lindauer, Marcuis Harris as Caleb, Georgina Haig as Dr. Sophie Forbin, Simone Kessel as Rebecca, Kelly Missal as Hannah, Rob Campbell as Paul, Grant Harvey as Roy, Bailey Skodje as Leah, Luc Roderique as Bryce and Tommy Bastow as Marshall.
