Betty White: The Magic Ingredient
"Wow!" That's all I can say when I think about Betty White 's immense popularity these days. Not many people who started their career in 1939 can boast of the kind of star power she's wielded lately. This 89-year-old scene stealer seems to be a magical ingredient that makes a show or movie more memorable. I won't even pretend like I know why. Even if I did, I wouldn't waste my time or blog real estate, trying to explain it. What I will do however is propose another magical use of her super powers..."24". Yes "24". I propose they introduce White as Jack Bauer's ex-spy grandmother who had gone dark for decades. Just imagine it. Someone who can give Jack Bauer a Gibbs esque slap behind the head and live to tell the tale. Just imagine it...they probably wouldn't even need a great script.
