It is the story of six teenagers trapped in a hospital with debilitating health issues, and they aren’t going to let that stop them from living life to the fullest.
Leo (Charlie Rowe) is the makeshift leader of the group. He has cancer and it has taken his leg. He is the one that brings everyone together and the one they listen to.
Dash (Astro) is Leo’s best friend and he has Cystic fibrosis. He is the cool one.
Charlie (Griffin Gluck) has been in there the longest. Even though he is in a coma that doesn’t stop him from being part of the group.
Tonight he gets a new roommate. Kara (Zoe Levin) is a bitchy cheerleader who doesn’t seem to have a heart. But we find out she does have one because she needs a new one.
Emma (Ciara Bravo) is anorexic, and up until Kara arrived, she was the only girl there. She had all of the boys’ attention and now she has to share it.
Finally, there’s Jordi (Nolan Sotillo) and he is the newest member of the society because he finagles his way into the hospital. Just like Leo has cancer in the leg and doctors are going to have to remove it. Before the doctors take it, the Red Band Society throws him one last party for it.
This is there story of living life to the fullest even though the odds are against them.
Since this is a hospital, there is a staff there to make sure they are taken care of. Nurse Jackson (Octavia Spencer) is the tough one who doesn’t take their crap, but she really cares. Just like Dr McAndrew (Dave Annable) who wants to see his patients make it out of there alive. They let the kids get away with a lot, but they do set some limits.
Red Band Society will make you laugh, warm your heart and bring a few tears to your eyes. It is a drama unlike anything else on television. Sometimes we need a change from the ordinary, and this drama is it.
In all the years I have been watching Sesame Street, I don’t remember ever seeing Cookie Monster make cookies. Well that is no longer the case because today on Queen Latifah‘s daytime talk show, he made some chocolate chip cookies with some help from Elmo.
If this doesn’t put a smile on your face today, nothing will. I know I am grinning from ear to ear after watching this very sweet cooking segment.

Last week, U2 gave out their latest album out for free on iPhones all over the world and several people didn’t want it on there. So now, they are trying to figure out how to remove the lemon from their mobiles.
Well have no fear; Fall Out Boy is here to save the day.
So watch the Dance Dance guys show us on Jimmy Kimmel Live how to make U2 dance dance off of your iTunes. It’s as easy as 1-2-3 and poof it’s gone!
Now that I know how to do it, I am going to streets with no name today and do the same thing to help other people rid the CD from their phones. I hope U2 do it.
School is barely back in session, Halloween is still over a month away, but that isn’t stopping retailers from bringing out their Christmas decorations now. In fact, it has gotten so bad that Kmart released a Christmas ad, although they say it isn’t one. You be the judge.
When will this madness stop? Will we see 4th of July decorations next to Santa Clause next year? Easter bunnies next to reindeers? Valentine’s hearts next to ornaments? Can we go back to the days when we waited until Black Friday to celebrate the holiday? Because we are still 98 days away from December 25th and I am already sick of Christmas. Bah humbug!
