The RollerBlog - A blog we luv

The RollerBlog
Are you one of those people that feels like movies, music, television and everything else in between are just not as cool as they used to be? Do you find yourself secretly painting your face, slipping on high rise boots and belting out your favorite Kiss tunes in front of the mirror? If so The RollerBlog, a site which celebrates the seventies, is the perfect addition to your list of daily reads.

In the words of Katy, the blog’s author, “The RollerBlog chronicles my journey into the decade of my birth, in which I discover movies, music, television, books, and more. Not to mention Wonder Woman, moustaches, the Heat Miser, feathered hair, and the occasional wookie.”

Featured on the RollerBlog are many different categories all spilling over with content paying homage to the seventies. I particularly enjoyed visiting the 1974 category, the year I was born, to see what kind of goodies Katy writes about. I was pretty delighted to find a post about the great old Christmas specials which air every year on television, particularly The Year Without a Santa Clause which was made in 1974. Cool! Of course I was just an infant when this classic was released, but I certainly remember watching it when I was little older. Good stuff.

Fast forward a few years and we find Katy writing about perhaps one of the cooler and certainly classic television shows born in the seventies, Doctor Who. What blog which focuses on the 1970s would be complete without Doctor Who? Katy seemingly leaves no stone unturned in her quest to celebrate the decade in which she was also born.

If you’re a child of the seventies or just have a love for the era, you can’t go wrong with The Rollerblog. Stop by today, grab the feed, kick back and let Katy take you for a trip down memory lane!

  5. Actually, Doctor Who was born on November 23, 1963. By the time I started watching (about 1976, aged six, from behind the sofa) we were already on the fourth doctor. ;)
