LITTLE ROCK — If you need a break from your family, indulge in a little fantasy with the new On TV Contest and answer the question: If you could spend the Christmas season with any TV family, which would it be? Why?
Would getting to say good night to John Boy and the rest of the clan on The Waltons be the perfect Christmas gift? Do you dream of spending quality time with the Bradys?
Keep in mind that this is about families - as in a group of people united by blood and/or law. No workplace “families” or tight-knit groups of friends.
And please stick to fictional families from scripted series.
For those who think entering this contest would be disloyal to their real families, lighten up. This is all meant to be fun.
Your entry can take any form you like as long as you explain your choice.
Send the entry (one per contestant), including your mailing address and daytime phone number, to Jennifer Nixon at 121 E. Capitol Ave., Little Rock, Ark. 72201; or by e-mail to jnixon@arkansasonline.com. Entries must be received no later than 3 p.m. Jan. 9.
The reader with the best-written entry will get to choose from Judge Nixon’s Fabulous Prize Pile of TV DVD sets.
Who can enter: Anyone except the winner of the last contest, Andy Ragan of Jacksonville, and Arkansas Democrat-Gazette and Northwest Arkansas Newspapers LLC employees.
Note to privacy-conscious readers: We do not compile lists of mail or e-mail addresses for evil plots or marketing purposes. All entries are destroyed after the judge has selected her winner.
