Bzzz! and Other Dating Shows with Annie Wood

I remember watching Bzzz! on tv and I was probably was probably way too young to be watching it, but it was also a fun show. I miss the dating shows of the 90s and early 00s, Singled Out and Blind Date to name a few. I wonder how these shows would do now, especially when the dating shows now are all about the drama and gaining popularity to become an influencer and not really about finding love. 

Annie was so much fun to talk to. I took a chance and emailed her manager about her coming on and very shortly after that email, I received an email from Annie and we set up a time. Be sure to go to https://www.anniewood.com/ and check out her artwork, poetry, and more.
