Have you ever watched television and discovered a new celebrity you've never seen before and wondered who that particular person was? Well, I'm sure we all have. Therefore, it would be great if a new additional tool were added to the television and TV remote control. Basically, the control would have a button on it (yeah, along with twenty thousand other buttons) that the viewer would press during a sitcom, series, or movie. For instance, if you're watching "Nashville" on ABC, you would press the 'Name Cursor' button on the remote; and a name would pop up such as Hayden Panettiere. Even more, the name label of Hayden would follow her around and be connected to her by a very thin line or the name would appear on the screen with an arrow that points to her. Moreover, the arrow or line and name could be made invisible once again by pressing the 'Name Cursor' button for a second time. Furthermore, it may give the user other information such as age, birth place, and other interesting tidbits that the fan may find amusing like Hayden's favorite foods or her favorite types of shoes. On top of that, the viewer would be able to either browse this information while continuously watching the TV show; or see it in another screen; or the screen would split into multiple screens. Not only that, another aspect that could be included is that television producers could actually hide this information in the film scenes so that the user could click on, using an arrow key, various items such as doors, key knobs, grapes on a dusty table, etc. and the information about the celebs pops up for the watcher to indulge in.
