TV critic career
In 1997 Amatangelo was following a new online site, Digital City Boston, which had a TV and movie critic called "TV Guy". She wrote to the editor and suggested that the site should also have a "TV Gal", and the editor agreed, appointing her to the new position. She became TV Gal, at first maintaining a weekly blog. On 18 September 2007, the blog began appearing three times per week. She eventually moved the blog to Zap2it.com, where it continued for ten years. During that time she also contributed to The Boston Herald, including a column ("Watch This") which ran in that newspaper's Sunday supplement for seven years. She also contributed to The Washington Post, as well as Channel Guide, Celebuzz, and Emmy magazines.
Amatangelo is a member of the Television Critics Association, and has appeared on television and radio to discuss television programming.[3]
At ZAP2it, she is known as Amy the TV Gal.
