I got home last night and have already started playing catch up! So far I’ve watched . . .
Castle
Once Upon A Time
Desperate Housewives
Pretty Little Liars
Grey’s Anatomy
Private Practice
Parenthood
Still to catch up on . . . .
Revenge Grimm
The Secret Circle
Body of Proof
Hawaii 5-0
Fringe Face-Off on SyFy
Shameless on Showtime
The ABC comedies I watch but never blog about (Modern Family, Subutgatory, Happy Endings)
I also go back to work this week, so getting that in order is my first priority (watching shows as I prepare). So I have not yet figured out how to handle the shows I’ve missed, as some already start tonight. I will probably just pick up with comments on the new shows beginning tonight, and add in anything important from last week’s show I may have wanted to comment on.
It’s that time of year for me again, when I go on my week long vacation, which always seems to coincide with the return of shows from hiatus. I’m really peeved I’m going to miss “Once Upon A Time” more than anything else! I don’t expect to have access to the current shows, but I’ll be checking in and passing on any news or info over the week.
Of note, “Glee” returns the 17th with the big proposal episode. The week after, the 24th, will be the Michael Jackson tribute episode. The cast was just tweeting the past few days that Ricky Martin is on set filming his guest stint as a Spanish Teacher. I’m still not sure how this fits in? Perhaps he fills in for Shue, who may be on his honeymoon?
I keep meaning to make posts on the show, but get busy, and now I see it’s been a month since I posted. Oh no! So here is a post discussing the show, and my various thoughts on some of the major stories.
So from the moment Paige came on the screen with her attitude towards Emily I knew, she had the hots for her. And indeed she does, and Emily is helping her come to terms with being gay. She’s at least a lot more likable than Maya, who was incredibly pushy . . . . but I’d still like resolution to what happened to Maya. Was she sent to Jesus Reformation Camp for being gay and not a drug camp?
I kinda enjoyed Hanna and Caleb together, but honestly I much more liked her with the geeky guy who had the crush on her. I thought they were going somewhere. Caleb of course turned out to be hired by Jenna to spy on Hannah. Uh oh! The slap Hannah gave Jenna was great, and long overdue! As for Spencer . . . . you dumb ass! Not to advocating kicking a blind person and taking advantage of them, but Jenna is a schemer . . . . she should have stolen that flash drive and RAN!
Spencer and Jenna’s brother Toby hooking up, I NEVER saw that one coming, but I liked it! Spencer becoming the prime suspect in Alison’s murder, and somehow Ian coming off clean as a whistle just pissed me off. I think at this point it’s time to be honest with the cops. Tell them about -A. Show them the text messages. Enough is enough, don’t send yourself to jail over protecting this blackmailing SOB.
Finally Aria’s mom and dad are finding their way back together, but it seems Aria’s romance with Teacher is on the verge of being discovered by them. Uh Oh! That’s long overdue and the shiznit is gunna hit the fan.
So who do I think -A is? Hell if I know at this point. I thought it was Melissa for so long, but now Jenna is looking all sorts of suspecious again. So that means it has to be neither of them but someone else. There is still the possibility that -A is not the killer, only knows who the real killer is.
So if you visited today, I clearly had some problems. All my blogs got hacked across my server. I have been trying to take precautions to keep it from happening again.
If you run into any errors on the blog, or you get a forbidden or denied error, please email me! I’ll do my best to get it fixed.
Oh and yeah, I did not really pay attention to Sunday night’s TV unfortunately. So I’ll be reviewing “Housewives” and “B&S” again when I can actually pay attention!
Grey’s and Off The Map Thoughts, Grey’s Spoiler Bits!
Posted by Dustin on 01.21.2011 at 2:12 pm
So I really loved the last two episodes of “Grey’s.” The race for Chief Resident and them all being graded I thought was hilarious. Okay not so funny that Alex is in the lead, but I guess he really was the only one who taught (in and out of the bedroom).
The twist that Callie is pregnant with Mark’s kid was not so shocking. I just don’t know what it’s going to do to Mark and Lexie and Callie and Arizona’s relationships. I did love that Callie didn’t just forgive Arizona so easily. “Get your crap out of my house!” Loved it!
I love love love the Teddy story with her patient. Loved that everyone in the hospital but the Chief was basically on her side. I just have a bad feeling they are going to kill her husband off
The new in love Bailey is so much fun too.
I feel so bad for Meredith and Derek, who can’t get pregnant. With Callie pregnant it’s gunna be even more difficult for her I bet, and I have a feeling someone else is going to end up preggers soon as well . . . .
As for “Off The Map,” I liked the different medical stories that can be done, and there was a lot of excitement there . . . . However the characters either told us their whole stories in episode one, or are cookie cutter “Grey’s” characters. The plastics guy is Alex, the cold Blonde is Yang, then there is the Addison, Derek Meredith triangle with the other three. Yawn!
“Grey’s” Spoiler Bits!
Kevin McKidd talked to TV Guide and revealed Christina and Owen face a life decision that man other people in the hospital are going through, and they both have very different opinions about it. A baby?
Kristin reports that Loretta Divine (Adele Webber) will return at some point this season as a patient! Uh oh!
So I am home from vacation. Believe it or not, I’m also almost caught up on all the shows I missed. Some shows still aren’t back (Glee, 90210) so that made it easy, and others (Idol) aren’t back yet. Though I am not sure how much I’ll actually bother with Idol, as it’s just not going to be the same. That plus last season was such a train wreck.
The only show I can’t find online or on demand (and I didn’t Tivo), is last week’s “V.” I’m pretty miffed about that, why ABC doesn’t have it online anywhere I don’t understand. I guess I’ll have to read the recap unless it magically goes up somewhere (but the season premier isn’t up either so I’m not holding my breath). I also want to give “The Cape” and “Off the Map” a try. Did anyone? What were your thoughts on them?
Just in case you didn’t see on the sidebar, I am on vacation this week so my TV watching is all but non-existent. I will catch up quickly though! I’ll also pass on/retweet any news.
ABC has renewed several shows all ready, including Greys, Private Practice, Modern Family, Cougar Town and Castle! So happy about Castle!
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas, or if you celebrated it had a Happy Hanukkah. For fun I’m posting a holiday classic from yesteryear that you can’t find on TV anymore. I posted it on my personal blog a week or so ago , but saved till now it for here. I’ll see what other goodies I can dig up
Info : Please, resolve the addition below before post any new comment...
Guest_3468 : Watching PP, and all I can think is yea Violet!!! About time tell off that arse, can't believe he'd even try that
Dustin : Been thinking, maybe she's projecting something that happened with someone else onto her teacher
Dustin : I gotta rewatch Ringer as usual lol. Yeah she acted like she was really upset, I just thought she was playing for her friends sake though. I'd rather see Juliette go down in flames though
Guest_3468 : hoping ti's a plot between the two of them for some reason
Guest_3468 : Ausiello said that storyline turns into something else all together, that's what I hope because I hate it so far
Guest_2273 : I'm confused? On Ringer, I thought Juliette was making the rape up? The teacher turned her down. Now they are making it seem like it's real?
Guest_3699 : And don't forget the police record. Sounds like a keeper to me. But let's get mad at Annie for watching out for us. Although the GPS tracker was a little stalkerish. LOL And the burned down sororiety house? Hasnt this story been done before?
Dustin : I agree, and the Liam storyline is the pits too. Hey you ran me over and lied about it, and have multiple identities, wanna be my gal?
Guest_3699 : I give up on 90210. Is Naveed really that stupid? Let's tell a slightly unhinged, barely recovered addict who moons about her daughter 24/7 that she lives down the block and Silver is dating her dad!!! She'll probably take that really well.
Dustin : I'll probably watch on Hulu or On Demand, not much on till Next Week it seems
CGinCA : I am really enjoying Alacatraz, my only complaint is that for whatever reason, I seem to have to retape it a lot due to poor volume, and or digital adjustments.... So really watching twice and learning a lot each time.
Dustin : I have not tried it. Do you like it? Keep meaning to catch up on Demand
CGinCA : Is anyone watching Alacatraz?
Dustin : Yes I was thinking maybe he's connected to the book of Fairytales Henry has? His typewriter was definitely old fashion
DNA : Dustin, are you saying you think the "writer" wrote the fairy tale book? I liked that his arrival shook up the mayor. Not sure how I feel about the long drawn out story between Snow White and the prince. We know they get together in the fairy tale land so I'm not feeling all anxious about it. As for the present time, I don't think kissing out of the street half an hour after you promised your wife you'd get marriage counselling is a nice move.
Dustin : Last night's Once, Ehhhh! Seemed like a filler. As for the "Writer," Hmmmmm. Tied to the book maybe?
Dustin : Sorry forgot to write it up! Will get on that. Basically Jake was a toddler and was there, they used his memories to see what happened. We learned the kids (who really were more like College Students!) did not set the fire, Witch Hunters did in order to kill Cassie's father . . . . who escaped! Joe Lando has been cast as her father
CGinCA : What was the twist, I saw everything up to her coming back, but the last ten minutes my signal broke up so missed the graveyard stuff on Secret Circle.
Dustin : LOVED Secret Circle and the twist with Cassie's dad!
Dustin : Secret Circle didn't tape, waiting for Hulu, will watch it tonight.
Dustin : I don't like this new therapy session at the beginning and end of each show
Guest_3699 : I hate that they make Addison so dependant on the men in her life. That being said, I actually really like her and Jake together.
Dustin : Will write a few more posts today/tonight. Parenthood is killing me!
Dustin : I can't believe we have to wait 2 weeks for Glee though
Guest_2273 : Loving Emma's marry me will number!
Dustin : Got through Greys, PP and PLL lol. Only a few more shows and I'm caught up!
Dustin : Finally home and watching! May have to just a quick post of quick thoughts as a new week starts tomorrow lol!!
Guest_686 : It's official Pete is the biggest jerk ever, he has no hope now what so ever, disgusting, did you ever love her at all
Dustin : Finally home tomorrow! A weeks worth of shows to catch upo on
Dustin : Finally home tomorrow! A weeks worth of shows to catch upo on
Guest_3699 : Loved the shows tonight! Really enjoyed Greys. Didn't get a chance to watch PP yet. Secret circle was great and so was Vampire Diaries.
Dustin : Loved Secret Circle tonight! now to watch Grey's!
Dustin : Chadd, not sure. Go away for a week, so am going to be missing a whole week. The December shows were sooooooooo slow. It seems to just now be picking up
Dustin : Yes! Loved PLL. Gunna write that up in a bit. Parenthood is on tonight, along with some ABC stuff
Guest_3699 : Thank goodness some new shows last night!!!
