BSG:BEST EPISODE ALL SEASON!!!!!

BSG: The Oath

She Says:

I don't know what else to say then that. SO AMAZING!!!!!! My heart as racing the entire time, I was so nervous!!!

Lee & Starbuck's kiss. Lee as a Bad Ass, STARBUCK as the ULTIMATE bad ass. And all I want is for someone to kick out Gaeta's fake leg out from under him.

Roslin choosing LIFE! Balthar putting himself first. Tyrol staying loyal to Adama. LOVED Starbuck and Lee looking like the embarassed kids as the parents make out.

I really can't say much. Just one awesome episode.

The only downer - is did they really go and tell us a certain character dies in the preview? Really? That is making me guess they didn't.

Lost: Charlie Widmore's War


Lost Episode - The Jughead

She Said:
Random Thoughts
Awwww Penny and Desmond are having a baby???? OH!!!!!! So Sweet!!! I love these two. While I have always loved the intensity of Skate, the real love story is Desmond and Penny. Although, I am not sure about beardless Desmond, that doesn't seem quite right.

Is it weird that I love it when water hits the camera lens.

Daniel Faraday comes from the Whispering school of acting, seriously, does he know how to project at all?

Sawyer "Why Didn't you shoot???" Expected Answer - Now we can track him back to his camp... not "he is one of my people" crap. Oy! I seriously doubt John Locke is the second coming... But maybe there have been some similarities, he did die, I guess we will see if he can rise again.

Is the chick with the gun the same one who is lying in the bed?

HOLY FRAK!!!! Charles Widmore was on the island and is a Friggin OTHER!!!!!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, their baby's name is Charlie, that is totally making me tear up. Until I wrote this and saw the two names back to back, I never put together that there were to Charles on the show Charles (charlie) Pace and Charles Widmore. Now we have a third from a third generation Charles (charlie) Hume. Coincidence? On this show? Doubtful...

And Charlotte is down for the count. This is what I don't get. Daniel helped Desmond when he was deaing with the time travel sickeness, told him he needed a constant, why isn't he telling Charlotte? Why wouldn't he have told her before she starts to go totally down hill?? I don't get it.

I know some people are complaining about the Time Travel aspect of this season - like it is a brand new concept on this show...umm Desmond has been time travelling since Season 2... Just something to think about...

And I am going out on a limb, I have a theory that the voices the Losties heard in the jungle in the previous seasons, was not the others, but the Losties who are now time travelling.

And this episode contained three of my favorite characters, Sawyer, Juliet and Myles. I love Sawyer for his passion, Juliet for her coolness and Myles cause he frakkin sees dead people!!!! :D

Agreed. Penny and Desmond are the most touching love story in the show. Not sure how I feel about a beardless Desmond either.
Yes, it's weird that you like water hitting the camera. What is wrong with you? ;)
The Whispering School of Acting was founded by Marcel Marceau and was for his specially advanced students.
Oh man, not Jesus Locke. I hate Jesus Balthar, I can't have another one.
I think you're right about the girl lying the bed. They look awfully similar otherwise. I was shocked by the Widimore on the island thing too. And he's an Other. Quite a reveal.
I liked the baby being Charlie as well. I didn't see the grand Charlie connections though. Interesting.
I'm not bothered by the time travel. As long as it doesn't get too out of hand. I hope their past selves and future selves don't run into each other. We all know from Back To The Future II what happens then.

Scrubs: Sesame Scrubs

Scrubs: My ABC

She Said:
_____________________________________________________
Rips on NBC - 1 Deal or No Deal.

Mark my words I will Zwah you by the end of the day.

Oscar the Grouch as the New Chief of Medicine!! Brilliant -oh he and the Janitor are pals - that makes so much sense.

Oscar "I'll be watching you John Dorian, and guess what? My eyes never close!!!!"

AS I saw a live taping of Facts of Life, and love the facts of life, I love that JD keeps calling his intern Jo.

OH!! Poor Grover. he met the Todd, He high -fived the Todd, and then he went flying across the room, but not before commenting on how being fuzzy is good with the women!

My favorite part of all Scrubs episodes is the use of music, I have never heard the Sesame Street theme song sound so melancholy and beautiful. And by the end, I had tears in my eyes.



AS for their switch to ABC, my favorite new thing they are doing is the outclips at the end during the credits.

And it is true, you take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and there you have The Facts of Life. Which can all be learned by watching Sesame Street.

Oh and yes, the little red annoyance made an appearance and did a crazy dance with JD and Jo, but he get's enough airtime, the way he has taken over sesame street - Elmo obviously never learned to share... but that is a story for a different Blog.

Episode 2 - in the morning. :)


He Said
_____________________________________________

"...my eyes never close" Brilliant!

While I like Jo, I'm not a fan of Zwah boy. Just don't like him right now and don't care if he is a good doctor. He's annoying. He's a pest, that's what he is. Carrie is right: Jo is now Cox, since Cox is onto a different role.

Great use of the Sesame Street theme throughout the show. Terrific use of music too.

It's so great to see Scrubs going for the human side of the story again. The humor is always there, but it's nice to see them finding the heart in the stories.

Fringe: Puke for Brains

Fringe - Episode 12: the no brainer

She Says:
__________________________________________________

This is an episode that maybe I shouldn't blog through, but I will anyway. The Episode starts with a teenage boy on the internet when he gets an IM that says "What's that Noise?" Soon there are images ala The Ring scrolling across his screen. The boy is mesmorized by his screen with Tears rolling down his eyes, when a hand appears to reach through the screen, or maybe more correctly stated the screen becomes a hand that grabs the kids head. The credits roll.

Sidenote - I can' no longer hear the song Single Ladies without thinking of Justin Timberlake...

Grrr Argh!!! I want to see what is on that note, but I do not need to see liquidfy brain pouring out of a guys head - gross.

I'm not a big fan of this new beaurocrat guy why add an uneeded complication. Fringe has enough obstacles between Oliva only being told what she needs to know, and the people at Massive Dynamics, we don't need this guy - he reminds me of Chi McBride or Trotter when they were on House, completely useless characters just there to make viewing the show a bit more annoying.

WOOT!!!!! Dawson's Creek Reunion!!!! Grams and Pacey reunited!!!! I seriously love having Josh Jackson back on my screen every week.

Good episode, creepy, but loved that they delved into Walter and Peter's Background. :)


He Says
_________________________________________________

Are all kids that dumb that they'd open any attachment that comes across their computer screen? Why would you do that?!? Very creepy opening.

"I'm not judging you"...but yeah, I am.

I agree with your take on the beaureucratic guy. Just an unecessary obstacle. Why couldn't his brains liquify?

I wanna read the letter to Walter!! Maybe I don't. I'm not really sure.

God, the little girl on the laptop hits way too close to home. So, the puppet episode of Angel has made very wary of leaving Piper alone watching TV, and now this will keep me looking over her shoulder when she's on the computer.

Why does Peter have to stay in the car? Chuck never does.

House: Crying babies make me lose my head.

House
Episode: Big Baby

She Said:
_____________________________________________________
Case of the week: Kid asks teacher to marry him, spills green glitter, little girl wets herself. Oh is she this weeks patient??? Then the teacher collapse with a bloody nose. Aha! We have found our patient. After cutting off her skull and getting spit up on by an adorable baby, we find out it is a birth defect causing all of the patients problems- but really, we all know it isn't about the patient, it is about how the patient affects the Team, right?


Cuddy and her foster baby: She wanted a baby so bad, it has been all we have heard from Cuddy for three years. Now she has one, and she's not feeling anything for it. I've always wondered if that happens. I can't imagine it... like PPD, I don't have that understanding. And yes, I remember that 2 months was when Piper fist smiled for real, and until that point in time she only pooped, slept ate and cried, but she was so beautiful to me. Wilson and his picture was a brilliant Wilson manipulation. Wilson, he is suppose to be the "good guy", but he is always proving House's one motto - Everybody lies. Eventually during a convoluted scene with with the patient's skull off her head, cuddy on speaker phone and the baby crying they connected. Cmon eveyone, let's all here it "Awwwww." The baby really is dang cute though!

Foreteen - she's getting the placebo, he's getting antsy and wants to give her the real drug, and I keep getting bored by their storyline. And Foreman needs to trim that beard. However, it does give us the basis for a classic House moment, giving Foreman advice, the right advice, and then flipping it on him as he is about to walk out the door. And it worked, Foreman followed his heart not his head.

Kutner and what's his face: well, what's his face doesn't do much in this episode, or for me in general. Same with the overused 13. I like that I don't know either of their names, it cements for me that I don't care about these characters and they are just stealing time away from those I do like. The only Newbie I like is Kutner. I love how he isn't afraid of House, I love that he throws smack back at him, I also enjoy that he tries to use humor and I've enjoyed seeing the twists and turns of his past.

Cameron :What! Cameron??? On my screen? Speaking? No WAY!!!!! TWICE!!!!! Three, Four - Five Six - I've lost count of how many times she has been on my screen. Taking over for Cuddy did good things for the character's screen time, but I guess she likes to be off screen. After realizing she will always say yes to House, so she up and quits, and will now return to her maybe 2 minutes of air time.

Chase, honey, you know you are my favorite, and you know that any moment you have on screen makes me happy, but seriously, dear, with such limited screen time, why aren't you combing your hair?

Chase and Cameron have been sidelined since their real life relationship went south...coincidence?

Next week is the 100 episode, and I'm already poised to not like it - Foreteen is front and center, while Chase and Cameron don't even make the scene. But that's ok, my blogs are better when I don't like the episode! :)

He Said
____________________________________________________
Maybe I've just been force fed 13 enough now, but she bothers less. They're going to lose her before the season ends anyways right? She'll die, and we'll all yawn.

Wilson getting caught with the picture was hilarious. The baby angle with Cuddy is better than I thought it would be. I didn't expect them to go the PPD-ish route, but it's an interesting and insightful thing to see.

You can remember his name is Kutner? Wow, I just think of him as Harold or Kumar (and I know that's not nice, he's doing well for himself).

It was great to Cameron...and there she goes. Oh well, fun while it lasted.

Supernatural:Criss Angel is a Douche Bag

Supernatural: Criss Angel is a Douche Bag.

She Said:

First off, love the title, this year the episode titles of Supernatural have been hiliarious. Let's not forget "Are you there God, it's me Dean Winchester."

Barry Bostwisk Alert! Wow Brad has some crazy almost flock of segulls! Frank would be so proud. :) In true Supernatural fashion I am hooked before the opening credits.


In this episode three elderly magicians are lamenting their place in life and being ripped on by the Hot Young mascara wearing magicians. When one of the older magicians decides to go all out and try an extremely dangerous act, he appears to fail, instead he lives and one of the younger magicians suffers the outcome of his trick.

Random Thoughts:
Number of times the phrase douchebag is uttered in this episode = 6

I really want to see 13 year old Sam with his Hat and Wand.

I do still wonder why every hotel the boys stay in look exactly the same - they all have the same lattice like structure leading to the doors.

Stupid CW LOGO!!! You couldn't see the name of the final card!!!!! Grr!! Argh!!


Favoite Lines:

Chief "Oh and before we start - what is your safe word?"
----------------------------------------------

Sam "Do you think we will die before we get old?"
Dean "Haven't we already?"


What am I loving about this season is the biblical nature of this year, the introduction of the Angels, and Lucifer. For the Winchester Boys to believe that God exists is such a thrill for me. I love the idea of God sending one of his angels to an unbeliever. I am still expecting this season to end with the Sam and Dean going up against each other and with Sam getting in the car with Ruby at the end of this episode, even after the angels have warned him against it, I'd say that is exactly where we are headed. Sam is still looking for the easy way out. Where as Dean has never really had it easy.

He Said:
I thought Barry Bostwick was really good in the epsiode. Added a lot of heart to the character.

I enjoyed them railing on the likes of Criss Angel, who I also think is a douchebag.

I'm bored with this Ruby. Everytime I see her, I just groan. Were we that spoiled by the first actress? I just want this Ruby to go away, and I'm sure she will before the year is out.

Worst use of the CW logo. Doesn't somebody check these things and say, "Hey, the logo is blocking a critical part of the story. Can we get that fixed?"

The inevitable showdown of Sam vs Dean will be intriguing to see. Dean Winchester is still one of my favorite characters on TV right now.

Should they go for another season next year, I wonder what kind of story they would tell.

BSG: A disappointment felt in my Soul


BSG - Episode 75: A Disquiet that Follows My Soul
She Said:
I know this is my first post and all, but what a frakked up mess of an episode.

Let's rewrite history - Callie who was in love and fiercely loyal to the Chief forever was TWO TIMING him with Hot Dog??? Seriously??? Wow... I take this revision to mean the writers had not chosen the final five cylons until after Chief and Callie had their son. Then all of a sudden there is a second cylon/human baby out there - hmm, they don't seem to want that now, so let's tarnish Callie now that she is gone. This also tells me there must be some sort of plan/purpose for Hera and Tighs/6 baby that having another cylonish baby out there wouldn't be quiet as cool.

Don't even get me started with Tigh/6 cuddling and cooing over the ultra sound - blech.

Fine, President Roslin - kill yourself, but when you are living in a place with limited supplies is it really a good idea throw away a buttload of drugs that ya know other people who may want to live could use.

Am I supposed to be compelled by Roslin's running and Adama's Teeth Brushing? However , Roslin, I'll will give it to you, you masterfully delivered your mnologue...

The mutiny angle is weak to me. However, the previews look a bit more promising.

Remember how good the first two seasons were... I want funny sex crazed Balthar back. I want the undeniable chemistry of Starbuck and Apollo. I want to know how they are going to tie all this up in 8 more episodes and give us a satisfying ending...or at least keep it interesting.
He Said:
I agree with everything you say here. I have a feeling things are going to get better before the show ends, but I miss the way it was. So when all is said and done, I'm guessing the majority of supporting characters will be dead and one or two principles. Just seems to be where this is all going. That's going to suck.
I miss Balthar so much. He's puts me to sleep when he's on screen now. And I mean that literally.
Was Adama's teeth brushing a PSA or something?. Why don't they do a tie in with Sesame Street like Happy Days did when Fonzie and Richie showed us the proper way to brush our teeth.
Every week this doesn't get better, I'm just going to remember fat Lee and smile.
