Grey's Season Finale

2009-05-15T04:37:00.001-07:00

Here's a link to the best recap that I found today.

This was a lot of drama for one night...I think that these 2 hr and 3 hour season finale's have to stop. They are like mini movies that I am not prepared to see in the middle of the week. A lot of drama in this one...I have to say that ABC did a good job keeping this on the wraps.

I didn't see the George thing coming, but I missed the meaning of 007. I knew that meant that it was George, but I didn't get the connection. There was so much to like and dislike about this episode. I think they could have left the guy wanting his leg cut off and that whole storyline out. I really could care less about a new character, when my old friends are going through so much. The best way I can describe this episode was blood guts and tears. Lots of operations going on.

I also have to add that I didn't like the make up job on little Grey. I went from having a crush on her, to being crushed by the clown effects of her face. Good Job screwing that up.
All in all it was a great Season finale, especially when compared with Brothers & Sisters. I could go on, but I'd rather here you guys talks some smack!

The Amazing Race Finale

2009-05-11T10:38:00.000-07:00

Thanks for settin' this off Nick!
I was very disappointed Luke and Marge lost, but Tammy and Victor did great most of the race, so I think they deserved it after all. The thing with Victor is that he was sooo bossy, so anoying most of the time. And the "great job" every 5 seconds between the siblings was getting on my nerves! Cried like a baby with Marge and Luke. So moving, so tender. But the thing is that Luke became so nervous when Victor got into the challenge, he was obviously intimidated and lost concentration.

Emailed by Linda:
I am saddened to see how name calling, mud slinging, vicious behavior, won over class. Joan Rivers and her daughter are everything they accused Annie and her team mates of being. Annie finally broke and said a few negative things in return. Who wouldn't! Donald never let Anne say anything and every time she tried, Joan went on a rampage, acting like a lunatic, never allowing her to say what she had to say. Joan was the liar. Totally unfair, totally unprofessional, totally a joke. Annie was totally right when she said Joan's behavior would have had her fired at any normal board room meeting. I won't be watching the show in the future. This was the first time and it will be my last. Charity begins with dignity. Annie and her team mates won hands down. She contributed way more money, had more celebrities, more class. Donald made a fool out of himself - he was obviously going to pick Joan no matter WHAT happened. It was a fix.

Coach is GAY! Gots to be after all the mysogyny and talk of men going off on passionate warrior quests together, slaying dragons (insert metaphor). Wow, not even a family member to bring on national TV to show that someone out in the whole wide world loves him. Sad lonely man.
I will be happy if any of the Jalapaos win it all. Fantastic gameplay by all. Stephen's the brains, JT's the brawn and Taj's the social engineer. Who thinks the HII won't even be needed next week?

I thought it was a great episode, cliched or not. I'm liking solid, brighter Meredith - I was over mopey Meredith. And while I like Callie / Arizona - the money thing is a stretch in that I don't know why her father would take ALL her money, and while Arizona has been a girly girl, she also came off as independent - until last night when she was all clingy and insecure. Hated that. It's unfortunate it has taken three actresses until they got one they liked - it puts Callie in a negative light.

Last night...cheers and boos both. Boos to losing Allison and keeping the "Howler", to No Doubt (who I muted after the first few notes and read my TV Guide). Cheers to Kris who made it through and to Daughtry (his ouster was the making of a star). In fact I pre-ordered his new album this a.m.
As to Paula's number....all I can say is we never "really saw her" lost as she was in clouds, mists, lighting, and curtains. So I have no real comment.
Vote for Kris/Adam only!!!!

The Biggest Loser

2009-05-06T14:59:00.000-07:00

I know I said before that I wasn't a fan of The Biggest Loser, but now I'm all in. This being my first season watching I'm still finding out how the show works. I didn't know that they go home for 30 days, and then have to compete in a final challenge then America votes!

Despite the fact that Mike's pops fought tooth and nail for his son's survival there can only be one winner. I think when voting, it's simple. Who has a better chance to bring the money home to the nest. I think that is clearly Mike. Ron has had so many near medical mishaps that if he gets voted to stay, he might not make it to the grand finale. He had a blowout during the marathon and

half his body went numb. That’s Crazy!!

Mike is definitely the person that America should keep - but from watching American Idol we know how America can screw things up.

Amazing Race 14

2009-05-03T17:05:00.001-07:00

I have to say that I knew that Tammy and Victor, and Margie and Luke were going to be in the finale. I didn't expect either the cheerleaders or Kisha & Jen to make it this far. Luke is pretty smart, his loss of hearing has forced him and his mom to think outside of the box their entire lives so they are used to this kind of rat race.

THE CHINESE CONNECTION

I think the fact that Tammy and Victor speak Chinese is a huge huge advantage. This season the race has spent an unusually long time in one country that is native to two of the contestants.

WENT WEE WEE ALL THE WAY HOME

When Kisha and Jen got U-turned last night I knew they were toast but they actually completed the other task and had a good chance of winning. The food challenge did them in: One she took too long eating and two, she went to the bathroom. For a one in three chance at a million dollars, I will pee on myself on national TV any day of the week. If I’m wearing a Komono you wouldn’t even know it. It would be like peeing in a swimming pool!

Talk some smack!

-Cosmo

**********************************************

From Tarbloob: I think the only mistake Tammy and Victor made in my opinion was a tactical one in using the U-Turn against Kisha & Jen. Though I grant the sibs couldn't beat Kisha & Jen in a rundown footrace to the mat, the sisters had not raced close enough most previous legs to even threaten Tammy & Victor with such an eventuality. Statistically, the obvious threat was Margie & Luke. Had the mother & son been hit with a U-Turn, the extra spoken word Detour might have proved an insurmountable obstacle. Instead, the mother & son were left alone to do the alternate Chinese Opera task instead with the pair putting operatic makeup on each other's faces. After Margie completed the later food eating Roadblock, the mother and son would score a second place finish and their passage to "The Amazing Race 14" finale.

NO WORRY BEEF CURRY - JON & KATE

2009-04-30T15:40:00.000-07:00

It all started shortly after Jon and Kate moved into their 1.3 million dollar Pennsylvania home; Jon was caught playing beer pong with two Juanita college female volleyball players.

The following night, Jon continued to gey busy. Star magazine wrote: "He was dirty dancing with several of them, making out, kissing them on their necks and mouths. I thought it was rather surprising for a father with his wife and so many kids at home to be acting like this. He was all over one girl, a long-haired blonde who's nearly 6 feet tall. He left with several of the girls, including her."

Just recently Jon continued his antics. While Kate is on tour promoting a book, Jon was caught leaving a bar at 2 AM with another women, minus his wedding ring. Everyone knows he's married so I'm not sure what the big deal is, but he sounds guilty. He was quoted as saying:

...being out with them late at night showed poor judgment on my part. What makes me sick is that my careless behavior has put my family in this uncomfortable position. My family is the most important thing in my life and it kills me that these allegations have hurt them."

Don't Worry Beef Curry Indeed!

-Cosmo

********************************************************************************

Why are people upset about Jon cheating on his wife. Jon is so hot that Kate is lucky to have him at all. With that baby-maker of his, she should be happy to have whatever part of him he wants to give her. Lots of us would take 25% of Jon!

**************************************************

I have to jump in and say: JON IS NOT HOT!! and he has 8 kids!!

**************************************************

OMG! He is SERIOUSLY hot!

I read stories of him doing a personal appearance at a college, and the women were crawling all over him.

2009-04-30T15:11:00.000-07:00

I´m relieved. I can breathe again. I´ve been hoping Matt leaves since that stupid judge´s save.
And there goes the last wildcard. That proves America choses the best contestants without the judges help. Hahahahah

********************************************************************

America got it right. Matt is an excellent singer...but didn't seem as confident in his talent and himself as the others. I am hoping he finds good success regardless of this outcome and of course wish him all the best!

Cat Stew

*****************************************************************************

I thought Matt's performance last night was much better than tonight. I've felt he should have been gone weeks ago. I can just imagine how the judges, and Adam, were feeling when he was in the bottom 2. "Holy cow!"

On another note. I'm so tired of the judges, especially Paula, telling whoever is leaving that this is "just the first step to a great career", or whatever blather she spouts. It is so far from the truth. It would be interesting to go back and see who all she told it to, and where they are now. We will never hear from most of these people ever again. Maybe she's just placating them. I just wish it would stop! On to next week!

I'm not a fan of the biggest loser because it gets way too sappy for me. I can only take but so much crying. I have watched the last three episodes and I'm in. Admittedly I don't sit through the entire 2 hrs. like I do watching the Apprentice but it's compelling to see the dramatic differences.

Last night sucked because Felipe was one of my favorites and he lost 10 lbs and was still in the bottom two. That has to suck.

His changes were drastic (see below). I think to expect people to keep the weight off while raising a family and working a full time job is the real reality show.

What do you think?

2009-04-27T19:35:00.000-07:00

I noticed that Ray J didn't say that he didn't "Hit It" when Danger said that she "thought" that she was pregnant and that the baby was Ray's. Danger looked better but her breasts looked like they have been "touched". I had to slow mo those puppies but I still couldn't tell.

I love the comment that Unique looked like the cowardly lion in "The Wiz". ...and then the allegations of her being a lesbian. Drama all day long. I love it.

I don't know how long Ray will stay with Cocktail but I think he should start using her real name.

What do you think?

Things got a little crazy last night. Joan Rivers was all wound up and said a lot of things that I think she might regret.

The stars don't know how to adjust the ego's and it flies out of hand quick! Mark Burnett is a true genius. The first couple of weeks the contestants seemed to laugh it off, now they are playing for keeps.

Kudos to Trump!

********************************

Brandy should have gotten fired. She sucked as project manager and melissa saved their asses in the previous task by picking the right jewelry and the clothing for the models.

Brandy is useless. She was kept because of her looks, period.

*******************************************************

Joan earned her diva status but Melissa is just a hanger-on with no talent whatsoever. Nobody in business would put up with that moody bitch with the entitlement mentality for more than 2 seconds.

To Bea or not To Bea...Bea Arthur Tribute

2009-04-27T14:09:00.000-07:00

What would a TV blog be without a tribute to the late Bea Arthur.

Smack talkers....Let's here some Bea Arthur smack!!!

For all of you trying to get your TV game up - Bea Arthur was known for her role as Maude. Maude was the cousin of Edith Bunker and had a house keeper who was Florida Evans. How's that for a jump-off. Good Times from Maude, the Jefferson's and Maude from All in the Family.

Can you believe that Bea Arthur was into her 50's when she played Maude. There was a super controversial episode when she got pregnant at age 47 in the first season. She pulled a Murphy brown, which is crazy for the early 70's.

HOT LIKE BEA!

OFFICIAL RECAP CLICK HERE

Survivor is getting pretty good, I have to admit. I love to hate coach. His analogies and stories and crap just leavs you wanting to punch him in his face. I love the fact that Sierra is just barely holding on since the 2nd episode. Sometime you just have to root for the underdog.

After a slow start I think the Mark Burnett team has done another fantastic job.

I have to say, the look on Tyson's face last night was priceless!!

-Cosmo

SURVIVOR SMACK TALK:

Stephen was great last night! He got Taj, JT and Erin to vote out Tyson. No one talked to Sierra about it but she also voted for Tyson. I loved the look on her face as Jeff kept pulling Tyson's name out of the box. -Unk

***********

If Sierra was smart, she'd start the "who do you think will have a better chance of beating me in the end game?" Her reasoning should be... Coach who no one likes but keeps being vocal about playing with honor and not lying blah blah blah. Or Sierra, who no one likes and has lied and backstabbed. Jury would probably reward Coach over another player, and they'd also probably penalize Sierra since most don't like her. She may get further in the game if she used this strategy.

I'm actually getting a little tired of American Idol. I have to say that I was impressed how Lil Rounds got voted off. I thought they were going to bring three people down like they usually do. Nope, she was booted before the opening credits. Next season they should switch things up; the fourth judge wasn't enough.

Final Rounds and Shoop for Anoop!

2009-04-22T20:50:00.000-07:00

My quick take on Idol tonight - I think that both Anoop and Lil Rounds both sounded pretty decent, but it was their time to go. I am a little pissed that the judges wasted their vote last week on Matt Giraud. I'm tired of looking at his undersized chiclet teeth and center forehead zit.

What I do appreciate about the two that went home today was the fact that you can see it in their face that it was serious. Although Anoop is in the final two everyweek, he knew how serious it was and what the show can do for you in terms of securing yourself a future for the rest of your life.

I can respect that, not to mention that when you are not watching the TV and just listening.....Anoop sounds great.

FOR THE LOVE OF RAY J - A UNIQUE ENDING

2009-04-21T11:43:00.000-07:00

(SPOILER)
After weeks of entertaining TV I must say I'm a little sad that "For the Love of Ray J" has come to a close. However, there were a few things that struck me as strange on the finale.

1. Why was Ray J so nervous with Unique's parents. Really? Her father looked like an overweight Woody Harrleson and her mom looked like a Cracked out Cabbage Patch doll. Ray flies all over the world in private jets, has limos, meets with high powered executives and he was nervous about them? Come on'. Man Up!

2. I was dissappointed in his lack of culture at Cocktails house. He acted like the entire family didn't speak English. This is America, get used to that Shzit homey.

3. I am starting to believe the allegations of Ray J getting unique pregnant. For one, I think Unique's family didn't want to be filmed. I think they set that entire scenario up off camera. If it was real, she would be freaking out going crazy. He didn't seem that broken up by her leaving and

she probably knows her crazy ass would be getting her own show.

It should have been Chardonnay and Cocktail in the finale. Then he should have picked both -

THAT'S HOW YOU GET A HAPPY ENDING!!

TERMITES
Hmmm….would I eat termites for protein. Not sure. I think I would have passed. It doesn’t seem like it’s enough protein to risk getting sick.

IMMUNITY IDOL
Sierra after just escaping elimination had a chance to find the immunity idol. I think she made a good move telling Brendan because at that point you she did need help. The only part is that the first clue was super easy. She should have been able to do that herself.

When Debbie came down she said that they were building a fire pit. I was impressed with the ease that she was able to lie. There wasn’t a hint of suspicion.

I’m not sure why Tamara said that she was Eddie George’s wife. WTF! She was also a member of SWV who had huge hits back in the 90’s. Why would she tell her tribe she was the wife of a super duper millionaire? That might have been one of the dumbest mistakes in Survivor history. Why would you even bring up “your husband”.
while you’re on the show? I’m a little pissed that CBS even picked her. With that being said, she has been a super strong player.

Read Article About Being Eddie George's wife

CHALLENGE: BASKET/BRAWL
The challenges are getting increasingly more and more physical each season. The Basketbrawl challenge ended up being immunity and reward. I love the physical aspect of the game but it definitely brings age and fitness more into play. This challenge was a booty and breast fest! I know Jeff Probst was loving it. There were so many blurred boobies I thought I was watching a Girls’ Gone Wild video!

I’m already sick of Coach and him using the fact that he’s a coach to justify his every move. “I make my living from people trusting me…blah blah blah” The problem is that Candace was just as cocky as coach. You should know that you can’t prove to be a thorn in anyone’s ass and not expect to be a target. Not to mention when you are a thorn in the ass of the strongest team member.

Kudos to Coach for doing his thing.

With Tribal Council on the horizon, the Timbira Tribe reflects on what went wrong during the challenge. “Honestly, I didn’t see Coach playing that hard,” Candace points out. “At the end of the day, I really don’t see what Coach is bringing to the table except a lot of talk,” she continues. Debbie informs Coach that Candace is bad-mouthing him to everyone, which instantly motivates Coach to lobby for getting rid of Candace. Coach fumes, “At first I thought I’m going with the plan and vote for Sierra. Now Candace is, boy I mean, talk about cancer on team.”

In the long run the Timbira Tribe will regret voting Candace off, you have to at least try to make every attempt to be the strongest team possible team going into the merger. There might be a twist but you have to plan for what you know.

Not to mention, I was crushing on her. Candace holla at your Cosmo.

Top Chef New York: Season Finale Part 1

2009-02-20T18:56:00.000-08:00

OFFICIAL EPISODE RECAP

I love how in the beginning Stefan is already counting Carla and Hosea out. Typical of Stefan throughout the entire season.

I have to mention that I love Tom Colicchio. Dude is mad smooth. You have to love his his style.

With that being said, I could tell that Stefan and Fabian were scared that Jeff was going to win and be the fifth. Even though it was a nice twist, at first I thought it was wrong to bring someone back and give them a chance in the finals. Then I remembered how good Jeff was and how easily he got eliminated and the fact that he had to win the challenge justified his return. That left it up to the final three to keep him out.

I was worried about Jeff when he started doing exactly what got him kicked out, making a dish that is too complicated…but at the end it worked.

The whole time I was wondering if Stefan’s cockiness was going to be his undoing. Then I saw that he wasn’t using homemade sausage and thought for sure he was toast.

Tom said he was over confident. Stafan’s reply was “I don’t stress anymore. I’m 36 years old – if it works out it works out, if not fine”.

When Hosea got sent up to the suite Stefan got serious real fast. I was like damn one of the European’s will be packing their knives. At that point I knew Stefan was staying. He’s been a superstar almost all the way through so I knew he was going to the finals.

Carla has been kickin’ ass. She is formally trained and it’s paying off. She’s my favorite, because she’s the underdog, and she’s just has a great personality. 6 days left to the final. I’m pumped.

The Real Housewives of New York Are Back

2009-02-18T09:50:00.000-08:00

I’m from the East coast, maybe that’s why I like the NY housewives better then the Orange County housewives. I was happy they were back even in all of their annoyance.

I hate Simon and his pompous a$$. He’s half man, half bitch; but I was impressed at his response to the newspaper article. As impressed as I was I was equally disgusted at him digging in his closet like a girl going on a first date; pulling out clothes and whining about needing to go shopping. It was very emasculating .

The house that Simon and Alex ended up renting in the Hamptons looked super crappy. I can’t believe this is how rich people spend their money. It looked like the deluxe model of Ted Kaczynski’s (aka the Unibomber’s) cabin tucked away in the woods.

I think that Alex truly believed that people are jealous of her, Simon and thier relationship. At the party she is looking like Skeletor in an awful dress, it’s going to take a few episodes for me to get used to her again.

NEW HOUSEWIFE ADDITION

There is a new house wife this Season. Kelly Killoren Bensimon . She’s a rich, former model, the ex-wife of fashion photographer Gilles Bensimon, has two daughters, and is a writer-journalist. I personally think that Lu Ann looks much better then she does, but I think she has been added to the cast to give the women one more person to love hating.

BETHANY

It looks like Bethany is just boobs and mooch. She just mooches off everyone else’s money and flashes her boobs whenever she can.

I love how these housewives take on these charities. Orphans in Kenya? Come on! It’s funny when the camera pans out. You can see the port a potty’s; I couldn’t image any off these guests sitting on a nasty-ass port a potty. Lu Ann wouldn't even drink out of a bottled beer. If I see a Port-a-Potty I usually H-TIB. HOLD TILL I BUST!

With all the hype I think the show was lack luster. The previews for the rest of the season look good; not MTV, VH1 reality good, but BRAVO Reality good. I guess we need to take what we can get.

Ok so this was just a crazy episode of The Bachelor. Let me just say this, “Jason is a Pimp!”. He’s getting each girl to confess their love for him, and then having them take the card and spend the night!

When he’s with Jillian he said that he never saw this side of her. Yeah, “her backside”.
That’s just straight Pimpin. After the hot tub, and all the touchy feely scenes he says, “I had a fantastic date with Jillian, but today, It’s all about Molly.”

He’s changing women like I change my draws.

Another example of Big Pimpin:
Jillian tells him before they spend the night that she is like a friend and he still hits it! Then he dumps her saying there’s no chemistry.

Some advice for the girls: When you don’t get a rose just be on your way. You know someone is going. It’s part of the show. He always gives them some sh&%y excuses. Then the girl tries to justify herself. It’s over, kiss him on the cheek and move on. He’s telling Jillian that the chemistry wasn’t there and she is telling him that it was. You can’t argue with Chemistry! Then she’s telling him how much she loves him. It’s over, it’s a show. He can’t get the rose back and give it to you. You are playing yourself. Go home, ride in the limo, and hope to be the next bachelorette where you can do some dumping.

I said it last week I think the nail in her coffin was the fact that her mom suffered from depression. It’s hereditary and Jason knows that. If you have a shot of picking the future mother of your child and you only know her for a few weeks then why risk it. I am still a little shocked but I kind of knew it.

Down to the final two.

Remember, it’s not going to be next week. There is a “girl tell all” episode first then the season finale that has Jason crying over the ledge. It should be entertaining.

I have mixed emotions about the Private Practice Grey's combo. First I will say that it was done very well. For those who don't watch both shows they weren't able to get the thrill and the connection. I watch Private Practice, but I'm not a devotee, now I might be. I think Taye Diggs was excellent. The scene where him and Miranda gave fist bumps was fantastic. I love seeing her fight off his ex-wife.

What I didn't like: Hmmm where do I begin. I guess I shouldn't say "didn't like", because I enjoyed everything. I just hate the fact that Yang gets involved with these extremely intelligent men who are psychologically screwed up. Own dumped his fiancé, who we never heard about in a two word email. Then he hasn't even told his mother he was home from war! Geeesh!
I still love the fact that Sloan is steadily crushing on little Grey. She seems young, but I'm crushing on her too so I can't blame him.

ABC did an excellent first rate job of cutting and previewing to keep me tuned in for the two hours. Kudos to the writers because I was all in during Archer's "dying" guilty spilling of his past sins. I felt sad with everyone else, and then. BLAM! He lives. That was great. What did you think?

Cosmo, TOP CHEF!

Top chef is great this season. I love hating Stefan, and I'm so happy that Carla made it to the final four. She is just like my girlfriends I went to school with. She is always saying things like, "Girl I was scurred". She is adorable and I'm glad that she has made it this far. I was so happy when Stefan overcooked his fish. I think that Hosea should stop worrying about Stefan and just concentrate on winning. Stefan is taking everyone out of their game except for my girl Carla.

Thanks Rosa - the official Top Chef Final four are: Carla, Fabio, Hosea, and Stefan. They will make it to the final show next week. FYI Carla is my favorite too, but Stefan is cocky and backs it up!

EPISODE RECAP

I knew Naomi was going to be toast this week. I think her religious father put the nail in the coffin. He was pressing the religion issue way too much, and the fact that Natalie never brought it up once, is her own fault. I think she undid her self.

Right now my money is on Molly (Grand Rapids, MI). I think he hit it off best with Jillian's Canadian family but Molly is better looking and a cute woman playing golf is hard to beat. I think he generally got along well with her family but just not as well as Jillian’s. Besides Molly looking better then Jillian I’m sure that Jason knows that depression can be hereditary and that would scare the “begeebers” out of me.

I would have been betting on Melissa but not meeting the parents with someone as traditional as Jason is, is going to be a problem for sure.

It's a little crazy to see Naomi go in tears and then for Jason to come back and announce the trip to New Zealand. I was like Damn! She was one rose away from the trip of a lifetime.

Oh well, she's a flight attendant, I'm sure she has frequent flier miles. She's got a low budget Eva Mendes thing going on. Holla at your Cosmo, I'll take her to New Zealand.

EPISODE RECAP

WATCH THE SHOW ONLINE

It’s strange to watch “Brothers and Sisters” after Desperate Housewives. One show is so serious and one is like a Dramedy.

Here is my smack Cosmo:

How the hell does Justin let the AAA Chelsea kiss him. That's crazy; but again men are crazy so I guess that is just art (script writing) imitating reality. The men on this show are just so damn disappointing. I mean how could Roger (the architect) not tell Nora that he was married.

Then we have manipulating Tommy doing crooked deals behind everyone's back and Rob Lowe planning to run for governor behind Kitty’s back.

I was happy to see Nora stand her ground at the end. After all that she has been through with her husband I actually thought Roger was going to talk her into it being in an open relationship.

Cheers for women standing their ground!

This is your girl Monica. How can you have a TV site without Grey’s.
Come’on, I just love that show. I thought it was jumping the shark but this weeks episode was great. I love Sloan little Grey affair, I just hope they keep it a secret, although it looks like that’s not going to happen. I’m happy the dead guy isn’t in the episodes anymore because that was getting way too annoying and kind of creepy.

It looks like Yang will finally be getting a peace too. I wish they would show more of Miranda and her home life. The last thing I remember is that they were having marital troubles. She is way too focused on her work. I loved every minute of this weeks episode. Grey’s is back!

Hey Monica,
Thanks for the post. It was just a matter of time before I got a Grey's posting. Now we are getting this site poppin! I agree with you on several points about this weeks episode of Grey's. I was lucky enough to catch it on Friday night. I love the fact that Sloan is "Tappin" little Grey. I thought they showed a lot of the Chief this week. I think the Chief's character is powerful, not to mention the dude is mad smooth.

I also think Yang was looking good this week. Sometime she looks sexy, sometime not. This was a good week for her. I'm still not a fan of Kevin Mckidd, but I guess he will do. I'm also not a fan of the Doctors freakin' out and needing hugs. These apre the people that are supposed to be cutting you open.

You also bring up a good point about Bailey's (Miranda's) personal life. I think she was married to that smooth black dude who played on living single. He was Khadijah's boyfriend Scooter. His real name is Cress Williams. (Of course I know that shzit, this is a TV site...plus I have "Google").

American Idol. HOLLYWOOD WEEK 1

2009-02-05T22:36:00.000-08:00

The begininning of Hollywood week was exactly what I suspected. I was happy to hear that Simon told them that if they forget the words that they are out. Really, if this is the biggest moment of your life, at least you can do is spend 24 hours learning the words. Come'on, 5 year olds learn the words to Barney songs in a matter of hours.

So far do we have any predictions on the winner? 75 people have made it to next week; it's still early. I think this guy: Michael Castro is my favorite so far. I think that's him. The punk rocker guy.

Post from Ann - Thanks Ann (Readers Post your Comments)

This season of the Real World Started off good but it's getting lame already. I'm already tired of Boobs (I believe she is referring to "Devyn") and the over drinking gay guy (I believe that would be JD although there are other suspected gay guys). There a no hot guys and the tatooed chick is played out. Are they going to get jobs like all the other seasons? I hope it gets better or will they kill it like they murdered The Guantlet.

Post from Peggy - Thanks Peg (Readers Post your Comments)

It’s funny how the previews made it look like Melissa got to meet Jason’s son Ty. I never get dragged into shows from the previews because they are all lies!

I don’t see how Jason can lay it on so thick with all the women. He keeps telling them things like “This can be you”. I think that’s kind of sleazy.

I think the fact that she has a kid already worked against her in the end. He wants to have more children with this new wife, and he like wowing the younger ladies and she wasn’t so easily wowed.

I think his pick is going to be Molly, or the other woman from Michigan. They need to cut the show to an hour. My prediction: Jillian is going home!

Lie To Me

2009-02-02T15:35:00.000-08:00

Hmmm....This weekend I was able to watch the much hyped "Lie To Me".

From writer Samuel Baum ("The Evidence") and the executive producers of 24 and "Arrested Development" comes LIE TO ME, a drama series inspired by a true story about a deception expert who can read the human face, body and voice to expose the truth in criminal cases and investigations.

I like the show because I like to read people so I was trying to pick up some good tips. I also love the fact that Kelli Williams is back on TV. She was Lindsay in the “Practice”, the problem is that when I'm watching this show.....she is still Lindsay.

Then there is Monica Raymund who I'm not familiar with, but she is hot. Smart, hot chicks rock!

Last but not least we have the star of the show: Tim Roth. This was the dude that kicked a$$ in the Incredible Hulk. I thought he actually outshined Ed Norton in the film.

Here is my problem with the show: First of all Tim Roth is not easy on the eyes. Yes I'm a heterosexual male but this guy is reminiscent to Kevin Mckidd on Grey's. He used to look alright but he's just aged rough.

As I'm watching the show, the whole thing feels all too familiar. Then it hits me! This show is "House" repackaged. The renegade leader who doesn't share his plans and is the smartest, smart ass with all the experience and at the end of the show he saves the day. So far it's working for me, but for how long. We will see how well it works for everyone else. What do you think?

FOR THE LOVE OF RAY J

2009-02-02T09:47:00.000-08:00

We are here to talk smack about TV and our favorite TV shows. I know there's 100's of people who refuse to watch reality shows and especially silly VH1 shows. Well that's not me. I watch anything and everything that I can find time to watch.

VH1 has been good for a few shows in the past, believable or not. Flavor of love, however entertaining was not real. As I watched, I cringed at the thought of a woman kissing that shriveled charred piece of a man.

It wasn't real. Then they had "Real Chance of Love". That was a little more believble but not quite. Who would really want to date a "Stallionaire".

Now we have "For the Love of Ray J".

Ladies and Gentlemen - we might hae a show that's done right. After the infamous video with the Kardashian girl Ray J has become a hotel room rental legend. The trailer looks good and the show premieres tonight.

It appears that he's got a classier stable of woman and my DVR is set.

Hopefully this leaves us plenty of smack talk to go around.

Here is the trailer.

Holla at your boy
