So, I took another 2 month hiatus. I was really busy and TV free for FAR too long. Luckily its fall and all (except for 1) of the good shows are coming back or are back!
The Office
Well that was a heck of an episode. Only Jim Halper could propose at a gas station and everyone watching would be jealous! Do you know how many girls are going to get proposed to at gas stations now Jim? Or if they aren't will be completely disappointed? Although it was very romantic and completely adorable, it also showed me how pop culture is ruining America slowly but surely. Anyways, I thought the episode was great. Showed a lot of the good old humor some of last season was missing. I'm very optimistic for this season!
Fringe
Awesome show! I mean as we all know its a J.J. Abrams show so we could not expect less. The first episode is great and shows its potential but the rest just pull you in. I think it needs more of an ensemble cast but overall the characters are great. Olivia Dunham is no Sydney Bristow but she is fabulous. If you haven't tried the show then start!
How I Met Your Mother
Thank God this show came back. I watched seasons 1-3 all summer and I was ready for some new stuff. Barney in love with Robin is so cute but freakin weird. Ted and Stella aren't working for me but we all know she won't be the mother so I wish they would just move on! Either way this show is stil rockin' it.
Friday Night Lights
Premiers wednesday at 9 and is supposed to be better than ever!! I honestly cannot wait!
This may be one of my last posts for a while! My blog will be featured on www.thedailyblab.com under TV articles and reviews so check it out!

As a huge Neil Patrick Harris fan, I recommend this. If you make it through the first episode you'll probably be hooked. Act 3 comes out tomorrow so get caught up!

Can't have a TV blog without watching any TV
Hence why I haven't written in almost a month. Unfortunately, I have had zero time to watch TV. And from what I have seen, summer TV is really slacking. Apparently ratings are up, and TV viewers are at a high. But from what I've seen, TV quality is at a definite low.
The summer seems to be the season of reality TV. Celebrity Circus, America's Got Talent? I personally just could not get into these shows. To me, they aren't entertainment. A talent show judged by David Hasslehoff? That's like having Lindsay Lohan be a counselor at summer camp. I would never trust either of them!
Here's a thought, scripted TV. There's not much streaming around the TV river right now. The Secret Life of the American Teenager is actually my favorite so far. Don't get me wrong, I'm totally over the unplanned pregnancy phase of entertainment. Knocked up and Juno hit it big. The girls in Gloucester, MA, provided great laughs. Even Jamie Lynn Spears joined the bandwagon. But these girls were all a little trashy. We weren't that surprised. But Amy, she conceived her baby at band camp. Thats right, she's the all American good girl, who plays the French horn. She's the last person that you'd expect to get pregnant. She's too cute, too sweet, and never had a boyfriend (until now, after the pregnancy). She's falling in love, and you're really enjoying her cute life until you remember that she's pregnant. There's a lot of drama to come, and I don't know how long this show will capture my attention. But until then it will be my only summer show.
Anyways, I'd really appreciate if all of the TV writers and producers would read my entry on how to make the perfect show. That way, I wouldn't be caught watching shows that the writers of 7th Heaven wrote.
Lastly, shout out to Lost and the Losties! I miss you guys.

I cried during The Bachelor last night

It's true. I really cried. I've watched almost all 500 seasons of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette and I had yet to feel even a little bit emotional during any episode. I watched so many girls crying in limos, so many hearts being broken, and nope nothing. BUT last night was some damn good reality television.
The waterworks:
The tears were all for one man. And that one man's son. Last night Jason took DeAnna to his hometown in Seattle. There she didn't only meet his parents and relatives, she met his adorable son. Everything was going so well, I was falling in TV-love with Jason, DeAnna was on her way to falling in real life love with him. The hometown date was going great. His parents were perfect and loved DeAnna! She really fit into the fam quite nicely! (Seriously, I never have this much excitement when talking about this show) And then it was time for DeAnna and Jason to leave. Jason's son was so upset. You could really tell how close they were and how much the little boy loved his dad. It was just so freaking emotional. The tears just came out. You knew Jason didn't want to leave his son but he had to take a chance on love. SUCH GOOD TV!!
The Rose:
Or lack their of for poor Mr. Graham. Yes, he was ridiculously hot. Yes, he was a pro basketball player. Yes, he had emotional problems and couldn't open up to DeAnna. Last night's episode proved that WOMEN know more than men. I mean Trista proved that when she picked the only relationship that lasted in The Bachelor series. Graham is the male version of every single girl that bachelor's have picked in the past. But ahhh, we women know better than that. Although we all loved him, we knew it wasn't quite right for long term love and marriage.
SERIOUSLY, this is the best season so far of the series. Plus, TV sucks over the summer. Therefore, I had to write about The Bachelorette.

Top 10 Things We Look For In A Show

This article is being written out of the slowness of summer, and the hopes that every TV show creator will read my blog and create some awesome TV shows in this much needed time. When in doubt TV geniuses, model after shows like Lost.
Warning: The following list is not in order of importance.
10. An Island (optional)- This worked for Lost. But really, I think that an island only works every 40 years (Gilligan's Island). Thus, in about 42 years, come up with another genius island show and people will be hooked. This is assuming TV still exists in 42 years of course. Maybe instead of watching we will turn on our teleporters and we will be transported to our favorite shows!
9. Comedy- Depending on the show, this is more important than other aspects. But even in shows like Lost, there are characters that bring in the humor. As long as you know when to bring it and how to do it right, then by all means, the perfect TV show needs some Hurley.
8. Ensemble Casts- Let's be honest, all of our favorite shows have ensemble casts; Lost, Heroes, Friday Night Lights, Grey's Anatomy, Brothers and Sisters, and the list goes on. This obviously isn't required to make an awesome show, but it allows each episode to focus on different characters. It gives room for a much more interesting plot line and for the next item on my list...
7. Connections- This is my favorite thing when done well on a TV show. Bringing it back to Lost, the scene where Claire's mom told Jack that Claire was his sister and that she was on his plane was probably my favorite scene and favorite connection in season 4. Weird connections on shows sometimes seem far fetched but really we live in a small world and things like that happen all the time. Usually just because we run in the same circle, not because we are going to end up stranded on an island but you know what I'm saying.
6. Secrets- This is a major given. You can't just throw everything on the table and expect us viewers to be amused. We need questions, we need secrets. But then again, too many secrets can cause people to be impatient and give up. We need a happy medium.
5. Good Looking People- This is clearly not something I just magically came up with. Let's be honest, most lead characters are beautiful people. Heck, most supporting characters are pretty darn good looking. For some reason, we Americans just would rather watch pretty people fall in love or fight off the bad guys (who are good looking). Its just who we are.
4. Romance- Those good looking people MUST fall in love. All good TV shows have some kind of love story in them. Love triangles are the trend but either way we TV fans need some "aw" moments.
3. Drama- We need some good drama. Whether it comes in the romance, or from "the others" on an island, we need it to keep us watching. Lost has set the major standard though, we don't want just normal drama anymore. We want polar bears and black smoke. So figure it out.
2. Conflict- This obviously goes with drama, but we NEED conflict. Without conflict there is no reason to watch a show.
1. Happiness- We also like our characters to be happy. NOT in a fake way, but in a relieving way. They don't always have to be perky or anything, but when we watch we are kind of living through them. We want to relate to them and be happy and excited for the characters we are watching.
TV show to look out for next season:
Fringe: This is a J.J. Abrams production. AKA cannot be bad, and probably will include everything I mentioned above. Its about a female FBI agent who works with scientists to figure out some ridiculous events that have been occurring. Check out the trailer on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAu4L5_Fl84. It looks awesome!

Oh 'My Boys'ness

I really do not know where to start. I'm going to break it down into pros and cons, although the cons list will be much longer. Don't get me wrong, I still love this show, but the season 2 premier was not what I hoped for!
Pros:
-PJ and Bobby: This will most definitely be a con too but boy is Bobby cute. He's rich but doesn't show it. He's hot but doesn't really know it. He's my perfect man and probably doesn't know it. Either way I'd love him and PJ to get together but last night showed little hope for it happening too soon. Still though, I was perfectly happy with seeing him on the plane!
Cons:
- I wanted to write more pros but too many cons came into my head.
- They developed nothing in a half an hour.
-The gang wasn't together most of the show
- I can't decide whether I have a bigger crush on Bobby or Brendan.
- The Italy scenes were poorly done and just plain lame.
- Kellee Stewart. Enough Said.
Anyways, to be fair, I will give my favorite summer show many more chances to redeem itself. I still enjoyed the humor and the boys, but it needs a little more umph. Still though I can't wait for next week!
Around the TV world update:
Rumor has it that The Bachelor has failed once again. I really did love this season until the final Rose ceremony when Matt picked Shayne and I knew that there was no way he would marry her. I think everyone knew, including Shayne, that it wouldn't work out except for him. Poor guy, hope he finds "the one".
Britney Spears is on the ballot to be an Emmy nominee for her performance on How I Met Your Mother. This is quite the shocker to me, but congrats to her although I doubt she'll make the cut.
I miss Lost.
Okay well, that's all for now, but keep readin' and believin'.

Reunions and Separations
It's true. Its the month of reunions and separations. The month when some of our favorite T.V. shows end and some of your favorite summer shows return. The month where actors and actresses part ways due to a cancellation or hiatus and where actors and actresses reunite due to cast additions. This month is bitter sweet. But T.V. is T.V. and its been this way for years. So lets reacquaint ourselves with the reunions and separations of this summer.
Reunions
1) Kristen Bell and Francis Capra AKA Veronica and Weevil AKA Elle and Jesse: Boy this real world/T.V. world can get confusing. Anyways, Francis Capra is joining the Heroes cast next season and will definitely be sharing at least one scene together. Hopefully this isn't the closest thing we get to a V.Mars reunion show.
2) My Boys: I've missed PJ and the gang so much over this long hiatus. I need to know who gets on that plane with PJ and I will wait no longer than this Thursday night!!
3) Burn Notice: Not quite this month but still, I cannot wait to get reunited with this show's action, comedy, drama and everything else it entails.
Separations
There are wayyyy too many to list them all but here are a few.
1) Lost and Us: Obviously this is a very traumatizing separation for me. I will try and make it through Febuary without this show but it will be quite hard. Luckily, I am willing to re-watch the last 4 seasons over again to help my situation and I recommend this gesture to all of you.
2) Oceanic 6 and the Islanders: Another very sad separation that we will have to deal with and our favorite characters will have to deal with. But we'll let future Losties and Lost viewers deal with that problem in Febuary.
3) The prime T.V. season: Boy, I will definitely miss all of my favorite shows. How I Met Your Mother, The Office, and so on. The summer doesn't quite bring enough heat. Well at least in terms of television, its bringing a little too much heat weather wise.
The reunions are glorious and the separations are heartbreaking but either way we will survive this summer. And when fall comes around we will be ready for a whole new set of reunions and separations.

Summer is almost here!

For me, and most of the other college students out there, summer is here! For the rest of you, hang tight its on its way. The ONLY negative side to summer is that our favorite T.V. shows go on hiatus. Its sad but I'm here to make a top 10 list of shows to buy and get addicted to this summer if you don't already watch them.
10) Nip/Tuck- This show is awesome and very addicting. If you don't like shows that show too much then this might not be the one for you
9) Alias- There are 5 seasons of this show. 3 of them are 3 of the best seasons of a T.V. show ever. 1 is still awesome. and 1 is a little disappointing. Once you start though you can't stop. If you've never watched Sydney Bristow kick butt, its time to start.
8) The Tudors- This Showtime show is really good. Its about Henry VIII and its not exactly what we learned back in middle school.
7) Friday Night Lights- This show seems like a show only about football, but its so much more than that. Its an awesome drama and very addicting. I highly recommend it.
6) Big Love- This show isn't quite like most of our lives, I should hope. But its the best show about a polygamist I've ever seen.
5) How I Met Your Mother- If you've read me before you know how much I love this show. But whenever you're in the mood to watch something light this is the show to watch. If you like Friends, you'll LOVE this show.
4) The Office- Obviously The Office is on my list. Its the kind of show you can watch over and over again and its just hillarious. I definitely recommend this for the summer.
3) Heroes- Heroes is another awesomely addicting television show. This is the show I got addicted to last summer and it's definitely worth watching all day.
2) Veronica Mars- Anything bad you've ever heard or assumed about this show, throw it out the window. There are 3 awesome seasons completed of this show and its totally worth the time put into it. Once you start you won't be able to stop but you'll love it.
1) Lost- I don't know if i could invest 4 more years of my life into Lost but every second I have spent watching this show has been totally worth it. I'm jealous of anyone who could start now and just watch these episodes right in a row. This is a show that once you start you actually can't give up on. But if you make it to the fourth season (which is where the rest of the world is now), then you'll be happier and more satisfied with show then ever. And you'll realize it is the best show on television.

20 days later
So since Lost is off air for a bit I decided the rest of T.V. wasn't worth watching and therefore haven't been writing. HAA just kidding.. that would never work for me. Lost deserves such praise but like I could just stop watching T.V.
But for real, I haven't had too much time...
How I Met Your Mother
Its just so clever and good. Like I say basically EVERY week, IF YOU DON'T WATCH ALREADY START WATCHING!! Seriously watch 3 in a row and you will not regret that choice. So the Britney episode, was a little disappointing. I mean, in general, it was still a fun episode. But her performance of a dumb receptionist was weak. I mean what should I expect, in real life she's not a receptionist, she's a famous "singer" who has been to rehab, lost her kids, overdosed. Her life must be too dramatic to play a simple secretary. Ha harsh I know, but I'm not the biggest Britney Spears fan. Other wise in this episode I may have fallen in love with Ted Mosby a little bit more. And still, I'm obsessed with this show. The two episodes since have also been awesome!
The Bachelor
Yeah, yeah, I know. I said without Lost I couldn't stop watching T.V. but I didn't say it was good T.V. So for the millionth season of The Bachelor its not too shabby. Always fun drama, always people I don't like, always cute boy (who is British this season !!!!). Whyyyyy wouldn't I watch this show? Okay, don't answer that. But its fun, not my favorite show, but there's not much on T.V. right now! Anyways I still love it.
The Office
The Office returns this Thursday and I've never been happier :). Well maybe I have but come on.. its The Office. A spin-off of The Office is on its way into production. I don't know many details, being located in Syracuse, NY (not exactly LA) right now, but I'll let you know when I get some.
Alright gotta jet. I'll update more when I get time.

New Amsterdam review

New Amsterdam
Four episodes have aired and I actually really like it. I wouldn't call it one of the best shows on television but it's still fun. Not to mention Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (John Amsterdam) has won over my heart :). Its basically about a homicide detective in New York City who is immortal because he saved a Native American girl in 1642. She rewarded him by allowing him to live without aging until he finds the "one" for him. The plot lines/crimes are a little too easy to figure out and there are a few other things to look past but overall I enjoy watching it. It definitely could get old and maybe would have made for a better movie but I'm willing to watch until it bores me and so far it's not even close. I recommend everyone to give it a shot and hopefully it fills its potential!
Sorry that's all for now.. gotta jet.

10 Characters to Party With on Saint Patty's Day

It's been a while since I've done a top 10 list and it's Saint Patty's Day so it's clearly an occasion!
10. Veronica Mars- Had the show not been canceled, she would have been at the top of my list. But as all fans know, she's one of the coolest people to hit the TV planet. If you've never watched, buy the first 3 seasons. They are worth every penny.
9. Peter Petrelli- He would clearly be the eye candy at our Saint Patty's Day partayyyy. But also, he has spent his time in an Irish pub and would know how to celebrate this holiday.
8. Ted Mosby- Oh Ted. He also spends so much time at McLaren's Pub you know he'd be fun on Saint Patty's Day. Sadly he's not vomit free since 93' anymore.
7. The Taylor's- I basically just LOVE them. They are my favorite TV family. Even though it could be awkward if I joined in on their Irish festivities, it'd probably be awesome. "Clear glasses, full drink, can't lose."
6. Tim Riggins- Well, we all know he's a drinker. We all know he's a looker. Thus, no more explanation is needed.
5. Hurley (and I guess the rest of the Oceanic 6)- Okay so, Hurley is the man. And hanging with him on this holiday would be an honor, but I guess the rest of the "Oceanic 6" should probably join too. So far they are good even if everything is a little f@$#ed up once they get off.
4. Charlie Pace- May he rest in peace. But seriously I love this guy. That last episode may have been the reason for putting him on this list but if he were still "alive" than I would have to be partying with him tonight.
3. Liz Lemon- She'd basically be hilarious and spunky and clearly would be awesome to party with.
2. Chuck Bartowsky- Well besides my intense infatuation with him, I would just love to see Chuck Bartowsky get drunk for St. Patty's Day and then have to go on a mission. Anyone else?
1. Barney Stinson- He basically doesn't need an explanation if you watch the show. If you don't, I still won't give you much of an explanation so WATCH the show! But he's the man and every night will be "LEGEND... wait for it and I hope you're not lactose intolerant because the second half of that word is DAIRY!"

Suit Up and Save How I Met Your Mother (and other fav. shows)

If you were unaware, you can basically watch ANY show online. You can also buy any show on DVD. Now it's time to go do it...
Every single online viewing helps. Every single DVD purchase helps. Tomorrow night HIMYM comes back on and we need all the viewers we can get. Now-a-days it is so easy to catch up on a show, and How I Met Your Mother was one of my favorite sitcoms to get addicted to. It's barely below Friends on my favorites list (and I own all 10 seasons of Friends and know most lines in most episodes). If you're not addicted now then start watching! If you are addicted now then get all of your friends to jump on the band wagon.
Next on my list of saving: Friday Night Lights. Everything that I said above applies.
If these shows get canceled then all hope is lost in the TV world for me. At least until they wow me with something else that's as good as Lost. Well that's all for now. Adios Muchachos.

Rob Thomas//LOST update

"Rob Thomas is a whore" -Piz
So, just thought I'd throw in a Veronica Mars quote on behalf of Rob Thomas writing 2 pilots right now. One, a remake of Cupid. The other, a spinoff of 90210!! Thank goodness we might get some RT back in our lives. It may be the closest thing we have to Veronica Mars for a long time besides re-watching our dvds.
Now on to Lost...
Last night's episode was all kinds of awesome.
Flashback/Flashforward- So Lost is taking advantage of its flashback/flashforward abilities by putting them into one episode. If I hadn't been watching for four years, I may have fallen for that little trick. But I'm clearly becoming a Lost "expert" and could tell which was which. As for the rest of the show, I am usually lost. Anyways yay for Sun's baby! And I don't buy for a second that Jin isn't still on that Island.
MICHAEL- So that would have been such a good surprise if we all hadn't known that Michael was Ben's spy on the ship. But either way, I love that Desmond and Sayid know now, and I love how they acted like they had no idea who he was.
Next week is supposed to have a ridiculous cliff hanger and we will have to wait a month until the next episode. Fortunately/unfortunately, we Lost fans are used to waiting, and know now that it's worth it.

A week in review
So yet another week went by and I wasn't able to write so here's another catchup post.
Britney Spears hits the small screen
It's true! She'll be starring on CBS's How I Met Your Mother. As a huge HIMYM fan I'm definitely a little skeptical, but the writers are talented enough to pull this off (I hope). I'll definitely be suiting up for the episode and I suggest that the rest of you tubers do. Its been a while since we've seen Britney Spears anywhere besides the tabloids. How I Met Your Mother Premiers again: Monday, March 17th!!
Lost is still awesome
It really really is. As I watched this episode, I thought it was just a filler. Really though it was great.
So I've watched 2 weeks worth of episodes. This show is good in theory but it just gets old. I clearly invest a lot of time in T.V. but this just seems like too much for an average show. I'll let you know if I change my mind.
That's all for now. Sorry nothing special but stay tuned.

- What we learned
- Ben is confirmed a major creeper: He said Juliet was his and had Harper killed because he knew that him and Juliet were having an affair.
- Ben is a confirmed liar: I doubt Widmore is coming to exploit the island.
- JACK AND JULIET KISSED
- What we questioned
- Who is "her"? Harper told Juliet that Ben likes her because she looks just like "her".
- What was really up with the Widmore video?
- WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON THIS DAMN ISLAND?
So I've watched 2 weeks worth of episodes. This show is good in theory but it just gets old. I clearly invest a lot of time in T.V. but this just seems like too much for an average show. I'll let you know if I change my mind.
That's all for now. Sorry nothing special but stay tuned.

Catch Up Time

So, it's been a while. Life has been hectic in the past month while a lot has happened in the T.V. world...
The Strike is over!!!!
Thank goodness! This strike was the cause of many bored hours for me. The only good thing about the writers strike was the fact that I got to catch up on Friday Night Lights and How I Met Your Mother! If you don't watch them now, it is absolutely time to start. Anyways, shows will start to resume at the end of the month or April and I cannot wait!
Lost continues to be the best show on T.V.
WOW. Season 4 has been amazing. Although it has brought along 9 million more questions and only a few answers, I am completely satisfied. Last year at this time I was getting so frustrated I only wanted 4 seasons. I just wanted to know the answers already. Now, I could handle 10 more seasons of a show this good. If you don't watch Lost by now, I would say do it. Its a long frustrating investment but definitely worth any couch potato's time.
HBO's In Treatment
New kind of show. Its on 5 nights a week. Its about a therapist and each night of the week is a different patient. So far it's great! I haven't watched very many but I'll let you know how it goes. Let's be honest though, it's an HBO show how bad can it be?
NBC's 52 week season
Full details will be revealed in April but basically instead of a September-May television season, it will last all year! Thank you NBC! Hopefully this won't make America fatter.
Post-Strike cancellations
Now that the strike is over... there are talks of many shows getting canceled. Nothing is definite yet but some of my favorites include; Friday Night Lights, How I Met Your Mother, Men In Trees and many other good shows that might not deserve a cancellation. So get watching and try and save these shows!
Okay well thats all for catch up time. From now on I'll try and write more often.

Top 10 T.V. Episodes

I figure that because of the writers strike, its pretty hard to write anything thats recent news so i decided to create my Top 10 favorite t.v. episodes. This is subject to change after I see the 8 new lost episodes that are supposed to be ridiculously awesome. I tried not to reveal anything that would ruin any series.
10. How I Met Your Mother- "Slap Bet"- Absolutely hilarious. If you haven't seen it, watch it!
9. 30 Rock- "Rosemary's Baby"- I could not stop laughing.
8. Friends- "The one the Morning After"- This episode was after Rachel finds out Ross slept with the copygirl while they were "on a break". This is probably the deepest and most emotional episode in Friends' history besides when Chandler and Monica got engaged. Ross and Rachel cry together over their breakup while the other four friends are in Monica's room listening. This was a very clever way to bring humor into an otherwise very sad episode.
7. Friday Night Lights- "Black Eyes and Broken Hearts" This show deserves to be on this list somewhere. Most episodes are consistently really good, but this one stood out to me. This is one of the best dramas on T.V.
6. The Office- "Casino Night"- I mean we were all waiting for Jim to admit he loved Pam. This episode wasn't the funniest episode of The Office ever but definitely one of my favorites.
5. Dexter- "The British Invasion"- Great episode. This show kept me from losing faith in TV
4. Lost- "Live Together, Die Alone"- This was the finale of season 2 which I thought was the best lost episode until I saw season 3's finale. Clearly these Lost writers no how to get us coming back for more.
3. Veronica Mars-"Leave it to Beaver"- This episode sealed the deal on the already underrated t.v show. It was the season finale of season 1 and had the awesome quirky side of Veronica and the same level of suspense as Lost or Heroes.
2. Alias- "Phase One"- This is one of the best shows ever so I felt it was needed on my list. This is my favorite episode.
1. Lost- "Through the Looking Glass"- This was the season finale of season 3. My favorite episode of television ever. Definitely sad when "you know who died" but they definitely couldn't have done it better. Everything about this episode redeemed their season 3 downfalls.
