NEW Blog
This blog is clearly inactive, for some time now. In fact, it’s been inactive for longer than it’s been active. Just follow the new blog and let’s see how long I’ll keep at that:
Survivor, why can’t you do things right? [spoiler]
Week after week, I wait for the remaining survivors to band together and take out Russell. He’s really not that good. Especially this season.
Glee post-break
Is it just me or has Glee been lacking since it came back from its long hiatus?
A lot of obvious things are being thrown into our faces. We get it, Brittany is dumb and Sue is mean.
Also, I love Kristin Chenowith but her second appearance on the show was underwhelming. No fault of hers. It was just a lackluster episode. Glee shouldn’t try to be serious or take itself seriously. It’s a go-to show for over-the-top campiness and fun.
I don’t know what can bring the excitement back. They should have stretched out the will-they-won’t-they romances. Everyone’s had a shot at romance with everyone already. Although, they did recently hold auditions for new cast members, so maybe Ryan Murphy has something in mind to draw the audience back in. (Not until season 2 though.)
LOST, you son of a bitch [spoiler]
Whatever has happened up to this point since I last wrote anything doesn’t matter. What matters is Sun and Jin reuniting one week and dying in each other’s arms the next. What the WHAT! I don’t think I’ve ever cried during a LOST episode before that scene from last night’s episode (except maybe during last season’s finale when Sawyer couldn’t save Juliette).
WOW! I mean, I know Sayid died and Lapedis is probably dead, but their deaths were overshadowed by Sun and Jin. Wasn’t it reminiscent of Titanic? Ugh, how tragic… I was totally waiting for them to reappear when Jack waded back into the ocean to have himself a cry. Oh and the whole lot of them crying. I had just newly wiped my ugly cry away, but when Hugo started wailing I was close to bawling again. There was one thought that took me out of the moment and kept me from shedding the little moisture I had left: they’re all going for an Emmy this season.
V and me
V is back, but it’s been gone so long that I’m finding it hard to get back into it. It was just getting interesting when it last left off. Unfortunately, I don’t even remember where it left off or what’s happened thus far. What’s going on? I feel like the biggest plot twists on the show revolve around a big reveal that someone is a Visitor or a big reveal that someone isn’t a Visitor. It’s kind of like The Vampire Diaries in that way. There’s always someone who is a vampire who you totally thought was human—no way! At least on True Blood they throw in some weird shape shifters or whatever. I’m waiting for one of these shows to reveal an adult that is actually a baby. An adorable little human baby.
Project Runway [spoiler][let’s play catch-up]
I’ve been watching Project Runway but I just haven’t written about it. I’ve been too busy talking to my TV, Tim Gunn (on TV), and the judges (on TV) to jot anything down. And by “jot” I mean “type”. And by “type” I mean “smashing some keys on my laptop”. So, let’s play catch-up!
time machine
I can’t believe my last post is from three days ago. I feel like I just posted the damn thing, whatever it was. This must be some April Fool’s joke. God is April Fooling me, that’s how important I am.

LOST - Recon
I was going to combine this post with the one for the following episode because I’m so behind. Instead, I decided against it since the next one is Richard Alpert’s first and only episode. To top it all off, this episode is a Sawyer one and I loves me my Sawyer. However, the absolute BEST part of the episode was the brawl between Claire and Kate. Oh, and then Locke got involved? Belated birthday gift for me? Thanks, LOST!
Big Love Season 4—Telenovela? Definitely. Awful? Maybe not.
So I finally watched the full fourth season of HBO’s Big Love. Just in time, I guess, because the day right after I concluded the season, there was big talk about Chloë Sevigny trashing this season of the show and its writers. Let’s not get out of hand here, people. Okay, she called this season “awful” but her explanation makes sense. There’s an audio clip of the actual response which can be found at the bottom of this article.
Sevigny describes this season as “very telenovela” and, uhhh… it’s true! Other points she made are also equally valid. The show only had 9 episodes this season and it packed a lot in them—truth. A lot of the storyline was far fetched, especially with the whole political campaign—truth.
I mean, she even says in that short audio clip that she loves the show. She covered her tracks the first time, she shouldn’t have to apologize any more than she has. I guess celebrity gossip is just slow lately. Although, did you see Lindsay Lohan’s powder shoes? What’s going on there, sister-friend? No more of that, I need a Mean Girls reunion. I watched that movie again yesterday…how is it so good?
