Summer TV is Almost Over!

I'm starting to get a little sick of my summer TV! It's all on 1 day, then nothing for the rest of the week! I mean yes, I am LOVING Rizzoli and Isles - last week's ep was awesome especially the ye olde costumes, that was TOO funny! This week's ep about witches was pretty good too, if not just for the cute little bit when Jane answered her phone 'Rizzoli' and Maura added "and Isles". But what is with Korsak and the animals? Last week birds, this week cats!

I like Weeds, but sometimes I could take it or leave it. The same goes for The Big C. I've been watching some quality SNL, but even that gets boring after a while. Otherwise I'm only watching Hot in Cleveland...which really sucks, and if I had better stuff to watch I wouldn't even bother!


I'm dying for my regular season shows back. Where there is more variety and they are more spread out over the week! Less than a month till Parenthood comes back. YAY! I'm most looking forward to Parenthood, Parks and Recreation and Private Practice coming back...and Grey's Anatomy too, to a slightly lesser degree. And I LOVED last season of Raising Hope, but I hope the 2nd season can keep up the quality standard of the first season. -The girls that play Hope are growing up and might not be as cute. Hah, but at least that's not what is holding up the whole show.
Speaking of TV babies it looks like plenty more Lucas this year on the PPP - but its all with Kate....is Addison kidnapping him?! hah. I've also been trying to be good and not reading about spoilers and storylines for all the shows. But I did make the mistake of reading 1 PPP storyline and now wishing I hadn't...cause while it didn't really give away much, its not at all specific and that leaves many potential ways things could turn out...and its gonna bug me now! -Still a month till that comes back too! Cause Grey's is getting a 2 hour premiere...which I'm sure will be awesome!

I don't even have any dvds to watch...I'm watching Alias commentaries, but thats not time consuming and I just watch them here and there.

TV Catch-Up

It's been a while since I've written about my TV. Its still summer tv season, so there isn't as much to watch and so not as much to write about. -The Emmy noms came out, and at least 1 of my 3 got nominated. Yay for Martha Plimpton for Raising Hope. But I still think KaDee Strickland was robbed for PPP! I mean if that didn't get her a nomination, what does it take?! I feel bad that everyone was talking her up, as being a potential nominatee. And Parenthood seems to be in the same group with PPP, not getting any big awards attention - but at least they both get some special awards for stuff that really matters.

Last Monday night I watched the Helpman Awards - Australia's version of the Tony's. It had plenty of good parts, but overall was boring as I only cared about the musical awards and spent most of the the time sitting on YouTube. It also went for ages so I ran out of time to watch In Plain Sight. So then that ate into my tv time Tuesday night. I ended up not watching Weeds and The Big C till Wednesday, but that actually worked out nicely. Other than those shows (and Rizzoli & Isles on Tuesdays), that is all the new TV I have. I have been watching some old SNL. I watched the Queen Latifah one from season 30 Sunday night. Its fun watching ones with Tina, Maya, Amy and Rachel in them.
And then when I'm REALLY bored or only have a little time, I've been watching Hot In Cleveland. It sucks, but not enough to stop me watching ...YET.

I've been watching the 1st season of Parks and Recreation on DVD. Luckily I finished it before I got this job -The same goes for Alias actually! I just finished the commentaries for P-Rex this past weekend. Overall the dvds are great especially for 8 bucks! The commentaries are great and with cast members. There are also music vids for Mouse Rat/Andy's songs. The Ann one is all cute Amy and Rashida bloopers/alternate takes. I really want season 2, but I'll wait for it to get cheap...I have principles. Not that 25 bucks is expensive, but it seems more than necessary.
Other than that there are no TV dvds I'm watching. I finished Alias -and while I remembered the last episode...I found myself not remembering a good deal of the last 2 seasons....also I could not for the life of me remember what happened to Sark!
Come September all the last seasons will come out on DVD. So I'll have lots to watch, and will have to find the time!

This week was the In Plain Sight finale. It was really good! I really thought they were going to kill Rachel Boston's character or Delia in that big hostage situation. But Brandi running out on her wedding and then Mary going into labor or having complications or whatever really works too! -I'm gonna guess that maybe we won't be seeing anymore Joshua Malina.

Well I guess that is more than enough for one blog post...I'll try to blog more frequently, so it doesn't get smushed together.
