A Little More To Go Around

There was a lot more on tv to watch this week. Yay.

Mr Sunshine - Again a not great ep, with a couple of awesome moments. Allison Janney and James Taylor's duet was awesome! LOVED IT! I admit I've re-watched it quite a few times. I love that the show is an outlet for the stars to use their talents, like singing, ice-skating, and tennis. But the stories themselves seriously suck!-

Raising Hope - Good ep this week, no singing though. I enjoy the silly little songs. One little joke about a tsunami in the ep though seemed very freakishly poorly timed - having been filmed months ago.

Off The Map - loved the Wicked reference. Lily Brenner is becoming a little more interesting. YAY. Ryan is a goner...sucky.  Everyone else is also getting more interesting and likable. Which is a good sign.
Enjoying the show overall....its not a fave, but a definite 'must watch' show, which is pretty close I guess.

Finally some of my other shows were back this week. I've missed them!

Glee - We finally got to regionals. YAY. I thought I wouldn't care for the original songs...but some of them were pretty cool. But I still don't understand how original songs isn't against the rules.....but anyways....
Storywise I don't think much happened....except with the whole Quinn, Finn, Rachel triangle. But I don't really care about that. Kurt and Blaine finally kissed....not that I care about them as a couple, but it was really about time. Poor Emma she's gone AWOL again.
-I didn't love their outfits, the blue dresses were not a great color for everyone...and the leggings underneath were unnecessary.
-The Warblers had good songs this week. It was the one week where I didn't care that they had so much of the story, because it fit - unlike other weeks were it felt tacked on.
-fave songs of the week include, Big Ass Heart -I find it hard not to love any song by Puck. Loser Like Me - Very catchy and a lot of fun.
-I loved the foam fingers and the glitter slushies!
-In a way I kinda like that its become the Rachel and Finn show again...hopefully the last few eps of the season will be good.
-One more thing, okay we knew they were gonna win, but what happened to a teeny tiny bit of suspense.
We'll see what the rest of season 2 brings...I hope they don't keep doing TOO many original songs...its gonna get really annoying.

Parks and Recreation - Finally they got up to the Harvest Festival. It was a fun ep. I did miss Rob Lowe though. Dunno when he'll be coming back. But boy was it good to have the show back! I hate when they have weeks off.

Community was kinda weird and almost boring. Minimal Annie - blink and you'd have missed her. The Jeff/Chang storyline was SOOOO annoying. I hate Chang with a vengeance. Britta, Abed and Troy's stuff was not of the most interesting either. Not a great ep, but I guess they can't be great all the time.

30 Rock was the worst! I can't believe how bad that was...well I can, because they had Sherri Shepherd leading it, as an ep of her character Angie's reality show. It was just BAD. Even Susan Sarandon couldn't save it.

Private Practice - So glad to have it back!!!! Not as 'fun' an ep as the previous one, it was still good overall. I do love the ones with ethics issues, because the line always seems to move within the ep - its never a clear decision one way or the other. Private Practice and Grey's Anatomy have always done ethical issues well.
I understand where that couple was coming from, but when did adoption become so low down the list of choices? Its just wrong. They suck! Cooper needs his own kid - he's gonna keep hijacking other's!

-I was glad they finally gave Amelia her own storyline...even as depressing as it was. Even if they had already had a test ep with that girl back in season 1....the whole would you want to know thing is still an interesting discussion..
-The whole Sam/Naomi thing was just wrong...Sam loses serious points for not being to worried about the fact that he made out with someone else while he's dating Addison...not cool!
-I was just thinking recently that they never used the conference room anymore...and then they did. Good.
-stupid Fife. I never liked him last season, so bringing him back wasn't fun. But I guess I can rule out Naomi going off with him as an exit. -My money is on her going off to Africa or something doing good deeds. 2nd option is her going to NY.
-poor Sheldon. Their friendly neighborhood shrink/'not boyfriend boyfriend' got overworked with everyone unloading their problems on him. So funny when he exploded on Charlotte, and told the men to take care of their women themselves.


Next week the fox shows Glee and Raising Hope are off, but some of the others will be back. Yay!
