I’m on vacation in Texas right now visiting the family and I’m having TiVo withdrawals! I haven’t watched OLTL in 2 weeks! I haven’t seen the Young and the Restless in 2 weeks! I haven’t seen Days of our Lives in 2 weeks! What the hell is wrong with me!? 
I can’t wait to get home simply to see my TiVo and hug my remote. Just kidding (or am I?)
Since being on vacation, I have had the opportunity to watch a few shows. I don’t really have time to make a bagillion posts so I’ll roll them all into one for today.
Grey’s Anatomy/Private Practice:
Apparently Derek was a god and was able to save Archer from his mess of worms in his brain. I was a bit sad about it because I think Archer is an annoying baby. Of course, Archer thought that Derek was an idiot and missed stuff and thought he was going to die and then he started to spout off all kinds of crazy stuff about how sorry he was… That was pretty pathetic but then he realized he wasn’t dying (because Derek is a god) and then he realized that he loves Naomi. Weird.
Anyway… Derek still hasn’t proposed to Meredith. Izzie thinks she’s ok but she’s having some problems with depth perception and other strange things are happening. She does, however, play a game with the interns and that was pretty cute. I think the best part about it was that Cristina had testicular cancer in the game. Cristina and Owen are kinda rocky to start off the episode but then they get better because she realized that she’s with the man that he is now and his ex-fiancee wants what he used to be… and that is no longer him.
I watched this right before we left for the airport so I’m trying to remind myself what happened… Sorry if I miss something. Violet wants to take a baby away from a mother who is suffering from post partum psychosis. It’s pretty sad and she’s quickly becoming an annoying pregnant woman. Pete is there to act like a jerk again and lay his claim on the baby. Other baby daddy is nowhere to be seen. Private practice is so boring compared to Grey’s Anatomy. I think there’s another week of them together next week. (Side note… I don’t like that they are giving Derek a god complex. Blah.) Here’s the preview for tonight’s episode:
House:
It’s between 13 and Foreman. I wish they would both go because they are incredibly boring. Instead, they fight and pretend that they are broken up so that House feels better about himself. House is also conflicted about going to see Cuddy’s baby… Of course, he hearts Cuddy and totally wants to be there and she wants him there but instead he plays sad songs on his piano while getting drunk at his house (with no hookers, might I add!) I like House but I’d really enjoy seeing him with Cuddy for more than just their little petty fights. Also, can’t we just get rid of Cameron and Chase? I mean, Chase is a hottie and all but Cameron is boring and also thinks that she knows best. Next week is an episode on a hermaphrodite and House stops breathing.
The Mentalist:
After watching that little youtube clip about the 5 reasons to love Patrick Jane (he’s so hot!) I can’t stop thinking about that during the episodes of The Mentalist. I wish they would make Patrick fall for his boss lady (her name slips my mind at the moment) because I think they would make a cute couple. In this week’s episode, the tall cop man (don’t know his name either) is investigating the murder of a country club socialite. In the end, he totally falls for one of the older women and his work conquest (young redhead cop… can’t remember her name either… jeez) is almost looking sad. The second best part of this show (after Simon Baker’s fine self) is the asian cop. I love how he’s got such a dry sense of humor. He’s pretty awesome. I found some awesome youtube clips of Simon Baker on the Ellen show. Watch them!
Other shows I was able to watch a quick comments…
Law & Order. I’m not sure if this is correct or not… but it seems like Jack McCoy is giving up on the office when he finally decides that the case can’t be tried because there’s no way to prove if one person is completely guilty and there are two suspects. Will this be the end of him on the show? Is he leaving?
NCIS. I loved seeing Tony as the main lead on the case. I thought it was pretty sad when he put that dude in prison for 3 years but he was a pretty big douche so I guess he deserved it. The best part of the episode was watching Gibbs be one of the people on the team and participating in the campfire. Pretty dorky and shocking (for viewers and his team!)
The Closer. Amy Sedaris, we love you. Who doesn’t love Amy Sedaris? She played the future sister-in-law who also happened to be an “intuitionist” (aka psychic!) She “helped” with the case that Brenda was investigating while entertaining everyone on the team. She even had them draw up Will Pope as the killer by a sketch artist. Awesome. If you haven’t watched the episode but like Amy Sedaris, it’s totally worth it.
That’s all for this week so far. I’m going to try and watch GA and PP tonight but we’ll see what happens. Keep it real everyone… and I’ll be back in Boston in front of my TV soon enough, I promise!
