tv

By 11:00 last night I was so over TV this week.  I’m going to have to cut out something or quit watching everything at night or something.  But I do have to say last night was the BEST night of premiere week although all the shows I watched weren’t the premiere.

Survivor – I fast forwarded through all the challenges.  They bore me.  It seems Leslie’s good nature came out for good this week as she got the clue.  But why in the world she felt the need to actually share it with someone, I have no clue.  I wish Dave would have went but I understand why they voted Ashley.  Dave is a good worker.  But Dave is going to be Dave and I don’t think he’ll only rub Ashley the wrong way in the future.

The Office – I LOVED LAST NIGHT.  Last night might have been one of my favorites.  When they showed Jim and Pam in her car, my sister and I literally started screaming and clapping.  Woo Hoo!  And they were holding hands, awwww.  And there was funny stuff…"And she wasn’t even one of the popular ones."

Grey’s Anatomy – While this wasn’t nearly one of my favorites, I thought it was pretty good.  There were so many changes and people though it almost didn’t seem like Grey’s.  What are they going to do with all of those interns??  I miss Bailey!  I was surprisingly not upset that Derek and Meredith were breaking up.  Although I don’t really understand that conversation.  He was asking too much?  What was he asking for?  Why is it too much for her?  She obviously wants to be the girl from the bar and yet won’t give enough of herself to be that.  George’s little confession at the end was sweet but that’s going to mess things up a little.  Callie’s in for some disappointment.  Maybe she’ll get mad and leave the hospital and then Bailey can take back over.  Yes, that would be nice.

Private Practice – I was really very scared I wasn’t going to like Private Practice.  I didn’t much like it when Grey’s Anatomy showed Addison in LA but Shonda Rhimes didn’t disappoint and created a great Season Premiere of Private Practice. 

Dancing with the Stars – Content with who went.

Gossip Girl – Can I just say I really like Dan?  They make it so you really want the best for him and if it wasn’t for him,  you’d pretty much hate everyone on the show.  Except for little Jenny.  And she’s headed for big trouble.  Blair and Chuck just need to get over themselves.

I was at band practice and a lovely 3. hour. Pampered Chef show so I didn’t get to see anything live tonight.  Here’s what I did watch..

Dancing with the Stars – I watched the performances online and didn’t see the judges’ comments.  But the only ones I made it through the entire performance and thought were decent were Albert Reed and the Castroneves guy.  The worst was Wayne Newton.

House – *spoiler* I love that guy.  Great season opener even though it seemed like a really small cast.  There were several moments that were particularly funny but since I didn’t write them down, I don’t remember them.  I do have to say at the end when they realize it’s not the right girl, it hit you right in the gut.  Didn’t see that coming at all.  Great, new twist to the story.  And House NEEDS a team.  I’m sort of hoping they don’t try to replace each character but have some new chemistry going on.

That’s all I got to see tonight.  Tomorrow is the Patricia Heaton/Kelsey Grammer one and then Private Practice.  Oh, and Gossip Girl.  Whew.

Um, that was 3 tv shows ago that I watched.  All this new fall tv is draining me.  Let me see who I remember..

•  I think the Cheetah girl, Sabrina I think, did well.  I rather liked the hip hop moves in the routine, Lynn, thank you very much.
• Jane Seymour did well.  So elegant.  Not sure how she’ll do with Latin though.
• Marie Osmond is definitely rubbing me the wrong way.  Just her attitude. 
• Jennie Garth is just so cute and down to earth.  I really like her and she has some work to do, but I thought she did quite well.
• Mel B. is really likeable.  I thought she did really well.
• The model didn’t do so well.  She’s gorgeous but she has a lot of physical work to do. 

So on to the men tomorrow night…

First episode of the season and woah, this one is quite the hottie.  Wow.  I agree with one of the contestants that said “I’m just happy to stare at him for a little while.”  All that aside, seems like some good contestants this year.  So far no evil ones standing out.  Definitely some party girls though.

I really like the girl he gave the first impression rose to.   Deana with the black and white striped dress was really cute.  The tongue thing and feet thing was really weird.  Melissa went off the deep-end…but the sweetness. The pretzel was not so impressive as a first impression.  The pool girl was gorgeous but a little too forward and presumptuous on the first night.

Hard to pick any front-runners or favorites at this point.

Can’t tell you how glad I was that Cosmo won.  I was practically chanting his name waiting for Mystery to announce it and yes, I clapped and screamed when his name was called.  I thought he was a good candidate from the beginning.  This process just brought out his best and gave him the confidence he needed to be a Master. Pick-up. Artist. ha

O M G.  I can not believe Jason and his new what’s-his-name girlfriend–oh excuse me, fiance.  He went after her right after his engagement was announced.  And then that girl stood right in between Jason and Lauren and gave her that look.  Low class.  But I’m glad to hear Lauren is coming out of the fog the next day.  Go Lauren.

And why does Heidi expect Spencer to be so excited about registering? “We’ll resume this on another day.”  Actually, I think I like that line and may have to use it.  “Oh, honey, you mean you don’t want to shop for shoes with me?  Oh, well, we’ll resume this on another day.”  Spencer hasn’t told his parents???  He is such a loser!!  Ugh.

For all the searchers from Google…the finale is Sunday Sept 30. I don’t know who wins but everything I’ve read online this morning has Jess as the winner.
