Quick Hits: The Week in TV (w/e 11/20/09)
Wow, so this is way late, but I’ve been all busy tweeting and stuff. You understand.
The Amazing Race. Well, I’m sad to see Gary & Matt go home, but I love Meghan & Cheyne, so I’m glad they’re consistently at the top. I think they’re going to win.
Big Bang Theory. “When was the first day of your last menstrual period?” “I’ll put down ‘in progress.’”
House. I’m sad Cameron left. I hope she comes back. Poor Chase.
V. Good episode. Anna’s response to Mary Faulkner, saying she needed to be stopped, made me think of Joe the Plumber for some reason.
CSI: Horatio. SAHSM! Not the super-awesomest, but it was super-awesome all the same.
Glee. I kind of lost it when Puck sang “I’ll Stand By You” to the sonogram. I became the blubbering idiot. However, Quinn’s parents? Let me rant. They’re Christians and watch Fox News (specifically Glenn Beck), so they are, of course, alcoholics and completely incapable of forgiveness. Glee would do well to remember that conservatives love music and funny things, too, and they’ll probably last longer if they don’t try alienating half their audience.
The Middle. “You are the worst mom ever!” “Really? The state of Indiana disagrees.”
Castle. I can’t blame that hooker/madam for kissing Nathan Fillion. Can you?
Dancing with the Stars. Sabrina & Mark’s paso doble was insane. Fantastic. Also, Derek & Joanna’s futuristic paso was killa. Now on to this week. Joanna & Derek’s waltz was so beautiful. I was really mad that they didn’t get straight 10s. Also, on the night when Len praised the band and the singers, I heard the singers mess up twice (and then again once on the results show). Aaaaanyway, the results. Ridiculous. Joanna & Derek have been top 2 all season long. I mean, next week won’t even be a competition now. It’s Mya & Dimitri against no one. [Obviously I wrote that before I wrote the next week’s DWTS recap!]
The Office. Sticking Ryan in a closet by himself was awesome. Go Jim.
Bones. I like Booth’s grandpa. Also, Angela’s line. “That is so sweet. And also horrible.”
Community. “Speaking as one of the meek, as soon as I inherit the earth, you’re a dead man.”
Parks & Recreation. “Rule #1. Do not point the weapon at a person. That includes your own face, Donna.” “Guys love when you show them you’re better at something than they are.” “I’m sorry I lost my temper with you. It’s because I was shot in the head by a moron.”
Modern Family. This was the first episode where I finally got what all the hype is about. The scenes w/ the gay dudes and their friend in the bar was hilarious. She kept threatening to kill their baby. Now that’s funny.
Smallville. Lois + Clark = love 4ever. Yay! Also, “Kneel before Kal-El.” Um, that was a surprising end to that sentence.
SYTYCD. Loved the blackbirds, the kids, and the paso.
