Well, How I Met Your Mother was hilarious. I give you the best use of auto tune of all time. I love when Barney is naive (Papa!); even though it's unrealistic, it makes him seem more human. Not needing to meet his father because his mother was enough was really sweet. Plus, now we don't have to worry about a "who is Barney's dad?" plotline. Bob Barker is just fine by me. Marshall and Lily were a bit boring this week, but Robin and Ted's light story line was entertaining.
I'm still not sure about Mike & Molly. When Mike said, "I'm going to marry that girl someday," all I could think about was the episode of HIMYM when Ted and Marshall, as college students, get stuck in a snowstorm. Marshall says the same thing about Lily to Ted. Maybe I'm just partial to my old friends at HIMYM, or maybe because I know Marshall and Lily do get married, but I feel like it was more sincere when Marshall said it. As much as I like the characters of Mike and Molly, Molly's mother and sister aren't enjoyable characters to watch. I'll keep watching, but I'm not sure this show will last very long. I hope I one day have to eat my words. Pun not intended.
I'm pleased with how quickly story lines are developing on 90210 this season. We already know what Annie's manager wants (her eggs -- how lucky she is to be asked and not just harvested), Javier's manager/uncle knows Adrianna stole the songs (what will she have to do to prevent him from exposing her), Teddy has already hooked up with a guy (just when Silver's going to forgive him), and Silver knows Naomi wasn't lying about Cannon (close one, Silver!). Ivy and Dilxkmla;weknoaer... sorry, just fell asleep there.... Didn't see much of Liam (or his brother) this week -- maybe next?
I'm so happy Blair and Serena joined forces. I'm sick of their fighting, although I have a feeling being roommates is going to spark a lot of tension between them. Is Gossip Girl part of Hamilton House? Is Katie Cassidy's mouth bothering anyone else? Blair's insults to Fleur were harsh, but amazingly-Blair. I like Fleur and am glad that she's sticking around... for now. Is Milo gone? That's it? Just 4 episodes (this season's 3, plus last season's finale) of Georgina's craziness? Pretty weak, writers. Vanessa's moving in. Gross.
Also, can somebody please tell the sound mixing guy at CW that I still can't hear dialogue over the music? It's extremely annoying.
Britney episode of Glee tonight!!!!!!!!!!!! I know they're not using this song, but who can resist? Oh hey Melissa Joan Hart and Adrian Grenier.
Ahhhh. Drive Me Crazy! Can't even count the number of times we've watched that.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I laughed out loud several times.
ReplyDeleteThere are already so many good story lines on 90210 to follow. I completely agree with you on the borefest that is Ivy and Dixon, though. Ivy just bugs me for some reason.
I love that you keep referring to Chuck's girl as "Fleur" (aside: Umm did you SEE that HP trailer?!)... I can't help thinking that her character is up to something too. She just seems too sweet and innocent.
I'm looking forward to reading your thoughts on Greys, Glee, and Vampire Diaries! (am I forgetting anything else? haha)
