This past Saturday, my one-eyed Chihuahua (Lucy) met a HUGE yellow lab (Maximus). I think they will be great friends. Thanks to Kyle's dog whispering skills, Max was very well-behaved. The whole family loved him!
I have been trying like crazy to keep up to date with the latest fall TV, and thanks to Hulu, this has not proven too difficult for an insomniac like me:) I thought I'd share my opinions and some of the lesser known shows that you, my readers, may be missing. Here goes. In weekly order: cause I am OCD.
This is an oldie, but a goodie. NOTE TO PARENTS: Don't be fooled by the cartoon nature of this program, it is not for kids. Family Guy takes intellectual jokes and intersects them with absolute absurdity. These are two of my favorite things, so, of course, I enjoy this program. Judge me if you will :)
D-list celebrities + ballroom dancing = hilarity. I know this is supposed to be a serious show, and some of them CAN actually dance. But those are not the entertaining numbers. When Tom DeLay(old as dirt politician) almost breaks his back cause he can't hold up his partner, or when Chuck Lidell (UFC Fighter) looks like a bull trying to tap dance his way through a china closet, that is when this show is at its finest.
Kinda like "Friends," but with a new age twist. Also a bit more quirky humor and one-liners. It is pretty much a perfect 20something - 30something Monday night comedy a la Neil Patrick Harris.
I have to say, I'm overall disappointed with Heroes. I LOVED the first season, after that it got kinda convoluted. New people, new powers, new rules. The same has been true of this season so far. They will have to pull out some pretty big guns in the next episode or they will be with one less viewer.
Another show that is centered around music and people who love it. If you don't love music, don't watch it. There are so many wonderful things about this show. It is different, edgy, full of fantastic music, and WONDERFUL stories. I, being a choir nerd, find it especially easy to relate to, since I knew somebody like EVERY SINGLE cast member.
Three families. One great show. This show has the humor of "Arrested Development" in the interview style of "The Office". The candid shots of family life are more than entertaining, and it is an important representation that in today's world the nuclear family really no longer exists.
A great drama from J.J. Abrams (creator of Lost). Much like Lost, there is a mystery (or thousands) to be solved. It seems like this one is going to be another cult favorite with a following to boot. For those of you that are LOST fans, I think this will fill your plate until January 2010.
Joel McHale, whom you may know from "The Soup" on E!, blazes his comedic timing in this new sitcom about the social circle of community college. Chevy Chase is also hilarious and adds to the crazy amalgamation of characters put into this show. There is something so wonderful about the mixture of people that they have put togethere here.Today, after I woke up from what I can oy describe as a day long intermittent nap, Heather came over and we caught up on DVR shows. Dinner was held at Johnny Carinos, because we both needed to indulge ourselves in carbohydrates. We proceded to Market Street for Cupcakes, and, in true best friend fashion, we couldn't decide on a single flavor of cupcake, so we got two boxes. After So You Think You Can Dance, we made it to the media room for movies. It was a perfect best friend night. Full of laughs, random moments of breaking into song, and hoodies. I'll leave you with pictures that I feel will depict the night well:-)
but what if you only had one? ok...some of them aren't ACTUAL words...YET. just you wait. this was probably one of the most fun blogs i've ever compiled.
