so?

I kept waiting for something exciting, something unexpected and the only thing that happened was rolling credits.

Was it me or was that a dull episode of Lost last night? Did we care about the tattoo? That seemed such a lame-ass tacked on story. Nothing that happened in the whole episode was surprising at all. Nothing. Hopefully they are setting something up but I just can't imagine what we needed to be dragged through that one for.

Yeah, yeah, every show has a few lame episodes, but this one hasn't had many so I will wallow in my disappointment for a little while longer.

Sorry Charlie

Eek! So Desmond is trying really hard but life just keeps "course correcting." Does that mean that he has lived all of this before? Does he know a lot more about the island than we have gotten so far?

Creepy old lady. Very creepy. I don't care if you were one of the ya-yas!

Next week looks amazing!

Justice or revenge?

So which was it? When House was pulled over, you knew it was that patient, right? You had to have seen that coming.

Somehow I never get mad at House. He acts out all the mean things that I censor and I gotta love him for that. Not sure how he will be getting out of the pill situation though.

Lost? Ewwwwww! I know I am a week late with this one but things here have been crazy. I almost flipped when they shoved that needle in Sawyer's chest. But I like that creepy Ben is conning the con artist and making Sawyer look like an amateur. I don't know if I buy the other island thing. Wouldn't they have noticed that?

Heroes continues to blow me away every week. Those "bio parents" were definitely not her real parents. Did you see how freaked out Claire's dad was with the "Save the Cheerleader. Save the World" message? And I never saw it coming. I never though for a second that pixie haircut girl was a bad guy! She was supposed to be helping. She shot the "exterminator" when he snuck into the prof's apartment! I just can't second guess this show ever. Love it!

Dancing with the Stars. Ok, it was Halloween and I didn't get to see most of the second dances. I was kind and let the boys tape a scary movie. Remind me not to do that again! Emmett continues to surprise me. Joey looked much better but still a bit robotic. Mario made me cry. Really. Tears. I love him when he is sexy and spunky but this new romantic side? Beautiful. Monique still bothers me with her "they're harder on me than on the guys" chip on her shoulder. Yes, she's good. But face it. It's harder if you're a girl in this competition. It wasn't a shock or surprise. I didn't see how she did in her second dance. I hated her first one. She didn't straighten her knees even one time and it looked like she was crouching through the whole thing.

Hopefully the results show will tape tonight while I am out without any glitches. My mom is babysitting tonight and doesn't know how to work anything electronic. Could be trouble.

Now I'm LOST

Wow! A great start for this season.

I didn't catch that the little town was the Other's camp right away. I wonder what the deal is with Henry/Ben and the blond. There's something odd there as he was excluded from their little book club. "I guess I'm no longer in the book club..." Hmmm. And what Stephen King book was she reading? Was it just important that it was a Stephen King book?

I loved the psych testing of the prisoners and how each was different. Jack was in some kind of room like an actual Psych test. Sawyer was in the bear cage performing for a reward. "It only took the bears 2 hours." Bwaahhahaha. But then again I wouldn't mind having Sawyer in a cage out back. Kate was all dressed up with no place to go and having breakfast with creepy Ben. That man has the most disturbing gaze ever. Please don't look at me!

Obviously, there are more questions than answers since it was the opening to the season. What does the aquarium/zoo setting tell us about the Others and the Dharma Initiative? Are they actually connected or did one come long after the other? Or was one the result of the other? The blond chick said something like "that was long, long ago." Don't trust her at all.

Next week looks promising. I think it's interesting that the Others didn't know about the boat. How would that be? If they were connected with the other sites and the experiments wouldn't they have been aware of that?

And why did Ben/Henry react so quickly and calmly to the plane crash? Why did they all just go into some kind of pre-planned routine?

Do Michael and Walt actually have coordinates that will get them home? Do they head home? Do they get there?

Anyone?

did I not post this week?

Don't panic. It isn't as if I haven't been watching TV. I have! I have! I have not been working, cleaning or being sporty, honest!

Gray's Anatomy: Oh hell yes! She get's both. Could there be a better answer? I mean besides them getting all covered in something slick and wrasslin' it out for us? Dating. What a great idea. Yay for this show. Yay for lots of fun watching them date and watching the men "compete." Yay, also for Burke's dad who not only manages somehow to put up with Burke's mom (yikes!) but also gives a subtle attagirl to Cristina.

Dances with the Stars: I know that Jerry is the weakest dancer, but let's face it...he has throngs of fans voting for him every week. He's not leaving easily. That said, Harry needed to go. I loved Lisa last season but Harry was just stiff and awful and had this damn chip on his shoulder. Ew--and he had some weird fake orange-y tan thing going on the completed the Ken action figure package. Yuck. So he's outta here, my rule breakers stay, and I am looking forward to this week.

Desperate Housewives: Stupid ass Bree. You get what you deserve this time. Could you please like someone that isn't f-ing psycho? Please? And Lynette? How I love you? Drinking and setting up Nora with Carlos was priceless. Carlos and Gabbie's baby was the best twist so far this season. I don't like Susan and her new whiny, clingy guy. I get it. Mike will wake up. There will be a triangle. Just pick Mike and be done with it. He's hot, he puts up with her crap. He can fix stuff with his shirt off around the house. Just pick Mike!

Brothers and Sisters: Still giving this a try. This week was a little slower as they established back stories but it was still good. We'll keep with it a bit longer.

Watched the catchup episode of Lost. The voice-over guy bugged the hell out of me but after watching I am very excited to see the season premiere. Can't wait!!

Oh, TiVo will be working overtime this week since the playoffs start and my Mets will be there!!
