Weekly Rewind (Nov 20-25)

Been a while since I've recapped my weekly viewings, and hey now it's got a title! Exciting isn't it?!?!? Sunday: NBC how you tortue me so, three weeks without a Crossing Jordan episode! Come on NBC, don't let me down like this again! But, with CJ's absence I have been able to view some great Masterpiece Theater on PBS. They did a two week stint over Elizabeth I. I really enjoyed Anne-Marie Duff and her portrayl of the Virgin Queen. BTW Alex, I've got it taped if you ever want to see it. You really should, its great. Even if you aren't into history like I am. Charmed - Hulkus Polkus wasn't exactly the greatest episode ever, but you get used to these half baked things when you watched this show. I'm glad Ivan Sergi has landed a season role as Henry, Paige's new love interest, but I still wish he was on CJ....back to the show. A strange virus is effecting all magical beings, and may wipe them all out. Phoebe no longer has faith in her premonitions, which doesn't help her reassure Billie about her own powers. The virus was created by the idiots at Homeland Security, and the Charmed Ones stop it, all in an hour's work. Sucks that Leo is going away next episode. Monday Surface- Ok, Laura and Rich are in the bottom of the ocean in that hunk of junk they call a sub, with the nice sea beasties at their breeding grounds. Not such a happy place to be, especially with oxygen levels lowering and Jackson supposedly dead. Seriously guys, once I learn a sub characters name, they die. What's with that?? If I ever figure out creepy government man's name and he dies I may call it quits. With out Nim, Miles' storylines don't have the oomph they once had. Good thing Nim showed up at the end, all though he may have some blood lust after kicking that mean fisherman's tail. And Savannah's actually getting a soul! Medium The 3-D episode, not so 3-D for me. Seriously, the glasses wouldn't work! I sat close to the tv, sat on the couch, farther back, I tilted my head certain ways...thankfully I was alone :) . Nevertheless, this was one of the better episodes of the season. I'm glad that Scanlon is getting more air time, he's a great character, he and Allison should get more scenes together. And did Davalous get re-elected? Or has that not happened yet? No matter, I know he'll win or we have no show! And I love little Bridgette, she'll grow up to be something one day. :) Tuesday Biggest Loser- Here we are, the final 4. Two I really like, two I can't stand. Matt wins the challenge, cocky little butt hole.... and Andrea is sent home!! One out of two ain't bad. Although I feel that Matt'll win the whole thing, Seth has a slight chance, but Matt used to live where he could lose and gain weight on a whim, and he's got that craft back. So early congrats Matt, I hate you. Gilmore Girls Chris is back, and he's Rich! o_O' yeah, Chris rich too good to be true, but it is! The only thing harder to believe is how easily this plan is for Chris to pay for Yale, and take Emily and Richard out of Rory's life. Emily ain't giving that up so easily. The Amazing Race Stupid Weavers are still here. You know, I rally hate how the TAR boards are going. There are too many people, and they all bicker constantly! And there are way too many games floating around...anywho. The Linzes finally got 1st!! Yes, and the Bransen's are still chugging along. If they finish 1st and 2nd I'll be a happy man, although the Bransen's presnece this far still eludes me, I feel their time has come next episode. Wednesday It SUCKS to be sick on holidays, really does. We ate Turkey, dressing and all the fixings Wednesday because the family was going to be gone the rest of the week. And me, mom, and dad are all sick with some awful bug, I'll spare you the ghastly details. I was really peed off when fatigue overcame me and I missed pretty much the whole episode of Invasion! Dave and Mariel were eating chili fires and the next thing I know the sun's shining through the window. Lost I was able to catch though. Got to get to know Ana-Lucia, didn't really care about that...I was glad to see Rose/Bernard and Jin/Sun to finally reunite! I've thought Rose should be a regular from the beginning, but a frequent recurring is nice too. And Sun is defiently my favorite female character, and one of my fav's on the show. I hope that the show starts to show the back stories a little less each ep, like they did with Ana-Lucia. They've been on the island over 50 days, I think its safe to keep a larger portion of the show focused on present day. Thursday Happy Thanksgiving everybody!! My sickness had pretty much subsided enough for me to enjoy the leftovers! That Dallas/Denver game was a bunch of crap. Survivor Cindy's finally getting some recognition, and Lydia calls out Steph. Gary calls out Judd, vice versa, people are dumb and Gary goes. Blast you Rafe/Cindy take out Judd and Steph. PLEASE!!! Friday Close to Home - We finally get more of Annabeth's home life, even if it is in danger. This ep wasn't as moving as i had expected, but it was a very well done one. I like the new Friday slot.
