Gossip Girl Season 4 Ep 17 : Empire Of The Son
Having to wait until April really sucks. I want the Dair kiss fallout now.
Dorota being suspicious because Blair was serene cracked me up. Just like Rufus's horror over the idea of Dan's secret friend being Blair.
So Serena you find out that the father of one of your oldest and closest friends was beat up on the say-so of your new boyfriend and just, what? Shrug it off and don't think to tell Nate or the Captain? Ugh. Also why on earth did Serena keep the affidavit? And in her underwear drawer of all places? Just in case you needed it? For what Serena? To hold over your mother's head the next time you were pissed?
I'm not too shocked to find out that Raina's mom was killed in that fire but I don't understand why Russel is hiding it from her. It's better for her to think her mom bailed instead of tragically died? He's the reverse Bart!
90210 Season 3 Ep 17: Blue Naomi
Hallelujah! The Emily saga is over! I also saw the set-up coming a mile away. I knew Liam wasn't stupid enough to blow off Emily's manshirt ploy.
As for Silver/Ade, how ridiculous. Silver already filmed herself having sex with Dixon and showed it to the school, is another naked picture of her really going to be worse?
I did like Naomi and Max. It's a very silly storyline, but I do think Naomi is the best character on the show, even if she seems to have confused flirting with starring in a porn movie. That was the only way I could explain her sexy school girl outfit in the library.
I can't even speak as to Snoop Dogg. I felt dirty just watching that sad excuse for a poorly product placed moment disguised as a plot point.
And lastly, Ivy. Aw. She's got a rough road ahead of her, I can tell.

Parks and Recreation Season 3 Ep 6 : Indianapolis
Was Dennis Feinstein's license place "SMELLS"? Awesome.
I really liked this episode. Ron was absolutely incredible. Although he had many award winning lines, his demands for "All the bacon and eggs you have" won me over.
I'm glad Andy and April gave the money back. (That was definitely April's intent too, right? Since they both came to a conclusion at the same time, I just heard Andy, and saw them dump the money in the jar.) I have no clue how she managed to get a gigantic plate of Pigs in a Blanket made for a party of 25, but well done.
I figured that the woman's razor and pink cap would belong to Chris, but did not see that break-up happening. At least we get to keep Ann in Pawnee a little longer.
Community Season 2 Ep 17 : Intro to Political Science
I about died during this episode. Some of my favorite lines:
Troy- "Do you just constantly have your own little side adventures?
Abed- " Yep."
Troy- "Yeah. Me too."
Britta-"Well I don't want to be that guy..."
" I don't care."
Shirley-"Well Pierce, we're glad to have to you back I'm assuming."
And I could go on so I'll stop while I'm ahead. Donald Glover's line delivery are getting ridiculous at this point, I mean how do you make every line you get funny? Giliian Jacob's too, I can't believe there was a time I didn't find her funny on this show. I love her now. Oh, and Magnitude's "POP! POP!", should have wore on me, but every time he did it I laughed harder and harder. Maybe it was because the audience did too. I loved this episode got to rewatch to catch some more.

The Vampire Diaries Season 2 Ep 16 : The House Guest
Loved this episode. Has there ever been a show where SO much happens in one hour?
I was hoping Matt would turn, but this is actually much more interesting. Poor Caroline. I am a Matt fan so I still have some hope that those crazy kids can work it out. I liked that Matt immediately remembered what Vicki had said in the hospital, it made me think that he had been ruminating about it at least a little bit, instead of just assuming she was super out of it when she said it.
Candice Accola's voice is awesome and that scene made me smile.
I'm relieved about who the deaths were- I was so afraid that either Matt or Jenna was going to die that it wasn't so bad when Jonas and Luka died instead (though it was sad). Though I wish Elena had started to fill Jenna in at the end- I thought when they were talking in the kitchen that that was going to be the moment where Elena began to come clean. Though, as she put it earlier in the episode, how do you tell someone something like that? I think the best way would be if she just gave Jenna her diary (which I don't know if she still writes in), because that would be the most comprehensive way for Jenna to find out. It worked pretty well with Jeremy, when he stole it, because that way he learned about everything "off-camera." I mean, there is WAY too much to explain at this point.
I'm very curious as to what Bonnie's role will be in this curse thing. I wonder what Jonas revealed to her. I have a feeling that he didn't tell Stefan everything.
Loved, loved, LOVED Damon telling Katherine to get out of his room. Way to grow a pair, Damon.
I am hoping that more doppelganger hijinks ensue when the show finally comes back from hiatus (seriously, April 7th? Boooo.) I love the "Is it Elena or Katherine" moment at the beginning of the episode- I genuinely had no idea which was which.

Modern Family Season 2 Ep 16 : Regrets Only
Who knew Ed O'Neill could sing?
A very good episode, with some great lines, and the sight of Mitchell leaning his head on Cam's shoulder during 'Harp Attack' made my heart melt.

The Game Season 4 Ep 6 : You Say Goodbye I Say Hello
Well I think the theme this season is Consequences and Repercussions. Every character this season is learning that and tonight's was Kelly Pitts turn.
Kelly learned a hard lesson that in wanting to be a celebrity everything comes at a price, and that price was in the form of having your 13 year old daughter posing half naked on the internet. I loved that the show is looking at how usually the kids of reality show stars are always toxic, and Brittany Daniel delivered in her scenes of grief, anger, and sadness over her realization that she's not really a great parent.With Brittany Daniel only signed on for half the season it looked as if we won't see her for a while, sucks cause they gave us a nice Jason Kelly scene at the end.
Malik also got some great advice in the form of his lovely rehab partner. He realized his part in his problems and ended up making up with TT in the end. Hope it lasts
Glee Season 2 Ep 14 : Blame It On The Alcohol
This was just pure entertainment all the way through.
And it was good to see Emma again. The adult storyline was meh, but it didn't want to make me tear my hair out.
Weepy drunk Santana = life made.
Heather was incredible on that Ke$ha number.
I guess they sort of left the bisexuality thing open-ended. Which works if they pull of next week well.
All in all, I was beyond entertained. Drunk Glee Kids are hilarious. I love that the episode was saying "Yes, drinking can be fun to a point...but don't over do it." So many "special" episodes only have negative things to say.

Gossip Girl Season 4 Ep 16 : While You Weren’t Sleeping
Dair continue to be the only reason to watch. Love, love, love that last scene. I let out an audible "awww!" at Blair falling asleep on Dan's shoulder. (And talk about being practically on his lap!)
I'm going to mentally block Blair saying she tried to speed up her powerful woman process so that she could get back to Chuck. The dope isn't worth your time, Blair! Get over him! He obviously doesn't get a rat's ass about you!
The whole BI plot continues to be boring. I was so excited when Lily slapped Chuck and said she no longer supported him after the way he treated her last week, and was inflated and not surprised but still horrified that it was a fake-out.
I'll join the let's kill Chuck off petition! He doesn't add anything to the plot nowadays and even his outfits are boring (or are too bizarre to like) these days.
