Gossip Girl
Gossip Girl
My favorite couple is hooking up again, and I love it but I don't want this arrangement to last long. I personally think that these two just need a break from each other and i mean a serious break, like no contact for a while. They need to both grow up just a little bit. I would like to see DAIR happen this season.
Which brings me to my next topic, Serena in general, I can't stand her character anymore, I think it happened last season when she went off with Tripp, I thought she was going to redeem herself in my eyes when she finally got with Nate, but that fell apart when she wound up with Dan yet again. The Derena romance for me died in the second season when they got back together after her relationship with Aaron. And now it just seems gross to me they share a sibling, their parents are married, and they don't have the magic that they had in the first season anymore. Serena needs to stop jerking these two guys, Nate and Dan, around. Nate and Dan are my favorite friendship on the show and she is continuing to come between them. Serena just needs to be single for a while, and another thing what was the point of the teacher quitting his job to be with her if she was just going to dump him.
I am getting tired of this Juliet storyline and that sucks because I really love Katie Cassidy I wish they would explain what her brother's problem is with Serena. If I knew I would probably would be on her side maybe. I'm kinda excited about Juliet teaming up with Vanessa and Jenny to take down the Non-Judging Breakfast Club, As much as I love a bunch of them (All but Serena), I think they need to be taken down a notch or two, I get tired of seeing them on top all the time.
This show needs mixing up that is why I am rooting for JVJ alliance and DAIR, I need new dynamics.
Hawaii 5-0
It's as simple as I love Steve and Danno, they are why I tune in each week. I love their dynamic and you can see that their partnership has become more and more substantial.

Glee
I really enjoyed this episode, I thought the guys storyline about cooling off with images of Bieste was funny, but also the message that came at the end about the fact you may not think its personal but it is to that person. I wasn't crazy about the Will/Bieste kiss, but I can deal.
Now to the storyline that I enjoyed the most in this episode, the Kurt bullying. Kurt is my favorite character on the show, I think Chris Colfer is so talented and is playing Kurt so well. Last season Kurt was handling being the only out gay student at McKinley fairly well, and now the bullying is finally getting to him. HE is miserable and you can see it in the way that he reacts in this episode in the hallways. I am glad that in the upcoming episodes it is finally going to be addressed.
But lets get to the good stuff, aka Glee newcomer, Darren Criss as Blaine, The Dalton Warblers are like/ rockstars at their school and this seems enticing to Kurt. Of course they realize that he is a spy from McKinley and they think its endearing. Blaine realizes that he is upset and asks the other warblers to leave so he can have a word with Kurt. He tells Kurt about his experience at his old school and how he just ran away and came to Dalton. He tells Kurt he should stand up to this Bully you know confront him. With this first impression of this character and interviews with Darren, you get that he is just a cool laid-back guy who would be a great person for Kurt to have in his life. I am really hoping that they don't rush this relationship and since they are in talks to make him a series regular next season, I think there is plenty of time to make this a truly realistic and romantic courtship, yeah I said courtship. Kurt deserves to be happy.
I kinda saw the kiss with Karofsky coming but only as joke in my head. you know repressed feelings. The kiss reminded me of Buffy and the jock that turned out to be gay. But still Kurt's reaction of shock was totally founded and the fact that it upset him so much that Blaine ended up coming to McKinley to try and befriend Karofsky and tell him he is "Not Alone" (an AVPM reference) and then Karofsky just freaks out and then Kurt pushes him away and tells him to cut it out. Then Kurt confesses to Blaine that the kiss was his first real one. Aww, Poor Kurt!!!
The third storyline of the night was Puck and Artie. Let me be one of the first to say Welcome back, Mark Salling, I have missed your rugged good looks in the past two episodes. I enjoyed the Puck/Artie thing more towards the end of the episode when they were becoming friends for real, I realized in this episode for as much as Mr. Schue cares about the kids but he isn't there checking in with Puck's probation officer and the whole Kurt situation. I could really like their friendship.
Now Let's talk Musical Numbers
Teenage Dream---Amazing, Darren Criss I am in love with you and the Warblers. You guys will be serious competition for our New Directions I give it an A+.
One Love--- I love their voices thought the song's place in the episode was random. I give it a B.

Raising Hope
Again this show continues to impress me with its randomness and hilarity. I love everything about this show, Martha Plimpton is my favorite. I have loved her since I saw her in Parenthood. She is great as Jimmy's mom and you really do believe that her relationship with Burt is so loving and realistic. This show really speaks for the times that we are in. The joke about having insurance being a rich person thing was so funny and spot on, i mean my parents don't even have insurance for themselves. This show is so entertaining and everyone should watch this.
Parenthood
Favorite moment of the night was Adam punching that guy in the grocery store. And the strain that he is under and the anger he feels for the things he can't control such as Max's aspergers, his job, and taking care of Sarah when he shouldn't have to. Adam is my favorite character on the show, I have loved Peter Krause in both Six Feet Under and Dirty Sexy Money.
The next thing I loved about this episode is Hattie's job at the soup kitchen. I like the idea of her and soup kitchen guy (can't think of his name right now) and the fact that he told her he couldn't pursue a relationship with her because of the fact that he is a recovering alcoholic and he just knows that he isn't ready for this that he couldn't handle it.
As much as I love Lauren Graham, her character has been getting on my nerves lately. Maybe because I just want to see Lorelai on my screen again and that is all i see when i see her. But the character of Sarah is just annoying. She thinks that Adam is responsible for the fact that the shoe idea didn't work out and that he should do more to make it happen.
And finally Crosby, O how i love thee, I love the fact that he is growing up so much from the guy that we were introduced to in the first season. He has moved out of his boat and into an apartment for his family. Dax Sheppard you continue to impress me.

The Vampire Diaries
Nina Dobrev kicks ass!! I mean sometimes Elena annoys me, but her Katherine is awesome and badass. We got to see the two interact in this episode and it was great. Elena goes to Katherine after finding out that Klaus is going to be coming after her because she is the only one who can break the curse. It turns out Katherine had a baby out of wedlock and that is how the Petrova bloodline has been passed down. We learned that Katherine killed herself in order to become a vampire. and has been on the run ever since. and that she was going to turn in the group aka Elena, Caroline, and Mason plus the stone to Klaus so that she could stop running. So she's really not back only for Stefan. We also learned that Klaus killed her entire family just for revenge. But the thing is after Stefan shows up at the tomb and tells Elena that he will protect her
Stefan and Caroline, I adore your relationship, even if it just stays as a friendship. I totally see the fact that she reminds him of Lexi. I love that she wouldn't tell him where Elena was, because she is also Elena's friend and she told him she would not tell Stefan.
Let's move onto Jeremy and Bonnie. I love everything Jeremy does, Steven R. McQueen you do it for me. I would like to say that I cannot stand Bonnie and Jeremy is the only thing that may make her tolerable to me. I mean she is annoying and whiny and blames everything on vampires. She would've been a witch regardless it's not their fault. Well anyways Jeremy asks Bonnie to go and shoot some pool at the Mystic Grill, as they are walking to class they meet a Luka (Devon from Y&R) initially Bonnie is attracted to him then runs into him at the grill while waiting for Jeremy to show up, his dad asks if she as any relations in Salem, at that moment she freaks out and goes and plays pool with Jeremy. They are being all cute and flirty and I love when Jeremy smiles because it is so rare. Eventually Bonnie goes and gets something to drink and starts talking to Luka and learns that he is a warlock. Jeremy sees them talking and decides to leave. Poor Jeremy!!
And finally one of my favorite men on TV, Ian Somerhalder. After last weeks emotional roller-coaster and his goddamn man-tear, my love for you continues to grow. Well anyways Damon and Rose team up to learn more about this curse and how it can be broken. Rose immediately picks up on the fact that he is in love with Elena. They discuss turning off their emotions. When they get back to Salvatore Manor they get it on.
No Tyler or Matt this week makes me sad.
Fringe
This week took place "over here" and the mystery of the week was people were getting retrograde amnesia from listening on certain radio stations, called the number stations. Turns out these are coordinates for the pieces to that machine that Walternate wants to build and apparently they were built by the first people. Astrid figures this out.
Let's talk Altivia, we start by seeing Peter bring her breakfast in bed (gag me). Peter gets a call from Walter yelling at him about continuing to work on Walternate's experiment. I have thought for the past couple of episodes that Altivia is doing a pretty good job of convincing everyone that she is Olivia. But we are now starting to see how much she doesn't know about Olivia's life, like her hesitation when Peter asked her to relate the numbers back to him, you could see the fear in her eyes that everything would fall apart if she didn't get this right. By the end of the episode they have found a bigger piece to the Walternate puzzle. And Walter agrees to help Peter figure out exactly what this thing will do.
Cut Scene to our Olivia "Over There", she is getting out of the shower and getting ready to go Walternate's submersion tank, when she gets a call from the assistant guy who says that the experiment is canceled. MIND!Peter starts telling her that they have no more use for her that means that they will probably get rid of her.
Private Practice
The only storyline that I care about right now is Charlotte, and how she is dealing with her situation. Most of the episode everyone is walking on eggshells around her, and Charlotte being the strong woman that she is cannot stand it. She tells Addison to keep her mouth shut about what she told her, so throughout the Addison kind of tells Sam about what happened to Charlotte who then hints to Violet who figures it out. It turns out Violet was raped in college. At the end of the episode Violet goes and tells Charlotte that this happened to her too, that she wasn't just talking about when the crazy lady cut Lucas out of her. Violet tells her that she is their for her. After Violet leaves Charlotte destroys her office, then goes to Amelia and says that she needs to go to a meeting. While this is going on, Addison turns in the rape kit she did on Charlotte, Sheldon goes to the police station and says that he thinks he knows who Xander raped.

Smallville
This episode was okay, so let's start with Tess/Clark/Granny Goodness, episode starts out with Tess having a nightmare about being in an orphanage and trying to run away. Turns out that is where she grew up until she was adopted. Fighting ensues with GG trying to rid Clark of his memories and Mad Harriet being there as one of GG's girls. Eventually Clark gets away and saves Tess and tells her she's a member of his team. By the end we discover that Tess is actually Lutessa Luthor an illegitimate child of Lionel's.
Let's move on to the awesomeness that is Erica Durance, every episode I am reminded of just how awesome of a Lois she is. In this episode she is going through a box of things that her mother left her. A box she has never looked in, her mother left her videos saying goodbye and this triggers something in her to fix Clark's relationship with Jor-El. She goes to the fortress and confronts him saying Clark will never be the hero he can be if Jor-El doesn't believe in him, and that he and Lois can't really move forward in their lives until this is worked out. Eventually Clark realizes that Lois is at the Fortress, and when he saves her it triggers a playback of his parents last moments on Krypton. Back at the farm, Lois tells Clark that she accepts that she has moved in with him, and goes and puts the box of her mother's things away before they go to the Ace of Clubs for karaoke, i think. When Lois is putting the box away she picks up a card that says "for your wedding day" then she blushes and Clark notices. As they are heading out the door, Clark pulls a ring out of his pocket, and what a pretty ring it is. Can't Wait.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Supernatural
Monster of the Week: Skinwalkers
Sam and Dean are on the hunt for a new alpha to give to Crowley, apparently there is cases of people's hearts being ripped from their chests and the attacks look like they are done by an animal. Conclusion that they jump to is werewolves that aren't attacking during a full moon. But as we know from this season nothing is as it should be when it comes to monsters.
Dean is continuing to struggle with the fact that Sam isn't Sam. By the end of the episode Sam decides that he wants to be himself again.
