Modern Family

I love this show!   The season premiere was AWESOME!  I couldn't stop laughing at everything Mitchell and Cam did.  Cam is my favorite character.  I wish he was in my family.

This week's episode was not nearly as good.  First, while I love dogs and I love when they are on TV, I just didn't think Jay's dog storyline was that funny.  Second, I was really creeped out seeing Jay in the shower. GROSS.  He has old man skin and man boobs.  For the first time, it made me doubt the real possibility of his relationship with Gloria. Gloria is way too hot for old man Jay here.  Oh well. 

The Cam/Mitchell juice cleanse storyline had potential but the writers just didn't go far enough  The funniest part was watching Cam rip the cabinet off.  After that, it was just painful - especially the scene at Mitchell's boss's house.  Mitchell running into the ocean? Really?  I wish they had done something else.

My second favorite character is Luke. Like Britney on Glee, Luke's lack of intelligence really makes this show.  Unfortunately, he didn't get many funny lines.  You almost want to laugh about the candy incident, but the writers just didn't take it far enough.

All in all, I can't hate on one of my fav shows that much. It still had some great lines.

Glee

What's up with all this musical theater stuff on Glee?  I'm sure there's an audience for this, but I was really hoping for less of that this episode.  Rachel's number was really good, and while Kurts was good, I was not into it.  He's starting to annoy me - so much so that I was secretly happy when Beast said he wouldn't make a good Tony.  A little less when they laughed at him. (but still happy)  Did anyone see the white boots Kurt was wearing? (ha ha ha)  I hope Blaine gets the Tony part and then he and Kurt fight about it. (muahahaha)

I love Britney's idea about unicorns.  LOVE. I can't wait to hear the stupidities come out of her mouth during her debate with Kurt.

Too bad skank Quinn is gone. Couldn't she have kept her pink hair?

The Playboy Club

This episode was decent, though not as good as the first episode. Not much really happened.   Why is the lead character so stupid?  Throw out that key you idiot!  Why did she keep the bloody costume? Stupid stupid stupid!  She even has a stupid look on her face the whole time.

Alot of tv shows and movies portray gay men in this era, but never lesbians.  Is this the first show to portray a lesbian in this era?  What took so long?

One final thought/question for the night, why is Eddie Cibrian married to LeAnn Rimes (yuck)?

New Shows - Part II

Revenge   The previews for this show actually seemed somewhat interesting to me, so I decided to give it a try.  All in all, I am undecided on whether or not this show is a keeper.  I'm going to have to watch the second episode to decide.  We already know the ending of (perhaps) the season - that dude dies.  So for a while we are going to see the background of how the main character seeks revenge. I was hoping that it would play out in one episode, but it looks like it will take more than one episode now, if not the whole season. That's a little disappointing. Also, why is Serena Van der Woodsen's brother on this show? Shouldn't he be busy on Gossip Girl?

Pan Am I am even less inclined to watch this show.  The first half hour was so slow and painful!  As I have said before, all of the networks decided to try and cash in on the Mad Men crazy, but they didn't really do a good job weeding out the somewhat mediocre ones. I do like the idea of having a secret agent stewardess so maybe this show has some promise.  Maybe someone from the CIA will randomly find me and decide that I would make a great secret agent too!  One can only hope.

Charlie's Angels Wow, this show was awful.  I only watched it because the Grey's Anatomy chick was in it, and because I could.  The acting was just terrible.  I'll give it another week because I like these type of shows, but that's it.
