Real Housewives of Beverly Hills - Premiere

I finally finished watching the season premiere of RHBH.  Ehhhh.  First they showed everyone getting together at Adrienne's house to discuss Russell's death.  I actually thought Adrienne looked pretty for once (did she lose weight? her face didn't look so horselike this time).  But then they started showing the parts before Russell's death - she still looks fug - must have just been good lighting.

I'm not sure why Adrienne was bickering with Paul at dinner.  At first I felt a little uncomfortable for Paul, but I act crazy like that with my husband too. In fact, I started to become angry at Mike for no reason just watching this.

All in all, this episode was pretty boring so I don't have much to say.  (Though at one point, while I was watching, my husband walked in the room and asked why that old lady (Lisa) had her saggy breasts hanging out).  This show just makes me wish I was rich so I could drink $2,200 bottles of champagne.  I love champagne!

At least the previews seemed interesting.

Now I'm going to say what everyone is thinking - damn you Russell!  You are so selfish!  This season would have been way more interesting with the Taylor/Russell storyline.  Now they probably won't show him at all.  Grrrr.


Update:  Apparently Adrienne got a nose job after the season filmed but before the meeting at her house.

True Blood - Soul of Fire

This is my first blog while actually watching a show. Let's see how this goes. Don’t read this if you haven’t seen Sunday’s episode.

The Witches and Vampires

These idiots trapped by Marni are so annoying.  I think it's because they are bad actors. At least Marni killed the annoying one.

I loved when the vampires said "fucking Sookie!"  Yes! Sookie can be so annoying.  But why is Eric so desperate for Sookie?  Old Eric was much better.  Both Bill and Eric want to kill themselves for Sookie?  Bill dying would be nice, but not Eric.  Also, why did Eric have to get rid of Pam?   I love Pam.  She always has the best lines.  This is all Sookie’s fault.

Eric redeemed himself by ripping that witch-lover guy’s heart out, knibbling on it and then licking his fingers.  Awesome.  Marni’s death was clearly not as remarkable. Bill can’t ever do anything right.

Of course, Jesus saved the day with his devil mask.  How ironic. 

Oh no. Oh no. Oh no. Marni is in Lafayette.  NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.  I guess I saw that one coming. Ugh, just when I thought the Marni storyline was done.

The Werewolves

Marcus is so gross.  He’s like the ugly, evil version of Kid Rock.  I wish they would just go back to showing Alcide.  I love angry Alcide.  Look at Alcide just seething in the background.  That’s right, you smack Debbie. Beat her! Beat her! Ugh why won’t he just beat her up?   What is he even saying?  I can’t understand a word.  I guess he just broke up with her. Good.

Andy Bellefleur

I like Andy Bellefleur but I wasn’t into the V storyline.  They already did a V addiction with Jason.  Hopefully he’s done with the V.  I don’t know where they are going with this fairy thing either.  Weird.

Mad Men - Season Four

Do any of you watch Mad Men?  I LOVE that show.  I have to admit, I didn't really enjoy the last season that much.  I always loved the dynamic between Don and Betty when they were married.  He always cheated on her and you were pissed that he did. Didn't he realize that he had a gorgeous wife and great kids at home?  Ok, not really. Betty is a cold hearted bitch (and apparently is one in real life) and Sally is pretty F'ed up in the head.  So you never really could root for Betty 100%, but Don was a pretty bad guy for cheating on her anyway.   Then Don and Betty get a divorce.  Whhhhhhhhhhhhhhy?  Betty has absolutely no role on the show now (I really hope she doesn't get written off the show).  Even though Betty was cold, you always thought, maybe she'll be nicer if Don stops cheating. She was even somewhat appealing when the two of them went to Italy.  Now she just sucks.

What's more,  for half the season Don stopped having affairs (or whatever you want to call them) with women.  Instead, he hired a hooker.  This is Don Draper, he doesn't need hookers!  Stupid writers.  Then Don started hooking up with Faye. Again, boring.  Now he's engaged to the receptionist. Blah blah blah. I want him to get back together with Betty!

Also, why did Sally get caught "touching herself" at that girl's house?  Isn't she 8?  Is that really possible? All I can say is I hope I don't mess my kid up like Betty did.

And why does everyone (in real life and tv) think that Joan is so awesome looking?  That woman has one of the fattest asses ever.

Hopefully next season will be better.

What do you think? Who's your favorite character?

The Norwegians are coming! - RHNJ

As I have mentioned in previous posts, Teresa is one of my favorite "characters" on the RHNJ.  But lately, I've been starting to dislike her.  She's kind of a bitch (hmm some people say I am too). But all of the other castmembers are completely and utterly boring, so I think I have to like her. Actually, I think I like her because we have something in common - a poor grasp of the English language.

Both of my parents were born in Italy.  My mom's English is perfect (probably better than mine), but English is my Dad's third language.  His English is still awesome, but he makes mistakes.  For example, he says "mices" "fishes" and "womens."  I think he does this on purpose because he knows it drives me crazy. Anyway, I blame my parents for my inability to speak proper English (while I'm at it, I think I'm going to blame them for my decision to become a lawyer).

Teresa also has immigrant parents.  Many times I've heard her say "ingrediences."  Okay, that's pretty bad. Even my parents don't say that.  WTF is wrong with her? Didn't she go to grade school? Why doesn't anyone correct her?

In one of my favorite scenes, Teresa started talking about the Nor'easter that was coming.  She said the Norwegians were coming!  This led me to realize that Teresa does not have a poor grasp of the English language, she's just a moron.

Game of Thrones - Season One

So did any of you watch Game of Thrones a couple of months ago?  I was a little late on the GOT bandwagon and started to watch it in June.  It was really hard to get into. The first few episodes were incredibly detailed and slightly boring (*gasp!*).  Nonetheless, I powered through them.  I'm only going to write about the few characters that I either loved or was perplexed by.  I'll address more in later posts. FYI to serious GOT watchers- spoilers are below.

What first caught my attention was when I saw Lysa breastfeeding her son, who is a young boy.  That's just disgusting, yet so intriguing! My favorite part was when he screams, "mommy I'm hungry!!!" and starts tugging at her shirt.  I really think George Martin has some mental issues that he needs to deal with.  Maybe I have mental issues too because I hope Robin, Lysa's son, continues to breastfeed in season two.  I could use a good laugh every now and then.

In the very first or second episode we are introduced to Cersei and Jamie Lannister.  They are the evil twins who have sex with each other.  Again, disgusting, yet intriguing!   We later find out that all of Cersei's children were fathered by Jamie.  How do these children not have four heads and ten arms?  Later on in the season, we see Cersei banging another Lannister.  What's wrong with her?  Nonetheless, while we all are supposed to hate Cersei, I love the actress who plays her!  She starred in the Sarah Connor Chronicles so how could I not love her?  (nerd alert)  As for Jamie, I know I'm supposed to hate him, but he hasn't really done anything so far that really makes me hate him (except for hurting Ned, who was one of the best characters on the show, besides little Arya). 

What did you think of the first season?

Milania Giudice - RHNJ

I used to really dislike Milania, Tree's daughter.  She looks just like her mother (ugly) and seems like such a brat.  But then she said something brilliant two weeks ago.   Juicy Joe was babbling about something and Milania was pissed so she said to her father, "shutup you old troll!"   Awesome!  When I was four, I never would have called anyone an old troll.  Maybe it is because my parents never said bad words in front of me, or maybe I wasn't that smart.  Nevertheless, I am going to call everyone and their mother an old troll (see True Blood post).

This past episode, Milania was at Corrado's (hey, that's where Dad shops!).  She was jumping in the food bins and making a mess (maybe Dad should stop going there).  Afterwards, Teresa praised Milania!   I think it's because she was being filmed and couldn't beat the shit out of her.  Clearly, Milania wears the pants in that family.   I wonder what she'll do next week.

Dexter

While I was writing this blog last night I had Weeds on in the background.  I have no idea what happened, it was that boring.  Anyway, at the end of the show, I saw a preview for Dexter!!!! I was so excited I almost peed in my pants (no not really)! I LOVE that show.  It is my favorite show on earth (besides Lost).  I wish I had come up with the idea of a serial killer who kills serial killers....brilliant!!  Then I started thinking about the actor who plays Dexter. He broke up with his wife/sister (who is super anorexic and very mannish) last year and there were rumors that he was hooking up with Julia Stiles.  Recently, I heard that that was not true and Dexter is really banging some staff member on the show. Thank god!  You know, Julia Stiles went to Columbia for a little while and I saw her on campus.  Just so you know, she's just as ugly in person as she is on TV.  Ok glad we cleared that up.

I can't wait for this show to start!
