I had a mess of things to take care of this week, and it’s been a rough one, so that’s why these are coming so late. How I Met Your Mother It took all season, but Barney and Robin FINALLY got married! It also took all season for Robin to get cold feet and reconsider […]

Friday Mayors, Parent-Traps, Copycats, and Sunday Ceasefires and Kidnappings
Rake It seems like Kee’s lucky day: the mayor dies from auto-erotic asphyxiation, of all things, leaving his wife, aka Kee’s latest conquest, to cover things up so her husband isn’t remembered for his sexual habits. But, when Kee goes to brag about it to the mayor’s gopher, it looks like he may have opened […]
Monday Love-Hate, Green Beer, Twists and Brotherly Love
How I Met Your Mother This ep is pretty much all about Gary Blauman (Taran Killam, SNL) and whether the gang loves him or hates him. Lily and Billy love him, but Ted and Barney hate him. Ted hates him because he cockblocked him one night by getting into a Teddy Roosevelt convo with him […]
Tuesday Aussies, Ottawa, Carnivals, Thursday Parades and Water Guardians
New Girl 3/11 While it seems like a good idea at first to move all of Schmidt’s extra stuff into the storefront he had leased for Abby, when someone comes in thinking they’re an actual store and open for business, things get dicey. The guy breaks something and hurts himself, and decides to sue the […]
Monday Surprises, Manipulation, Cover-ups, Tuesday Maneaters, Vacations, Vasectomies
I think I’m going to have to go back to the post-a-day format instead of trying to lump two nights together at a time–the time just isn’t there to do such a big double post like that. Bear with me. How I Met Your Mother Robin catches up with her mother while Ted gets the […]
Friday Conspiracies, Escapes and Sunday Blackouts
Hawaii Five-0 Danny’s mom is still in town, and with few other options to keep her busy, Grover takes her out for a ride-along, and she gets to do a shooting simulation. Meanwhile, Five-0 has to call in Jerry, the conspiracy specialist (Jorge Garcia) to help investigate a Chinese satellite that is down. There’s a […]
Thursday Basements, Mystery, and Flip-floppers
Rake Kee takes on a client who knew him when he was in AA, and is surprised at what an impact he had on the guy (Anthony Anderson from last year’s Guys with Kids). Though Kee only went to get the attention of a girl, he managed to say some compelling things that made the […]
Monday Suit Racks, Divorces, Cults and Tuesday Kidnappings, Candidates
It’s been a rough week – stuff came up, bad weather struck again, the tendonitis is back, and just general exhaustion. Catching up as soon as I can. Here’s Monday and Tuesday first. How I Met Your Mother Lily tries to get Robin excited/sad that this is her wedding day, but she just can’t get […]
Tuesday Rent-Control, Wednesday Molly, Thursday Mitzvahs, Friday Guest Appearances!
Brooklyn Nine-Nine Jake’s building is going co-op, and short of a loan shark, he can’t come up with the money to buy his apartment. However, Gina may have a solution: she can buy it and rent it to him. I felt a little out of the loop on this one, because Jake and Gina apparently […]
Monday Cures, Hair and Pulp and Tuesday Hackers, Jedi Mind Tricks and Bars
How I Met Your Mother The gang tries to cure Barney’s hangover with his special hangover drink, but they have to figure out how to wake him up first to get the secret ingredient. The wedding pictures are soon, and while they consider running the “Weekend at Barney’s” play, Robin winds up canceling the photos. […]
