I forgot to mention Reign in the last post, but that’s in here. too! Surviving Jack I was a little surprised the ratings on this were so weak. I loved it! I’m game for Christopher Meloni in any case, couple him with Rachael Harris (Suits, Bad Words) and set the in the early nineties (’91, […]

Tuesday Futures, Undercover, Office Space and Explosives
New Girl This one was kind of sad. Jess and Nick get into a fight over a toy that he was supposed to put together for a party, and Jess starts talking about their future. They are on two completely different wavelengths when it comes to child-rearing and marriage. While it makes them sad to […]
Monday Vows, Solidarity, Choosers and Outsiders
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 […]
Tuesday Dentistry and Donuts
I thought I was done with the week, and then I remembered I hadn’t written up this week’s episodes of Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Growing Up Fisher! Brooklyn Nine-Nine Instead of admitting to his feelings for Amy, Jake has decided to reopen an eight-year-old cold case that was labeled unsolvable. While he and the sergeant are […]
Wednesday Dreams and Sailors, Thursday Suitors, and Friday Suspects and Beekeepers
Psych This was the episode I’ve been waiting for all season! Our good friend Bruce Campbell, a.k.a. Sam Axe from Burn Notice, finally did his guest appearance on Psych this week! Gus is doing therapy for insomnia and nightmares, and Bruce Campbell plays the dream interpreter and sleep psychologist. As Shawn and Gus search for […]
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 […]
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 […]
