TV thoughts before another week goes by D:

Caught up with everything I missed last week, omg.
Brothers & Sisters: Roxy Olin looks too much like her parents to make me believe she's a completely unrelated to Holly or Ken.
I have no idea wtf Ryan is doing. Why is he all behind Ojai's back now? WHAT IS THIS.
"It's a Santa Claus thing from way back." lolol, I can just imagine little Kevin like, "MY WORLD, IT IS CRUSHED."
How I Met Your Mother: This show just makes up excuses for everyone to kiss everyone else, honestly. Just one big orgy.
"I get so confused." "That's because you're a woman!"
What happened to Marshall and Lily's pauses? Did they stop doing those too? I forget.
"She made pancake and bacon strip." Wow, she doesn't even make herself more than one bacon?
The Big Bang Theory: The whole B plot with Wolowitz and Raj, what even? I kept staring at the screen thinking, "Where is this going?" I love those two. I really do.
V: It was good! I am not entirely hooked but there's relationships forming and there's Morena and I can at least stomach it for the time being.
But Alan Tudyk, do not die and you can stay forever on this show! I honestly thought he'd been on Dollhouse more than IMDB says. So he has no steady job, huh? COME BE ON V! I APPROVE HIGHLY. Just... don't die immediately on screen again. I... don't think I could handle that.
Melrose Place: SYDNEY PICKED UP DAVID IN A CEMETARY. STAY CLASSY SYDNEY. Also, if she could stay dead. This isn't P.S. I Love You.
I hate that I know what's going on with the casting now because it makes certain scenes even more boring to watch now. I'm not sure if anyone cares about Riley and Jonah but this whole "drifitng apart" plot is boring. They were engaged from the pilot, watching them break up and make up isn't touching if we didn't see the whole relationship. Plus, Jenna Dewan (-Tatum? When did THAT happen) was only on for those two episodes so unnecessary relationship drama is unnecessary.
Modern Family: I love Cameron so much. Home films. And the look on Mitchell's face at the end, looooool. Cameron ≠ Claire.
I'm starting to warm up to Gloria too. I wasn't quite sure how to react to her character but after last week's, I think she's cool.
Supernatural: Okay, I need to do this in points.
1. The sitcom opening: When they fall on the floor after Dean spikes the ball- they switch places? IDK why I caught that or why it matters to me, but...
2. The motel room is the sitcom room just with "Supernatural" lighting/coloring.
3. "Oh no, those movies were terrible." DID YOU SEE NORTON'S HULK, MISSY? >:|
4. I see getting that laptop of his own has made Dean more web-savvy. He knows what Facebook is now.
5. a. Dr. Sexy MD: I LOVE that they used the Grey's-type of music.
b. I was hoping (beyond hope) that Dempsey would show up (c'mon, help out JDM and your Blonde co-star!) or at least JDM. Especially JDM because that "OMG DAD?" "No, I'm a ghost... of another man...who looks like your dad..." would've been perfect.
c. "This show has ghosts? Why?" LOOOOOOOL
d. Dr. Sexy himself (HAHA HEY WILCROFT) looks like scruffy!Jared. I'm going to leave that alone.
e. Does McDreamy actually wear cowboy boots or is that just something they made up? And lol, I really want to know if Sam and Dean are supposed to be a certain doctor. There's too many at Seattle Grace for me to pay attention to anymore. Although if the girl slapping Sam is Meredith, that means he's Mark? I'm paying too much attention to this.
f. I got so excited when they were operating because my mind went to Lost. SAM IS JACK, OBVIOUSLY.
6. Nutcracker: a. How does Dean not realize at first that he's shackled like that?
b. LOL I LOVE THIS SEGMENT A BIT TOO MUCH
c. Castiel being utterly random, but making sense at the end. Aww, it's your big brother being stupid again, isn't it, Cas.
d. "You've been missing for days." I'll leave the concern for Dean to the shippers, but didn't the Trickster say it was only for a day? So time does go faster in TVland. I KNEW IT. XD
e. "Mr. Trickster does not like pretty boy angels." O RLY. HAS HE LOOKED IN THE MIRROR LATELY?
7. HERPEXIA: I missed it the first time because I thought it was a commercial until Sam turned around and I was like, "Fuck, I missed that!" But I've seen it over and over since and I cannot. deal. One of three clips from this show that will always have a place on my iPod (other two being "Dead or Alive" and the entire The Rapture episode.)
8. Sitcom (which I'm calling Changing Channels for iPod purposes of the theme song): a. How does Castiel not know who the trickster is at this point? And he looks really hot with the duct tape over his mouth. D:
b. WHYYYYY DID HE SAY CELEBRITY DEATHMATCH. I MISS THAT SHOW. AND NOW I WISH THEY WENT THERE IN THIS EPISODE TOO. CLAY!FIGHT TO THE DEATH. :(((((((
9. CSI: a. LOL Dean and I are kindred souls on the sunglasses and procedurals. <333
b. "WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN" LOLOLOLOL
c. .gif city. I can't even.
10. Knight Rider: a. I thought the Impala was a girl. :( And then I thought it was Bobby's voice in the teaser, but LOLOLOL SAMPALA. Dean/Impala just got more complicated.
b. So... what would a honk equate to as a human...?
c. The Impala still has the red lights in the grill after Sam gets out. ;)
d. Ring of fire = Angel's devil trap, I guess. I's say it's everyone's trap but those flames aren't that high. A human could jump it.
e. I like how Dean hits the fire alarm when there's a puddle like two feet from where they were standing.
f. "I wish I was back on a TV show." *rim shot*
Supernatural: All brothers. All the time.
I hated the way it ended so abruptly. And as much as I love the Trickster I'm disappointed that he's Gabriel. I was expecting some Fabio-type crazy as Gabriel and I really love the history of Loki so to just... throw it all away bothers me. But it makes sense for Gabriel, if he's that distraught over all this fighting. Comedy comes from a very dark place, so of course Gabriel's going to make up an identity that works for him and lets him be happy and joyful in his own messed up way (he's got a hurt/comfort kink doesn't he?) without having to deal with his family's problems. And wow, he does have a lot in common with Dean.
And I don't know, I know it was a cast-away joke for the Dean on Chuck's book covers to look like Fabio but I can't shake the idea that it was done deliberately in some way. Maybe Michael looks like that? Just because Chuck is a prophet and I can't see how he had the image of Dean so horribly wrong.
I felt like I needed to add this...
IASIP: Was Charlie going off a prompter during that commercial for the "kitten mittons"? HOW DID HE READ IT.
"I wanna go first."
"Let me show you mine, and then you can go first."
"Then I would be going second."
This season isn't as depraved as the past seasons. I miss when they were doing harm to each other and not trying to get rich, although I get why this season is all about that, especially.
White Collar: I think I was spoiled by the pilot because this week was boring too. There were some cute parts, but overall I was pretty "meh." The ending was interesting though. Is she in NYC?
And I found episodes of Secret Girlfriend online so I caught up with that. I only wanted to see it for Sandra McCoy, but it's frat boy humor and completely random so I'm enjoying it. Plus, the female cast is completely made up of girls I've seen in other shows before so it's great for cracky crossover ideas.
