Crapload of Shows, Part 2

I believe that is the correct unit of shows, right? :)

Yeah, there's just been too much good stuff on lately to pass up. Althoug more than one person needs to comment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everybody tells me how much they like it, but then they DON'T COMMENT!! At least anonymous is dedicated...

Anyhoodles, here's all the stuff I've been watching in the order that I remembered it...I'm so scientific...

Dancing With the Stars~

Oh, the joy. Stacy with the legs up to here didn't win. In fact, she came in third! Behind the football player guy who seems to be famous but I've never heard of! See, women do not appreciate that!!!! And we like Drew Lachey---the Lachey family needs something now, I guess. Although if I was his massively pregnant wife sitting on the sideline watching him grind on that stick insect, well, let's just say that they would never find her body. Or maybe just teeny, tiny pieces of it. Teeny. Tiny.

Olympic Closing Ceremony~

Oh, the sadness. The Olympics are over. I realized that I'll be graduating from college the next time the winter games are on. And then I started to get freaked out. A lot.

The closing ceremony was pretty artsy and weird and I totally didn't get that whole ice fishing thing. And Ricky Martin??? What??? I mean, Andrea Bocelli was awesome, and I could kind of see where they were going with Avril Lavigne with her being Canadian and all, but Ricky Martin??? That's so not right. Neither were the fishnets the backup dancers were wearing. A prostitute somewhere is going, "Oh, that's tacky..."

And I thought they said that the mayor of Vancouver was a quadropalegic??? When he moved his arms it go significantly less interesting...

Grey's Anatomy~

Oh, the promiscuity. Anybody else really hate Meredith Grey??? Anybody??? Especially after she broke George's heart and then started hanging out with McDreamy again??? Who has just reconciled with his wife, who is now stricken with poison oak where no woman wants to have poison oak...

Anyhoodles, this week on The Brilliant and the Horny, George does voice-over duties for Meredith, who is presumably off being moody and strange. (Ellen Pompeo is also, by the way, the worst cryer ever. Seriously.) Alex and Izzy are being all weird and self absorbed and I'm not entirely sure what happened to Cristina because she's apparently stopped being a focal point and is now just shacking up with her boss. Which is okay in her case, but clearly not in Merediths??? I'm very confused.

And somebody seriously needs to give Chandra Wilson a Golden Globe or Emmy or something. That woman is so funny. The scenes with her and Addison in the exam room were absolutely hilarious. I'm so back into this show.

Cold Case~

Oh, the procedural crime drama. Now, I'm sure that this is a fine show, and I'll probably watch again, but this week's was about a lonely thirty-year-old who lives with her mom and likes to read instead of going out. And when she finally gets asked out, dude kills her. I was feeling nauseous eight minutes in. That's so me. Anyhoodles, this does seem like a good show. My pitiful life aside.

The Apprentice~

Oh, the self-absorption. I'd forgotton how much fun this show is to watch and laugh at, because it's always been up against CSI and that creates a Big Issue in my house. But they are so funny---business people who are so into themselves are a hoot. And you know how they touted this as so "international"??? Yeah. I counted two. One Briton and one Russian. Who the Donald was repeated referring to as "the Russian". I didn't thinkt hat was very nice.

And I love how nauseatingly loquacious they are...when you ask a normal person what the name of your company should be, they probably give you the answer. They don't spend ten minutes g0ing, "Okay, I'll tell you what I think. And then you can respond, okay? I think this is a good plan..."

And I was totally rooting for the lone unattractive guy there, but he's just annoying now. They can can his ass for all I care. Just make him shut the hell up.

CSI:Miami~

Oh, the best of them all. Nobody does crime drama like CSI. Just a brief rundown of this episode, because my fingers are tired and it's number 4 in the ratings- it doesn't need me. Delko's still a manwhore, Alexx left for like five minutes and then came back, Ryan may or may not be blind, but he certainly is using his supposed affliction to draw out the mole, who is totally Natalia, and Ryan and Calleigh were totally flirting at the end. It was disgusting.

And Colleen and I figured out the story twenty minutes in. I feel so smart.

Crapload of Shows

First- Supernanny is coming back next Monday. Yay---craziness...

I didn't have a whole lot of time on Thursday or Friday, so I had like three hours of shows to watch today. Luckily, I have no life and this did not pose a problem. :p

Anyhoodles, I'm totally in love with Numbers. It's really good!!! Even with all that math crap. And it gives me something to watch on Friday. Although tha main girl's accent is getting a little annoying. It's like New York meets Canada meets southern California...scary. This week's was a very confusing military story that I totally didn't understand but enjoyed anyway. And the two brothers are fighting over this girl that they used to know in high school and is now inexplicably getting married in their backyard. That was the same girl who played the DA in Miami that they brought in last season to make Horatio nervous for a few episodes before realizing that nobody cares about what CSIs do after they go home.

As if I didn't have enough shows to watch on Wednesday (new Lost and CSI:NY this week!!!!!!! I'm literally dying of happiness...), I am now completely addicted to Criminal Minds, which I cannot believe is not a Jerry Bruckheimer show because of how much I love it. And we all know how much I love pretty much anything he does. Except the accents confused me a bit (maybe anonymous can help)- were they like on location or something, because everybody they talked to had a really annoying southern accent, and then all the FBI guys or whatever sounded perfectly normal. And then I started thinking- when was the last time there was a main character on a TV drama with a southern accent??? I can't think of one.

CSI was the repeat of that awesome episode with the "missing" little boy and the two sets of parents---absolutely unbelievably good. I am now totally into Vegas.

Without a Trace was repeat, but I just started watching that show so I've never seen it. Jack and some guy I don't know (I only know Jack because he played Daphne's brother Simon on Frasier...so funny...everytime I see him I think of him playing drunk and with an accent...actually undermines the credibility of the show a little bit...) are in Mexico helping this woman who we all knew two minutes in was guilty of something because she was being such a bitch about getting help. Because if I was in trouble in Mexico you can bet your ass that I'd be fully exercising every single one of my rights as a US citizen. But it was really good-I'm glad Rosa didn't have anything to do with it, because she just seemed very nice. And at the end when the guy goes, "What happens in Mexico stays in Mexico," I was like, "Yeah! Lock her ass up!!!!" Ahem, sorry. Got a little carried away, there.

The other thing I've been watching pretty much all the time because it's the only thing that won't offend the Boy or my mom (generally there aren't gay jokes or naked people- although did you see that Ukrainian's costume????) in primetime. And I have to say, it's been very interesting. Sasha Cohen and Irina Slutskaya both fell flat on their behinds within minutes of each other, paving the way for a less-polished skater from Japan. Who looked like somebody punched her when she won. Kind of cute. And I don't know, I just don't like Sasha Cohen. Somebody else on the web said she looked like of like that popular pretty girl that you went to high school with and was never very nice. That could be completely wrong, but I just didn't warm to her.

And we got another Russian sob story, except this one was without subtitles. Although they needed them, because Irina has one hell of an accent let me tell you. This time it was that mom is having kidney failure and Irina has to skate through the pain. Awww...I am such an emotional pushover. I actually wanted her to win after that.

And did you know that Johnny Weir went to practice wearing an old USSR jacket??? The Ukrainians and Lithuanians were probably standing backstage going, "Hey!!! That's not nice!!!", while the Russians were just like, "Eh, the good old days. We thought they'd never end. Remember when we put men the womens swimming races, and nobody noticed! Good times..." (Okay, I stole the swimmer thing from Imladris, but this time I'm giving her credit, so she can't get mad.)

Whew, I'm tired. And nothing is on tonight, except for Forrest Gump, which isn't exactly bloggable, so I'll put something up maybe on Monday, as I most certainly will be watching Grey's Anatomy.

CSI:NY- Innocent Dolls and Sordid Secrets

Is there anything as creepy as a doll??? I don't think so. Really. Think of something really freaky. Ten bucks its a clown or a doll. Even though I was an avid doll fan (I had Baby Alive, and I was just amazed by the fact that she wet herself. I was an easy to please child...) when I was little, I kind of shrieked a little when I first saw the commercial for this episode.

Basically, there's a dead guy, who is a little bit too into his job as a doll "doctor". Like he makes his assistant/secretary dress up like a nurse.

(I'd just like to applaud CSI right here for not turning this into a bondage/fantasy/something else weird substory like I would have expected. Frankly, I was surprised. And a little relieved.)

Anyway, I'm confused because I'm trying to figure out how this guy died. He's obviously dead, but the only thing I can see is that his finger is cut. Which, I guess when you cut the radial artery in the finger, that'll do it. But it took me awhile to figure out. But the main thing is that Dead Guy is clutching a doll in his hand. I'm still confused about this- it seems like the scientific analysis is that it was a post-mortem muscle spasm, but then everybody was talking about how he was just holding on tight.

Oh, and I'd just like to beg the writers to give Mac something better to say before the song. "Something about this little doll was worth dying for"???? Come on. That doesn't really even mean anything. If it were a real crime scene, they'd assume that Dead Guy was using the little doll to beat off the attacker with. Sheesh.

But we're not done with the doll- oh no. After tearing her apart to make sure she wasn't a drug mule (because six-year-old girls traffic in coke a whole lot) Lindsay in her infinate country-girl wisdom finds out that Sophie has a secret. And, being CSI, you know it's gonna be sordid.

And it is.

We know this, because they keep replaying it, over and over and over again. It's like the writers got pissed off at censors and were like, "This is the only sex thing you'll let us have? Okay, we're going to put it in here like twenty times for absolutely no reason!!!!" So Mac and Lindsay listen to this thing, and then Mac goes, "It sounds like she found someone in a compromising position."

No way. What would we do without him? See, this is why he has the corner office.

So they trace the doll back to a woman who looks like Amy Poehler, and her adorable and yet slightly creepy daughter. Whom Lindsay almost beat up when she refused to tell her what the message that the doll help meant.

Anyhoodles, they wrap this up pretty well with Amy Poehler sleeping with a student, and all the adult CSIs look righeously outraged, even Lindsay who looks like she graduated from high school last spring.

The other story line was pretty boring. Stella and Hawkes were investigating the death of a young woman with cancer who was being poisoned. Talk about your bad day, huh??? Turns out the neighbor killed her so he could get his hands on her apartment and build a nursery. Yeah, that totally makes sense. I really want a car, so I think I'm going to kill the next person who drives down my road and take it. Really, they need some new motives on this show....

Next weeks it new, so we're thrilled to death about that. Look for another Olympic thing later tonight or tomorrow- I want to do a figure skating thing. If you want to know who won, check out NBC's Olympic site. Total spoilers, though. Be warned.

Live Blogging the Evening's Viewing

The only chair that isn't taken is the one by the computor. And I'm bored. Thus, ridiculously long post. Deal with it. Tonight is pretty much American Idol, I think. It's the guys, who always think that rock or country is a good way to go. I want pop, damnnit. No Olympic drama tonight- the carnage that is ice dancing is completely over, and Chad Hendricks and Shauni Davis aren't around to bitch-slap each other anymore, so it's barely worth it, right?? Anyhoodles, I'm bored, so here goes...

7:39- Oh, the evening is off to a bad start. A boy who is way too pretty and way too young is doing a Jackson 5 song. Why do peole insist upon loving that molestor???

7:40- Randy just told him he was perfect, and that he loves him, which is pretty much how he has responded to everybody this season. I think he failed gastic bypass has helped him become more loving.

7:42- Simon needs to realize that he has man boobs. And dress accordingly.

7:44- Ha! Somebody doing Cher. Hehehe

7:50- HAHAHAHAHA- the monkey commercial with the laser pointers!!! That kills me!!!!!

(nine billion years later)

7:57- What do you know. Still country.

8:01- GAH!!!!!!!!!! Switched over to Lost and found a bloody Jack in a suit!!! Going to go pour cold water on my head. They're replaying the pilot, the five people in this country who steadfastly refuse to watch it should go get acquainted with it- NOW!!!!

8:02- I'm freakin' serious.

8:05- Jack just jumped on top of Claire to protect her from a random blast. We now hate Claire.

8:08-Imladris just said that this is like seeing baby pictures of her best friends. Except she doesn't know any of them. Where did Jack's tie go, do you think??? And why doesn't wear that suit more often?

8:10- KATE!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's their first meeting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8:12- SEPTIC SAWYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not being outacted by his hair, ironically...

8:12:30-SAYID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, this is totally like baby pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8:20- Oooh, low growl. Really, they need to decide on a monster. There's the "low growl" thing, the black smoke, the Others, that thing that sucked the pilot out of the plane, and what happened to the polar bears???? Am I the only one who doesn't know what happened to the polar bears???

Okay, so the funness of seeing all my little castaways for the very first time is wearing off. Now they're just getting tedious. And I have to stop watching in twenty minutes anyways because CSI:NY comes on and there is nothing I wouldn't do for my CSI's...including miss the last half of teh Lost pilot. Well, really because I've seen it before. If I hadn't, we'd be having an emotional breakdown right now and perhaps dragging another TV in to watch simultaneously. Yeah, that would totally work. So cheerio (been watching Monty Python, too...) my little readers. I'll put something up tomorrow, k??? :)

Numbers

Okay, so in an effort to expand my viewing parameters and also find something to watch during the wasteland that is Friday night TV (and for those of us without lives, this is a fairly important goal) I watched Numbers last night. Or, as all the little CBS ads proclaim "NUMB3RS" as if sticking a "3" in there instead of an "E" makes it so much more cool.

First, I'd like to say that was prettiest group of mathematicians that I've ever seen. In fact, one of the prettier groups of people in general that I've seen.

I kind of know the jist of the story because CBS promotes this thing like nothing else- seriously, if you'd put a couple thousand more advertising into CSI:NY, maybe it would make it into the top 10 more often. I'm just saying... So there are two brothers, one is some sort of FBI guy and the other is Barney the Head Elf...no, wait, that was the Santa Clause movies...he's a mathematician with an incredible budget for hair product in this one. And he helps his brother solve crimes. Oh, and there's a girl for no reason at all. Except to be preternaturally pretty. Which seems to be the function of most girls on CBS dramas.

At first there was just too much math. I'm not even completely clear on what an algorithem is much less really interested in it's crime-solving capablilities. I decided that now was a good time to clean my room and fold laundry. And no show should ever do that. But then it actually got kind of interesting, and the really confusing algorithem was used to find a killer who was doing things with cell phones that I don't understand. Frankly, I just figured out voicemail. That was an accomplishment. When I try to send a picture it's still hit or miss. But the show was interesting.

And this episode has Colin Hanks as a guest star- a rival mathematician. I've decided to marry him. First, think of the money and connections. Second, he's really cute. He got like all the good parts from his dad (no, I don't think Tom Hanks is hot) and presumably some good parts from his mom, because he could totally do that geek thing. Although his presence couldn't save King Kong.

So in general a good show. As long as it's not up against anything else, I think I'll keep watching.

Lost and Will & Grace and Stacy Should Die

Yes, I know they're on different nights. But I don't have that much to say about any of them, so I thought I'd combine them, k???
Dancing With the Stars

That skinny bitch with legs up to her armpits must die. Seriously. Soon.

Lost

Here's my list of things to do to make this show better. Not artistically, because I still love it, but some things are starting to bug me.

1.) Kill Locke.

2.) Tell Jack that when forming an army maybe the former army officer is a better person to go
to, rather than one of LA's not-so-finest. Because really, Sayid has nothing to do.

3.) Have Mr. Eko join with the REAL castaways, and then have the whole back half of the island fall off. Now that Guy Who Kinda Looks Like Sean Bean is dead, none of the tailies are worth it.

4.) Kill the next person who tries to push those damn buttons. Wake up, people, it's an experiment.

5.) Cut Sawyer's hair.

6.) Tell Jack that Ana Lucia is a raving lunatic and maybe has an STD (I don't know that she does, but with those shirts I wouldn't be suprised) so that he'll stay far, far away from her.

7.) Maybe try going exploring during the day. When you won't end up having torch-lit ceremonies in the middle of the jungle while a hairy guy holds Kate captive.

8.) Have Mr. Eko (who really should be Fr. Eko, don't you think???) set up a little chapel, ala that chaplain on M*A*S*H*. That would be fun.

9.) Somebody slap Claire and tell her that her kid isn't the antichrist (although I'll admit that there were some pretty strong parallels to the whole flight to Egypt thing last week...)

10.) Seriously. Somebody killy Locke. Soon.

Will & Grace

Oh. My. Gosh. Grace is preggers. I totally knew it the minute that she got sick. Nobody gets sick and talks about it on TV unless they're dying or pregnant. And as we're getting down to the last couple of episodes, I figured they weren't goinng to kill her. Although we won't get to see the baby- ever. *tear* How sad is that????

And does anybody else a little bit creeped out by Will and Taye Diggs??? Anybody??? I know I am. And I really, really hope that the series doesn't end with Jack and Will together. I really don't. That would be so weird. *shivers*

That's pretty much all I have for you until I watch CSI and Without a Trace, k???

Tuesdays on FOX

Or the one night of the week that FOX actually has a fighting chance against the rest of the world. Not a big chance, because I know there's one of the Law and Order's on NBC, but at least something.

(Boston Legal was also new, but I didn't get a chance to watch it- somehow, watching Michael J. Fox die of cancer wasn't how my mother wanted to spend the evening. I taped it, and will probably have something up later on. That show is really hard to write about, though, because it's so funny!)

So the evening started off with American Idol. I'm not and Idol freak. I usually watch the last show when they pick a winner, and that's about it. I wasn't even sure who the finalists were last year. But I do love the auditions. They're so unbelievably bad and awesome, and I can't stop watching them. Especially now that it's been so many years. The first time, I was like, "Oh, they're being mean to the poor people!" but now it's like, "Yeah, you come in looking like an even gayer Clay Aiken, you're probably not getting through." And now they're over. *tear*

But the beginning part in Hollywood is fun, too, because they stick everybody in these groups and there's all this drama and crap and it's almost as good as seeing the sucky singers. But once it gets tot he live shows, well, that's just not any fun any more. B00.

Last night Simon told some guy who sang like Cher to become a drag queen (which seems to be his standard retort this year) and this guy like went crazy and started yelling about Judy Garland. I didn't understand him, but it was pretty awesome to watch!!!

The second viewing of the evening was House, which was equally as awesome when he wasn't being adulterous with Stacy. And then dumping her. And showing us how old Sela Ward looks when she's trying not to cry.

The best line of the night, when talking about an ill mother's use of Ritalin "It explains how she can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan, and never, ever let Teddy forget that he's a man." HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. That was awesome.

Kinda weird to see Wilson being all, "Respect your marriage vows, man" because we all know Wilson is a cheating manwhore.

And how cute was Dakota Fanning's little sister??? So cute!!!! Pretty good actress, too.

Tonight should be pretty good. It would be awesome, except that the Grammy's pre-emp CSI:NY. Bugger. But Lost is on. And how awesome does CSI: Regular look on Thursday??? So watching!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CSI:Miami-Stupid Whore Files

What the hell is wrong with every single attractive woman on all of the CSIs??? Hmmm??? Are they all morons????

Last night we got a beauty with Jennifer, aka the girl that was locked in the closet while Walter Resden killed her parents. Well, she's all grown up now (as another episode a couple of months ago attested to) and guess who she's dating???

Anyone with a brain would say, "Um...any guy but Resden?" And they would be wrong.

Because Jennifer is just another example of a stupid girl who gives young women a bad name. Trust me, not every nineteen-year-old would go out with a balding guy in his forties who was a suspect in her parent's murder- that they met on the internet. And believe me, I know a lot of REALLY STUPID nineteen-year-olds. Gotta say, Jennifer puts them all to shame, though. Right up there with the woman from NY last year who decided cutting through Central Park at night all alone wearing a black lace dress was a good idea.

Anyhoodles, this was a particularly awesome episode. Natalia's late...for a very important date (hahaha...sorry, bad pun.) And Delko is unnerved by the idea of impending fatherhood, instead turning his attention to a girls volleyball team just to put the weekly kink factor in there. And then wen Natalia finds out that she's not preggers (by the way, how sorry would we feel for that kid??? Baby Girl Boa Vista-Delko???), Delko is unsure of the proper etiquette for congratulating/comforting the narrowly avoided mother of his child. It's actually kind of funny.

And Resden's back, but this time they get him. He actually kind of freaked me out, because he looks just like my biology professor last year. Except that I'm fairly certain that he wasn't an abused serial killer. Pretty sure. And Horatio stares down another guy who is twice his size. What is it about a skinny dude with red hair who wears sunglasses INSIDE that people find so fear-inducing??? I'm pretty sure I could stare him down.

But a really good episode. Again, there was no urge to "Stay tuned for scenes from our next episode", which greatly upset me. Bugger.

House and Boston Legal are new tonight, and Lost is new tomorrow, so expect more stuff up soon!!!

CSI:NY- A Plethora of Revelations

Actually, I don't know what the term is for a bunch of revelations. But I like saying "plethora". It sounds okay, right??? Just a quick:

Side Note: I am a sucky blogger. I know that. But Lupé is back in the work-study program and has a ton of stuff to do, especially during her breaks. And now with three universities practically banging down my door and throwing schoarships at me (somehow, never enough though...) she has to think as well. I've watched a ton of great TV (last night's CSI) and a ton of sucky TV (Dancing/Skating with the stars/celebrities). I'm going to try to post more often. Promise!!!

Anyhoodles, CSI:NY has been new the last couple of weeks, which is awesome, but it's not going to be new next week. BOOOO!!!!!! *ahem* Moving on...This week we were treated to multiple character developments, some good, some bad, and some that made Imladris and I consider whether Anna Belknap ever saw that People's Sexiest Man Alive issue with Danny in a tank top. *shivers*

The first revelation of the evening came as Stella was at a party in a characteristically slutty (but rather pretty) dress staring at "art" of a naked woman (which she felt the need to explain to Mac later on in the show. I think this was unnecessary. I dont' think they let you graduate from CSI school without being able to recognize that, do you???). I say "art" because this really wasn't. I don't have a problem with nudes in art. They're great. All the good ones did it. This wasn't art.

So this guy comes up and gives her a drink and it turns out it's the elusive Frankie!!!! (Okay, I have to admit. I was on the phone with my grandfather at this point, and my conversation may have been slightly fractured as inside I was going "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!" and then Imladris ran out of the den and actually did scream "Oh my gosh!!!!". Sorry Grandpa.) But I was happy that they didn't decide to throw out the Frankie story-line, because they really do need some romantic intrigue on that show. Apparently Danny's girlfriend has fizzled, too, because he was hitting on that subway girl last week, and other than the unseen Roller-Derby fan that Mac went out with, he doesn't have a relationship.

S0 they're flirting and then we go up to the roof and a couple doing things against a wall (this is CSI people, remember that...) are shot through with a bow and arrow. Of course, Stella is the consumate CSI and pulls herself away from Frankie and his charms and calls in the rest of the little CSI team. Who rush out and discover that the guy is still alive and the girl is dead. Of course. Because why would you kill a guy when you can instead have an entire hour of shots of a woman in her underwear without the censors all over your ass??? This storyline continues for a long time and I get a little bit bored, and I think the CSI's do too, because with the exception of getting to play with a new weapon, they look a little bit tired.

And Danny and Lindsay found a dead guy with glue on his face. And a suspicious, rude manager for a rock group next door called the Rough Sects. Another way to avoid the censors. Say it out loud and you'll get it. This story line was very unimportant except that it gave us the revelation that Danny has a creepy laugh. Seriously creepy. I was like, "What the hell was that???"

But Montana is showing up an awful lot on the other case, probably because Hawkes revelation is that he is now embracing his inner GQ boy and strutting around in big overwear, sunglasses, and hugely annoying pouty lips. I don't know why, but he just is. So Lindsay, who I always kind of liked because she was completely devoid of sexual energy, hangs out with the A cast and gets to shoot the bow and arrow and consequently Mac helps her out with a guitar, and they got very close to flirting.

*gasp* I am outraged. At least Aiden was only into Danny (who totally deserved her...)

Continuing on with the real story, turns out Injured Guy was a manwhore and a jealous ex-boyfriend of a fling shot them. Big whup. I'm mainly concerned with Why Hawkes is strutting around the lab like a frickin' peacock, Stella is acting like a twelve-year-old and taking personal calls on the job, and what the hell Newbie is doing at the shooting range with Mac.

Then, after this all gets wrapped up we still have five minute left. I am confused. They don't have enough time for another suspect, and goodness knows CSI is nothing if not succinct. Instead we find Newbie in a bar. With two beers. And Danny walks in.

*gasp* I almost fell off the couch.

But then they start watching the show, and it turns out Mac is a secret guitar guy. Playing onstage. Which is nice, because it would be sad if he just went home and sat with his beachball. This is possibly the biggest revelation of the night!!! Seriously, I was drained by the end of the hour.

The most notable exception to this otherwise terribly interesting episode was that Flack had absolutely no revelations of his own and barely two lines. Most of which were disgusting. Except for "Commenting, not condoning." That was funny. Seriously, somebody needs to give him lines. He was good enough for Friends- he's probably good enough for this!!!!
