Tonight’s TV Spotlight…Monday, April 20, 2009

It’s official.  This is the longest I’ve ever gone without updating GMMR.  It sucks! Still without internet access in our hotel.  It’s actually pretty early in the morning here in L.A. and I’m at a Starbucks — I had to at least post something today…it’s Monday…prett big TV day.

Paley has been a lot of fun (not that you would know about it since I haven’t blogged a thing).  I’ll be sure anectdotes and pictures when I get back to Boston.

Thanks for your patience this week.  I really do wish I could be updating more but there’s only so much I can do from my iPhone.

Going to post a few things this morning and then I’m heading back to the hotel  It’s going to be another really hot day here (yesterday it was 94 degrees….glad I was inside the theater all day) and I want to hang by the pool until it’s time for me to go to BSG/CAPRICA.

No Monday night TV for me.  I’ll be at Paley while all the shows are on, and no internet access I won’t be able to watch any of the shows online.  So sad.

Please watch lots and lots of TV tonight and think of me.  Here are a few of tonight’s highlight.

Chuck | 8pm on NBC
“Chuck Versus the Colonel”
Chuck and Sarah get closer when they go AWOL to rescue Chuck’s father (Scott Bakula); Morgan becomes an outcast at Buy More after inadvertently getting Emmett (Tony Hale) promoted. [GMMR: Hey guess what? CHUCK ratings went up last week! That’s huge.  But the work is NOT done yet.  No resting until NBC gets off their asses and renews CHUCK. Please do what you can to spread the word today and make sure you watch CHUCK tonight!]

“Big Littles and Jumbo Shrimp”
Rusty learns that Andy hooked up with Jordan; the arrival of Evan’s brother stirs up family money issues and leads to a bombshell for Frannie.

I’ll share lots more about our GREEK adventure once I have a more stable internet connection.  CAPPIE!!!]
