Comments Off on SMALLVILLE: ‘Abandoned’
Hey, SMALLVILLE fans! I’m stepping in for Sarah to recap the show this week. And boy, what an episode to take on!
It all kicks off with Tess dreaming about her childhood. She’s a frightened young girl, trying to escape an unseen woman, but is unable to hide. The woman drags Tess away as a music box plays — man, how sharp are Tess’s nails that she can claw marks into wood like that as she’s being pulled away? Tess wakes up from the dream and finds the music box in her home. Uh oh.
After the General left, he sent Lois a box of her mother’s things. Lois had kept the box in her closet for 15 years, but her guilt for not going to the hospital to say goodbye to her mother has kept her from opening it up. She discovers her mom left her videos but reluctant to watch them.
SUPERNATURAL: All Dogs Go To Heaven

Well, I could have done with a little less dog murder, but it was still an enjoyable, if creepy, episode. There wasn’t much that directly dealt with the show’s mythology, but we did get some nice moments, both brother-wise and monster-wise, that will continue to have an impact throughout the season. What this episode was really about was getting Dean on board with the “be Crowley’s bitch” plan in order to get Sam’s soul back. The season so far, while really enjoyable, has felt a bit aimless so I’m happy that we now have a specific goal established (restore Sam), and a means by which to attain it (capture a live alpha for Crowley).

Are you ready for a strong dose of adorable? The other day we gave you a first look at the GLEE babies – the little kids cast to play the younger versions of the McKinley High gleekers.
Now go behind the scenes to see these mini me’s in action on the set of GLEE. Sounds like they are just going to be in one scene, but man they are precious.

GREY’S ANATOMY: ‘Something’s Gotta Give’
November 12, 2010 by Christina Scanlon
Filed under #1 featured, Grey's Anatomy, Grey's Anatomy Recap
The first thing that comes to my mind after watching this week’s episode of GREY’S ANATOMY? Alex Karev officially wins the award for least personal growth by any character on any show ever. At the beginning of the series he was Seattle Grace’s resident jerk, way before Mark showed up and temporarily stole that title from him. Now, six and a half years later, Mark has mellowed out and Alex is still the same old jerk seemingly hell-bent on making everyone hate his guts.
You’d think he’d at least try to be a decent guy to April. She hasn’t been there long enough to know him that well, so she’s probably the only girl in the hospital who’s even capable of being attracted to him at this point. Up until he screws her over too.
FRINGE: ‘Initiate Phase Two’

Bumpy plane ride, important numbers (including the digits 8, 15, and 42), plus a repeating message leading people to a destination?
No, kids, you didn’t travel back in time and stumble upon an unaired episode of LOST. Instead, FRINGE borrowed some key elements from its sister-show (both series were co-created by J.J. Abrams) for one of the most important hours of the season.
BONES: ‘The Shallow in the Deep’

Filed under #1 featured, Bones
Hey, hey, hey, BONES darlings, how’s it going?! Wasn’t this a great episode? An intriguing case, the squint squad in action, some hilarious B&B bickering and a poignant ending all combined to reassure us that BONES, when done well, is worthy of our love. Although there was a lot of Daisy in this episode, I’m still going to chalk it up as one of my favorites of the season. What say you? Before you weigh in, let’s cover some of the details. Starting with…
THE VAMPIRE DIARIES…You Take it From Here
November 11, 2010 by Kath Skerry
Filed under #1 featured, The Vampire Diaries
Well tonight sucked! (No pun intended.)
Long story (not so) short…Yesterday, in an effort to be more financially responsible, I turned in my second DVR. It was difficult and I damn near cried when the Comcast tech walked out the door, but it was the right call. Knowing that THE VAMPIRE DIARIES usually records on that second DVR, I made sure that it was all set to go on DVR #1. I double checked. Hell, I triple checked. And at 8:12pm when I went to tune in…nothing! It wasn’t recording. Noooo! I quickly screamed “Someone! Give Me My Remote!” (Ha, you like how I did that?) and I immediately hit record. Seeing that the little red button was on, I felt okay taking my puppy, Digby, out for a walk knowing I could watch the last 45 minutes of TVD when I got home. Or so I thought. Much to my horror, when I pressed ‘play’ the picture was all jumbled and no sound recorded. Ugh!
All this to say, that I didn’t get to see THE VAMPIRE DIARIES tonight. I’ll be sure to catch up online tomorrow, but it’s not going to help me much tonight.
But YOU can…
Feel like filling a sister in on the show? Feel free to recap a way in the comments below. Maybe this can be a group effort and you all can tell me what happened with the different characters. Or if you’re not in the recapping mood, just share your thoughts on tonight’s episode. Come on…I’m desperate!

FRINGE Preview: ‘6955 kHz’

Filed under Fringe
We’re back to our universe on tonight’s brand new episode of FRINGE.
Based on the interviews and footage in the official Fox promo for “6955 kHz,” it certainly appears like the hour will be touching on some of the show’s bigger questions. Maybe the episode will bring us the answers about Peter’s machine that executive producers Jeff Pinkner, J.H. Wyman and Akiva Goldsman teased would be coming?
Take a look…

Wil Wheaton is returning to THE BIG BANG THEORY!
Yes, Sheldon encounters his rival in tonight’s all-new episode and refers to him as “the Jar Jar Binks of the Star Trek universe.” Cannot wait to hear Evil Wil’s reply to that.
And it appears the girls are having a sleepover, which should be, um, different.

THE SIMPSONS has been renewed for a 23rd season, Fox has announced.
“Like many 22-year-olds, THE SIMPSONS is extremely happy remaining at home, on FOX, and hopes it doesn’t have to go out into the real world for many years to come,” said executive producer Al Jean in a press release.
The upcoming 23rd season will include the 500th episode milestone. How crazy is that?
