Happy Wednesday!! I hope everyone is experiencing the same lovely weather we are here. I had planned to take notes while watching all 5 of my shows last night, but it turns out I wrote meaningless squee like Vincent!!! Butters! Whoo hooo!, which is not helpful for a thoughtful review. So, as a challenge to myself I’ve arbitrarily decided that I can only write 2 sentences about each of my Tuesday shows. Let’s see if rambly me can accomplish this!

Veronica Mars “Nevermind the Buttocks” (2:19)

1. I love how many clues to the mystery were in this episode, especially how Kendall (aka Priscilla Banks – awesome name!) and Liam Fitzpatrick are connected, and even though I question whether either one of them is responsible (because there will be a huge twist in the last episode), Liam is deliciously creepy.
2. I never believed that Weevil was behind the bus crash and I love that he helped out the PCHers but didn’t rejoin the gang (I wouldn’t have respected him if he had); now I worry he’ll die this season (not based on any spoilers, just my own crazy theory because he’s so cool).

Okay, I can’t resist a couple more sentences:
- I’m not thrilled about this “maybe Duncan did kill Lily” suggestion, although if it leads to more Aaron scenes (and not more Duncan scenes) it will be entertaining.
- The Wallace/Jackie stuff wasn’t that interesting, I liked it better when Wallace’s love life was secondary to his friendship with Veronica.
- Logan starting to list his whole romantic/sexual history was very funny.

Gilmore Girls “I Get A Sidekick Out of You” (6:19)

1. I loved that Lorelei said “frakking” (second BSG reference on the show), and this quote: Lorelei Gilmore, disappointing mothers since 1968.
2. Lane’s wedding was really fun, and the stuff with her mom made me cry, however Lorelei’s drunken speech was so cringe-worthy and heart-breaking (I really liked it, and am hoping the big confrontation with Luke will happen SOON).

Okay, again I have more to say. Clearly I fail at my own challenge.
- Even though I’m not that keen when they have characters marrying young on tv (not that it doesn’t happen in real life), I really believe that it will work for Lane and Zack (what do you mean they’re not real characters?).
- Mrs. Kim’s sex speech was wonderfully horrible!
- I loved the double wedding and double ceremony, very fun and in keeping with Lane’s double life.
- Logan’s accident: I just don’t care that much, although maybe if he’s seriously injured it’ll make him more interesting?

Scrubs “His Story III” (5:19)

1. Alternate perspective episodes are fun, but the main thing I love about the show is J.D.’s inner monologue and fantasies so although I enjoyed the Janitor’s story, it wasn’t my favourite episode.
2. I loved when the Janitor’s inner monologue said something like And now I’ll help him up so he’ll think there’s a chance for a good relationship,, and then we switched into J.D.’s monologue which viewed the gesture exactly the way the Janitor wanted (I also loved Turk’s concern that he wasn’t Black enough … and yes this technically doesn’t have anything to do with the sentence but I’m trying to sneak this in so I only have two sentences).

House “Sleeping Dogs Lie” (2:18)

1. I loved when Cameron said We have rectal bleeding, about the patient, and House replied All of you?"
2. It was an interesting episode in terms of Cameron, and the scene when Foreman tells her they’re not friends is really well done.

Teachers “Golf” (1:4)
1. This was funnier than the previous episodes, probably because I enjoy over-the-top stuff like the principal doing her ridiculous acting.
2. I’m not that fond of the slacker teacher always knowing more about the students than the British teacher; it would be nice if they mixed that up a bit.


Okay, so I completely failed my own challenge for Veronica Mars and Gilmore Girls, and I basically failed it for Scrubs. However I did succeed with House and Teachers, yay me? So that’s 2 out of 5, um, yeah I fail. Tonight is Bones (yay!!), The Amazing Race, and the two hour return of Alias.

Random thing: they turned the air conditioning on at work and now it’s beautiful and refreshing, instead of hot and stiffling.

You'll probably note that the icon I'm using (by kornpeep) has nothing to do with my post. It just amuses me because I love that Buffybot smile and that line of hers always cracks me up.
