THE SHOWS


Parks & Recreation
Ben's new Pawnee website went live and created the need for a new town slogan...check it out here: http://www.pawneeindiana.com. Tom was looking for locations for his new restaurant and finally found one near the office. Jurassic Fork would have been a great place but the dinosaur was load bearing and wouldn't have worked with the Italian theme very well. Loved the other Steven Spielberg themed place, Schindlers Lunch.  Leslie's not going to take the big Parks job is she? Two loose leaf binders filled with questions about the job but the one question she really needed an answer to, she didn't ask. Would she be able to continue to make big binders filled with questions in the new gig? She wouldn't actually, she'd have "people" for that. I'm betting she turns it down. No way Leslie can live without making binders. Was it me or did Amy Poehler look a little over-botoxed?  The biggest revelation for Andy last night was that Ron didn't have a twin brother, but actually WAS Duke Silver, the jazz musician in Eagleton. Ron Rules.

Reign
Lola's pregnant...of course she is. Mary's not...yet. Of course Mary found out about Lola, but Francis doesn't know she's pregnant and Lola doesn't want him to find out which means that at some point...he will. Bash met some Katniss Everdeen chick in the woods and then found a messed up Olivia in the woods also. Those woods see a lot of action don't they? Bash schlepped Olivia back to the castle and saw Mary in the process which of course pissed Francis off big time. The King got the grossest, old dude for Kenna to check out, but since the Duke's sister died falling out the window having sex with the King, he's not sticking around. Kenna didn't care really, she's totally into the King. She should be, the King's hot. Hotter than his two sons actually. When he accidentally killed the Dutchess, he knew exactly who to get to help him literally clean up the mess. The Queen. Of course she negotiated a chateau out of the deal and turned her King on a bit. Mission accomplished.

Scandal
How does the cast remember their lines every week?. More words come out of their mouths than anyone I've ever seen before. Kate Burton, the actress who plays Sally Langston deserves and Emmy. All that bible stuff spewing from her mouth is an incredible feat. Command's out of control already. While Sally wasn't assassinated during the debate, she almost was and then the OMG moment of the episode, or maybe of the month...who did Jake kill? James or David? I really want both of them to stick around, but my guess is that James is a goner.

THE OTHER STUFF

-Game of Thrones fans, how cool does this sound? On Tuesday, a bunch of the Game of Thrones cast members will be at Avery Fisher Hall in NYC for the Season 4 premiere. For the first time ever, HBO will let fans in on the red carpet action by live streaming the event on  Facebook Live. Fans will be able to participate by sharing questions on Facebook and Instagram and the cast will answer live from the red carpet from 6-7pm If you want to check it out go to Facebook.com/GameofThrones or FacebookLive.com After the red carpet, fans will be able to see an exclusive Season 4 trailer on Facebook at 7pm 

-I'm guessing that Les and Julie can go on a little vacation since there really isn't much to do over at CBS these days. With so many primetime programs being renewed, not much to keep Les chained to his desk.  I mean he's making cameos on Episodes for god sakes. Les announced that 20 of CBS's shows will be back next season. So, no need for a 3 hour long upfront preso right? Here's how it goes Les: Bag Carnegie Hall, Go right to the party, get the mic and say: Thank You, It's been a great year, we're number 1 in everything, Nina Tassler's great, thanks for you're business, we'll be happy to take more, cocktails and snacks on YOU! Happy Upfront C U next year!  

- I was a huge, huge Deadliest Catch fan...for years. When Captain Phil died, I stopped watching the show. Last season, the Cornelia Marie wasn't part of the show and I didn't watch. Well...when the season starts up again on 4/22, the Cornelia Marie will be back in action with Phil's son Jake at the helm. Between that news and the news that Sig Hansen's DAUGHTER Mandy is joining the Northwestern, I may get back on board. 

-I'm a Puppy Bowl loyalist, but for all you cat people, Beth Stern and the Kitten Bowl will be back next year on the Hallmark Channel. 

Friday's Trivia Question: Scott Foley plays Jake on Scandal but we all knew and loved him as Noel on Felicity. Who was Felicity's roommate? 

Have a great weekend!
