THE SHOWS
True Tori Reunion
I know most of you are skipping this section, you aren't watching and that's cool, but I gotta say…all of us have had that conversation with our friends. We've all asked each other, "if you're spouse cheated on you, could you forgive? Could you stay with him/her? Everyone's answer is different. Tori and Dean's story and their answers have been played out before us on national television. People had their doubts about why anyone would allow cameras to film it all and honestly, I felt guilty watching it all, but I have to give both Tori and Dean credit for their courage. What went down was real, and raw and brutal. Last night some chick named Brooke Anderson who I'd never heard of before, hosted a reunion show that brought us all up to speed on their current situation. Net/net, they're in a decent place. Brooke had Tori's BFF, Mehran, she had her friends Wolf and Jess and of course Dr. Anne Wexler the psychiatrist with the best hair ever weighing in. All of them supported Tori and Dean throughout this process and all of them obviously have very different opinions on what they'd do if it happened to them.  Tori and Dean are together at this point and while it was ultra cheesy, Dean sang his heart out at the end of the show and I hate to admit it, but my eyes did well up with tears. I'm rooting for these guys. I really am. 

Deadliest Catch
Bairdi season is o…v…e…r. The Cape Caution Greenhorn, Kelly Collins, made it through but highly unlikely we'll ever see him on any deck ever again. Junior's back surgery went well. Hopefully he'll be able to fish again but I have my doubts. Elliot went to rehab in Taos, NM and Monty, even after his major screw up, met his quota and the gang got through the season. Unfortunately some fisherman didn't return home from the season. Sad right? Next week, The Harris's and the Cornelia Marie return which is one of the things I've been waiting for,  but I really want to see Sig's daughter on deck. That's what Discovery promised me, now where is she? 

Ladies of London
Hated it. It's that simple. I thought it would be fun, it wasn't. The Americans came across like idiots, the Brits are snobs, there's nobody likable or interesting at all. Don't bother.

THE OTHER STUFF

- I rarely report on on casting news, but I swear, I called it that Corey Stoll would be a big deal and with the news that he would be joining the Homeland cast I feel vindicated. For anyone who doesn't know who Corey Stoll is, you need to stop reading this blog and go watch House of Cards. When you're done, you'll agree with me on the Corey Stoll thing. 

-On Monday night's Tonight Show, my FBFF sent the real Ryan Lewis from Macklemore and Ryan Lewis out to Bryant Park to see if anyone knew who he was and what he does. As usual…hilarious. I consider myself a huge fan of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis and I totally would have known it was him, but I don't know if I would have been able to tell you what he actually does.

Wednesday's SUPER EASY Trivia Question: Name Tori Spelling's character on the original Beverly Hills 90210. For a bonus give me the chant. You'll know what I mean if you're a real 90210 fan.
