Friday’s Trivia Question

-I was out last night with Eddie, Alex, Wolfie and Diamond Dave (hoping most of you get that reference and know where I was) and didn’t get home until after midnight…a bit bleary eyed this morning and obviously didn’t get to watch much TV at all, but of course I am a trooper and got up extra early this morning to have something to write about:

-Quick Kelly update: That very bland, vanilla guy, Dan Abrahms, was back for his second shot with Kelly.  It was all relatively average and bland and vanilla.  Kelly was looking good, great dress, and no necklace and she seems to like Dan. I don’t know…at this point, maybe just stick with LIVE WITH KELLY, rotating co-hosts and call it a day. 

-PARKS & REC is really having a great time with Leslie’s campaign.  The newest “issue” Leslie and her missing running mate, Bobby Newport are going with is locking down the old peeps of Pawnee’s votes by promising to build ramps or elevators on every corner in town so they all will never have to take the stairs.  The leader of the Pawnee geezers was special guest star, Carl Reiner…pretty cool that he got a job at the age of 90!  Of course it was the other story that I found way funnier…apparently all Pawnee residents put their entire mouth on the water fountain spouts when quenching their thirst (totally gross), so Ron and the team needed to fix the problem as quickly as possible or Chris (the ultra cute Rob Lowe whose hair score for this episode was a 4 out of 5) would hire someone, which Ron was dead set against.  Of course the project results in crazy water fight…another great episode…can’t wait until the election.  Oh and I love the name of the political analyst on last night’s episode…Dylan Peever…classic.

-I did watch REVENGE this morning…so much happened in one episode, not sure where to begin.  With all the money the Grayson’s have you would think they could make sure that Daniel’s head was stitched up better than it was…he had a disgusting bloody bandage on the back of his head for the whole episode.  Maybe it will give him street cred when he gets to Rikers…oh…yeah…he was arrested for the murder of Tyler and because of his ability to leave town, he was sentenced to Rikers without bail.  He looked scared when they took him away.  Now Jack is freaking out because he thinks Emily/Amanda killed Tyler but his brother Decklin thinks that HE killed Tyler…Jack…if you are reading…rule of thumb…get rid of the bloody hoody…never keep anything with the murder victims blood on it…not that I would know from experience, but from all of the TV I watch…I have learned that you do need to get rid of the bloody hoody.  What was up with Nolan’s glow in the dark yellow t-shirt and matching sneakers?  At the very end of the episode it was revealed who did kill Tyler so none of us have to really think about it too much anymore…but now what I want to know is when Amanda/Emily went back to the house to hide the Infinity box…how did she get it cleaned up so fast? 

-Neil Patrick Harris was on LETTERMAN on Wednesday night (as was Taylor “Tim Riggins/John Carter” Kitsch.  NPH completely agrees with me and thinks it is absolutely time to reveal who the mom is already on HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER.  I am hoping he has more pull with the writers than I apparently do and gets this done.

-I don’t watch IDOL as you all know, but they did reveal the final 13 last night…hey…I don’t have much this AM…so I’m just giving you what I got.

-Nicolette Sheridan was on the stand yesterday telling jurors that Mark Cherry, the creator of DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES hit her in the head.  She is suing for 6 million bucks. The show says that she was just being given direction for a scene she was in.  DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES is wrapping up their final season…this could be their reality show spin-off!  Good idea right?  All of the cast is being called to testify…and it would seem that now…Nicolette, who claimed to be nothing like her character, is in fact…a DESPERATE HOUSEWIFE.
 
-I liked this chart because it definitely reflects the way I watch TV.  Maybe not ALL the time, but a lot of the time, I am multitasking…

-Nothing to do with TV, but in case he is reading…Happy 50th Birthday to Jon Bon Jovi…I cannot believe he is 50. 

-WWTM’s Weekend Movie Rental Suggestion: HOOSIERS…we rented it…one of the greatest sports movies ever. 

-Friday’s Trivia Question:  The Grayson’s on REVENGE hired Mr. Brooks played by Courtney B. Vance as Daniel’s attorney, but for me he will always be Jonesy from one of my favorite movies ever…Name the movie:

WNSM-Kristy
