- SPOILER ALERT: I really need to rewatch the GAME OF THRONES finale. I think I am still sort of confused...but I will give a shot here.  Okay so the Lannister's won the battle of Blackwater, I get that.  But wasn't Tyrion a major part of why they won, considering that King Joffrey/Geoffery went and hid in his room?  Why is he banished now?  And...why when King J/G's grandfather came back from battle wouldn't he take the thrown?  I thought, that J/G's mom was actually doing a good thing when she allowed J/G to dump his current Stark fiance for the gay Kings wife, but then when Lord Barish promised to get her back to Winterfell or help her escape and she declared Kings Landing as her home...maybe not.  Rob Stark got married, and Jon Snow proved worthy of freedom...sort of,  and of course my favorite part, Khaleesi had a weird dream/magical thing with Kal Drago and her baby but of course in the end she got her dragons back.  Did I capture it?  I am sure I will have less questions once I watch it all again. Sad to see Winterfell fall...but it's gone and now all the Starks have to somehow find each other and a place to live. 

-I did also watch the MTV MOVIE AWARDS which were kinda of lame and also, not really appropriate for my 10 year old.  I think there were 6 bleeps...maybe more.  Tons of profanity and even the first award which I believe used to be called Best Villain, has now been changed to Best Dirtbag??? Was that necessary?  Also, way too much Kristen Stewart for me, I know she was promoting her new movie Snow White and the Huntsman, but really the girl can't speak and is just so awkward. I also hat the sneakers with the dress look.   Charlie Sheen looked high on something didn't he?  Emma Stone is awesome and she always is. 

Most of the awards last night went to either The Hunger Games, Twilight or Harry Potter...I have an idea...maybe MTV and Nick should combine award shows because the TEEN CHOICE AWARDS, THE KIDS CHOICE AWARDS and this show all pretty much ask the same audience to vote for all of these same movies. Broadcast on both networks and call it day...saves money and DVR time all around.  Oh, and one note to Joe Perry from Aerosmith...spit out the big fat wad of gum when you are going up present an award...it's disgusting and a bit disrespectful no matter how cool you may be. 

-On Friday, Mike Greenberg was Kelly's co-host again on LIVE WITH KELLY.  Kelly seemed to be all flustered, maybe because Chris Hemsworth and Joey Lawrence were on the show? She forgot Mike's name and she really seemed to be into Joey...there was definitely something weird going on over there. 

-Jennie Garth took her kids and her nutty assistant Corinne on a camping trip on A LITTLE BIT COUNTRY Friday night, which was really so that she could discuss moving back to LA with the kids in order to help Luca (Jennie's daughter) with her singing career.  The problem is...nobody wants to go.  Of course they didn't make a decision,  but they were able to get the tents up, get a fire going and pee in the woods.  So I guess I would consider that a successful trip.

-Saturday night TANKED aired another great "best of show" that featured the most challenging tanks the guys have built to date.  It was great for me personally because I got to see a bunch of builds from the first season AND I was texting with Brett the entire time...who needs Twitter?   The guys built this one tank that was 70,000 gallons it was in a church and was unbelievable. I know a lot of you guys have checked the show out...hope you saw this episode it was really cool.  Next week, the guys build a KISS tank for Gene Simmons and the band, I can't wait to see that one.

-It's official, Andy Samberg is leaving SNL...no more SNL Digital Shorts??? That was my favorite part of the show.  

-In Andy Cohen's awesome book, he talked about this REAL HOUSEWIVES OF SNL spoof.  I didn't remember seeing it and it is pretty funny, thought I'd share: 

  
-Some Comscore data for the month of April:
  • Google's Android is continuing to expand its share of the domestic smartphone market, accounting for 50.8% of US smartphone subscribers, which is a 2.2% increase from the previous three-month average.   
  • Apple's iOS remained in second place, increasing its share of the market from 29.5% to 31.4%.  
  • RIM (11.6%; -3.6%) 
  • Microsoft (4.0%; -0.4%) 
  • Symbian (1.3%; -0.2%) rounded out the top five
More than 107 million people in the US owned smartphones during the three months ending in April, which is up 6% versus January. In terms of mobile content usage:

  • 50.2% of US smartphone subscribers used downloaded apps in the three months ending in April 2012 (+1.6% over the previous three-month period).
  • 49% used a browser (+0.5%).
  • 36% accessed a social networking site or blog (+0.3%).
Monday's Trivia Question: Richard Dawson passed away over the weekend.  I grew up watching Richard kiss a every woman on FAMILY FEUD but prior to that he appeared as a regular on a 60's sitcom as Capt. Newkirk...name the show.

  1. Yeah I think you got it on the Game of thrones but Why wasn't Joffrey overthrown for being a coward? and why would anyone want her sister to married that sick bastard? He gets off on showing everyone he's a douche. Tyrion took over the Leadership when the King went out the backdoor, the people know this! The King of course removed him because he embarrassed him and he proved to everyone that Joffrey was not capable to be King!!! I too need to watch it over since mine was cut in half due to a blackout and I lost a few minutes!! It still is a Great Show and I too thought they were crazy when they cut the head off of Ned due to he was the Major Actor to let out of his duties so early!!!!
