THE SHOWS
Glee
Okay, WTF is wrong with the GLEE writers? Everyone at McKinley graduated a couple of weeks ago which made no sense but we went with it, right? Now everyone in NYC at NYADA is performing their Mid-Winter critique? How exactly is that possible? Did we skip a year or something? Are they on Quadmesters? Totally ridiculous. Okay, now that I have that off my chest…another complaint. What's with all the Broadway tunes? I like knowing the songs the gang is performing. I think "Natural Woman" was the only song I knew this week. Complaint #3. Sam and Mercedes? Not buying it at all. No chemistry…none. Complaint #4. Didn't Blaine JUST get accepted to NYADA? How could he be evaluated in the Mid-Winter critique. The Kurt beating was upsetting, but it did bring the best Dad in the universe back to the show. Any excuse to see Burt Hummel is fine by me. Come on Ryan Murphy, I know you're busy with movies and American Horror Story but hoping you haven't entirely checked out of Glee. You made a commitment, send this show off the right way.
The Goldbergs
I was SO excited for The Goldbergs "7 Minutes in Heaven" episode and of course it did not disappoint. All of us have been to that awkward 7MIH party. I don't recall our parties including any one's embarrassing sibling, smelly cheese or oysters, but the rest of it was just like I remember. Of course I don't think any one's Mom was EVER in the closet with any of the party guests but we're talking Bev Goldberg, the SMOTHER IN THE CLOSET. Classic Bev. Also classic: Geraldo Rivera's opening of Al Capone's vault, (Total bust if you recall) velour clothing of any kind, Scott Baio posters, Bob Ross the painter, Pac Man watches and The Cure. Name the song for 10 points. I need to check to see if there were tasers, pheromones and laser tag helmet back in nineteen eight something, I feel like those could have been later than the 80's. My laser tag didn't have helmets did yours? Funny that Adam's first kiss included those helmets though. COME ON ABC...I NEED CONFIRMATION OF SEASON 2!
Chasing Maria Menonous
This shows really cute, I really like it. I didn't know much at all about Maria Menonous. I'm never home to watch Access Hollywood, so I only know Maria and Keven from Howard Stern. If Howard likes Maria, then I like Maria that's just the way I roll. So if you remember from last week, Keven decided to convert to Greek Orthodox for Maria and her family. This week they went home to Boston to tell Keven's Mom, Kathie. I was expecting Kathie to be super evil and mean but she obviously loves and cares about her son and only wants him to succeed. Kathie was a bit of a ball buster towards Maria but not at all as bad as Maria made her out to be. Maybe that was intentional. You can do a lot with editing. It's a little weird that Keven calls Kathie "Mother" I don't know think I know anyone that calls their Mom, Mother. Kathie's head didn't explode when Keven told her he was converting. Maybe having the camera's there helped him. Who knows, she just wasn't as bad as I think we were all expecting. After they broke the news, Keven and Maria did a trip down memory lane. Apparently they were broke and homeless and sold sausages at Fenway back in the day. It's hard to get past how beautiful Maria is sometimes, now I know why Howard loves her so much. She also wears this really cool ring that I'm now obsessed with and need to research. Anyway, Chasing Maria's a good show, I gave it a Season Pass last night, if you're into reality shows, you'll like this one. I promise.

Resurrection
No big revelations this week. Nothing really explained at all. The only interesting development is that Tom-the-pastor's ex, who came back after killing herself, is pregnant with Tom's kid. So she died pregnant and came back pregnant. We did learn a little bit about Bellamy and why he's so invested in Jacob, but all in all nothing super juicy. With Sunday's getting insane again, hard choices need to be made. What are you guys watching LIVE on Sunday's? I already loaded the biggies for this coming Sunday to the right. Let me know, I want to watch what you guys are watching.
THE OTHER STUFF
-It was pretty much a no brainer that Game of Thrones would be renewed. Seasons 5 and 6 are a go. I didn't read the books, but from what I understand, the final books aren't even written yet right? So I'm guessing as long as we keep watching, HBO will keep the show coming back until the story's over and technically, I guess, the story could go on forever. Name the author of the Game of Thrones books for 10 points.
-If you've got an Xbox and you missed the premiere of Game of Thrones Sunday night, good news. As of yesterday, you can stream it for free until 4/14. This is all part of Microsoft's plans to bring more subscribers to their Xbox streaming service. Game of Thrones has always been one of the most illegally viewed shows out there. Sunday's show was illegally viewed 1.1 million times within the first 15 hours of the shows airing.

-I'm guessing that by now, anyone who has Direct TV has figured out where else to get their weather information since they haven't had The Weather Channel in 3 months, but if you are still not sure if you should grab an umbrella or a heavier coat, guess what, The Weather Channel's back. The two companies finally made nice and worked it out and all of you Direct TV people can breathe easy and tune in to Sam Champion asap.
