In All Things TV
Here’s what we had to offer for the year’s second quarter.
- I took a trip to Savannah, Georgia and ate at Paula Deen’s Lady and Sons restaurant.
- Cristin love-hated the Pussycat Dolls reality show. Actually, maybe it was just more hate-hated.
- I felt shame for my love of Work Out and Sam Champion.
- Maggie looked at the big picture on Heroes.
- Kyle did a post-mortem on TiFaux Madness — the wildly successful event that nearly made Maggie lose her faith in humanity. Or, I don’t know, maybe it actually did.
- Cristin cried shenanigans on TV Turnoff Week.
- Kyle recommended solutions for fixing Studio 60 (too late, buckaroo).
- Cristin and I did a sweeps death-likelihood analysis.
- I broke up with Grey’s Anatomy (although it didn’t actually follow through). By the way, this is my best post of the year.
- Maggie sums up all of the seasons upfronts with a series of polls.
- Cristin went through the stages of mourning for Veronica Mars.
- Maggie dedicated an entire week to the celebration of Judd Apatow.
- I didn’t watch Shear Genius and freaked out about it. All went back to normal with my ill-fated recaps of Top Chef.
- I went ballistic of the bullshit series finale of The Sopranos.
- My favorite Cristin post of the year: I’m Sick of Your Shit — Age of Love.
I discovered while I was at home that one of my brothers resents 30 Rock (having never seen it) because it survived to fall ‘07 and Studio 60 didn’t. (This came up when the American Express commercial with Tina Fey came on and my dad, thinking she was just some actress, said the commercial reminded him of me. I was giddy.) This reinforces my belief that that particular brother is an idiot. Although there might be hope for him; I bought him Battlestar Galactica for Christmas.
