Quote for the Day 9/26/2009

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen”
-Elizabeth Kubler Ross

Thoughts on TV Shows Last Week

First of all, in continuation of this post, 90210 and Vampire Diaries are still totally on my good side! Vampire Diaries in particular is just knocking my socks off! I got the first 2 books of that series on Friday and I've already finished the first one! Yay!!!

One Tree Hill
This one was okay. It was pretty much what I expected without Peyton & Lucas. It's captured my attention enough to keep watching it, but I don't expect great things as of right now. I do like the 2 new characters so far! That's good! I don't like what they're doing with Dan at all and I'm not looking forward to the Nathan storyline, but I guess they've got to add some drama now that Peyton is gone. We'll see how it goes...

Gossip Girl
This was great! I love Chuck & Blair! I'm cool with the rest of the stuff they're setting up right now! I really like this show and I'm excited about this season!!! I'm a little nervous about Hilary Duff being on the season later, but I'm sure it'll be okay. I did alright with Michelle Trachtenberg.

Jay Leno
I'm not super obsessed with the new Jay Leno show so far. I do like the 10 at 10 thing. That's pretty much all my comments on that as of right now.

Bones
Oh, Bones how I missed you!! I was not super thrilled with this episode, but I have complete faith in this show and I just love love love it as a whole!! I do wish that Booth & Brennan would just deal with the crap and finally get together. I'm annoyed with it and I just don't know how long they can drag that out. We're going into the 5th season now!!! Give us some Booth & Brennan action!!! Some legitimate, not dreaming action please!! But I still loved it. I think Booth is so funny now that he's come back from surgery and not exactly acting like himself. It's going to be a good season!

Community
I thought this one started out kinda rough for me, but by the end of it, I was loving it!! My favorite character is Abed, played by Danny Pudi. Yes, I know my favorite character should be Joel McHale, but it just isn't. If you watched the episode - my favorite part was when Abed was sitting there as everyone was mouthing words to each other behind Jeff's (McHale) back and Abed goes, "What's going on?!? Can you all hear me?!? Am I deaf?!?" hahaha I laughed so hard and I kept laughing after the episode was over! Yay!

Thoughts on TV Shows Last Week

This premiere was actually great in my opinion! Last season, I was on the fence about whether or not I wanted to watch it when it came back on. I'm happy to say, it sucked me right back in!


Melrose Place
I didn't like this one. I partially thought the acting wasn't great, I also partially thought the story just wasn't that interesting to me, and mainly I just thought it was too much. It was just too much sex & drama with not enough actual good show quality to keep me interested. I will not be watching anymore episodes.


The Vampire Diaries
Now, this is a show that I didn't plan on watching. If you look back at my blog, you'll notice I haven't even mentioned it. I just wasn't interested at all. Then Friday night rolls around & I'm in my room bored while Lewis is playing a video game & I decide to see what's on TV. The most interesting thing was an encore presentation of The Vampire Diaries pilot episode. So I figured I didn't really have anything to lose. Within 10 minutes, I found myself sitting there going, "Dang it!! This is awesome!!!!!" It was very unexpected. But then I found myself thinking about it the rest of the night & talking about it today!! So if you're interested in a new show - check out The Vampire Diaries on the CW. There is another showing of the pilot Sunday at 8 I think. Check your local listings!!
