I know I'm sounding like a broken record now, but these castaways really are frustrating to watch! The few that seem likable aren't getting any screen time, and we're just left with a lot of whiny NaOnka, bossy Tyrone, and conceited Marty.
With Clark starting to learn how to fly, the season's big villain being showcased, and Smallville's favourite cousin (Kara Kent) returning to town, "Supergirl" had all the makings of a great episode.
When the people of a small town begin to die in biblical fashion, Sam and Dean call on an old friend for a divine intervention.
When several police officers begin to turn up dead after being affected by Egyptian plagues, the Winchester brothers look to Castiel (played by Misha Collins) to find the answers.
Where would you be if there was a North and South Texas? Or if ball-point pens and avocados were so uncommon they would be considered rare? Why, you would be watching the newest episode of Fringe, entitled "The Plateau", of course.
Deb/Oprah: "When you lose someone close, routine can be the ladder to help you climb back into normalcy."
In "Practically Perfect" Dexter (the show and person alike) seem to have gotten their groove back.
When Stefan and Damon's lives are on the line it's up to an unexpected ally to save them both in this week's episode, "Kill or Be Killed".
It's volunteer day in Mystic Falls as the opening of a new park provides Stefan with an opportunity to make peace with Mason Lockwood.
Most blackmail plots in comedy follow a very standard formula. Person A finds out that Person B did something bad, and Person B does not want Person C to find out. This usually results in Person A blackmailing Person B, and hilarity ensues. The plot thinkens in a predictable way: Person B has had enough of the blackmail, and comes clean to Person C.
TO BELIEVE OR NOT TO BELIEVE
After last week's circus-like Brtiney Spears episode, Glee does a 180 and produces one of the most emotional and possibly controversial episodes of the entire series. It all starts when Finn sees an image of Jesus Christ burned into his grill cheese sandwich.
I've read it elsewhere, including Dalton Ross' EW.com blog, but this fact about Survivor: Nicaragua can't possibly be overstated: there are not a lot of likable castaways this season. And with one of the few worth rooting for (Super Bowl-winning coach Jimmy Johnson) being sent home last week, it made for a very painful episode to watch.
Dexter: "It's like when you get on a plane, they tell you if the oxygen masks come down, to put yours on first before taking care of the kids. I need to take care of my own needs, too. Otherwise, I'll be spinning out of control. That's not good for anyone."
Falling back into routine after a tragedy is always a struggle.
