Sons of Anarchy
Not much coffee served on Sons of Anarchy this week, but lots of secrets revealed. Definitely stop reading if you haven't watched the episode yet. It was one of the best episodes of the season and shockingly...not one death. Of course we had to have one scene of crazy violence, so Clay bit a prison guards nose off during a prayer service but that was just so he could make a few calls. Everyone knows that Gemma's nuts and needs a good colorist, but they also know that everything she does, is out of love for her son and the club. Nero's only known her a short time and even though she told him the truth about John Teller's death, he believed her about Tara's attack and got Jax to finally open his eyes. Of course they had to beat the crap out of each other first, but net/net Jax found out the truth about Gemma and her conjugal Clay visit AND Tara's plans to leave town with the boys. Tara's lawyer (who's also the clubs lawyer) was quick to blow off attorney/client privilege and tell Jax everything. Margaret Murphy, Tara's bud at the hospital, was also was quick open her mouth too. What Jax decides to do with all of this intel, we won't know til next week. If that wasn't a heavy enough weight to bare, Jax and the club decided it was time to get Patterson and her new hair off their tails, so Jax showed up in her office to make her an offer she just couldn't refuse. He'd give her the IRA in return for full immunity for him and the club and for Tara's charges to be dropped. Of course this was before he knew that Tara was planning on divorcing him and taking the kids, so who knows if his plans will change. They prob won't though. Jax is a good bad guy with a heart and a need to do what's right. I mean he basically took Chucky in who now speaks through a Kazoo, and this week helped out a bipolar chick and her Dad who were about to lose their house. In a weird side storyline, the girls Mom was killed in the same "accident" that took out Jax's Dad. You know the Mom's not really dead though. Jax thought she looked familiar and then there was a dumpster diving homeless chick right near Scoops and Sweets...guessing that's Mom. I doubt Kurt Sutter reads this blog and I don't want to get him annoyed with me, I mean I LOVE him and I LOVE SOA, but these video montage episode enders are getting old. I love every minute of every episode until we get to the video montage. They're totally unnecessary. He doesn't need it and now we know it means the end of the episode, so I say...bag um Kurt. You're a great storyteller without them.
The Goldbergs
Barry got his license and Bev had a million rules before he could go out and cruise in his Ray Bans and acid wash jacket, but the big one...CALL WHEN YOU GET THERE was a problem. It was a problem for me and my friends back in the day because we didn't have cell phones. So calling when you got there wasn't always that simple. Also not that simple back in the day, working a VCR. The kids always knew how to operate it and the parents always got frustrated. Sounds like me teaching my Mom about her Ipad today. Bev saw the "I've Fallen and I Can't Get Up" commercial while she was folding laundry and ordered that thing for Pops who of course was mortified to wear it until...he fell and couldn't get up. Hilarious. Additional 80's stuff in this one:

THE TALK-LOVE BOAT REUNION!
OOOOO MMMMM GGGGGG...I hope you guys TiVO'ed The Talk yesterday! As I told you the other day, It was the The Love Boat reunion! The cast got dressed up as The Love Boat crew and then the real crew showed up! ALL OF THEM. The men have aged much better than the women. Lauren Tewes, aka Julie McCoy my cruise director, was unrecognizable. The only thing the same was her voice! Charo showed up and still did her koochy koochy thing as a surprise for the gang, but they didn't let her speak at all which was weird. Then Jack Jones came out to sing (barely) The Love Boat theme song. I had the stupidest grin on my face the entire time I was watching. I kept calling my husband to come watch it with me. I remembered every single clip they showed. Shocker of the show...Bernie Kopell, aka Doc is 80 years old! 5 point bonus if you can tell me the day and time that The Love Boat aired. Check out a clip:

NEWS & INFORMATION:
-Sean Saves the World got an order for just 1 more episode from NBC. Just 1. At this point in the season, that's sort of tough news. You don't know if you should buy or lease that car, buy or lease that house, book that vacation etc. I'd say lease everything and save the cash. No vacations.
-I'm totally not a game system gamer at all. My gaming is pretty much limited to Candy Crush, Plants vs. Zombies, and Scrabble. I don't think I've ever used my son's XBox ever. I probably should do some detective work and learn what's going on on that thing, especially when I hear that networks like History Channel are launching apps, delivering content, and releasing music and promotional offers on the game systems. How many of you are consuming content on game systems? Anyone?
-Speaking of History Channel, they are planning on remaking the mini series Roots. I actually think this is a great idea. No funny comment or anything, just a good idea.
