THE SHOWS
Girls Lena Dunham warned us all on SNL that this weeks episode of Girls would be something to see. I'll admit, the warning made me nervous. I knew I'd hate it more than I normal and I was right. First we had a very drunk Hannah, then a vomiting Hannah, then a wet, naked-in-front-of-a-co-worker Hannah. You'd think that'd be enough right? Nope! Hannah actually missed the twisted stuff Adam used to make her do in bed before he fell in love with her and tried to recreate it all by donning a blond wig and a crazy black outfit and pretended to be a married bar slut for him. He wanted very little to do with her insanity. Of course he did have sex with her, he is Adam after all, but he had it out with her as soon as he was done. Marnie took a job with Su Chin and then sang with Adam's co-star and just when you thought that you've seen every possible bizarre hairdo on Shoshannah, she came up with a new one. I don't know how she finds the time to do that hair, study, find AND find Jessa's boyfriend's daughter. How many episodes til the finale? Resurrection Okay, so remember that French show I told you guys about on The Sundance Channel called The Returned? This show, Resurrection, isn't an identical twin of it, but it seems like it could be a fraternal one. Lots of similarities but a VERY different look, feel, and tone. The premise is the same so far. People in this one town that were dead just reappear alive at the age at which they died. Their loved ones have moved on and aren't sure what to make of the situation...yet. Of course there's a "secret" in the town which is just like The Returned. The French version got super creepy and scary. I hope this one doesn't take that turn. I'm in...for now.
Vikings
My theory about Rollo, Lagertha and Teen Bjorn was totally wrong. I thought for sure that they'd all hook up and come back to the village but it was 4 years later and the Princess is still around. She's pumped out 2 sons and is knocked up with another. Rollo's a homeless drunkard and Lagertha and Teen Bjorn are nowhere to be found. Ragnar's been building boats and training his guys and was finally ready to set sail for Northern England to get back to what he loves...raiding. Problem on the high seas though...a huge storm sent them to Wessex instead. Thanks to Google I figured out that Wessex is in the South of England and according to Ragnar's priest pal, who's became a brave warrior himself (and who is no longer celibate from what I can tell) is ruled by a King just like Ragnar. We met him for a second in this episode chillin in a massive bathtub. I can tell you this...looks wise, he's no Ragnar Lothbrook!
THE OTHER STUFF
-FOX has already renewed New Girl, The Mindy Project, Brooklyn Nine-Nine & The Following. Yeah the Bacon's are going to be okay now. They're in a rebuild mode ever since they got screwed by Madoff.
- For anyone who hasn't jumped on the Orphan Black bandwagon. You still have time to watch the first season before the second one starts on 4/19. The entire season is available now on Amazon Prime! It's good...trust me!
-Of course I had to watch Lena Dunham on SNL. I mean I HAD TO! There were two hilarious skits. The Scandal one and the Romeo & Juliet one. The Scandal one had me dying...if you didn't see it. Don't go Googling it...here they both are for your convenience: http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/scandal/2755296
Monday's Trivia Question: When all else fails...go with a Seinfeld question. Name the opera the gang went to see in the Joe Davola episode.
