THE SHOWS 
Game of Thrones Well, Westeros has a new boy King…Thomas. That's exciting news for everyone that wants a piece of him already, but that was nothing compared to everything else that went on during last nights Game of Thrones. Lord Baylish brought Sancere to her very strange Aunt's place and met her very strange little cousin and future husband, Robin. Aunt Aron forced Baylish for a super quickie wedding. Not sure what's faster than a shotgun wedding but whatever that is, that's what Baylish got. At least the crazy chick kept her promise to deliver extremely loud screams while consummating her marriage. Poor Sancere, her life totally sucks. She was once a happy Stark and then her Dad's head was cut off, her Mom and bro killed, Joffrey, Tyrion, then things finally seem to be looking up with her escape from Kings Landing and then...crazy aunt/freaky cousin. Somehow, she does manage to dress beautifully and always have a good hair day though. Her sister Arya could work on her hair a bit. She and the hound are still schlepping and bickering all over the place. Arya is becoming pretty good with a sword, just like her brother, Jon Snow (1/2 bro really) who saved quite a few people with his mad sword skills.  Right through the neck and out the mouth. Now that's talent. I wonder what this 3 eyed raven is going to do once Brandon finds it. He blew off a reunion with Jon in lieu of finding the bird so it better be something big when (if) he does.  Sooooo the Lannisters are broke? Love it. How will Cersei keep up with her hair if she's on a budget? 
Nurse Jackie
I love that Jackie named her dog Slippers. So random. Kevin's getting married to Colin Sweeney from The Good Wife's new bride. Ironic right? The nicest guy and the sickest MF'er both marrying the same women on the same night in the same time slot. Has anyone acknowledged Gloria's gambling or her crazy cleavage yet? Frank really wants to move in with Jackie but now that she has something on him, a bit of a big one, he hasn't spoken to his kids in a year, she can pull the "no secrets" b.s. but...he saw her take the pills from the flashlight. This means trouble, I feel it. Not talking to your kids for a year is a pretty big deal, but lying about taking pills out of secret flashlight (or anyplace really)  is probably bigger. Stalking Kevin's new wife with your sponsor's...not normal either, Jackie. Can't believe Kevin let her off the hook SO easy.  The Good Wife

Was that a date Alicia had with Daniel from Lost (you know, the guy with the black eyeliner)? I personally thought it was a little too soon and I think Alicia did too, but she forged ahead and had a bit of a breakdown in of all people...her Mom's arms. I know Stockard Channing's had a major career, but I only see Rizzo when I look at her. Kalinda's rarely wrong, but why would Louis/Michael J. Fox want to screw Diane over so badly before he dies? I'm struggling with that one a bit. I'm also struggling with how many different pairs of boots Kalinda owns. All black I believe. I really, really like Finn but someone needs to fix that little section of hair on the right side of his head. It's totally bugging the cr*p out of me.
Orphan Black Is anyone out there listening to me and watching this show? I really need someone to be watching it! First of all as I've said it a million times already, Tatiana Maslany plays a like 7 different characters and it's mind blowing acting. Why it's not a bigger deal, I'll never know. I still don't want to give the main plot point away, but for anyone watching, here are my takeaways. Love, love, love Allison. She has a wrapping paper room, she loves her Dyson vacuum cleaner, she's super smart, great with a gun AND she's starring in the community theater production. A role she got by default after she killed (sort of) her BFF by letting her own garbage disposal choke her to death. The show must go on right? The other key takeaway, Liam from Nashville, aka Michiel Huisman, is Kyra's Dad! So that means this guy's been intimate with Connie Britton, Tatianna Maslany and I'm guessing Khaleesi from Game of Thrones too. Good year for that guy if you ask me. 
Joan & Melissa Season Finale
Pretty sure that this show is totally scripted at this point. Between Melodi and Sabrina's feud over Melodi's secret boyfriend (Al B. Sure), Melissa and Joan selling blue matzoh balls on a food truck AND Joan's antics to get Melissa to kick her out of the house, it's officially over for me. I'm done. If the show comes back next season, I won't be watching. Sad to say, but again…tough decisions need to be made with my time.
