Hope all you Zombie fans were happy to have your fave show, The Walking Dead back...you know the only Zombies I watch are the ones in the video game, Plants vs. Zombies. That bucketheaded Zombie...tough to kill.
Real Housewives of NJ Reunion Part 2
All of the housewives, the Joe's, and Rosie were back on the couch for the 2nd part of the reunion. I can't even imagine what the taping of those reunion shows must be like. I hear they go on all day, and while I'm guessing they don't serve cocktails during the taping, the cast must need one the second it's over. So much emotion, so much drama, so much denial, so much stupidity. Here's what I learned:
1) Rosie smoked and quit and had been working out with Joe Giudice for 3 months.
2) Rosie and her sister love each other a little too much if you ask me.
3) Everyone had regrets about things they've said on the show...really? Shocker
4) Teresa STILL doesn't know what a sociopath is.
5) Teresa doesn't believe in Karma because she's catholic. I have no idea what that means.
6) Teresa hears but she doesn't listen
7) On the day that Albert's dad died he still went and picked up a gift for Caroline, his then fiance, for her birthday and apologized to her that his dad's death ruined her day. Can you say THERAPY?
8) I think Caroline's father-in-law WAS killed by the mafia even though Caroline and Albert claim they have no idea who killed him and why.
9) Every one's scared that Joe Giudice is really going to jail
10) I had forgotten that Teresa is friends with Victoria Gotti
Just when I thought I would have a break from these women and this season...Another RHONJ special "Tell All" airs tonight. Shoot me. I don't want to watch it...but YOU KNOW I WILL!
Homeland
Does anyone think that maybe Homeland should have been a miniseries at this point? I have to remind myself that season 1 was brilliant. Season two wasn't brilliant, but it was good. These first 3 weeks of season 3 are sucking so far. You know it's bad when our only pleasure has been Carrie's med-less freak outs. This week, Brody finally showed up...okay so he's in Venezuela, but he and Carrie are living these oddly parallel lives of nothingness. They're both trapped in sucky places and forced to take drugs to get themselves through the day. At the end of the hour I was actually pissed off that I didn't chose to watch Revenge live and save Homeland for later. C'mon guys...you're killing me!
NEWS & INFORMATION
-Who knows what the truth is? Was Charlie Hunnam, Sons of Anarchy's Jax Teller, really having scheduling conflicts? Was he turned off by all the attention? Let go because everyone online, who had no idea who he was, wanted him booted? I don't really know, but as a HUGE fan of his, I was really looking forward to him taking on Christian Grey, so I am bummed about this news. Of course if Ian Sommerhalder ends up taking the job, I'll be over my bummed-ness really fast.
-More good news for JLo...ABC Family renewed her show, The Fosters for another season. She's gotta be really busy these days, like Ryan Seacrest busy. American Idol Judge, singer, producer, fashion icon, and mother of twins. I bet she doesn't have time to watch Real Housewives of NJ right?
-Bill Weir's leaving ABC and Nightline for CNN as anchor and Chief Innovation Correspondent. Love the new title, Chief Innovation Correspondent. Dan Harris will be taking Bill's place on Nightline as just plain old...anchor.
-6 more eps for Dads...I'm actually a bit surprised by this one. Ratings wise the show's not that strong and there's been a ton of negative press about its offensiveness, so I didn't think it would make it. I guess since it's a Seth McFarlane show, FOX needs to keep the guy happy.
-The CW has asked for 3 more episodes from 3 of its freshman shows: Tomorrow People, The Originals and Reign. Reign premieres on Thursday and of all the pilots I watched over the Summer, Reign was my favorite. Think of it as as Downton Abbey but sexier, lighter and cooler. I loved this one and hope it does really well. We'll find out soon enough.
-Not good news for FOX's Us & Them only 6 eps and done, sort of bummed I liked this one. It had Alexis Bledel and Jason Ritter...how could it be bad? Supposedly the scripts have been sucking, but can't they just get some new writers?
-Teen Wolf was renewed by MTV for a 4th season. Michael J. Fox and Jason Bateman should make guest appearances in season 4...that would be cool right?
-If you're a Hawaii Five - 0 fan, you are probably already aware that you can help to build an entire episode of the show. Starting on Friday night, fans were invited to go to http://www.cbs.com/H50vote to choose key story points. Voting closes on Halloween. In 2014 fans will still be able to weigh in on things like props and music. I'm not sure when the final episode will air but as soon as I find out, I'll let you guys know. It's a cool concept though and I bet we see more and more of this.
