Real Housewives of New Jersey-Part 1
I keep typing it, I do. I keep saying that something is wrong with me for not only tuning in to Real Housewives of NJ every week, but RUNNING to the TV for it. I can't miss it and yet...when I watch it, I get so angry and disgusted with the Manzo's, the Giudice's, the Gorga's and myself that I should change the channel and cancel the season pass, but I don't. Do these people take the time to watch themselves on this show? I don't think so, especially not The Giudice's. Sure they have 4 daughters and 39 counts against them, so I get that they're busy, but I honestly think they should tune in once in a while. They're definitely not enrolled in an English as a first language class, that's for sure. If they were, they must have flunked out. This seasons reunion took place at The Venetian in lovely Garfield NJ. Teresa was overdone compared to the rest of the woman but would you expect anything less? It makes complete sense that the couple with 39 counts of fraud and other illegal activities were the ones dressed to the nines. I thought Kathy looked really good. I doubt that ring she was wearing was real, but she looked really good anyway. The bulk of the show had Teresa and Melissa still going at it. They claimed that they were all in a good place by the seasons end, but it was obvious that they aren't. They admitted that they haven't seen each other all Summer. Teresa, to this day still takes no responsibility for anything she's done and still blames Melissa for everything. Joe Giudice rarely spoke but when he did, the things that came out of his mouth were so unbelievably stupid that it's gotta be an act, if it's not and that guy made enough money to buy that mansion and those cars and everything else, then I'm DEFINITELY doing something wrong. Andy brought up Jaqueline and Caroline's relationship with Dina and they both looked at each other not knowing how to respond. Aren't you dying to know what went on there? Joe Gorga bagged the hat and the hair and he looks MUCH better. Didn't need to see Jaqueline's fatty cutlets from her tummy tuck again, but Andy had to remind us yet again about them. Dr. V. showed up and offered some thoughts, but of course its wasted on this crew. Rosie was in the house sporting a set of pearls which really made me laugh out loud. She's the only real one on the show and yet she put on pearls? UGH. It pains me to say that I'll be back for part 2 next week...but I'll be there.
Revenge
So let me get this straight, Daniel read an issue of Voile or Vogue or whatever fashion magazine Margo, the chick from Pan Am, owns, doesn't sleep with her (although we thought he did for a commercial break) and is named its new publisher? With zero experience in the fashion world or publishing? Wow if that isn't a case of knowing the right people, then I don't know what is. Also, is it me or is Daniel speaking differently this season? I feel like I can hear his accent. So let me get this straight, Paul Whitley used to work for the Graysons, then he was a priest at St. Francis helping a bunch of people, but keeping tabs on the Grayson's so much so, that he knew Daniel the second he met him, and knew that Conrad was JUST diagnosed with Huntington's Disease? Quite a priest right? Well, he's gone, thanks to Emily and her red Revenge sharpie, which is back to work in full forces this season. Just when Conrad needed a priest, Father Paul's outta there. Loved Nolan's "Blurred Lines" apron with the cherry red pants. I guess he'd like Robin Thicke to stop by instead of the nameless dudes that he keeps having over for some fun. Add Charlotte to the list of Emily haters, she's pissed off at her for opening her big fat yap, but she really didn't do the damage this time. It will just make the shooting at the end of the season that much more interesting. I mean the list is getting longer and longer by the week and we are only 2 weeks in.
I was pretty sick all weekend. Got hit with what I am pretty sure was strep throat. Luckily I got a Zpack in me on Saturday at 9:04am but I didn't start feeling better til mid day Sunday. The good news for a person like me was that I caught up on some movies I'd been needing to see, plus, a bunch of shows I couldn't get to last week. I did manage to watch Saturday Night Live on Sunday AM and I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. Miley was GOOD and some of the new cast was good too. I guess they didn't get my Gene Simmons Rock-N-Roll Tongue School idea, but it was late in the week, so didn't think it could make it in. New guy Jay Pharoah did an awesome Will Smith and Shannon Sharpe. Anyway if you didn't see SNL, this is the video going around and...it's good regardless of your politics.

NEWS & INFORMATION
-David Letterman's not letting the Jimmy's scare him into retirement. Dave's signed on through 2015 stayin on at 11:30pm. I wonder if CBS is just buying time til they can find another Jimmy for their 1130 spot. Jimmy Smits maybe or Jimmy Buffett? Is there another funny Jimmy? Jimmy J.J. Walker? He's alive, I checked. -WOW...that was FAST. Lucky 7 is officially the first primetime casualty of the 2013/2014 TV season. After only 2 episodes...it's GONE! Not so lucky at all. -No surprise at all to me...NBC's Blacklist was given a full season order. Spader rules. He also now has a new record under his belt. Biggest live +3 day lift in viewership. Episode 2 increased by 5 MILLION viewers when it went from live to live +3, bringing total viewership to 16.4 million viewers. That was a 45% increase! Look out NCIS! -The Simpsons was just greenlit for a 26th season. The scary thing is, I remember when it was just a part of the Tracey Ullman show. Even scarier I remember being a local spot buyer and WRITING it on my buy sheets. Now that's depressing. -I mentioned a few weeks ago that I was stuck on level 147 of Candy Crush Saga. I learned that a lot of you guys are not only playing, but that you were stuck on some level also. After a month, I finally got passed level 147 and am now on level 167 (what's with the "7" levels?) Anyway, I saw a cute Candy Crush Infographic and had to share some of the info from it:
- 61.7% of Candy Crush players believe that luck is the win factor
- 58.4% of Candy Crush players have never spent a cent (I haven't)
- 20% of Candy Crush players have spent between $1-$10
- 16.4% of Candy Crush players have spent between $11-$100
- 3.5% of Candy Crush players have spent between $101-$1000 (WHAT? THATS NUTS)
- Candy Crush's daily revenue is $633,000
- There are 45.6 MILLION Facebook Candy Crushers per month
- There are 9.7 MILLION Facebook Candy Crushers per day
- 21.3% prefer the Objectives levels
- 46% have declared level 65 as the evillest level (I don't even remember which one that is)
- Right now there are 455 Candy Crush levels
- There are 9 billion Candy Crush games played per month.
