THE SHOWS How I Met Your Mother
Only 60 minutes left...that's it. Did I feel this way when Friends ended? I don't remember. I think I might have. Anyway, lots of cheesy sentimentality during last nights penultimate episode of How I Met Your Mother. (OMG...did I just use penultimate correctly?)  The good news is that after Barney freaked out about 1) his vows, 2) Marshall and Lily's inability to keep theirs, and 3) his choice for a dark blue tie instead of the cornflower blue tie, he made it to the church on time where he freaked out again about the tie and Marshall slapped him with the 5th and final slap.  Robin freaked out, got her locket back, questioned Ted over Barney, ran for the hills, knocked over Mom, and took 3 deep breaths, but she too made it to the church on time. Barney vowed to tell the truth and that included that it was Ted and not him who found her locket.  He was still Barney though, he did get an actual ring BEAR.  I was kinda hoping he would do that.  I sort of wondered who all those people were at the wedding since our pals didn't really spend any time with any of them over the past 9 years. I mean other than Lily, Robin's only bridesmaid was Patrice?  One thing I have to mention. I know I always focus on this stuff, but I'm pretty sure that you could see Robin's nipples through her wedding dress. Am I crazy? Go back and freeze frame it. I think I'm right.  
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Reunion-Part 2
More of the same old same old. Lots of yelling, lots of fighting, lots of disrespect. I gotta give Lisa credit though, these women all went after her and she remained pretty calm and never really got rattled. Kim's just an emotional bipolar wreck. The Kyle/Carlton thing is so weird, I don't even know how anyone can just not like Kyle, I mean she's harmless. Loved the airquotes when Andy referred to Carlton's "witchcraft."  I'm still not sure I understood her explanation at all. She's ridiculous and scary in every way. One more week of them and finally a Real Housewives break for me. I'm ready.  
Dallas
Some great advice from grandma..."A whore who gives without receiving is not just a whore but a fool." Judith Light is scarier and meaner than J.R. ever was. She's the best new villain out there. I know John Ross is trying to be better (and worse) than his dad, but he's just too pretty and trying too hard. Between Emma, her grandma and his own Mom who totally screwed him that boy better look out. Sue Ellen maybe be hitting the flask but she's still able to blackmail with the best of um. Didn't see the railroad commissioner thing coming at all. Brilliant move. I really need Christopher to dump Anna Lyn McCord and now that he knows she has a kid and ex-husband he really needs to run fast or it's only going to get worse.

-ABC didn't waste much time naming Anne Sweeney's replacement...Ben Sherwood, ABC News President will be taking the helm. Congrats to Ben who's pretty much responsible for turning GMA around and taking over the number one spot in early morning news. What I also learned about Ben is that he wrote Charlie St. Cloud the book that the Zac Efron movie was based on
