The Hills: The Buzzed Bride
If the episode stands up to editing, it looks like Spencer manipulated Heidi by flying her to a romantic island and throwing Patrone shots down her throat. Then, he suggested marriage. She agreed. That's not to suggest that she didn't want to marry him, but most girls don't dream of stumbling down the aisle with a hangover on their wedding day.
On next week's season finale, Heidi's mom reacts. That should be interesting.
Again, I ask. How long will it be before the Speidi spin off? I'm taking bets.
Heroes: Lots of Dead Heroes
It seems a lot of heroes took their last bow. Claire lost her biological mother, the fire thrower. The fear feeder, also known as Marlo from "The Wire," was iced to death. Sylar was killed, and a few other rogue "heroes" succumbed to death in various ways. Elle and Arthur Petrelli were murdered last week. So, only the original Petrellis, Hiro, Ando, Mohinder, Tracy, Parkman and Daphne seem to be left? Am I missing anybody. The list is getting shorter.
Yes, Hiro did survive. The last episode had him hanging on a ledge. He pulled himself to safety, but was almost sliced to death by his father. Is it me or is Hiro starting to remind you of Charlie Brown. Whenever he tries to do something, I end up thinking, "Good Grief." Please, help this wayward hero get himself together! I can't take it anymore. I'm expecting a girl dressed in blue to pull a football from him any second now.
The next season's preview promises more darkness. The heroes will be hunted and captures. Oh, joy!
Will you watch, or have you had it with these heroes?

The Hills: Reconciliation
While Audrina worked on fixing her relationship with Lauren, Stephanie worked on improving her relationship with her grandmother, who clearly prefers Spencer over Stephanie. I believe grandmom and Heidi are the only two people in the world of this opinion. Stephanie decides she'll try to be closer to her grandmother despite granny's favoritism. I do think granny and Spencer have a lot in common.
I, for one, am ready for this season to end. I would like for Holly and Heidi to patch things up for the finale, but I'm not holding my breath. I'd also like some resolution to the Audrina and Justin drama. What do you think? How will the season end?
Heroes: Total Eclipse of the Sun, Part 2
Unfortunately for Mohinder, the end of the eclipse also brought back his scales. Will viewers be forced to see him turned into the Fly for the remainder of the season? I sure hope not. It's an unnecessary sidebar to the main story line, if you ask me. Why they felt the need to disfigure one of the favorite and most attractive characters on the show, I do not know.
So, where is this season going? I think the heroes are still trying to prevent the synthetic mutation serum. I'm unsure, but maybe that will become clear by the season finale.
What do you think? Where is this all going?

Real Housewives of Atlanta: Top Reunion Moments
There were several great moments from the show, but here are my top five:
1. Kim's Cancer Lie. The woman who smokes a pack of cigarettes/day tearfully admits she had cancer. Then, retracts that statement five minutes later, proving Lisa right. Kim's a liar.
2. NeNe vs. Kim. Where to begin? I think it's safe to say this friendship is officially over. Kim calls NeNe a bitch, and Lisa has to sit on NeNe's lap to keep her from exacting revenge on her ex-friend. Oh, and NeNe reiterates that Kim can't sing. LOL.
3. Lisa vs. Kim. Kim claims that Lisa is the one who first told her about NeNe mocking her singing skills. Lisa denies it, and when Kim persists. Lisa threatens to flip her over the couch. I'd like to see that.
4. Dwight. Anybody strolling out with that fly curly weave has to make the top five. Oh, and his comments on Kim's hair earn him a spot, too.
5. Big Poppa. He didn't make an appearance, but he was mentioned. It turns out he's married, and while Kim thinks he'll leave his wife, NeNe has this advice, "Close your legs to married men." Nice.
So, what were your Top 5 moments of the reunion or the season!? Will there be a season two?
The Hills: Audrina's Drama
Audrina's trippin.' She hears a rumor that Justin and Lauren hooked up, and she actually entertains the thought. I'll let you read that sentence again and let it sink in 'cause it's not a misprint.
Audrina actually believes that Justin and Lauren had a fling. She confronts both of the accused, and both vehemently deny any wrongdoing. As a matter of fact, they're bot insulted. Lauren compares Audrina to Heidi and clarifies her true feelings for Justin, so there's no misunderstanding. "I think he's disgusting." There!
Lauren had a right to be insulted. She has been a great and loyal friend to Audrina. She seems to be a true believer in "treat others the way you want to be treated." So, the idea that she would stab Audrina in the back by hooking up with Justin is "laughable," as Lo put it. As a result of the rumor, Audrina might just end up without a boyfriend or a best friend. Awful.
In other news, Spencer alienates Holly even more. Heidi's sis comes to visit, and Spencer makes it clear that Heidi doesn't want to see Holly, but Spencer says he'll give Heidi Holly's message. Later, Holly visits her sis at work, and Heidi's stunned to find out that her Spencer never relayed Holly's message.
I guess she should be referred to as Mrs. Pratt. Word has it Heidi and Spencer are married now. Crazy.
Did you watch? Should Lauren forgive Audrina? Is it at all possible that Justin and Lauren did hook up? Now that she's married, will the world ever see Heidi again?
Heroes: Finally Living in the Present
The latest episode of "Heroes" chronicled just one day in the lives of the characters. There weren't storylines happening in the past and folks having dreams set in the future. I almost enjoyed it.
An eclipse strips the superhumans of their powers. The Petrelli boys fall from the sky mid-flight. Claire tries to stop a bullet with her body, only to end up in the hospital. Hiro, Ando and Parkman end up stuck in Smallville thanks to one of Hiro's ill-timed blinks.
In the meantime, Sylar and Elle are connecting romantically. If that's good news, than Mohinder's new is phenomenal. He's apparently lost his slimy scales and huge, nasty skin boils. Eclipses don't last forever, so what happens to the heroes and villains after the sun and moon separate is any one's guess.
What do you think? Will these regular, ol' humans get their powers back? Will Mohinder remain free of scales? Where was Nathan dragged off to? What's wrong with Daphne's legs, and why is Hiro 10? I'm pretty sure I missed something there.

Celebreality Gone Bad
Two new reality shows, featuring celebrities, recently premiered. I already commented on the Coolio show on Oxygen. WTH? That's about as random as Billy Graham on Cartoon Network.
Last week was the premiere of 50 Cent's new show on MTV. It's basically "I Want to Work for Diddy," starring 50 as Donald Trump. Wait. I mean, it's like "The Apprentice" with Diddy. I'm confused.
Anyway, in honor of these horrible reality mishaps, here's my list of the Top 10 celebrities who never should have had shows. The ratings support my findings, but even if it was a highly-rated show, I think you'll agree. Here's my list:
1. 50 Cent - "The Money and the Power"
2. Coolio - "Coolio's Rules"
3. Tyson Beckford - "Make Me a Supermodel"
4. Paris Hilton - "Simple Life"
5. Flavor Flav - "Flavor of Love" and "Surreal Life"
6. Bobby Brown - "Being Bobby Brown"
7. Ozzy and Sharon - "The Osbournes"
8. Martha Stewart - "The Apprentice"
9. Snoop Dogg - "Fatherhood"
10. Mr. T - "I Pity the Fool"
If you didn't know that these folks ever had reality shows, you're lucky.
So, which shows top your list of reality shows that should have never been greenlit?

Real Housewives of ATL: Low Budget What?
I think DeShawn is the one who told Sheree, and Sheree was more than happy to tell Kim; I think. So, Kim retaliated by snubbing NeNe at some lingerie place and then sending her a ghetto-fabulous text in which Kim called NeNe a cheap dog, but not that nicely.
Although I don't think NeNe should have been joking on Kim's skills, I do have to agree that Kim cannot sing. She apparently smokes a pack a day, and is tone deaf, but for some reason she feels she's ready to record an album. NeNe was right to tell her friend the truth, but she could have handled it more maturely, and she should have realized that was a sensitive area for her friend, not fodder for teasing.
So, where does that leave the girls? NeNe's on the outs and stuck with DeShawn. Kim and Sheree are best buds, and Lisa is still about her business.
Will Kim and NeNe reconcile? Will Kim make an album, or will luck smile on us? What do you think?

The Hills: Empty Words
Much to Spencer's disappointment, I'm sure, the two fellas did not so much as speak to one another. However, for Stephanie's new fella this may mean it's over before it starts. Her brother has her convinced that any decent fellow would have challenged Brody to a duel and avenged Stephanie for something that happened weeks earlier. He did say that he would confront Brody, and I think that's where he messed up. It's not a big deal that he didn't say anything to Brody. That was the mature move, but he seems like he punked out by not doing what he said he would. Will she break up with the new guy? Probably.
While Stephanie contemplates breaking up, it seems Audrina and JB may be making things official. Was his "I want to be with you" some sort of commitment? Can he stick to it? Can he treat Audrina the way she deserves? I won't be negative. We'll just have to wait and see. Hopefully, he can back up his words better than Stephanie's boyfriend.

The Hills: The Ultimatum
Audrina is playing the field and meeting some really nice guys, but it seems her heart is still with Justin Bobby. Isn't that always the way? He ruins a sultry evening with Audrina and proves that he's not just a jerk, but he's an idiot. The two are in the pool nearly naked, and he decides to assert his freedom and remind her that he's free to date other people. Ummm. OK. His timing seemed awkward to me, but I understand little about men, so whatever...
Spencer is a man few people understand. As a matter of fact, Heidi may be the only one to have unlocked that mystery, which may be why he holds on so tightly to his lady love. After weeks of living with Heidi and Holly, Spencer decides to give his girlfriend an ultimatum. Someone's leaving the house, and if it's not Holly, Spencer will oblige.
Of course, Heidi caves and basically kicks her sister out of the house. Where will homeless Holly end up? My guess is she will reach out to Lauren, but we'll see.
What did you think of Spencer's ultimatum? Was it necessary? Was Holly mooching? Do you find Spencer scary possessive of Heidi? Should Audrina make it work with JB or move on with a more attentive dude?

Desperate Housewives: Quantum Leap Season Premiere
- Gabby has two kids now (One who's very overweight.), and isn't quite as glamorous as we remember.
- Susan and Mike have split.
- Edie's back with a new husband, who's a bit controlling and has a past.
- Bree is back with Orson. Her daughter now has custody of Bree's grandson, and her catering company is her "baby."
- Lynette's boys are old enough to drive!
I think Edie's new husband will bring some great drama, and I am actually interested to see what happens to Susan and Mike. I never thought I'd say that. The ladies all seem in a bit of a funk right now. Hopefully, things will improve as the season progresses?
What do you think? Were you OK with the acceleration of the characters?
