The Hills: Spiraling Toward the Spin Off

"The Hills" began with Lauren meeting Whitney. Now, it's time to bid farewell to Whit. She's packing up and moving away from California and away from Lauren. However, it doesn't look like she'll be alone. She's got new friendships to look forward to. One particular dark and handsome fellow steals some smooches with Whit before she quickly heads back to California. Will we be seeing more of him on "The City"? I think so. He has a bit of a Justin Bobby thing going on, but for Whitney's sake, I hope similarities end with the mussed up hair.

In the same old news, Spencer continues to criticize Stephanie's choice in a man. Isn't that ironic? I'm surprised that Stephanie listens to her bone head brother at all. She can't possibly respect his opinion that much. Can she?

What do you think? Is Spencer looking out for his sister's best interest, or just being a jerk? Will Whitney's romance with the New Yorker continue? What will happen to Lauren and "The Hills"?

Heroes: Papa Petrelli Dead?!

Sylar's a bad guy again, and although I'm no supporter of evil, I'm glad he's not giving me cavities anymore. Last week, he killed his lover Elle. This week, he killed Papa Petrelli after finding out that he was not the brother of Nathan and Peter. I wonder if he was more upset about not being a Petrelli or about being lied to and used? Either way, it ended badly for the leader of "those with abilities."

Right before his death, Papa Petrelli added the catalyst to Mohinder's formula. Supposedly, this will give regular folks a chance to have powers, and hopefully, it will reverse whatever Mohinder did to himself. When the formula is tried on a former 4400, it works well, and he starts throwing chairs through glass to show his strength.

I wish Hiro could show some of that strength. It was nice to see him reunited with his mother -- if only briefly; however, it was sort of pathetic to see him persuade his mother to give him the catalyst and then lose it not an hour later! He told her he would protect it, but that's not exactly what went down. Hiro ended up hanging off a building from a flag pole. I need for him to get it together. Part of his charm was knowing Hiro was going to become a Jedi master. What happened? When does that kick in?

What do you think? Will Mohinder be cute again? Will Hiro ever get it together? Is Papa Petrelli really dead? Will Sylar ever go good again? Will the formula work this time, or will the heroes need to save the world from the monsters they create?

Bromance!

MTV is taking a page out of the VH1 Celebreality book, and extending the "Laguna" franchise as far as the universe will allow -- or at least from the West Coast to the East. From "Laguna," came "The Hills." Now, "The Hills" is spinning off "The City," featuring Whitney in NYC, and "Bromance," where Lauren's former crush Brody tries to find a new friend to replace Spencer. I guess it's like Paris' BFF show without all the pink. Nine guys compete for the honor of partying, vacationing and drinking with Brody.

Check out the trailer.

A great after show would be to have Spencer comment on each episode of "Bromance" after it airs. What does Spencer think of his potential replacements? Speaking of which, how far are we from a new "Newlyweds" series featuring Speidi?

Will you watch "Bromance"? Are you glad "Laguna" is living on, or is enough enough already?

The Hills: Reconciliation

So, it was no big surprise that Audrina and Lauren made up on the latest episode. Audrina sincerely apologized, and in the process, she revealed that she wasn't happy with the person she'd become while dating Justin. Will she break things off with him? I'm doubting it.

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

So, as we all predicted, the heroes' powers returned once the eclipse ended. Claire healed herself after being split open. This would make the second time she's come alive after such a procedure. Nathan can fly again. Daphne's running once more. Hiro's time traveling, and Sylar is back to splitting skulls. That's bad news for Elle, who became a victim of the monster she helped create.

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

That was entertainment. I have to admit I'm going to miss Lisa, Sheree, Kim and NeNe. Those ladies gave me a reason to turn on the tube Tuesday nights, and they also made me feel better about my ever-decreasing bank account. If money will turn me into one of them, I'd rather be poor.

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?
