These aren't all the shows I'm watching, just the ones I started thinking of while writing the post. Some are more than a few paragraphs (hello, TBBT) while others are a line or two (TAR, I still love you, though!) So read on ...

I'm glad you posted on BBT, because...I kind of love Amy now, too! It started with the "Shamy" when Penny went out to dinner with them. She and Sheldon are hysterical. I don't see any romantic chemistry between them whatsoever, but they play off each other nicely. And it's nice to see Bernadette again! :)

(Thought Leonard had pretty decent chemistry with Raj's sister...ITA that bringing up L/P let the air out of the ep. Because...she hasn't really been hanging around them that much, IIRC. I don't understand why the show continues to go there either -- especially when it's proved it can be absolutely hilarious when it doesn't go there [21 seconds...c'mon! That's awesome! ;p ])

And I love Survivor this season, too! I...pretty much echo everything you said: Brenda, Jane and Fabio are great -- so glad Marty is gone! I'm loving how Brenda is the Queen Bee, and is genuinely pleasant to everyone and how nobody really knows who is in her alliance! And I don't haaaaate NaOnka either -- she's just...entertainment. I didn't care for when she ( ... )

Michelle Rauch is so fantastic in this role. I liked her on TB, but she was written to be annoying, so it was hard to root for her beyond my Bernadette-love, but oh, Bernadette is so adorable, I just want to squeeze her. Love her to bits. And Amy is a total gas. There's NOTHING romantic with her and Sheldon, and they've differentiated between them enough, that there's a nice foil ( ... )

Oooh, I want our Olivia back with Peter and her team, too. So much. Although I want her to grab hold of AU!Charlie and Lincoln and bring them with her when she comes, as I really like the dynamic there and will miss it. Fringe has been ridiculously awesome this season. (And how awesome is it that you can totally tell which Olivia it is, and not just because of hair color? Anna Torv is just amazing.)

I'm really gaining a greater appreciation for Anna Torv (not that I didn't think she was great before), she's done a fabulous job at differentiating between the two. Our Olivia, I adore. FOlivia can go jump in a lake. Bah!

I want her to grab hold of AU!Charlie and Lincoln and bring them with her when she comes, as I really like the dynamic there and will miss it.

YES!! THIIIISS!! PLEASE!!! I WANT! And Lincoln and Astrid can hook up. Yes. This must happen now.

Fringe has been ridiculously awesome this season.

I couldn't agree more. From "Jacksonville" on, they've been hitting it EVERY SINGLE EPISODE. (Prior to that episode, the show was good, but it didn't hold me captive like it does now.)

This. Although it didn't really hit me until this season, but yes. Liked it well enough, but wasn't hooked. Now? Hooked.

Right, it didn't become one of my favorite shows until "Jacksonville" even though it was good before. Now, definitely hooked. :D

that is awesome that Will actually tweeted those tweets!
I really wish they would stop with the Leonard/Penny that relationship is boring and un-interesting
I love Bernadette, not sold on Amy yet but we shall see!

As soon as Sheldon read the first one, I was like 'Oh, man, I've got to check his Twitter feed, I bet he totally posted those!' and sure enough, he did. Hah!

Leonard and Penny remain, in my opinion, the single worst canon pairing in the history of television. And I do not say this lightly. I sat through Duncan and Veronica of Veronica Mars.

Bernadette = love. I dunno, if Amy hasn't won you over yet, she may not ever. Is sad. :(

Community -- I take the shipper stuff as it goes by. I hate to admit about the J/B crap they've been pulling recently but to me they've been forced and blah. I loved how much chemistry Jeff and Annie just filled the room with. TENSION, GOD DAMN. I didn't care that Britta was there, we all know she just annoyingly there. Whoa, the stripping, my God. (You got to admit that was hot even if he called her a bitch, which I hate to say it was hysterical to me because of the delivery of it and what happened after. I do hate guys calling me it but yeah... I'm being whatever about it) The look that Pierce gave when Annie and Jeff start to strip I couldn't stop laughing my ass off. That ol' horn dog. Then when Britta started. I wanted to just punch her in the nose for getting in the way of my J/A at that moment.

TBBT -- Okay I thought I was the only one loving Amy just a bit. "Pillow fight!" delivery was hysterical to me. XD I love Wil Wheaton ever since Stand By Me so what goes to show, I love every episode he's in. Those tweets are ever so ( ... )

I may have to rewatch Community honestly, I was NOT in the best frame of mind that day and so that might be why I wasn't as swayed as everyone else was.

Re: BBT, yes, I love Amy, yes, I hate the L/P, yes, I ADORED the Sheldon/Penny convo last week. It was FANTASTIC! Probably one of their best scenes ever, and that's saying a lot.

Kurt Warner was quite the gentleman. I enjoyed his dancing more than Rick Fox. Bristol's fan base amuses me. I have nothing against her personally, but she isn't the greatest dancer, so I don't know why she's still in it. I want Maks to win as well, but once again Carrie Ann is pushing for Derek. She's such a fricken' fangirl. Derek could be paired with a chimpanzee and Carrie Ann would be all over him. *rollseyes*

Castle is awesome. Nuff said. And I'm happy for Nathan that he finally has a show that's doing so well. TPTB just ordered two more episodes for the season!

He was such a gentleman, and so very charming. I loved him so. :)

Yes, this! And I'd be in seventh heaven if Summer Glau ever guest-starred. :)
