Monday Night TV....and then some.

Jan 19, 2009 22:22

I've been really behind lately. I didn't write about Smallville, I haven't responded to comments.....I apologize for all of that. I had to put my nearly 17-year-old cat to sleep at the end of last week, which was really rough. I had him since I was 11 years old and, as corny as it sounds, he really was one of the best friends a human could have ( Read more... )

I'm so sorry about your cat, that is so incredibly hard. :(

Thank you so much. It's been a rough road, even if I knew that it was coming. I just keep trying to remind myself that it's what was best for him, even if it depressed me to no end.

I totally agreed with Chuck that it was disrespectful for Lily was already parading Rufus around in what was, as you pointed out, Bart's world. That said, I loved loved LOVED both their scheming and their tentative building of family bridges. It was so much more satisfying to have Chuck rescue Lily than to just have Rufus and his increasingly floppy hair do the job. Ed Westwick can work a determined strut like nobody's business, and it was way hot when he decked Uncle Jack. Mmm. And, hi, symbolism, nice to see you wandering around, with all your "the attempted date rapist from the pilot comes full circle by stopping an attempted rape." Good redemptive times to be had by all.

Dan and Serena are still dullsville, Ms. Carr is too stupid for words, and are they really going to go there with the student-teacher inappropriateness? 'Cause Dan Humphrey? Is no Pacey Witter.

Plus, okay, it's YALE. Do they really only have room for one student from Constance? And would they really choose Serena? And issue an effing press release? ( ... )

It was one thing for Lily to immediately move on to Rufus, but okay. Fine. But to flaunt it in everyone's faces? She said herself that Bart was not a bad guy....so why disrespect him like that? I don't expect her to be in mourning for the rest of her life, but come on, don't spit on his grave.

I am ALWAYS okay with Westwick's determined strut.

I do indeed think they are going "there" with the teacher/student inappropriateness. I don't really hate Ms. Carr at this point, but I do feel that this story is coming from a mile away and....yawn.

Eric and Dorota are, by far, my favorites. Any scene is made better with them in it.

And yes, even if Nate is getting throwaway stories, I'm still okay with just watching Chace Crawford.

Hey, welcome! :)

I LOVED Eric giving Rufus lessons on how to deal with the elite. Hee! He's so fun.

"Crash Jack in plane" was great simply because of Lily's deadpan "The Bass jet is expensive, Chuck." Is it bad that I kind of enjoy Lily more with Chuck than with Rufus (and not in a gross way)? Then again, the morning scene with her "sneaking" Rufus downstairs was fairly amusing.

Man, I can't imagine that Blair would really have her hopes crushed, at least permanently. It's BLAIR. I have utter faith that she will find SOME way to get into Yale, come hell or high water.
