What we watched "live" - The Kids Are All Right (Movie)
What we PVR'd for later -Nothing
Thoughts:
The Kids Are All Right - Not a bad movie, tended to drag a bit. Julianne Moore is still hot at 51. Annette Bening is only 3 years older? Would not have thought that. Yaya DaCosta looked great on screen, first time I had seen her in anyhting. 3 stars out of 5. IMDB

What we watched from PVR - Modern Family, Cougar Town, Desperate Housewives
What we watched "live" - Nothing
What we PVR'd for later -Nothing
Thoughts:
Modern Family - Phil pretending to be Gloria's husband was hilarious. Especially because we know she buckles his knees all the time. Jay's birthday and he gets no gifts, what a rip! Manny with the boat in the pool was a very thoughtful gift that no kid would ever think of, would they?
Cougar Town - An hour! Going to Hawaii. Jules and Grayson with the fight over wanting babies, and then make up and it seems like there may be babies in the future? Funny that the rumour is they are dating in real life. Bobby as Andy and Ellie's surrogate was funny too. Ted from Scrubs as Ted was hilarious!
Desperate Housewives - 2 hours! Jeesh, and to think I wanted this to be cancelled. Oh well, we find out who the stranger is that is following Gaby. Her step-dad who abused her as a teen. She threatens him with a gun, and then Carlos whacks him. Tom leaves Lynnette, Brie sleeps with the cop. The roaming party is a great idea. Lots of prep time though... The four main ladies and Carlos hide the body and everyone is happy again.

What we watched from PVR - Body of Proof, Happy Endings X2, Big Bang Theory, Rules of Engagement, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Glee
What we watched "live" - Nothing
What we PVR'd for later - Nothing
Thoughts:
BoP - Meghan finds out that her ex in sleeping with her boss, and finds this out from her daughter. Cell pics on her daughter's phone also lead her to a very corrupt family, with the brother (thought he did it) being the only one not dead or in jail!
Happy Endings -See previous blog post. Hopefully the out of sync episodes won't ruin ratings!
BBT - Wow, everything goes to pot! Leonard and Priya split, because she's going back to India. Howard and Bernadette are on the outs. Raj sleeps with Penny!! Sheldon is ...well.... Sheldon.
RoE - Russell ends up on a Red Hat Cruise, is having fun and ends up running into Liz. Jeff and Audrey have a big argument while staying at Russell's and are able to review it because Timmy tells them about the cameras everywhere. Adam and Jennifer have sex in the freshly painted apartment and paint gets places it shouldn't...
Grey's - What a letdown of a finale! April as chief resident? Alex getting black-balled by everyone. Meredith suspended. Christina preggers (I'm sure the tally of preggers on finales this season must be in the hundreds), and Meredith gets the baby just as Derek leaves her? Teddy sticking around for her "husband" was nice though. Better be better next season...
Private Practice - Charlotte has to deal with a rape victim, and she sort of tells her that she is also a survivor. Violet leaves on book tour, and Pete is not happy about it. Of course not, she is abandoning him again with Lucas. Addison sleeps with Sam again after they decide to re-boot the practice, but she was spending the whole show with Benjamin Bratt. Naomi is gone, but we knew that. Pete has a heart attack after he tells Violet to go! Chances are she comes back to get her keys or something at the start of next season.
Glee - New York and the Nationals. Of course they don't have a song ready...or even written. They spend their time visiting broadway and such. The duet between Rachel and Kurt from Wicked is good, but the rest of the songs weren't. Not a lot of drama, but Finn-Chel is back on. Shocker - they don't win. In fact, finish 12th.

What we watched "live" - Bruins Game 7
What we PVR'd for later -Nothing
Thoughts:
Happy Endings - I have no idea which episode this was, but I know they then started to show these in the wrong order. The last two of so happened shortly after the first episode and the Alex and Dave awkwardness was not yet over.
Bruins Game - Going to the Finals!! First one since Bourque, Neely and Moog were the team. Possible cup, first one in my lifetime. Bruins in 6?

What we watched "live" - Nothing
What we PVR'd for later - Nothing
Thoughts:
H5-0: Even though I knew exactly where this finale was going, it was still fun to watch it develop. The Gov was in cahoots with Wo Fat, saw that coming, but I didn't see him shooting her and pinning it on Steve. 5-0 getting disbanded and Kono wiping the drives and getting arrested too. Chin re-upping with the HPD, and Danny is the only one that can maybe save them all! If he doesn't flee to Jersey with his wife and kid. Can't wait for next season.

What we watched "live" - Nothing
What we PVR'd for later - Glee
Thoughts
HIMYM - Season Finale, and we get psyched out by Ted with the random blonde in the coffee place. At least Zoey is out of the picture. Lilly is preggers, and the wedding we keep seeing is Barney, but is he marrying Robin or the other one? The fact I call her the other one is not really endearing of her character, is it?
Mike & Molly - It's all about marriage. It seems like they would be breaking up, but in the end he proposes in her classroom, and Carl is all emotional. All the characters are together then and Molly asks Mike when he bought the ring...about two weeks after they met. Nice!!

What we watched "live" - Bruins-Lightning Game 5
What we PVR'd for later - Nothing
Thoughts:
Bones 1 - Mr. Nigel-Murray! Oh no! Heck of a shot though. Booth won the gun battle, but didn't kill him, so there may be a return if he escapes. Bones and Booth sleep together? More on that later. I guess he did put the "lime in the coconut!"
Bones 2 - Baby time! Angela gives birth and the boy beats the odds and is not blind. Bones reveals she is preggers for Booth. Sure it was only an hour ago? How would she know already? The magic of TV, I tell ya.
Bruins Game - Series lead, but they can't have that few of shots and keep winning. Thomas' stick save was great, but in desperation.

Cougar Town - Penny Can goes mainstream. So mainstream that Lou Diamond Phillips is on the can and talking and all the rules get changed. Bobby eventually sells and moves out of the boat, which Travis moves into. Ellie and Grayson have to deal with the Children of the Corn of sidewalk chalkers. They show them!

Thoughts:
Modern Family: So this is Alex's Grade 9 grad? Never had that, but okay. Chay with his botched BoTox made him look like he had a stroke. The gate that wouldn't open - how annoying would that be? Cam falling in the pool was funny, busting through the screen door twice was even funnier. Phil and Claire falling down the hill was pretty funny too.
Bruins Game: A 2-0 victory was pretty sweet, didn't gain any ground in my hockey pools with scores like that though!

What we PVR'd for later - Modern Family, Cougartown, Happy Endings X2
Thoughts:
Grey's Anatomy: The whole episode was a build-up to the last line. How long is this process for chief resident anyway? The way it looks, none of them are going to get it! The tree growing in the lung was pretty cool, yet a little scary...A few of the lesser characters have chosen to get jobs elsewhere too, so new folks next season! Although I like Teddy.
Private Practice: Dell's daughter returns after a less than stellar send off the last time, and this time after her drama with the foster parents and a spoiled kid, she is going to be adopted by Naomi! The botched abortion storyline was a little too played out, and the quick snippet of Shepherd having a drink at the end is a preview of what is happening next week.

Thoughts:
Raising Hope - The Goth/Anime make-up (Drakkar Noir) getup on Jimmy had me laughing every time he came on screen. Maw-Maw was sane 5 years ago and tossed out the grand-kids, and they were able to sort of survive on their own. We learn that Sabrina dug goth-Jimmy, how the chipped tooth happened, and how to eat at a supermarket without paying!
Bruins Game - Why the 9:30 NST starts? Man, tired here this morning. Seguin is the (young) man. Ryder with two too. Hopefully the cut over Timmy's eye doesn't affect anything.

Glee - Interesting episode. Sue has a heart, although it's now broken. Jesse St. James tries to pit all the kids against each other but it doesn't work, in fact, fails completely. Emma pecks Will on the cheek and heads away crying. Finn ends it with Quinn, but Quinn has a surprise planned for NYC...Terri leaves for good?

Big Bang Theory: Oh Sheldon, you and your phobias. Although sharing water bottles is kind of gross, Raj continuing the prank was great. Sheldon getting locked in the toxic room was his worst nightmare.
RoE: Jeff feels threatened because Audrey gets a raise and buys a TV. I would admit that my wife buying a TV without me there would freak me out a little too. Adam and his fake proposals to get free food was pretty ingenious. Russell jealous of the shrew upstairs with Andy from According to Jim was a little awkward..

Thoughts:
Survivor: Rob won, well he deserved it, but how did the others let him get that far? He took the right two to the end with him - crazy Phillip and useless Natalie. If it were Grant and Ashley there would have been more of a fight. For the first time in a while, we did not get an update from all players. In fact, 4 or 5 we never heard a word from. I was hoping Matt would win America's choice, but I know America voted the better game player, Rob, thinking he had no shot at winning the million. Next time, two more past Survivors look for their shot at Redemption...

Thoughts:
H5-0: The drama for Danny episode is finally here. He ingests some kind of chemical agent and almost dies, and we find out he may be back with his ex-wife. Agent Kaye is back, and helps save Danny by identifying the poison. Sang Min tries to shoot Steve, but at the end asks for his help because Wo Fat is coming for him.
BoP: Wait, Mom is a judge? Did we know that? There are two cases going at the same time here, and although they seem unrelated, we find out they are indeed linked and the coach and teammate are involved. An exhumed 12 month body is gross.
Happy Endings X2: The tattoo removal, did they or didn't they. No they both kept them, so maybe there is potential for a rekindling of the romance there again, but not likely, that would sink the show. Max trying to find a guy, and then trying not to seem interested, but he is interested. He gets so confused that he almost screws up his chance.

B&S: Having found out the cancellation after watching this was bittersweet, but the wedding with small drama was a nice sendoff. Sarah accepting Brody, Justin opening the chance for the new love, etc. All storylines we will no longer see. Oh well.
Mike & Molly: Finally a show about the sister! She joining the choir was funny, and then she has a voice and shuns Carl for other random choir member. Carl cracks me up. His lines and facial expressions make the show even funnier.

What we watched "live" - Nothing
What we PVR'd for later - Big Bang Theory, Rules of Engagement, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Bones
Thoughts:
Grey's - Last week's show. We're so behind. Seattle Grace is still dealing with the children that came over from Africa. Although they don't deal much with the surgeries and such, it's all about the people drama this week. Mer is threatened by Alex that he is going to blab about what she did. Christina wants to operate, but Teddy won't let her. Teddy gets an offer to leave with his boyfriend, but her husband doesn't know. Jackson saves mice, and Richard is proud of him. Arizona and Cali get married, but Cali's mom wants no part. She thinks Cali is going to hell. Nice.
Private Practice - Still more fallout from the book. It's now looking like the entire practice could be taken down with Violet. All the time this is going on Cooper and Charlotte are trying to get married. Their parents clash, of course, and they all tell them they are not right for each other and shouldn't get married. They hop a jet to Vegas and do it anyway.
Bones - Fantastic show about a deaf and non-communicative girl. I think that's the PC way to say mute? They must determine her age first to see if she's a minor. The scan they do reveals abuse. They had already found who they though were the parents, and they were the abusers. It seems she ran away and a friend of the father's kidnapped her as she got off the bus. She stabbed him in self-defense. She was kidnapped by the folks she calls her parents now when she was three. She has no idea who she is, but Bones pulls a wisdom tooth and drills into it to find out she was from California, and she is reunited with her parents. It was a great episode. Oh, and Angela had pre-labour.

What we PVR'd for later - Happy Endings X2
Thoughts:
Happy Endings - How did we get a whole week behind? Jeez. Haven't we all fantasized about opening our own restaurant? Probably not as ambitious as Pangaea, but still. The the hipsters? Whatever, I'm over it, but I'll dance backwards out of the 90's Mitzvah in my purple/blue leggings!
Survivor - Rooster gets sent home in the duel (four-el) that I thought they would use to shrink the numbers even further, but no, 8 people are making it to Sunday's finale. The big shocker, I think, is that Grant was voted off. Rob can't win this, no way!
Modern Family - Cam is sick, and it's interfering with the Lady Gaga concert! Heaven forbid. Claire and Phil switch Good Cop, Bad Cop roles, and it's disastrous. You poked the bear! I was afraid to not drink the milkshake!
Cougartown - The breakup aftermath. Not so funny, but the arrival of Andy's family was! Nia Vardelous (sp!) as his sister-in-law with a thing for him was hilarious, yet conflicting. Everyone else spoke the language except Andy. Too funny!

What we watched from PVR - Nothing
What we watched "live" - Glee, Raising Hope
What we PVR'd for later - Body of Proof
Thoughts:
Glee - The prom episode was kind of disappointing in my opinion, or maybe it was just over-hyped. Some of the most annoying songs were performed as well, which didn't help. Really, Friday? and Jesse St. James? Gag. Karofsky had a chance to come out to the school and missed it, but there's still time, right?
Raising Hope - Ethan Suplee & Jaime Pressley on the show...sweet! Bert's line about needing one more stump to get his stump removal certificate had me cracking up, but not as much as the advertisements the grocery store staff did - "My Prices...", and Shannon Woodward looking hot, as always.

What we watched from PVR - Fringe
What we watched "live" - HIMYM, Mad Love
What we PVR'd for later - Mike & Molly, Hawaii 5-0
Thoughts:
Fringe: Great finale, a little confusing at times, but left us with questions as all finales should. 15 years in the future, Peter saves the world by going back in time subconsciously, and makes a different choice. Both worlds are united, but Peter then disappears because he never existed. Wait, so does the baby disappear too?
HIMYM: The end of the Arcadian saga and the end of Zoey, thank god that is over. It was just dragging on, especially since we were told several episodes ago that she wasn't the mother.
Mad Love: Tiffany is dealing with the marriage break-up, Ben ruins a first edition Jungle Book, and uses it to help Tiffany grow up. Larry is able to use self-restraint to not hit on Tiffany when she is vulnerable. Connie ends up as personal assistant to Evil Rachel Ray wanna-be, which ends horribly. Tiffany reveals at the end of the episode that she is staying in NY, which works out for everybody!

What we watched from PVR - Happy Endings
What we watched "live" - Amazing Race
What we PVR'd for later - Desperate Housewives, Brothers & Sisters
Thoughts:
Happy Endings: This was the one with the mouse and Jazz-Kung-Fu. Cuthbert in the spandex! Sweet! I wonder if gaycist will catch on as a new word?
Amazing Race: Finale, 2 hours. Well, to be honest, it was two one hour shows. The waxing looked painful and they never even got to finish Zev and Justin. They end up with some embarrassing beach chests, and get eliminated. The final three race on and a cab kills Mal and Gary, like it usually does. The Globetrotters end up finishing second behind your winners - Jenn and LaKisha.

What we watched from PVR - Brothers & Sisters, Mike & Molly, Hawaii 5-0, Body of Proof
What we watched "live" - Nothing
What we PVR'd for later - Nothing
Thoughts:
B&S: Brody is the Dad and we go through the realization by all parties that this may not work out. Norah is still in love, Sarah wants nothing to do with him, brothers and sisters become half overnight. Justin has a returning love interest - Tyler, unseen in 3 or 4 seasons.
Mike & Molly: Vince doesn't have a high school diploma, and he recruits Mike to help him get it. Molly is the better one, but Molly and the family think Vince's big secret is an affair. Hijinks ensue.
H5-0: Rick Springfield goes boom! It was his assistant, who was also his daughter, who didn't know that Rick had just set up a trust fund for her to account for the life he missed because her Mom never told him about her. Oh the drama. Does the super hot Kono have a new love interest too? Hope so, her character needs some development.
BoP: Two more facets of Megan's life are revealed. Her Dad was killed, and was told about it by a cop, which caused her much grief. Her ex-husband is revealed, and surprisingly, she is not a fan. I fear that Kate is dating him. That will just be awkward.

What we watched from PVR - Private Practice, Bones, Desperate Housewives
What we watched "live" - Bruins-Philly Game 4
What we PVR'd for later - Fringe
Thoughts:
Private Practice: The baby-cutter is back and files suit against Violet to stop the book. Charlotte and Cooper have a few issues to work out before the wedding, not the least of which is Charlie's ex-husband, who we find out is gay, and he cheated on her to see if it was just her he didn't find attractive. What a slap in the face!
Bones: Honesty is the best policy? Not likely. We have a body in the planter, now how did he get there? Wendell uses it to get a full-time job (is he now a full-time cast member?) Hodgins and Angela use it to confront the baby issues.
DH: Bree has yet another love interest, but hates the girls running around, and tries to break them of their bad habits. It's helped along by Carlos telling the girls that Bree killed Nana. Lynette tries to belittle her husband, but it doesn't work. Susan is trying to nurse Paul back to health but Felicia is poisoning him, and Paul tosses her out when she asks about him moving out, then he collapses on the floor.
The Game: Tampa Bay here we come, and Lucic is scoring!

What we watched from PVR - Happy Endings, Cougar Town
What we watched "live" - Big Bang Theory, Rules of Engagement
What we PVR'd for later - Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Bones
Thoughts:
Happy Endings: Brad's Dad is here! Stunt casting, it's Damon Sr. He can't tell his son he loves him. When he tries he almost dies..twice. Alex and Penney try finding guys at the bar, one guy sends over ribs. Smooth.
Cougar Town: Jules and Bobby switch living arrangements for the weekend. It doesn't work out too well. Travis bonds with Grayson, and Travis then proposes to Kirsten with disasterous results, and Grayson and Jules witness it. Jules saying "please say yes" was heart-wrenching.
BBT: 3 player chess, you know someone has this now in the works. Priya and Leonard set up a couples dinner for them and Howard and Bernadette, Penny and Amy try to get Bernandette to be the mole and feed her lines to say about Penny, but she is a bad liar. Raj tries a new drug to talk to girls, but ends up naked.
RoE: Timmy gets welcomed to America, even though he became a US citizen years ago. Russell is using it to get with the party-planner new hot chick. Jeff and Audrey are freaked about possibly having twins. Surrogate Brenda has it checked again anyway and it's not twins. Jeff exclaiming his happiness that it's not twins, cause the twins that Adam and Jenn blamed for the toilet blockage to leave post haste.

What we PVR'd for later - Cougar Town, Happy Endings X2
Thoughts:
Survivor: Enough with the Robbites! Jeez, it was like they were anointing the son of God up there! I think Mike's sacrifice was a dumb play, but if, and that's a big IF, he makes it to the end, and they remember, it may garner him some votes.
Modern Family: Mother's day, and Cam takes offense to being labelled the Mom. Jay has a moment when he's cooking and it makes him think about his Mom. Gloria's pants...enough said about that.
Bruins game: Total Bruins domination again. Dear Bruins, we were in this exact position against this exact team last year. Please, I can't go through that again.

What we watched "live" - Glee, Raising Hope
What we PVR'd for later - Body of Proof
Thoughts:
Glee: Rumours, and they don't even do my favorite track - Second Hand News. Santana singing Songbird to Britney was superb, and fleshing out Sam's character was a much needed development. No Kurt, No Rachel cry-sing this episode, which was refreshing.
Raising Hope: Bert using sex to get better tips in his gardening business, and then all the family tries it with the usual disastrous results... The loser trophy was a nice touch.

Thoughts:
HIMYM: Marshall and Barney layeth the smackdown-eth on each other, and the girls try different drink combos to bring a resolution. Ted and Zoe have a fight about the old building and try to spend a night there, but the Cock-a-mouse drives them out, and Ted is now anti-GNB too!
Mad Love: The lost camera leads us to discover Larry's soft side, and Connie likes it. Ben wear pink tighty-whiteys as his lucky undies. Kate showers with the shower radio around her neck...really? Tiffany's unseen husband leaves her. Opening the door for Larry?
Bruins Game: Another solid effort from the B's. Was nervous at first, but Tim Thomas brought it on late, and Krejci scores in OT, even though they played on...

What we PVR'd for later - Desperate Housewives, Brothers & Sisters
Thoughts:
Fringe: Peter all confused, and me too! So the blast caused him to think he was in the alternate world? Liv and the Sam Wise go on a treasure hunt, and Liv finds out she is the crowbar. She must use her mind to shut down the machine to allow Peter to enter it. Jeez, this is getting complicated!
Grey's Anatomy: The Alz trials, again. Adele finally is bad enough to get in and Meredith switches it so that she gets the agent instead of the placebo. Alex is the only one who knows. Alex manages to get $100,000 out of a cranky Doris Roberts for his African kids, only she dies, only to have her give him $200,000 after the fact... Cali is allowed to go home, but melts down about the baby going out into the world, and Miranda convinces her to do it anyway.

What we PVR'd for later - Nothing
Thoughts:
Survivor: Double tribal council, and the last two who aren't Robbites, are sent to Redemption Island. Phillip is all kinds of crazy! Julie was fully eliminated at the start of the show. There are now 4 on RED Island? Jeff, what are you planning?
Body of Proof: Great episode where a power B ends up floating in a pool. The whole team works together on this one, bugs, hair and all. So a note to power B's. Watch your back and pay attention if all your staff have anxiety twitches...
Big Bang Theory: Leonard finally has a lawyer that can challenge the roommate agreement. It all comes to a halt when Sheldon threatens to e-mail her parents about their relationship. Amy and Sheldon kiss!
RoE: Jeff has a buff pic of him from 20 years ago, and tries to turn his keg back into a 6-pack. It nearly kills him. Adam wants a sexy pic done, and Jenn turns out sexy, Adam ends up in a same sex dating ad. Russell sleeps with the annoying neighbor, which grosses Jeff out.
Cougar Town: "wrong balls" Cobb is born. Bar trivia is pretty lame, but I also rule at it! Jules has magic powers!
