Just a few of my favorite things.  Finally did a page on it.  my favorites-2009

Recently ran across a new blog written by one of the writers for Saturday Night Live.  Some funny stuff worth two seconds of your time.

Monday provided the long awaited season premiere of Heroes: Villains.  The teaser first hour provided a lookback to the last two seasons and provided small peeks into the future.  Then followed the two hour season premiere which was the best one of the season so far.  So many changes, answers, questions were broached, at the end of the show we were like “Whoa!”  My husband worked late and missed the first half and I could not even update him due to so many things happening.  I look forward to next week and hope that they get some of the kids back into the scene.  Great work NBC.

I thought I would update my Fringe post.  The show is definitely not comparable to X-Files or Lost, but it does provide some minor intrigue/drama.  I do find it to be quite humorous.  The little quips from Walter Bishop,the crazy doctor, are hysterical.  Olivia seems too transparant.  Young Bishop is attractive, but has too many unexplained boring intricacies. I would not be upset if I missed it one week (which I won’t due to Tivo.)

With much awaiting anticipation, the season premiere of House was on Fox last night.  Our family gathered to watch.  I, personally, was a bit disappointed.  The news of 13’s positive Huntingtons test was expected, as was her reaction.  Entirely too much of the attention was wasted on her story last night.  Dr. Kutner showed his usual brilliance, but little attention was given to him.  Dr. Taub was a whiny mess, as usual.  How he made the team, I do not know.

Wilson is leaving, due to his realization that miserable House needing to grow up and live life without enablers.  This is a good turn to the story, but the previews of the upcoming shows show that House doesnt seem to be able to take no for an answer.  Unfortunately I enjoy the cynical bantering between Wilson & House and hope they change the Wilson’s mind.

DH & I watched the premiere of Fringe last night on Fox network.  We enjoyed it.  It seemed like X-Files directed by the creator of Lost.  So being a Lost lover, it was an immediate hit, lol.  It is basically about an agent who is after these “fringe” scientists who practice medicine on humans outside the norm (teleportation, mindreading, reanimation.)  There was a great chemistry among the characters and it was clean enough for my kids to watch.  I would recommend it.

Added note to Izikavazo:  We missed the first few minutes, so we only saw the people after melting, maybe i spoke too soon!! Thanks for the comment!
