Desperate Housewives - New Episodes Air January 2009
Terminator: SCC - Earthlings Welcome Here
Riley: You’re so lucky that your mom is home schooling you.
John: Yeah, it’s been awesome.
My feelings on Sarah going to a UFO convention for answers are the same feelings that John had about it. Did anybody else think that there was not enough of John in this episode? The way that Jesse and Riley met was shown but Jesse’s purpose for bringing Riley back has not been completely spelled out so I like that there is finally at least progress in that storyline. When Jesse smacked Riley later on in the episode, I understood why she did what she did but since I am not a fan of Jesse just the act of hitting Riley made me dislike her even more. Although Riley needs to really get a grip because I wouldn’t put it past Jesse to get rid of Riley if she doesn’t get her act together. It was a pretty comedic moment when Cameron talked about how she was thinking of getting a tattoo of a tiger or a wolf. As much as this episode was good, I really was not thrilled with almost an entire episode of Sarah with “Abraham” figuring out what these 3 dots mean. Is it bad if I don’t even care anymore what these 3 dots mean? Ellison and Catherine’s storyline is being put together quicker, so if everything connects then let’s find out why at least one of the dots is significant. Although I was screaming at the TV right before “Abraham” was killed and the way that Sarah found her way to where “Abraham’ worked was great. The second season started off very strong, but a few episodes back it started to slow down and drag out the story lines. Then we had a nice filler episode and it just still has seemed very slow lately. I have enjoyed all of the episodes (thankfully) but I want more action, more excitement, (more Brian Austin Green). The background music for this episode was amazing.
Chuck - Chuck vs. Santa Claus
Ellie: A lot of people get by with 9 toes.
Jeff: I’m getting by fine with just 8.
Morgan brings the first major laugh in the show with what he is wearing and asking Chuck if he looked like an adult. Captain Awesome buying his own gift that will be from his fiancé is hilarious since it was somewhat unexpected from him. The introduction was perfect, one of the most if not the most entertaining intros this season. I love how Big Mike crouched down and let Chuck run things once everyone saw Ned with the gun. I laughed when Casey said he missed all the fun when he stepped out of work once and then again when Casey said that he was on gift wrap duty. It was fun to see Ned as a character that is a real guy who really does not know what he is doing and not one of those complicated guys holding a place up. When Casey was shot, I laughed and thought, “poor Casey.” How incredibly hilarious was it when everyone called their loved ones and Lester called a love chat line? I am still laughing about that. Having Big Mike think about customers coming to the store more than the safety of his staff at such a moment was so funny. The scene where Ned lets two hostages go was one of the funniest in this episode. We all knew that something was going to happen after Casey & Sarah left but what unfolded was even better than what I could have thought would have happened. I love how Captain Awesome was talking about being bold and then made Lester be the “sacrificial lamb.” The way that Chuck handled Fulcrum was better than he would have ever handled it before his intersect days. When Chuck sees Sarah shoot Fulcrum, that sucks because she was protecting him but he does not see it that way, as any normal person would not at first. This was one of my favorite episodes this season and is definitely a favorite Christmas episode of mine in TV in general.
One Tree Hill - Things A Mamma Don’t Know Airs Jan 5, 2009
Heroes - Dual
Tracy: Sorry, I’ve got plans for this little piece of paper, Pikachu.
Sylar’s opening monologue was one of my favorites. I was so thrilled that we got back to Sylar’s evil side, is that bad? Haha. I loved Sylar’s little psychological game, locking Claire, HRG, Angela, and Meredith in. Zachary’s performance throughout this entire episode was beyond phenomenal. I thought that the soldier was going to play a bigger part, so the fact that he was killed so quickly was actually kind of funny. Ando’s power is ridiculously amazing. As much as I was excited that Ando was injecting himself to get a power, I was very nervous about if the future (him killing Hiro) would still play out. Ando, Matt, and Daphne are great together, so entertaining. Only time will tell. Hiro punching Tracy was just about the funniest thing that Hiro has ever done. When Peter was injecting himself, I was thinking, “No! Take it! No! Take it” going back and forth, and I still do not know how I feel about him taking it. So I know that Nathan has turned on Peter but I really do not think that Nathan would leave Peter to die or turn him in (in volume 4) but only time will tell. Dare I say this could be one of my favorite episodes this season? Jeph Loeb, you are amazing and we will miss you. The promo for Volume 4 looks incredible and I am so psyched for Heroes to return in February!

Pushing Daisies - The Norwegians
Emerson: Oh, look at that. A dumb idea just found a friend.
Everything about the introduction was perfect, I loved it a lot. Chuck and Ned rubbing Emerson’s hands was just about the funniest thing! When Emerson told Vivian to stop looking for Dwight, I knew it wouldn’t just end like that. The introduction of the Norwegians was very entertaining! It was great to see Olive standing up for herself and wanting to be in with what investigations Chuck, Ned, and Emerson were solving. I wouldn’t put it past her to want to be part of a group so badly that she would join the Norwegians. Although I was up in the air about whether she would play both sides, so since she ended up doing that, I was glad. It was only a matter of time before Lily had to fight to keep what she did secret, trying to get Vivian to stop the investigation. Why both of the coffins were empty was a great twist. Ned saying that it isn’t what it looks like when Olive walks in on him and her saying exactly what he was up to was very humorous. It did not seem like a mystery when figuring out who saved Ned and Olive when they were hanging from the cliff, although to now know that it was Ned‘s dad is even better. Chuck walking into the Pie Hole with the Norwegians standing right there was such a close call, I loved it! Ned’s dad being the one who covered everything up was the icing on the cake for this episode. This entire episode was full of adventure and suspense, I loved it. It was one of my favorite episode this season.
