Last night was a great TBBT - lately I've been thinking that there hasn't been much going on with the plot in the show, but last nights episode made up for it.
The first segment of the show was brilliant just by itself - the many jokes of from the characters Sheldon and Amy {Shamy} gave the right beginning the episode needed. As well as quickly getting to the main plot of the episode - gossip and the relationship between Howard and Bernedette.
The experiment of how gossip reflects social groups and situations is brought up by Sheldon and Amy, which causes the duo to fabricate gossip about them having intercourse with each other.
The ending I will leave off, because you should watch it. I highly recommend it. In other television news, new shows are just around the corner so I will inform you what to watch and what not to waste your time on.

Watch: Harry's Law
This week, there isn't much new on again. However, I am happy to say that the Harry's Law season finale was quite good as well as NBC has seem to catch up on their uploading the show. If you have missed the last 3 episodes, you can find them at both NBC.com and Hulu.com [which makes me happy considering I complained about it not being online last time].
This episode really ties up the majority of loose ends in the season - and hopefully this won't be the last from Harry's Law. IF it is, then I plan to buy the first season.
Next week, there will be new episodes of quite a few things but tune in tonight for a new Big Bang Theory episode on CBS. Below is a picture to peek your interest:

Watch This Not That: TV Clip
So, I actually never write about television clips - however, this one is pretty amazing.
Last night on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon", the most epic appearance happened - Stephen Colbert singing Rebecca Black's "Friday" with some special guests.
Now as far as late night goes, I am a big Craig Ferguson fan - but I went out of my way to watch Jimmy Fallon last night. I will always promote Craig over Jimmy, but when it comes down to an epic clip of the week like this -- then Jimmy takes the cake for the week.
Below is an attachment to the clip.

Watch This Not That: Recap - Tuesday
So last night I caught up on both NBC's Castle and CBS's Mad Love.
Castle - gave an awesome version of their own "Law & Order"-esque episode entitled "Law & Murder" - which was quite fitting. Nathan Fillion was amazing like usual and the storyline of his character Castle with the character Beckett progressed nicely with a good ending. I am a big fan of murder mysteries as well as "Law & Order: SVU" so this was a good mix of both things. I real cup of tea for a Fillion and murder mystery fan.
Mad Love - Martin Starr returned as the creepy neighbor "Clyde" and I am glad he got into another episode. The plot was just okay for this Mad Love episode, but the jokes were up to par which was nice to see coming out of CBS.
For tonight:
Glee is a rebroadcast of the episode "Special Education" but there is a new My Life As Liz episode on MTV tonight - which will be a later than usual because of Teen Mom 2.
If you are bored around 7pm, I recommend Comedy Central tonight - they are showing a rebroadcast of the musical episode of Scrubs. Big fan of that one.

Watch This Not That: Recap - Monday
So lately there has been a lot of rebroadcasts of television lately - luckily for the next two days there is new TV episodes on - which makes me happy since there was no Big Bang Theory last week.
So I'm posting just on what's new this week starting Monday:
For CBS: Tonight is an old episodes of How I Met Your Mother but a new episode of Mad Love - in which this new episode of "Mad Love", Kate crashes Ben's car which leads to everyone sharing a room for the night.
For NBC: There is no new Chuck tonight but, Harry's Law is new - which I am excited for. If you haven't been able to find the new Harry's Law episodes online [like everyone else in the world], then it is good for me to add that on Saturday's NBC rebroadcasts their weekly episode on Saturdays. Which is helpful since NBC, for some reason, won't post them online.
For ABC: Well it's Dancing with the Stars season - and I'm not too big of a fan. But right after is a new Castle, something always to be happy for.
For Fox: Sorry to say that House isn't a new episode.
And for MTV: Well their season finale of Skins was last week, so nothing too much new to really watch on this station unless you are a fan of The Hard Times of RJ Berger - for an MTV show, it isn't too bad. I shall post something about their start of Season 2 sometime this week.
The next post will be on Tuesday's line up in the morning.

Watch Celebrity Apprentice: I Know It Sounds Odd...
Sorry for the lack of posts this month - I've been catching up on TV as well as some work
Now for the post - Celebrity Apprentice = I honestly I am not really into reality television - let alone Donald Trump - but this season so far is actually pretty good.
I initially started watching this season because of Gary Busey - that man is funny and awkward as hell, but it makes good television. Normally I am not a fan of The Apprentice in general but this being for charity makes it a little better. Now this isn't the first Celebrity Apprentice season but so far I think it has the best group of celebrities in it. Which include:
Gary Busey
Lil' Jon
David Cassidy - to keep you up to speed, he left in the first episode
Star Jones
Lisa Rinna - She did Dancing with the Stars a little while back so it isn't too shocking that she's on the show - but she recently left in episode two
NeNe Leakes - I've never seen someone on television that can talk over Star Jones until now
Mark McGrath - Surprisingly funny and witty in this
Richard Hatch - The first winner of Survivor - don't worry, I forgot who he was too.
Niki Taylor
LaToya Jackson
Hope Dworaczyk - one of the more colorful Playboy girls I've seen...
Marlee Martin - Damn, can she get mad...
Dionne Warwick
Meat Loaf
John Rich
Jose Canseco
I would say that you don't really have to continually follow Celebrity Apprentice to keep up - but it is a good guilty pleasure for NBC's reality television shows. Celebrity Apprentice is on Sundays - so there is another new episode tonight.

Not The Event: NBC - Please Come Up with More Clever Titles
So I've been waiting for this show to come back from its mid-season break to update on this - so it is relevant.
It's been called "If 24 and Lost had a baby" - yes quite frankly it is, but like those shows, I quite hate it. Lost was good for a while but then [like Heroes] lost its plot and had too many characters.
In which lets start the list of why it sucks:
1. Too many characters and side stories - it seems when this happens in shows, they typically last for about 4 seasons.
2. Honestly the first episode of the season lacked real clarity on what the heck was going on half the time - but I will give it the "good ending so I am intrigued to watch more" phrase. The whole missing plane with a flash was interesting but that plot was drawn out so much for so long after that I almost considered making a drinking game out of it. "Every time they mention the plane being gone, drink!"
3. While the casting overall is good, the characters have way too much going on in each little segment. In one episode I learn how the President became President but then flashes to Jason Ritter being shot at - it jumps way too much between characters for the characters to actually gain development. When this happens, I lose interest in the characters, because in no way shape or form do I actually understand them.
4. The whole lets kill people off then bring them back, then kill them again, and then having them maybe be alive is really concerning. One - it gets complicated. Two - usually who they killed in the first place, I could have cared less about.
The only plus':
1. Casting - I am a big fan of both Jason Ritter and DB Sweeney - in fact, if the focus was more on the reaction and complications of Jason Ritter's character, I would be happy to watch.
2. The Aliens - aliens that look like us who age at considerably lower rates - love it. But geez how much double crossing does a mother and son have? One week they're hugging and the next one has a gun to the other.
That's about it for plus' - I would recommend that you don't watch this if you haven't already watched it and somehow got "addicted". I was hoping for a good alien show this year - it has seemed to fail. Oh well...

Watch Mad Love: Brittany Snow guest stars
Tonight was a night for Brittany Snow as she made a guest appearance on CBS's Mad Love as Kate's [Sarah Chalke] sister from out of town. While nothing major happened within the plot of tonights episode - the joke's were at an all time high. Thanks to the comedic styling of both Judy Greer and Tyler Labine. Especially when Kate finds out that Tyler Labine's character [Larry] slept with her sister...
Ben's [Jason Biggs] character went through his first trial of meeting someone of Kate's family - and it seems he passed in both like-ability as well as standing up for Kate in the end.
If you have the time I would say watch it on CBS tomorrow - it's written quite well.

Watch Craig Ferguson: NPH for the Win
I go back and forth on watching late night television talk shows - but when I do end up watching something, it's always Craig.
His introduction are great, a dancing horse cued by a doorbell is great - and the fact that CBS lets him swear that much is awesome.
And for those Neil Patrick Harris fans out there - last nights episode was "Legend wait for it....Ary!
I am a giant fan of NPH [honestly who isn't] and while he didn't show any special magic tricks, he talked about an awesome story regarding the musical production of Beauty and the Beast. He also got a golden harmonica - which is pretty awesome considering I've only seen 2 handed out on the show.
Unfortunately, CBS.com only takes scenes from Craig's show [I would imagine the one's with less swear words] and puts them online. They usually have full segments of interviews with guests, so hopefully within a few hours it will be up.
