I’m so glad that the time is finally here that all the shows I’ve been blogging about for the past few months have arrived. Tonight is no exception, as a couple of things are on that I’ve been anticipating.
COUGAR TOWN — I’m gonna give it a shot. Not sure if it’s a winner yet, but if not, it’s only 23 minutes of my life that I can’t get back.
EASTWICK — Same deal. I love Lindsay Price from Lipstick Jungle — her wardrobe was the best thing that show had going for it, and I wanted nearly every single thing she wore. That aside, Rebecca Romijn still has some Mommy weight on (I think she began filming about 4-6 weeks after her twins were born) and it seems like the shows as a whole could be entertaining. This one’s an hour, though, so prepare yourself for that. I will of course record and zoom through commercials.
DANCING WITH THE STARS — No, I’m not watching it this season, but I know enough to realize that the results show is this evening. I didn’t think it was possible to extend the thing any longer, but they actually spread it into three nights for the premiere: Guy’s Night, Ladies’ Night, and Results Night. Are you rooting for someone?
As always, TOP CHEF LAS VEGAS is also on, and luckily Real World Cancun has ended so I have a week of freedom from MTV (until both The Hills and the new RW/RR Challenge begin next week).
Don’t forget to set your DVRs!
Without spending too much time describing the dancing abilities of our final four contestants — Melissa, Gilles, Shawn, and Ty — I want to briefly share my feelings and observations about them and the way I expect this competition to finish.
Ty said that when he did his hip motions for wife Jewel, he could tell that “Mommy like.” Ty is hilarious, we need him around for the comedic factor. I know that he isn’t the best, but he is by FAR the most entertaining and lovable of all the dancers. Most of them seem rather snobbish, quite frankly. And I don’t tolerate that monkey business here on my blog.
It’s ballroom time bitches, and those of you who have been watching for a while know that the judges don’t mess around when it comes to the ballroom. According to Mark Ballas, it is 2 dance weeks that separate winners from losers. Mark and Shawn do a quickstep that even Len raves about. Except that they somewhat broke the quickstep technical rules. Carrie judged it her best dance ever. Score: 27. Her second dance is dramatic and requires her to be very serious. I loved it. But my heart (and vote) will be with Ty until he’s eliminated! 29, 56 for both.
I had several shows I neglected to post about in the past 24 hours, but here’s some important moments from them. Just don’t expect anything more from me this week. I’ll be back in all my blogging glory on Sunday but who knows how fast I can work.
