Look closely, can you name these people..

Washed up Teen Idols are now part of a reality show on VH1. Oddly enough, I find this appealing...Photo by vh1.com

As we all know, there's nothing on TV. And there won't be until February/March when sweeps return. So usually the networks trot out bad reality shows (Remember Battle of the Choirs from last year?)

This year, Vh1 has "Confessions of a Teen Idol" where washed up TV stars try to get their fame back. The show includes Adrian Zmed and Billy Hufsey. I'm also looking forward to seeing what happened to Jamie Walters.

The show premiers on Jan. 4

He-Man!

Thank you Hulu.com for bringing "He-Man" back to me! Video by Hulu.com

It's the holiday season and we TV addicts know what that means: Yep. Bad TV specials, bad reality shows and of course really bad reruns.

Thankfully, we won't have to sit through reruns this year because of Hulu.com. It was just named Web site of the year by the folks of the Associated Press. It's well deserved.

I know some people hate Hulu because of it's inconsistent nature and the commercials, but when it's on, it's on. This week, I squealed when "He-Man" and "Fat Albert" were unveiled. I grinned from ear to ear for a good 10 minutes.

If you don't know the story of "He-Man" here it is: Prince of a far away world discovers that a sword given to him has magic powers and transforms him to the muscle bound He-Man, the most powerful man in the universe. His pet talking cat is transformed and adventures ensue. Sounds corny but I LOVED it. Each show had some sort of moral and He-Man or one of the cast always explained what the moral was in case you were too dense to get it.

"Fat Albert" was about black teen-ager who was fat but had a heart of gold. He always did the right thing and hung out with a group of kids: Bill, the normal one, Russell, Bill's younger brother, Bucky, a teen with bucked teeth, Weird Harold, self explanatory, Mushmouth, a teen who spoke gibberish and Rudy, the cool cat with the bad hat. Together, they were the Cosby kids. It aired late Saturday mornings and I loved it because there were black kids like me on TV. I never understood how we could have pink panthers but not black kids on TV.

So while you're watching the dreadful "Momma's Boys," I'll be enjoying my Hulu.com

"Villians"

Yes, "Claire" I'm confused too. But I'm glad this chapter is over. Photo by NBC.com

Craptacular. That's the way I describe this chapter of "Heroes." After such a promising start this chapter just meandered and lost it's way. Tonight's finale started out strong but logic flew out the window at the 30 minute mark.

Sylar terrorized the folks at The Company with HRG, Claire, Merdith and Angela trapped inside. HRG set the prisoners free (the Puppet Master, Iron Fist and the real Black Canary so Sylar could hunt them down bit by bit.

He injected Merdith with adrenaline and she couldn't control her ability.

Matt, Daphne and Ando all worked together to rescue Hiro. Ando got the ability to supercharge other people's abilities. So now he's the one with the power and Hiro is the one without a power.

Angela revealed that she knew who Gabriel's real parents were. And Claire got him with a piece of glass in the back of his head. Merdith would up burning down the company because she lost control of her abilities.

Nathan revealed himself to be a villan now and Tracy and Mohinder would up driving out into the dark together. Hiro destroyed the formula and Matt and Daphne would up together.

And now chapter four: Fugitives

It looks promising. Nathan flipped the script and agreed to turn the other heroes in, including Micah! So it'll be interesting to see how this place out.

So long Gabon....

Bob fought back and made his way into the finals. Photo by CBS.com

Well say what you will about "Survivor: Gabon," it finally got interesting and STAYED that way.

The show started with the "Surivors" discussing the ousting of Crystal. I knew that in 29 minutes, that Kenny would be the next to go and lo and behold, Kenny got the boot.

Then, I knew that Susie would be the next to go but surprise, surprise, she won the final immunity challenge! Then I knew Bob would go but Sugar flipped the script and made him and Matty compete and Bob managed to stay in. During the challenge, you could see Susie cringe because she KNEW Sugar was giving away her shot at the million bucks. The jury's reaction was hysterical especially Corinne's because you could see the HATE she had for Sugar.

Sugar knew that jury wouldn't vote for her and Bob knew that he thought he had it in the bag, and I'm sure most of America did too.

I was rooting for Sugar. At four key times, she flipped the script and orchestrated the ousting of Marcus, Randy, Ace and Kenny thereby changing the course of the game.

Charlie asked why Susie and Sugar they should get the big bucks. Crystal was next and called Susie out on coattailing, She then said Sugar controlled Bob. And then asked why he voted Crystal out and Sugar told her the truth that she was a bully. Ken was next, and then asked why she deserved the money. Kenny then asked Sugar why he backstabbed him. Sugar cried and cried and thought he was a bigger threat. Ken said he didn't believe her. Ken then kept harping on their "deal." Ken said that isn't what he wanted to hear. Corrine was next. She asked Susie if she could have her vocal cord removed. Corrine wanted to see "Nasty Bob." He didn't do it, Corrine unleashed on Sugar and then gave her the bird. Those two won't ever speak again. Marcus was next and wanted Susie to be a positive role model. Sugar wanted to give money to lung cancer. Marcus wanted to know about responsibility about Bob and Bob said the opportuntity didn't come up.

And finally it was Randy's chance. Randy was mean to Susie. Sugar was next. And called Randy a jerk. Randy was ticked off at Bob and said he might be forced to vote for Susie because she didn't laugh. Matty was next and he asked why she deserved the money. Matty wanted to reveal what she did what was evil and said Kenny. And he asked Bob why they were more deserving and he said "I don't think they are."

And he was right. He barely eeked out against Susie. Sugar got no votes which was kind of shocking to me because I think she played a really good game.

Who's gonna win Survivor?

Sugar, if you play your cards right, you might win this season's "Survivor." Photo by CBS.com

I thought this season of "Survivor" would be boring after watching the first few episodes. I was wrong.

The last six episodes have been on point and each tribal council has been better than the last. Last episode, Kenny got fooled by Bob and Corrine and his strategy was blown out of the water. Unfortunately, Corrine was a casualty, but at least she forced the rest of the group to see Kenny as the power player that he is.

Kenny scrambled and almost had Bob in his alliance but then after Crystal got mad at Matty and yelled, her fate was sealed.

Sugar finally played her hidden immunity idol, when she gave it to Matty so he could be saved. It was the most boneheaded and brilliant at the same time. It might win her favor with the jury and it might get her Matty's vote if she outlasts him.

The final five are Matty, Bob, Sugar, Susie and Kenny. The finale is Sunday. I hope Bob wins because he's a good guy and that I think is what is going to cause him to be ousted next. He'll be followed by Matty which leaves a Kenny/Susie/Sugar final three.

Susie will NOT win this because many will feel she didn't deserve it. That leaves Kenny/Sugar. Kenny has some friends on the jury but he enginnered the ousting of many of them so he might now win. Corinne HATES Sugar and now Crystal and Randy so they will NOT vote for her. However, the others might so I'm predicting Sugar for the win.

We'll see on Sunday.

Is this the dumbest man in America? YES

Ed threw the weigh in challenge to give wife Heba a shot at the final three in "The Biggest Loser. Photo by NBC.com

I have a confession.
I broke up with "The Biggest Loser" this year and thought I had left it behind. But then about three weeks ago, for some reason, I got sucked by in.
I love the show. I love the fact that we get to see these people transform before our eyes. But in reality, these people could NOT lose this weight so quickly.
And, these people are basically sequestered in fat camp for about three months, they have no CHOICE but to lose the weight because almost every moment is spent exercising and eating right.
It was that fact that kinda turned me off the show. However, since I'm now fighting the battle of the bulge myself, it's best to pick up tips whenever I can.
We're down to the final four, Vicky, Heba, Michelle and Ed.
Vicky is EEEEVIL. Like the original "Mean Girl," and her understudy Heba engineered several people being booted from the show.
Ed was kicked off but managed to get back on when they brought the booted contestants back to compete to get back on the show. Since then, the two of them have been somewhat sickening.
Last night, we discovered that Ed GAINED two pounds during a weigh in to try to give Heba a shot at the final three. Instead, America has to chose between him and Heba to see who gets the third spot. That being said, Ed's dumb, but I think he should win this game. He's a great guy.
If not him, then Michelle should get the prize because she's worked her butt off and is just an all around great woman. I hope Heboppotumus falls face first in a cheesecake because she's AWFUL!

The Secret Millionaire

Miles and Cynthia Kovacs are just one of the few couples who participated in giving away lots of money in "The Secret Millionaire." Photo by Fox.com

Fox Broadcasting hasn't been known for really good reality TV shows. Remember "Joe Millionaire"? Or "Married by America"? Well, they are at it again with "The Secret Millionaire."

The premise of the show: Wealthy people live undercover with the poor AS poor people. At the end of the week, they give away at least $100,000 of their own money to "deserving" people. The cameras are explained as a documentary about poverty. At the end of the week both rich and poor have their lives changed - for the better.

But this being Fox, shenanigans are afoot.

I watched last week and am watching tonight and I have to say, the show is entertaining, and that's how I'm treating this, as entertainment. However, there's a part of me that's saddened to see how people are living in the U.S.

After last week's show, you can bet I'll NEVER set foot in Imperial Beach ever. I've lived in San Diego and have been to I.B. maybe twice and after seeing the portrayal on this show, it looked like a disgusting mess. However, after asking around, I found that this show apparently showed only the WORST side of the area.

I also worry about Fox broadcasting that certain people in poor neighborhoods are suddenly the recipients of $100,000. It seems dangerous to me, but we'll see how this limited run show goes.

Does anyone care about "Heroes?"

Angela and Arthur are the best and worst thing that happened to "Heroes" this season. Photo by NBC.com

Another week, another blah week of "Heroes." Thankfully, this tragically LONG storyline will be over and "Fugitives" can begin. Unfortunately, I may not be there to watch it.

The good this week: Bad ass Sylar is back. The bad: Elle is dead and burned. Goodbye Kristen Bell.
The good: Hiro reunites with his mom. It turns out she was the Catalyst. She passes it on to him. The bad: Arthur Petrelli steals it like two minutes later and takes Hiro's powers as well. And he tosses him over the side of the building and he's lost in time. (Maybe he'll meet up with Peter's squeeze from last season and rescue her.)
The good: Arthur Petrelli appears to be dead. The bad; We're not sure. We saw a lot of lights and blood but that doesn't mean jack on this show.
The good: Ando, Daphne and Matt all work together to get the last issue of "9th Wonders." The bad: Seriously???
The good: Nathan is a bad ass. The bad: A gayish looking Marine was injected with the formula with the Catalyst in tow and gets all Hulky without the green skin and unsightly muscles.


I'll call this section: burning questions.....
1) Why do they need this formula? Apparently they can already GIVE people powers. Meet exhibit a) Nathan and exhibit b) Tracy.
2) Who created this formula? And how is this tied to the big bad eclipse?
3) Shouldn't this back and forth in time cause some sort of ripple or time paradox that someone, somewhere will have to fix?
4) Why didn't daddy Petrillie take Claire's powers?
5) Why was the human lie detector on Elle's phone? And why did Sylar get it?
6) How many abilities can one person hold?
7) Now that Daddy Petrelli has taken people's powers and is now "dead" do the people get their abilities back?

My head hurts just thinking about it.

I hope they win!! (not)

Nick and Starr have dominated "The Amazing Race." I hope they "win" tonight. Photo by CBS.com

Tonight is the finale for "The Amazing Race," and I have to say I'm glad this season is over. While I love the show, there's no one team I have a burning desire to see win.

Nick and Starr (pictured) have won half of the legs of the race but they just aren't nice people. Ken and Tina have bickered about everything and I want them OFF my TV set. That leaves the Frat boys Dan and Andrew who keep screwing up. They only made the final three because of a huge screw up of a stronger team, but I guess in the end, if you're in the finals, you're in the finals. I have a tendency to jinx teams so I'm throwing my support behind Nick and Starr and hope I stat true to form. Go team!

The show will return in February, and I hope they have a much better cast.

Flat screen or not flatscreen, now that is a question....

See this TV, yep, it's not mine. But maybe someday.....

So my friends JumptheSnark and Lekili and my friend Steve all have something I envy. It's purdy new TV sets.

I have a old TV. Like 1994 old. Like if it were a child, it would be a teenager.

It's still runs OK but when someone is wearing bright red we sometimes can't tell if they've been murdered because the red is bleeding so much. I'd like a new one, but I wonder if spending this money is worth it.
This might come back to bite me in the butt, but I don't think spending $1,000 or less will put us out in the poor house.

Then I began to think of the shows I'd really like to see in high def. This is the list I could come up with.

"24" Jump was kind enough to invite me to his house (We should do this again SOON) when he first got his TV and I had a blast! It was good to see Jack in high def and see things go down in CTU.

"America's Next Top Model". I'm inviting myself over to Lekili's house and to see Tyra in all her flat, high-def glory.

"Survivor". My friend Steve, his girlfriend Chris and I are avid "Survivor" fans. They invite me over to see the premiere and I buy them pizza from their favorite pizza joint. It's great to see the show and the backstabbing live and in great color.

Other than that, this is it.

So the question is: Is it worth it?

An ode to Kristen Bell

Elle (Kristen Bell) and Sylar (Zachary Quinto) have one last moment before he KILLS her. UGH. Photo by NBC.com

This season of "Heroes" has made me pull my hair out on more than one occassion. After a strong start, it petered out. But one good thing was the extraordinary acting of Kristen Bell. Y'all know how much I adore this young lady and her acting and from her days on "Veronica Mars."

She can act rings around most of the cast (Daphne I'm looking at you). And now because of a stupid plot twist, she's gone.

Poor Kristen, you're too good for this show and let's hope a movie career awaits you.

Last night during the LONGEST ECLIPSE EVER we learned that people got their powers back. I'm wondering if this was a reset for Peter? Mohinder almost reunited with Maya luckily we only saw her for a few seconds.

They keep trying to force Matt and Daphne on us but I'm resisting with all my might, this it totally not working for me so I wish they'd stop.

Hiro finally used his powers in a GOOD way so I was glad about that and he got to spend some time in a cool comic book store. I just want this storyline to be over.

Read the clue, read the clue, read the clue

There are no words. Please bring Toni and Dallas back for All Stars. Please, please... Photo by CBS.com

Hear that? That's the sound of my heart breaking as the last "good" time was eliminated from "The Amazing Race."

Toni and Dallas were always kind, always thoughtful and just all around good sports. Unfortunately, Dallas made a game-killing error in the race and that got them Phileliminated. Poor Dallas, he couldn't count Stalins and Lenins and then he left their money and passports in the cab.

Then they didn't READ THE CLUE and had to restart. It was sad.

So I'm rooting for the inept frat boys to win because it would serve Starr and Nick right to lose and as well as the bickering Kenny and Tina. If the frat boys win, it would be the biggest win in the history of the race!

In case you missed it ...

24: Redemption!

Oh Jack.I missed you. I can't wait until Jan. 11!!!! Photo by Fox.com.

It seems like it's been forever since we've seen Jack in action. Tonight's "prequel" to season 7 (Can you believe it?) wraps up some loose ends and starts a whole new season.

At the end of last season, we saw a beaten and lost Jack Bauer who had to make a choice to sacrifice his love for Audrey so she could have a normal life.

We catch up to him in the fictional country of Sangala, Africa where he's found a refuge with a former colleague who's running an all boys school.

Jack has become close to one kid named Willie and his brother and appears to be somewhat happy. Unfortunately, it won't last.
In Sangala an evil general seeks to obtain power and he's using the innocent children as soldiers to help fight his war.

Meanwhile, it's inaugration day in Washingon as a new president, Allison Taylor (Cherry Jones) takes office. This war is landing right on her lap.

It turns out the war is connected to a Washington insider who's financing the war and when a friend of the first son uncovers the plot, he winds up killed.

Back in Africa, one of Jack's charges defies orders and goes to town and is almost captured when they are ambushed by soliders. As they attempt to flee, they're shot.

At the school, Jack is being hassled by the U.S. forces who tells him he needs to come back home and answer charges of torture. Jack offers to leave the school when he gets word that the children are in trouble.

The rest of the time is spent trying to get the children to safety at the U.S. embassy. Along the way, Jack is tortured and even manages to kill someone with his knees!

Of course, we know that Jack gets the kids to safety and the president is inaugurated but it's the preview to the next season that adds to the excitement.

Without spoiling, expect the unexpected!

Hope and heartbreak

While Marc and Betty battled it out for a prestigious training program, it was the C plot of Justin and Randy that I cared most about. Photo by ABC.com

Last night, the 8 p.m. hour on CBS and ABC was the strongest of the season as "Survivor" and "Ugly Betty" both aired the best shows of their respective seasons.

I've already blogged about "Surivor" (Randy YES!!!) and now it's time to talk about Justin.

The A-plot had Betty and Marc trying to fight to get a position for a training program for young editors. (Kudos for the writer for finally fleshing Marc out as a person with ambition and kudos for them for humanizing Wilhemena and boo on who ever is dressing Betty!)

The B- plot was how Willie is after Connor and finally deciding to give up.

But it was the C-plot which was the attention grabber for me.

A few weeks ago, Justin tried out for a play on Broadway and learned that a bully from school secretly loved to dance and wanted to be on Broadway too. They've been hanging out and it was clear that Justin was having feelings for this boy and it was also clear that the boy kinda liked Justin too.

But then, our friend peer pressure stepped in: Randy was spotted with Justin by his jock friends and they secretly mocked the two. And of course what happened? Randy dissed Justin and went back to the friends.

I sat on my couch and had my heart break because I KNOW that moment! I'm going to change names to protect the innocent, but years ago when I was in school, there was a guy who broke my heart in the same way.

He too was a jock and we discovered that we shared a love for comic books after I spotted him in the comic book store one day. Soon, it became our ritual to meet up at the front gate of my school and walk to the comic book store together. We discovered we shared a love of the same music, movies and more. He was my McDreamy back then.

Then one day, we were coming out of the comic book store and he was spotted by his team. The next week, I waited for 30 minutes and he didn't show. At school he avoided me. Finally one day, he tried to bully me in the school cafeteria and of course, NO one messes with TheRemote and so a fight ensued.

Needless to say, I got some punches in and so did he, but he looked worse than I (I don't advocate fighting BTW) and we never spoke again. Over the years, I never forgot him and although this may sound cheezy, I have a feeling he was watching and somewhere out there, we connected again.

I hope that ABC has the courage to not end the Justin/Randy thing because let's face it, kids are coming out younger and younger and while this show hasn't openly addressed it, it's clear that the whole family knows about Justin and doesn't care. I loved that Hilda told Justin not to EVER change and always be himself.

It's a lesson we all need to be reminded of from time to time.

Hallejuh!

Randy! Finally, these people got a clue and voted your butt off!. Photo by CBS.com

Can you hear it?
It's my laughing hysterically in what will I'm sure go down as one of the BEST "Survivor" episodes ever!

But first things, first: I'm sorry "Survivor: Gabon." I was ready to bail on you but my lord, you came through tonight in spades!
The last few episodes were in a word: AWESOME as people are really playing the came and true colors are shining through.

Tonight was the annual "Survivor" auction and as usual, people were fighting for items such as chocolate, peanut butter and beer. Randy cleaned up with beer, spaghetti etc. And then he bought cookies for the tribe: it was here where "Cookiegate" was born.

Randy offered Sugar a cookie. She politely refused. He offered her again and she refused again. Then he proceeded to tell everyone he was the boss and alienated people.

Finally Sugar gave her cookie to Matty and that made Randy very sad.

Randy decided to seek revenge by being mean to everyone under the assumption that Bob found the hidden immunity idol. Unfortuantely he didn't know that Sugar had it and Bob trusted Sugar to show him his fake idol. (I did notice that Sugar didn't let Bob in on her secret that SHE had the idol. And isn't it odd that she's shown NO ONE the idol and they are all under the assumption that she has it?)

Later, after Ken won the immunity challenge. Randy then went off even more. Bob then gave Randy the FAKE idol and he and Corienne thought they had the upper hand.

Instead, THEY were the ones that looked like chumps. IN the words of Crystal "Goodbye and Go HOME!."

Bored now....

Tracy (Ali Larter) changes sides on tonight's episode. Does anyone really care? Photo by NBC.com.

Earlier tonight, my friend Jump the Snarkwere at the day job and he told me that he had a few episodes of "Heroes" stacked up on his TiVo. (I envy him with his high end TV and TiVo but I digress...)

Ordinarily, I'd have tried to make him feel guilty but instead, I thought to myself, you totally can erase all of these episodes, read the recaps on move on with your life.

This season has been Bo-RING. Seriously. I know some people who've loved it, but not me.

After a great start, this thing has spiralled out of control. I'm not looking for the shark just yet, but let's say it's close by.

Here's what's wrong:

Payoff: I feel like I'm being strung along. There's no payoffs along the way and it's like they are throwing everything and the kitchen sink at this thing and still no good results.

Characters acting dumb: Let's look at Exhibit A: Hiro. I don't care about him. I don't care about his story. Why can't he and Ando be part of the action for a change instead of teleporting around the world. Surely there's an American branch of the big company he owns. Why can't he and Ando move to NYC and be done with it.

Claire: While I was all about Saving the Cheerleader, I'm now thinking: Who cares? And why is it, that she's the most important person on this show? Now she's the key to everyone having powers?

People you don't care about: Matt Parkman, I'm looking at you.

Lack of power development: People's powers should grow over time. Take this show. While the premise was kinda dumb, you did see them practice and learn about their powers and over time, they proved to be pretty formidable foes.

The next chapter is called "Fugitives" let's hope they don't mean the fans fleeing from the show.

Read. the CLUE!!!

The day I've been waiting for has arrived. Terrance and Sarah are now gone! Hallejuh! Photo by CBS.com.

While I like this show, it makes me furious. Why or WHY can't people read the clue!

Tonight, NOT reading the clue was almost the undoing of the Frat Boys.

And I kinda want them to win the race because they seem to be the everyman that does this. There are TWO Non-elimination legs left, I'm guessing one will be next week and the other the week after with the finale coming in December.

Tonight the two teams that participated in the fast forward had to eat some nasty sheep's butt and it I were on the race, it would be at this point I'd say. "We've lost. Take me to the hotel."

So who's left: Ken and Tina who've calmed down but I still hate her. Nick and Starr who I hate. and Toni and Dallas who I LOVE. So I'm rooting for them or the frat boys. Sadly, I think Nick and Starr might have this inthe bag.

It's not you, it's not me well, it is you, more than me...

Lily Tomilin and Kathryn Joosten make "Desperate Housewives" must see Sunday TV. Photo by ABC.com

I am way too busy.
I realized this today when I fell asleep this afternoon, while working on a project for the second job.
Along the way, I also realized that I've been neglecting this blog and that's sad because blogging makes me very happy.
Luckily, in the next few days, I'll be getting some free time as some shows are going on winter hiatus or just leaving the airwaves.
By far, my favorite show has been "The Real Housewives of Atlanta.". It also seems as America has fallen in lovewith the group too as they were featured in The Bible aka "Enterainment Weekly." along with some of Bravo's other stars. The finale airs Tuesday at 10 p.m and to show you how much I love this show, I'm going to RECORD "Law and Order: SVU" and watch "Housewives" instead.

My other favorite show has let me down. "America's Next Top Model." While I still love this show, I wasn't feeling this cycle AT all! I'm calling McKey for the win on Wednesday. I'm hoping to watch it at a friend's house on her flat-screen TV, that is if we can find the vermin who "misplaced it" at Fed EX.

Thursday night will free up in a few weeks. We're doing the merge on "Survivor" and it looks as if it could be anyone's game at this point. I have NO one to root for but I don't want this guy to win.

"Ugly Betty" is still on point and it looks as if they finally are getting back to what we loved on Season 1. Although whomever is dressing Betty needs to be fired. There's ugly and there's tragic. We clearly are into tragic territory.

Sunday has been getting better and better. I'm actually watching "60 Minutes" these days and then that bleeds over to "The Amazing Race" and then to "Desperate Housewives."

"DH" is back to Season 1 good. At first, I was skeptical with the five-year jump, but it appears it was JUST what this show needed!
