The Man From Tallahassee, holy shit! I don’t know if I’m a sucker that loves LOST blindly or if this show really is as amazing as I think it is but hot damn… THE MAN FROM TALLAHASSEE!!!

John Locke is a tragic figure, one that I’ve loved since Day 1. He’s kinda like Col. Tigh on Battlestar in that he’s an old school hardass. Unlike Col. Tigh though, I love John Locke! He’s very flawed. He’s a wounded puppy. He’s insecure and abused yet unbelievably strong willed and determined in his new skin.

I’m not gonna lie to you, I was in awe at the levels of hell Locke’s Dad once again put him through. I mean, he’s already given up his fiance, his dignity, his sense of self, and his kidney now the man takes his ability to walk? That’s rough. I guess we don’t have to worry about him winning Father of the Year anytime soon. HELLO!

LOST once again did it to me… I cried this week. Not like a sobbing bitch or anything but I’m not gonna lie, I got teary eyed twice. Locke has just gone through so much over the last three seasons that it really pains me that mor than anyone we’ve seen this man’s spirit die and be reborn again only to be once again taken away with the final reveal tonight! It’s a really heartbreaking story and this island really does mean salvation for Locke. It’s a place where he can walk again, he can be more of a man than he ever was in real life and a place that offers him glimpses into humanity that give him hope and faith. It’s quite amazing what this island has done for him and its touching to see how different his real life was from his island life.

That’s why it pains to see that one of the biggest things the island brought him, escape, came crashing down tonight when Ben showed Locke what that big box of an island brought him… HIS DAD! The Man From Tallahassee that Ben refered to earlier in the episode.

SANJAYA MALAKAR, Welcome To The American Idol Tour!

Somehow, someway we did it America, we got Sanjaya into the Idol tour, guaranteeing his imperfect and damn near unlistenable voice will torment tens of thousands across the nation all summer long!’

I’m not gonna lie though, I damn near had a heart attack when I realized that Chris Richardson was in the bottom two. Oh hell no! Do you realize that I had the biggest moment of panic. The OH GOD WHAT DID WE DO moment passed over me, I felt faint, and my knees buckled a little. Okay, so maybe they buckled at the size of his biceps but damn, I got the vapors.

Not that I think Stephanie Edwards deserved to go home, because this is a singing competition but if America voted on outfits, she really was the worst! That blue gown was not a winning look so I can’t really blame America for sending her home.

I feel calmer now. I’m not kidding when I tell you that I was panic’d realizing we may have ruined cutie patootie’s chances.

Go Sanjaya!

Tonight at 8pm on NBC, the phenomenal freshman series FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS returns! There are only four episodes left this season and tonight it kicks off with new episodes right on up to the finale on April 11th!

If you’re not watching FNL you’re a douche. That being said, Bravo is running a bunch of episodes on the weekends to allow people to catch up. FNL is on iTunes so you can download the season. Worst case scenario, wait until this summer and buy/rent the dvd’s of the fraktastic first season and be prepared to have your mind blown! Then watch Season 2 (with luck, we’ll have a season two).

Tonight’s episode “Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes” finds the Taylor clan in further turmoil. As McCoach ponders the college coaching job at TMU, his family falls further apart. Julie, while being a good kid, is in way over her head with her relationship to QB1 Matt Serecen. She lets everyone know that she’s not planning on leaving Dillon or Matt anytime soon. Oh no she didn’t. Tami Taylor will grab her by those cute bangs and smack the hell outta that girl. Hell, send Smash’s Mother in for a good talkin’, Julie will be packing before the hours up!

And I don’t want to be the bearer of bad news, but it looks like crip Street might not be hearing good things about his chances at making the National Quad Rugby team. I don’t care what happens to Jason as long as he kicks Lyla to the curb.

Cannot wait until tonight. Remember, 8pm on NBC!

It’s Wednesday and although our favorite show Veronica Mars is on a little break until May, I wanted to take the time to let you know that while the end of Season 3 is right around the corner, you can have your thoughts of Season 3 live on forever… on dvd!

I was lucky enough to have the priviledge of attending the Veronica Mars Bloggers Day last year and so I consider myself an uberfan.  Because I’m an ubergeekfan, I was asked to record a video proclaiming my undying love for all things Veronica that could be included on the Season 3 DVD’s when they come out.  I know, right?!!!!! Amazing.

There’s nothing better than me and a camera folks, let me tell you that!  Now, I don’t know if my ranting and raving will make it onto the dvd’s or not, but this is a really cool opportunity.  I mean, hello, everyone needs to see my face on their dvd.  I tried to convince Rob Thomas to have a separate disc with just my mug on it… don’t think that went over too well.

If you’re interested in creating a video to send to Rob Thomas that might make it onto the Season 3 DVD’s to be released later this summer/early fall then keep reading!
