If We Controlled Your Remote… 11/15/12

We’re exactly one week away from Thanksgiving—and the official start of the holiday shopping season! I can’t believe Christmas is less than six weeks away. I’m already starting to plot out my Black Friday shopping strategy! Speaking of strategy, read on to find out how we suggest you tackle tonight’s packed TV line-up.

After a rough start to the season, I’m now back on board with Grey’s Anatomy. Last week, Christina helped Dr. Thomas with his surgery, while he coached her on how to become more calm and relaxed. However, in the middle of the surgery, Dr. Thomas dropped dead, leaving Christina to finish things on her own. Meanwhile, in Seattle, Meredith pulled a woman from underneath a car and made it her mission to see her safely through surgery. At the end of the episode, Christina showed up on Meredith’s doorstep.

I loved how last week’s episode played with the split screen—giving us a fun side-by-side comparison between Meredith’s and Christina’s lives and surgical environments. I was so sad to see William Daniels’ guest-starring role come to an untimely end. He will forever be the voice of K.I.T.T. to me, but I thought his character’s relationship with Christina was great, and I’ll miss that fun banter. I’m hoping that Christina’s presence in Seattle last week means she will be returning for good—it will be nice to see the gang back together again.

On tonight’s episode, “Second Opinion,” the crash victims proceed with their lawsuit, which requires them to face their injuries. Meanwhile, Bailey sneakily gets Arizona to assist with a pediatric case; and Cristina works on adjusting to her new surroundings.

See the drama tonight on ABC at 9/8c. Learn where to find episodes online of Grey’s Anatomy @ Clicker.

Tonight, I’ll also be watching/recording The Big Bang Theory, Elementary, Last Resort, Grey’s Anatomy, 30 Rock, Up All Night, The Office, Parks and Recreation, Glee, The League, Sweet Genius, Reality Show, and Childrens Hospital.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 10/25/12

I am in disbelief that October is almost over. Where did the month go? Despite the fact that the time seems to be slipping away, I am welcoming the cooler temperatures and, even more so, all the new television! Let’s take a look at what we’re recommending (aka ordering 😉 ), you to watch tonight.

Megan’s Choice

The Big Bang Theory is one of those comedies that never fails to deliver me side-splitting laughs—I admit to tears often streaming down my face. Last week’s episode was particularly funny, especially when Howard found his dentist sneaking out of his mom’s house. Another great moment was the discussion between Raj, Stuart, and Howard—awkward for Raj to introduce his new roommate to Howard. The jealousy tension was really well-played. I’m looking forward to seeing more moments with Howard and Bernadette, as well as hoping they play more on the Raj/Stuart friendship.

On tonight’s episode, “The Holographic Excitation,” the gang heads to Stuart’s comic book store to celebrate Halloween; Leonard uses science to seduce Penny.

To see if science can be the new panty remover, tune into CBS at 8/7c. Learn where to find episodes online of The Big Bang Theory @ Clicker.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Grey’s Anatomy, Elementary, Last Resort, Person of Interest, Scandal, The Vampire Diaries, Beauty and the Beast, and Sweet Genius.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 10/11/12

So the question has been answered, and badda boom, the jury is OUT—the first canceled show of the season is Made in Jersey, which is being replaced with Undercover Boss. As for tonight’s TV, I’m glad there’s the VP Debate cutting down the number of new shows because I already have a backlog from earlier in the week. That said, there’s still plenty of new stuff on tonight for those who are all caught up, so check out our recommendations.

I’m excited for the return of The League tonight. I’m not a sports fan, but I find this show about a group of friends stressing and fighting over their fantasy football league hilarious. The cast is so much fun, and they all have great chemistry, which makes their use of improvisation seem so natural. Paul Scheer and Nick Kroll are always amazing and will do anything and everything for a laugh. When we left the gang last season, Jenny had just found out she was pregnant, Pete had accidentally branded the words “Sacko” on his lower back, and Ruxin had set the Shiva and Sacko trophies on fire and set them out to sea, declaring the season null and void. I’m looking forward to another season of crazy antics, insults, and politically-incorrect humor, and I hope we also get some more of those totally inappropriate Taco songs!

On tonight’s episode, “Training Camp,” preparations are made for the arrival of Kevin and Jenny’s baby. Meanwhile, Taco scores an invite to the Dallas Cowboys’ training camp.

See what hijinks the gang gets up to tonight on FX at 10:30/9:30c. Learn where to find episodes online of The League @ Clicker.

Tonight, I’ll also be watching/recording The Big Bang Theory, Last Resort, 30 Rock, Up All Night, The X Factor, and The Greatest Event in Television History.

Trailers for New Fall Shows on The CW & Our Thoughts

You saw all the trailers and our thoughts on the new shows for ABC, NBC, FOX, & CBS. Now check out the same for the new CW shows!
 


Link to Arrow on The CW.

Jenny’s Thoughts: First, HOT. The lead is smoking in this one. But besides that, the show looks great and I love the Green Arrow. I loved Justin Hartley as the character on Smallville, so I’m hoping Stephen Amell makes me love him, too. I like Katie Cassidy & Paul Blackthorne, too, so hopefully I’ll like the rest of the cast. I’m hopeful that this show lives up to my expectations. – Excited
Megan’s Thoughts: Another superhero show…but I’m in. I’m sure the stories will be interesting, but I’m going to go on my girl side right now and say: Stephen Amell is incredibly sexy. Will he live up to the hype? I certainly hope so, because I want to see him on my television weekly. – Excited
Kyle’s Thoughts: I don’t really know anything about the character of The Green Arrow, but I enjoyed Smallville (with one exception – but I’ll get to that later). And I’m always willing to give a new superhero show a shot. – Curious
