If We Controlled Your Remote… 2/22/13

Wow! We here in northeast Kansas are just blanketed in snow. We got about 8-10 inches in less than 12 hours. School was canceled both Thursday & Friday, and hubs worked from home Thursday. (As I write this up Thursday night, I’m assuming he’ll be here tomorrow, too, but who knows. LOL) So it’s been a good 24 hours to curl up under a blanket and catch up on TV. Now, there’s not a lot on, and poor Megan is sick again, so it’s all up to me tonight. Check out what I think you should be watching. 😉

csiny222smallMuch to my sadness, tonight is the season finale of CSI: NY…and I have a sinking feeling it’s going to be the series finale, not just season. Last season only got 18 episodes… This season was even less at 17. That doesn’t bode well for the show’s future, does it? It makes me sad because I do love this show and I do love the characters. I will keep my fingers crossed, but Ausiello & TVLine.com has it at “could go either way,” so I’m not celebrating yet.

Last week was all about Valentine’s Day. There were three different dead men, and only one of the killers killed for the wrong reason. A gorgeous young trophy wife who claimed to be totally in love with her older, heavy-set husband killed him when she thought he was cheating on her, when in reality, he was planning her dream vacation. One of the other deaths was a man who was shot when he was about to shoot his soon-to-be-ex-wife, and the other was a pimp who was killed when he attacked a John because he wasn’t sexing up the prostitute or whatever. LOL It was silly, but it worked. I enjoyed the episode—especially all the stuff with the team at the end: Jo’s daughter ditched her date to have a Mom/Daughter movie night; Christine surprised Mac with a romantic date/dance with Josh Groban singing & playing in the background; and Lindsay & Danny tried to have as romantic a night as possible but were interrupted by Lucy crying out. Totally a problem for parents with young children! 🙂

On tonight’s episode, “Today is Life,” community unrest over the police shooting of an unarmed man forces Mac and the team to move quickly to solve the case.

Don’t miss what might be the last episode of the series but is definitely the last episode of the season tonight on CBS at 9/8c. Learn where to find episodes online of CSI: NY @ Clicker.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Last Man Standing, Nikita, Malibu Country, & Blue Bloods.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 2/15/13

Thank goodness it’s Friday! My kiddo’s been sick since Wednesday, and trust me, it isn’t pretty. I’m glad it’s the weekend so the hubby’s home to share parenting duties. I’m also glad because there’s some good stuff on tonight, so check out what Megan & I think you should be watching. 🙂

Jenny’s Choice

bluebloods215smallOne of my favorite dramas on TV right now is Blue Bloods. It seriously combines a great police drama with a heartfelt show about family. Usually, we’re lucky to get one or the other (like CSI or Parenthood), but with this show, we get both. Last week was great because we got to see what exactly this show does so well. Frank had to deal with the ex-mayor asking that his daughter’s charges of possession be dropped after the officer (Jamie) arrested her smoking marijuana. Then Erin talked to the ex-mayor and said he should let his daughter learn from her mistake, rather than cleaning up the mess for her. The advice worked because she was sentenced to community service, and her father supported that. The main case of the episode was good, but I’m not a big fan of the religion-based episodes, so while I enjoyed it, it wasn’t my favorite. But the odd part of the episode was Henry just then suddenly telling Frank about the son he & Frank’s mother had before Frank—a boy who died at eighteen months old from cancer. After Frank had to deal with Joe’s death, Henry just NOW telling him that he knew how it felt to lose a son? Just seemed…odd to me. Regardless, I love the show, even when I find certain details strange. 🙂

On tonight’s episode, “Warriors,” when a 10-year-old boy is the victim of an incident in the projects, Danny’s heated approach to the case lands him in anger management class. Meanwhile, Frank navigates the politics of the State Department and the Turkish Government in order to help a young Turkish woman avoid persecution.

See if anger management does Danny any good tonight on CBS at 10/9c. Learn where to find episodes online of Blue Bloods @ Clicker.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Last Man Standing, Malibu Country, & CSI: NY.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 2/8/13

I am loving all the snow we’ve been getting because winter is really one of my favorite seasons. I don’t even mind driving in it. My pet peeve is everyone else who is driving in it. You know who I’m talking about… The genius who is going 20 mph in the fast lane on the highway, even though the road is clear—those paste eaters are what causes accidents. If you don’t feel comfortable driving in snow, STAY HOME!! 🙂 Now, onto a less ranting part of the post… Tonight is filled with excellent new TV, so let’s see what you should be watching.

Megan’s Choice

bluebloods28smallBlue Bloods still sits on the list of shows I watch live as often as I can because of the quality cast. The story lines at times are a little slow moving, but the cast makes me love the show regardless. I will admit there are times when I’m watching that I see Donny Wahlberg and suddenly get the urge to sing “Step by Step,” but that’s part of the charm. He’s sexy as the no-nonsense detective, but my heart is wrapped around Jamie (Will Estes). That boy can make a girl swoon. *sigh* Okay, so I may have more reasons for watching than just a love of crime dramas… Sexy casts go a long way to entice me. 😀

On tonight’s episode, “Men in Black,” before a Hasidic Grand Rebbe passes away, he chooses his youngest son to succeed him. But when the new appointee dies suddenly, Danny investigates the oldest son and others within the Hasidic community. Meanwhile, Henry reveals a family secret to Frank.

To see if Danny can solve the murder in such a close-knit community, tune into CBS at 10/9c. Learn where to find episodes online of Blue Bloods @ Clicker.

I’ll also be watching Touch, CSI: NY, Spartacus, and The Job.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 1/18/13

Thank God it’s finally Friday—I am more than ready for this weekend. I have been under the weather with a throat infection and am looking forward to a weekend filled with playing TV catch up and drinking tea. Let’s see what’s on tonight to get our weekends started right.

Megan’s Choice

csiny118smallCSI: NY continues to be my favorite of the franchise; the original has become boring, but the NY team never fails to keep my attention. I hopeful that Mac will finally manage to overcome his memory loss from the shooting, but more importantly that he’ll start leaning on people more. Lindsay and Danny remain my favorite couple on the show, and I love how well they give each other space to grow, yet are always there when it counts. Finally, we have the intricate writing that makes me sit on the edge of my seat week after week. Overall, if you haven’t been giving this show a chance, smarten up and watch.

On tonight’s episode, “Nine Thirteen,” the team investigates when a masked man is found at the bottom of a skyscraper with a history of suspicious deaths.

To see if there’s any connection between all the crimes, tune into CBS at 9/8c. Learn where to find episodes online of CSI: NY @ Clicker.

I’ll also be watching Blue Bloods and Fringe.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 1/11/13

TGIF! It’s been kind of a long week, so I’m excited for the weekend. 🙂 And tonight’s new TV is a great way to usher in the relaxation of the weekend, so check out what we think you should be watching. 🙂

Jenny’s Choice

csiny111smallI love CSI: NY because I just really love the characters. The cases are good, too, but the characters are what keep me tied to the show more than anything. Last week, when Jo figured out that the angel sending a million dollars to seemingly random people around the city was actually Sid, it wasn’t too huge a surprise for me. I figured it out pretty quickly after Jo started looking into it. But Sid’s announcement to her that he had cancer was incredibly sad and kind of shocking. And I loved Flack and Lovato on their date and finally kissing! That was great. 😀

On tonight’s episode, “Civilized Lies,” when a beloved off-duty NYPD officer perishes in a robbery, the CSIs use the art of interrogation to break down their suspects and get to the truth.

See how the New York CSIs get to the truth tonight on CBS at 9/8c. Learn where to find episodes online of CSI: NY @ Clicker.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Last Man Standing, Malibu Country, Fringe, Blue Bloods, & Mystery Diners.
