If We Controlled Your Remote… 7/15/11

Posted on July 15, 2011 by , and

Thank God it’s Friday! It’s been a long week, but there were some fantastic episodes on TV, so that helped a lot! Tonight is no different, with the series finale of one show, the season premiere of another, and a couple of new episodes of some others. Friday night TV is suddenly not nearly as boring, so read on to see what we think you should watch.

The last couple of episodes of Flashpoint have been chock full of goodness! The team was put under review and are now on probation, Ed was shot on his way to see his wife deliver their baby, the team hunted down the drug dealer shooter, Ed pulled through and his wife had the kid, the team was allowed to stay together (although they are on probation), and Jules and Sam are back together (secretely). Just lots going on! Hopefully, tonight’s episode will be just as good!

Tonight, when a cop who mistakenly shot and killed a young boy is declared innocent, Team One confronts a rioting crowd and the father whose dreams died the night he lost his son.

Check it out tonight on CBS at 8/7c. Learn where to find episodes online of Flashpoint @ Clicker.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 7/8/11

Posted on July 8, 2011 by , and

It’s amazing how quickly this month is flying by. Before I know it, I’ll be on plane to Comic-Con and bringing you all updates on your favorite stars and shows! The hardest part will be leaving my kids, but I’m sure that seeing the cast of shows like True Blood and Glee will soothe me a little. 😉 Although, I’m not sure who is going to soothe my husband as he’s left to play mommy for a few days. I’m sure he’ll survive… I hope. 🙂 Enough about my travels. Let’s see what’s on television tonight.

Friday night is one of the slower nights for television, but there are a few things on to watch. I’m suggesting you watch the season premiere of Say Yes to the Dress: Bridesmaids. You’ve seen the brides stress over their perfect dress, but now we get to watch the battle of the bridesmaids. Will they end up in hideous dresses or something that they actually like? It’s drama picking a wedding dress, but getting all the bridesmaids to agree on the the same dress? That’s insanity.

On tonight’s season premiere episode, we meet the staff of ‘Bridals by Lori’. Then a bride wants her bridesmaids to wear fur muffs for her winter wedding, and a difficult bridesmaid refuses to be in her friend’s wedding unless she gets the dress she likes.

Tune in to TLC at 10/9c for the season premiere. Learn where to find episodes online of Say Yes To the Dress: Bridesmaids @ Clicker.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 6/24/11

Well, thank goodness it’s Friday, but I want my Thursday back, darnit! About 3:00 on Thursday afternoon, our cable cut out, which took out not only our TV but our internet, as well. *cry* They’ve been cutting down a tree in back, and we can only guess that had something to do with it… lol My husband FINALLY was able to get ahold of someone after 5:30, but the earliest they could come out was Friday between 4:00 & 9:00. Ugh. Thankfully, nearly everything from Thursday night TV will repeat! I’d already seen the Rookie Blue premiere, so Scott missed it, and we both missed the new show on ABC. Aside from the results show on FOX, it’s all good. Hopefully they will have it fixed as soon as possible, although since I only have 1 thing on tonight that I’m watching… eh. Right now, I’m piggy-backed on to someone’s WiFi. Shhh! Since I’m only using it to get this and the Friday schedule posted, I figure they won’t mind! Anyway, enough about me. On to what everyone else thinks you should watch! – Jenny

It’s a slow night, so while I don’t usually suggest reality type television, I’m going to go with Say Yes to the Dress: Big Bliss on TLC. There’s something to be said for the drama that wedding dress shopping brings, but add being plus-sized to that, and it’s a traumatic roller coaster. The people that work at Kleinfeld are fabulous at helping the girls find the dress of their dreams and dealing with the crazy family.

On tonight’s episode, Zaneta wants a sexy dress that shows off her curves; Alyse, who’s always felt overshadowed by her younger sister, searches for her wedding gown; Rheagan’s dress fitting is bittersweet.

Tune in to TLC at 9/8c and see if you can handle the wedding dress drama. Learn where to find episodes online of Say Yes to the Dress: Big Bliss @ Clicker.

Thank goodness it’s Friday! Seriously, it’s been kind of a long week, and there hasn’t been a ton of new TV on to take away the dullness of the week. lol (But that does mean we were able to catch the last 2 episodes of Breakout Kings and the next to last episode of Chuck we had on the DVR. *laugh* This weekend, we’ll watch the season finales of Chuck, Body of Proof, and the final 2 episodes of Breaking In. For tonight, though, there are a few new episodes worth mentioning, so read on to see what Megan, Lisa, and I recommend!

Flashpoint has been strong this season. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed each and every episode, and tonight looks to be no different. For one thing, Spy Daddy is back! Victor Garber (Alias) guest stars on tonight’s ep, which makes me very, very happy, although I’m not going to be fond of his character. AT. ALL. Still… It’s Spy Daddy!

On tonight’s episode, an outsider is brought in to perform some psychological testing on Team One, which causes them to turn on each other, fearing that someone will be let go. On the way to the hospital to witness the birth of his child, something happens that might prevent Ed from seeing the delivery.

Don’t miss what is sure to be an explosive new episode on CBS at 8/7c. Learn where to find episodes online of Flashpoint @ Clicker.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 6/3/11

I haven’t said Thank God It’s Friday and meant it this much in a darn long time. This has been an almost completely, utterly boring week for TV, with only a few bright spots, like TNT’s new Franklin and Bash and NBC’s Love Bites. Starting next week, the summer shows begin to come back, including one of my very favorites, A&E’s The Glades. Jason, @theTVaholic, will be guest posting with us next week to help cover the new episodes, so that’ll be great. Until then, check out what we think you should be watching tonight. 🙂

I really enjoy the Canadian drama, Flashpoint, which airs here in the US on CBS during the late spring/early summer. I haven’t looked it up, but I *think* the Strategic Response Unit is like the Canadian version of a SWAT team here in the US. If I’m wrong, someone please correct me. That’s just the best comparison I have, I think. Regardless, the show is always high action, intense, and very dramatic, and it keeps me on the edge of my seat almost every episode.

Tonight, Jules finds herself mired in jeopardy when she becomes trapped in the same restaurant as a gun-wielding man, and Team One must try and calm the gunman down while uncovering the knowledge that he is being used as a weapon against a mosque.
