Weekly Rundown

by Toni

I’m just as happy with Big Bang Theory this week as I have been. It’s just funny. I love Sheldon as much as ever, too. He’s so wonderfully anal. I loved the Doctor Who reference, since I’m a huge fan, and I loved when he kept saying, “Every Saturday since we’ve moved into this apartment . . . .” His single-mindness is awesome. Plus, I really, really loved this exchange with Penny:

Sheldon: It’s Halo night.
Penny: Well for Penny, it’s dancing night.
Sheldon: Do you go dancing every Wednesday?
Penny: No.
Sheldon: Then it’s not dancing night.

Even though the ep was about sex, again, they did a good job because they still managed to keep it clean and funny, rather than crude. I like that. Another line I liked: Sheldon: Where do I begin? Leonard: It’s up to you, crazy person’s choice. *giggle* I’m gonna be so very sad when this thing has to go on hiatus because of the writer’s strike. I hear it will happen soon, too.

Carpoolers was also pretty good this week. I loved the whole Joanifer thing. Like when she appeared and the dark clouds followed her, and when Marmaduke backed away into the bushes to avoid her. I’m glad that Laird finally figured it out and din’t go back to her. They made it funny, but you see it happen all the time when people go back into abusive relationships and it’s not a joke. Besides, we like to see Laird as the swining single guy, right?

Back to You was OK. They did not take my advice and show more of Gary, so I’m a little mad at them anyway! The best part for me was when the named the kid “Xander” and his mother was Charisma Carpenter (Cordelia from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel). I love when stuff like that happens. Meaning, Buffy stuff. I like to see anyone from Buffy in anything else, cause I love those guys! *sob* Plus, since my husband went to school in Pittsburgh, it was fun watching Montana not be able to say Monongahela. From what I’ve read, this show is gonna be another one to feel the pinch of the strike soon.

I’m less and less interested in Samantha Who? I want to like it, but I’m kinda bored.
