Thanks so much for your patience in this.
And now, your recap of "Survivor: The Finale"
It started by dividing the tribes along racial lines and it ended with a white, two Asians, a Latino and one African-American making it to the final five.
The two hour-finale went pretty much as I expected. Adam was eliminated after failing to win immunity and the Fantastic Four was the Final Four.
Before then we had to suffer through the "Survivor" cliche of let's honor those who've been voted off before. I honestly had to think hard to remember who some of these people were though.
"It's like bad performance art.
" - host Jeff Probst to the Survivors during a here's mud in your eye challenge.
We're on the home stretch folks with six days left. Parvati states the obvious several times: She and Adam are the underdogs.
Based on the amount of screentime she's getting, I'm guess she may be the boot for the night.
The reward challenge involves the Survivors dumping themselves in mudd and trying to fill a bucket with as much mud as possible.
The winner sends someone to Exile Island and gets a spa night with the No 2 and No.
3 finishers.
Ding-dong! This season's villian now is GONE!
!!
In one of the more light-hearted episodes of the season, Jonathan is defending himself saying how he deserved to be sitting with the Fantastic Four.
Parvati and Adam realize their gooses may be cooked and do some fast maneuvering to stay in the game.
Two things, kinda go their way. One, Parvati gets injured while cutting a coconut and that brings some sympathy to her because the rest of the tribe gathers around while she's being stitched up.
The second, we'll get to in a moment.
At the reward challenge, the Survivors have to get water in a bucket while blindfolded. But they have help from their loved ones who are shouting to them where to splash water where they can catch it.
Has anybody else noticed that the less "Grey's" focuses on the McHormone hook-ups, the more interesting the male characters get?
Derek, Preston, Richard, George, and even Karev, are relating to each other in different ways and we're liking it. They're competing, they're fighting, they're talking, they're opening up, they're questioning themselves.
Hmm, seems like the show's writers are trying to give their rabid female fans even more of what they want: sex AND emo.
One exception: Sloane needs to get his sexyback. Without his lascivious ways he's too one-dimensional.
The only thing interesting about him right now is that he has the interns fetch him cappuccino. Hey, we need the cappuccino to stay awake with that one.
The men are making up some serious ground -- the female characters have been better developed all along.
The current feel for the show makes that male-bonding in the woods episode seem even more lame than when it aired.
Maybe that off-screen tussle between Patrick Dempsey and Isaiah Washington has fueled this on-screen intensity. Whatever's going on, we think "Grey's" is by far the best show on television.
Last season it was a fun romp, a guilty pleasure. This year, it's just a pleasure.
And welcome back, the real Dr.
Miranda Bailey. All that compassion and love-showing was getting tedious.
From the opening shot of a rat to rats sprinkled throughout the broadcast, we learn that if you're seen as a rat, then your day will come.
Unfortunately for the viewers, Jonathan the rat survives ANOTHER round.
It's obvious at this point, that he'll make the final four and even the final two because people WANT to go up against him so they'll be victorious. Wouldn't it truly be a slap in the face if the jury actually AWARDED Jonathan the money?
But I digress, this episode starts with Parvati ripping Jonathan a new one after the Tribal Council.
Remember a few months back, when Moe the R.A.
told Wallace that the sociology-class prison experiment was a life-changing experience? Turns out he meant, "a life-changing experience that changed me into the kind of guy who helps another guy rape girls."
Moe and Mercer, two creepy guys who do scary things together.
And if you say you saw THAT one coming, you deserve an autographed copy of Mac's imaginary "Porn Star" glitter tube top. As for Rob Thomas and Co., they deserve real kudos and bear hugs for ending the campus-rape plot with a bunch of bangs, a new cliffhanger and one postal Logan.
Closure! Cliffhanger! Postal Logan!
Ladies and gentleman, hook up your espresso IV's and prepare for the recap, because this show was a doozy.
Nothing gets the heart beating like a finale episode of Prison Break.
And before I get ahead of myself, I'd like everyone to stand up and give a round of applause to what I figure to be the television debut of the Alibi.
It was labeled as being a war veterans bar in Pratt, Kansas, but we all know it's really in Hillcrest.
But I digress.
This was the one we all were waiting for.
Strap in "Heroes" watchers because we're going to go all over the map in this recap.
In this riveting episode of "Heroes" we see how many of our favorite characters discovered their powers and we got a peek inside their lives six months ago.
We start off where we left last episode with Hiro telling Charlie that he's from the future and he's trying to save her life.
Chandra Suresh is seeking out those who might have have the genetic mutation that might make them special. He's starts out by visiting the Brooklyn watch repair shop of Gabriel Gray who immediately detects that Mr. Suresh's watch is a few seconds slow.
Gabriel takes pride in fixing things that are broken and impresses Chandra.
In Los Angeles, Eden is stopped by Matt, the police officer. (I had to remind you who he was because he hasn't been given nearly enough screentime).
He sees she has booze in her fancy car and tries to give her a ticket. She uses her power of suggestion to make him get back in the car and "suggests" that he scarf down some doughnuts. Just as she gets ready to leave, the Haitian shows up and she's captured.
Jonathan has his eyes on the prize and is very disappointed with his tribe.
Which if YOU were doing most of the work around the camp and making fires wouldn't you be?
The new tribe is called: Aituonga which makes sense since Aitu is whooping them week after week.
At the actual merge, food is had and the Raro kids drank until they got drunk.
Adam is too busy to do much but vomit and flirt. (EWWW)
Nate reaches out to Ozzy to try to form an alliance while Yul and Becky discuss what does the fact that Yul has the hidden Immunity Idol mean to the game.
Yul reaches out to Jonathan to form an alliance but Jonathan is iffy about what to do.
On this post-Thanksgiving Day, we're still full -- of emotion over what might have been the best episode of "Grey's Anatomy" yet.
The whole Burke/hand trembling/Yang cover-up storyline finally exploded and left everyone stung in its wake.
Burke and Yang turned on each other with such viciousness we can't believe either one was left standing.
George got a spine and, like a kid with a new toy, didn't know exactly how to deal with it. He lashed out at Callie and Izzy in his least wimpy moments yet.
And speaking of Callie -- how excellent was her getting all cage-match on Meredith?! That was no cat fight, fellow fans, it was a panther vs.
a kitten. Too bad the claws got put away by the truth.
We still don't like where Izzy's character is going (nowhere, quickly) but how exciting and ingenious to pair Karev and Addison romantically.
That would make Izzy the only intern who hasn't hooked up with a resident/full-fledged doc. We hear Sloane is available ..
.
An Easter Egg. A lesbian liplock.
"Bionic Woman," "The Big Lebowski" and "Simpsons" shoutouts.
All of these things laid the foundation to another riveting episode of "Veronica Mars."
The mystery of the week: "Who kidnapped Hearst College heiress/trustee Selma Hearst Rose?
"
We'll get to that in a moment.
We start off with another rape happening on campus. This time: It's Chip, the president of the Pi Sigs.
He's found on the grass at the school with his head shaved. It's revealed later in the episode by Dick (Note to producers, can you give him some more airtime? Oh, and Mac too while you're at it.
Thanks!) that an Easter Egg was used to sodomize him and that the egg contained some Roman numerals. Later in the episode, Wallace (Yay!
) and Veronica do some sleuthing and discover that the numbers point to a specific date at Hearst College. It was on that day that a girl was hurt falling from a roof of a sorority house.
