Quit acting like Pollyanna, you frickin' killed a guy!

So the newest Harry Potter trailer is out. Interesting, there's a scene I noticed in there that I'm surprised they have since they totally ignored a certain thing for the last couple of movies. ( spoiler cut )

I mean, they did change how Harry's breakup with Cho went down in the movies, even though it makes little sense now. I mean, I've always like Harry with Ginny, but still, in the books, Cho broke up with Harry b/c of Hermoine's curse on Cho's friend Marietta who revealed the DA to the bad guys. So they had a row over her thinking he was too close to Hermione, particularly with him taking her side over all that. But in the movies, they think its Cho who betrayed them, but she was under the effects of a potion. So, he was mad at her initially, but he found out about the potion. So, there was no real reason for him to break up with her in the movies. I mean, who dumps a cute Asian girl with a hot Scottish accent? I mean, the whole Anglo-based accent (English/Irish/Aussie/What have you) is HOTT, but non-white chick with such an accent, HOTTER!

Oh, heh, the new Freddie W video with Shenae Grimes of 90210 and Degrassi fame is pretty cool:

Its got a fun Mr and Mrs. Smith feel, along with an amusing twist ending. (Oh, ha, I just noticed the pun there!) But heh, Annie's gone from killing hobos (and "paying her dues" with only a summer of house arrest and probation until she's 25. FOR FRICKIN' RUNNING OVER A HOMELESS GUY!) to mowing down guys left and right. HOTT! Well, the shooting guys up part. Getting drunk because all the cool kids shunned her at some party and accidentally hitting a hobo, and then covering it up for a year before turning herself in, and getting off practically scot free for vehicular manslaughter is kinda messed up. Speaking of, I didn't realize Liam also voiced Anakin in the clone wars cartoon.

Jeez, these TV shows nowadays have too many web connections. I mean, Community has their twittersode before tonight's season premiere. I already follow too many people on twitter, including the actors of Community. Now they want me to follow their alter-egos as well? Though I guess I don't actually have to follow them to read their tweets. Since the link above lists all the relevant twitter accounts I guess I can just click on them to see what I need to, If I felt like it.

Then this week's 90210 preview for next week's ep indicates Ade was gonna sing one of songs she pilfered from the accident at Javier's funeral (I know Ivy's mom said the music company wanted her to, but she's got to worry that's bad juju, even if Javier was a total dick to her right before he died) and someone filmed it and uploaded it to youtube and it goes viral. But they have actually posted it to youtube as if it were a real vid.

TV Commentary:

Raising Hope- I wasn't actually too interested in this from the previews, but clevemire said it was good, so I checked it out. And I enjoyed it. Though sometimes I worry I have like emotional problems or something, having gotten verklempt over the end of the ep. (The same thing happened the other day over a friggin Christmas ep of the Ghost Whisper I had left it on while eating dinner. WTF?!) He had mentioned the mother was some famous actress that I'd know some time during dinner at Yeah! Burger with the usual suspects, but I didn't find out until later it was Bijou Phillips. Who I've always had a thing for. Actually, she looked pretty good in this. Though honestly, I'm skeptical they would do what they did there. Its like she said, they would never do that!

NCIS- rjv('Cold blooded!') ( spoiler cut )

Life Unexpected- What the hell? Because Baze needs the money, Lux tries the convince the teacher dude not to turn down the apartment just because of her. How do they expect nothing to go on between them if they have that temptation? Sure, she splits her time between Cate's and Baze's, but I still think that would be totally ccv('Inappropriate!'). I mean, a young male teacher living with a 16 year old student not related to him? I guess Math's in that same sitch, and I'm surprised that's not frowned upon either! She's already viewed as an outsider, surely the rumor mills would be in an uproar that she sometimes lived with not one but two teachers?! Even if nothing happened with her and teacher guy, if the fact that they kissed (before he knew she was underaged and she knew he was her new English teacher) got out, they would totally think something happened if they lived together. So he is wise to not take the room. I'm slightly disappointed though, because that means Math or Baze won't walk in to them doing something suspicious and Baze totally kicking the guy's ass. Because I think he easily could! ( more stuff, cut for spoilers )

Glee- heard previews for next week's songs- Apparently they're doing: Toxic (group number), Baby One More Time (Rachel), Stronger (Artie), I'm a Slave 4 U (Brittany), Me Against the Music (Brit and Santana), and Paramore's "The Only Exception" (Rachel). Interesting, Mike and Brit are the only ones we haven't heard sing solo yet, but now we know what HeMo's voice sounds like. She's not too bad. I don't think she's as good as the other girls, but she does fine with the songs she has here.

Hawaii Five-0- Surprising number of relatively known guest stars in this. And I don't recall the original Hawaii Five-0, but I didn't think it was this action packed. It seems a little more Miami Vice than Hawaii Five-0. And holy crap Boomer looks hot in skimpy bikinis!

Shut the front door!

G-D, there's too much TV on Thursday.

TV commentary:

Community- ( spoiler cut )

30 Rock- I dunno why, but I found that whole Geico joke extremely hilarious in that "Its funny because its true" ways. I mean, why the hell does Geico have 4 spokespeople?! The Cavemen, the Gecko, the money with the eyes, and the Rod Sterling-ish guy. Its not like one replaced the other, because new ones of each spring up from time to time. It just seems kinda weird to have all the different ad campaigns.

The Office- Oh, weird, new credits! ( spoiler cut )
