You know, because of the implication

Some quick shots first:
Modern Family- While it was a hilarious scene, that whole thing with the grandma's picture coming out of the printer would freak me the hell out if that happened to me! I mean, they ask if her ghost is in the room, and then a picture of her face suddenly prints out in the printer?
Cougar Town- Weirdly enough, Cougar Town also had a faux ghost thing going on. Speaking of though, Ellie letting that one guy accidentally believe her baby was dead to get him to do stuff for her? Totally messed up! Ida know, I've always thought when crafting a lie, its extremely bad juju for the lie to involve someone who's alive being dead. You might jinx them!
SVU- Hey, its JLH! Oh, since I saw L&O LA before I watched SVU, I didn't realize they had a little connection there by having Skeet show up to help Olivia. Speaking of, L&O: LA was kinda boring, I couldn't bother to pay attention. Though it did have the cute Danielle Panabaker playing a LiLo type.
30 Rock- Oh, from reading the forums, I apparently missed when someone (Jack?) gave "always put crisps in your sandwiches" as advice. I'm always amused when I hear TV characters doing that, because it makes me feel like less of a freak. Odd thing though, I only put potato chips on sandwiches I make myself. I don't do that on samiches made by others or I get from subway or jersey mike's or firehouse or jimmy john's or what have you. ( spoiler cut )
IASIP- Wow, Dennis is a monster, that's all I have to say. Of course, they're all monsters on this show, but that was pretty dark!
Glee- Was this past week's Glee the most controversial ever? Not in terms of content. I mean, it was its highest ratings ever (apparently people love Britney Spears more than Madonna or Lady Gaga?), was second place for the night behind NCIS, and was the first time a show's ratings went up the next ep after a season premiere. But, it seems to me viewers either totally loved it or thought it was the worst ep ever. I guess one's feelings on Britney Spears influenced their feelings on the ep, but since the first 2/3 of the show were them basically recreating Britney Spears videos and little plot, that seemed to really irk people. I wouldn't say I grew up with Britney, since I was already grown up when she started, but I for one enjoyed the nostalgia at seeing throwbacks to all those old music videos.
It didn't help that there were some really gross moments from Jewfro, which some people thought were a little too much. So people who didn't like the Brit re-enactments, but loved the version of Toxic at the school assembly (which was the only one of the songs in the ep was an interpretation of the song rather than a straight cover) felt they coulda done without him and Twilight Girl going all crazy.
Vampire Diaries- Interesting reveals in this ep. ( spoiler cut )
