slmv('Hey, mang, I so tired.') Didn't get enough sleep, as usual. Oh, the other day, I got the answers to some questions I've had for a long time. They weren't the answers I wanted, but now I know them.
TV commentary:
So House is actually pain free and happy for an ep, because he learns that methadone gets rid of the pain. Cuddy and Wilson freak out, and Cuddy gives him an ultimatum, so House chooses Methadone. So of course Cuddy compromises and is all, "Please don't leave, I'll give you all the methadone you want, but it has to be administered by myself or a trained nurse." Unfortunately, House was all nice and polite that he humored the CotW's parents, and that actually causeds the real CotW. So he quits the methadone, playing the martyr, saying he needs the pain to do the job.

On Chuck, Anna's back, with nary an explanation. I guess she was around, just not onscreen. I wonder if she had other commitments. And what does she think happened to her new bf? Or did she choose Morgan regardless of that? Speaking of Morgan, that flashback in the beginning weirds me out, because they were kids when I was a junior in high school. When did I start being older than characters on show like this?
And is it me or is "Smooth Lau" a pretty cool name? The fight with her and Sarah in the car was kinda interesting, I like how they used their environment- the seatbelt, ejecting a CD and breaking it off to try and stab the other with it, etc. But really, Chuck and Sarah flip flop every ep. Last week, its all, "we'll never be more than what we are!" and this week Chuck sees how distraught she was about thinking he was dead that they're holding hands and Chuck telling her she's family. Doesn't that make their thing kinda incestuous then?
And what's with the Chinese Ambassador's bodyguards detaining Casey even though he showed them his NSA badge, but Sarah shows up, all "I'm CIA" and they trust he immediately. Then again, I guess she wasn't chasing them for blocks.
Oh, and Jeffster doing Toto's "Africa"? Awesome! (But not Awesome enough for Awesome's wedding)

On 24, I'm confused as to whether the database would be released upon his or Marika's death. I mean, having a chip inside you that had a database of all the conspirators in the government is a far cry from a foolproof insurance policy! I mean, what if they blew him up. So I'm assuming in addition to having a chip inside him (and what if he needed to update it?!), he had some backup plan so if something happened, the data got released from somewhere else. Plus it makes the whole thing with the Prez worrying that their only lead would be gone if Dubaku died, when they would get all their answers.
I'm also surprised they did uncover all the moles. Besides Sean, Erica was on also. They get the chip from Dubaku, Chloe downloads it, but the affair-y couple crash the system, and then Sean kills Erica to make it look like she was the only mole. But, Chloe was mirroring everything she was doing, so she did get the list and uncovered Sean as well. Heh, they find out Red's aide is one, and Jack wonders if Red is too (you know he wants it to be so he can get out of the mess he's in, particularly since the Prez has to "think" about giving Jack a pardon), but he's not. And heh, even if you didn't see next week's preview, Red's aide's reaction to them going to the White House is a giveaway for when the next attack Tony heard about is taking place.
Ha, when Renee was all distraught because Marika's sister was pissed at her for not protecting Marika, and she slaps Jack asking if he feels anything, I totally thought they were gonna make out.

On Heroes, so HRG is secretly working with Angela to gain the Hunter's trust. And as I said before, Daphne's still alive. I knew they wouldn't just kill her off so nonchalantly. Oh, and given the whole Peter can only absorb one power at a time now, how was he able to fly off with Matt?
