geebsTV Commentary:
HIMYM- Aw, Marshall and Lily ship Barney and Robin? Even going so far as to sit on the same side of the table so they can sit next to each other. Its a little silly that Barney didn't realize Marshall knew. I mean, he should know Lily tells Marshall everything! And Robin has to have some inkling. He called her the greatest woman in the world! Though I guess its confirmed that everyone but her knows.
Chuck- Couldn't Morgan have explained that Buster tricked him into getting Big Mike demoted? Though I guess either option was bad for Big Mike, b/c Morgan only agreed because that would make Big Mike busy again and not give him time for his mother.
So Jill's back. A lot of people were mad when she ended up being evil, because it made things rather easy and convenient. And it also took away from Chuck's problems at Stanford. Bryce getting him kicked out to protect him, that's fine. But if Jill was Fulcrum, then it made everything fine in the end. At least now it seems they made it more clear she wasn't that bad, she just got dragged into the thing- I would think being recruited by a close family friend would make it easier for Fulcrum to get her to follow the company line. She did some bad things, but it almost seemed like one she was in, she was stuck.
Anyways, so who told her family she was in Prague when she got arrested? I guess its convenient plot wise so they have an excuse to meet with her Uncle, but I figured when they picked her up those episodes ago, they just disappeared her. I guess her Uncle knew she was captured, maybe he told them so they wouldn't worry? He is supposed to be her dad's best friend.
House- Ah, I guess with one less Cottage, Cameron and Chase get more screen time. But HA on Cuddy "marking her territory" and worrying she's back to being in love with House. So anyways, she freaks out when she finds out Chase is going to propose, and worries he's only doing that because of Kutner's death? But after a talking to from House (who even though he was sure those weren't the reasons she was acting funny, seemed kinda disappointed that it wasn't her trying to get her job back or trying to hook up with House. It is too bad she's not back on the team, she and 13 would make for a pretty good 3some) and Chase actually dumping her, she decides to propose to him. Or rather "proposes he proposes"? That does kinda have to be awkard irl though. I mean, in real life they broke up and called off their engagement, but their characters get into a similar situation but it works out?
Oh, and Wilson effs with House by just doing something totally random like changing his diet so House will drive himself crazy trying to figure out and learn he hasn't lost his mojo, there are just some things you can't figure out. So House is happy and playing a song. Until he starts hallucinating CTB! Yes! It sucked they got rid of her, so any excuse to have her back is fine, no matter how silly. I'm curious what that's all about?
24- Ah, looks like Elisha Cuthbert's back on 24. I'm a little skeptical of ain't it cool's comment about she being as old now as Jack was when the show first started. Someone's smoking something. Yeah, the 24 verse is several years ahead given each season skipped ahead more than a few years. Ain't it cool said its been 17 years, but I don't think its that far ahead, is it?! I guess it has been almost 8 years since the show started, and a couple of times they had three or more years pass between seasons. Even if has been 17 years, no way was Jack 33 when the show first started (going by the previous claim, given she was 16 first season, so 16+17=33) That means he had her while he was still in high school, and we know that's not the case because his father was all ready to groom him to succeed him in the corporate world, and everything was going along that path (and I'm sure a knocked up teenage girl would throw a wrench in those plans) when Jack decided to join the military.
Anyways, I was wondering how they were going to have Kim get there so quickly. But it kinda makes sense, apparently she had been trying to find him, and now that he was on National TV, testifying in front of a Senata subcommittee, she knew exactly where he was, and she'd been trying to get a hold of him all day. But even though he sent Kim away after their little reunion, I'm sure that's not the last we've seen of her. Particularly since they had a scene with Larry saying aloud that Kim Bauer was there and Tony all, "Hmm, that's interesting." Its like, gee, I wonder if that exchange will be important later?
Particularly since Tony is evil again! What the?! So he stopped Starkwood, but apparently he wants a canister for some reason? And he killed poor Larry. But his fate was sealed once he became a genuinely nice guy who thought Bauer was okay. I had a feeling something was up though when that one guy disappeared after doing a perimeter and never ended up trying to stop Tony.
And what the hell, classic 24, the bad guy is not the main bad guy. So there's something even bigger than a PMC allied with a dictator and a conspiracy that's infiltrated every level of government?! Who the hell are these other bad guys, and where were they? I mean, if Hodges considers himself a cog, and he's in the position he is in, doesn't that mean there's other people of similar influence or more powerful wanting to do stuff to the government? At this point, is there anyone who isn't an enemy?!
Heroes: Ah, I was trying to figure out where I saw young Angela before, but I guess it was that ep of Supernatural with the family in the house with the creepy kids living in the walls? Oh, and apparently she's also the chick Jamie Lynn Spears got fired off her show? Young Alice was of course the girl who played young Sarah Silverman/Sarah Silverman's daughter on the Sarah Silverman show, who is of course also the younger sister irl of Luke's daughter on Gilmore Girls. I know I know young Charles from somewhere though. According to imdb, he was in that one ep of Cold Case where he was one of a set of brothers that got killed over the span of a decade (one of the more depressing and tragic eps of that show) But I swear I've seen him in something else. Maybe its because from some angles he looks like a bigger Phil LaMarr.
And older Alice was of course Diana Scarwid. She's been a bunch of stuff. Prison Break, Pushing Daisies. Her character on Lost seemed all mysterious (I mean, "the sheriff"?), but they never did anything else with her afterwards.
So Coyote Sands was an "camp" for powered folks that Mo's father (played by Bug from Crossing Jordan) used to work at?! How does that work? I guess they implied Charles' power is similar to Maury's. And heh, interesting and time-appropriate scene they demonstrated it in. He and Angela dance b/c she missed prom, so he "pushes" the shocked locals into minding their business when they see a white girl dancing with a colored boy.
But what the, they kinda implied she had something going on once with Hiro's dad, and given how Charles, Elle's dad, and Linderman all seemed to like her (I mean, Charles seemed definitely interested, Bob did the whole shy "no I don't find her cute thing", and c'mon, like Linderman didn't heal her leg scar just so he could creepily touch her leg?) she really gets around. What a slut!
Oh, but back to my point, they referenced the whole killing/making people forget thing started with them. So did they just mindwipe Mo's dad (possibly Charles, given they imply he's a powerful telepath), and he just re-discovered powered people by coincidence years later?!
And interesting, Sylar's disguised as Nathan now? So this time, instead of having Candace's power to look like Nate, he's using Shapeshifting? I thought they implied he had to touch the person he wanted to turn into? So how is he doing the Nathan thing?
