Thursday Night Musings

Two posts in one day? I rule. That, or I don't have a life.

Mmmkay, so tonight is my big TV night. I watch approximately 2-3 hours of tv a week, max. I always watch Desperate Housewives and Grey's Anatomy, and I'm really digging this season's Survivor, so I try to watch that too, when I can. Since the latter two fall on the same night, consecutively, Thursday becomes my big tv night.

It was an interesting night, tv wise, to say the least. First with Survivor:

1. MARCUS IS GONE. He's been gone for a week but I still miss him. At least he's in the jury so I get to see him (albeit briefly) in every episode.

2. Charlie got voted out! Sadness.

3. How the eff does anyone like Ken? Over at the IMDB boards, he's a popular player. Why? And how? He's an annoying lame-o without any social skills. Plus, his moustache makes him look like a rat. It didn't help that he did an all-too-good impression of a rat. He will henceforth be known as Rat Boy. I hope he doesn't win, but right now, I think he will.

4. Crystal, argh. She won a gold medal in track (Wikipedia tells me she won in the 4x400 m race in the 2004 summer Olympics, held in Athens) but she's freaking useless on Survivor. Plus she refers to herself in the third person, which...no. Just don't.

5. So, apparently, in the season opener during a challenge, Marcus's penis fell out of his boxers when he started running! Heh. I'm so mature, I know, but I think it's funny that it didn't 100% get past the censors. Lord only knows that there's way too much censored girl boob in any given episode; it's about time an attractive guy got a little too exposed! Incidently, there's a video of it online. Just beware, though, that it's only available on a gay porn site. I have nothing against gay people, I just (for some reason) was not expecting to see a bunch of pictures of guys making out when I went to go watch the film clip.

Also, is it wrong that I got a little turned on by the video of Marcus? I think it is. Just a tad.

6. Bob is completely and 100% awesome. I love him, he's a rockstar. Bob for the win!

7. Matty, dude, what the HELL is with your laugh? I tried to YouTube a clip of it, because it freaks me out so much, but no such luck. It vaugely reminds me of that character Eddie, who appeared on a couple of Friends episodes back in the day. High-pitched and flat out creepy. Expect Matty's laugh is way, WAY creepier. Especially last week, in their immunity challenge, when he started laughing maniacally. I'm telling you, Matty's off his rocker. He's totally the type of guy who will kill you in your sleep then bury you in the jungle. Just sayin'...

My prediction: everyone I like will get voted off, leaving the annoying ones (Rat Face, Crystal and Susie or Matty) to win. Damn.

Okay, now. On to Grey's Anatomy.

1. The Denny thing. When Denny died I CRIED LIKE A BABY. For days. Even now, whenver I hear Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol, I get emotional. It's a Pavloivan response, I think. Every time he comes back on the show, I cry. (Because I'm weird like that.)

But, the hell? What is going on? Why can Izzie touch and KISS Denny? He's dead! She must have a tumor or something, because that's just not right. And next week, when she has sex with Denny?

Just...ghost sex? Really? How? And why, most importantly? I love Denny, but...what the hell?

2. Where the hell was George tonight?

3. I miss Erica Hahn. Weird.

4. I kinda wish they'd stop adding new characters. I like Dr. McArmy, but it's just a bit much when every week they're doing a cast switcharoo.

I think I'm bitching too much, so I'll add in some things I liked:

5. Callie's breakdown in the ER? Beautifully done, Sara Ramirez. Brava to you.

6. The Callie-Mark friendship. Loving it. I like them better as friends than I do as lovers, but that's just me.

7. At first I was like ok, what's up with Dr. Dixon? She's a little strange. And then she reveals she has Asperger's. And then I felt like a douchebag. (Or as I like to say, a douchebagette, since I'm a girl and all.) But the reason why I liked this is because that's so Grey's - punching you in the face with a revelation that you just didn't see coming. And I love it.

8. The Cristina/McArmy kiss was hot. So hot that it totally warrants both bold and italicize for one word. Yes, I went there!

I guess that's all I have to say for now. Perhaps Thursday Night Musings will become a regular, or perhaps not. We'll see.

Coming soon, some BSC snark! Watch for it.
