Just for old times sake...

Remember my obsession with Nikki Grahame (star of BB7 UK and Princess Nikki)? Well just for old times sake I decided to google her to see what was up! I found that she is still quite the little celebrity over there and here are a few clips of her:

Nikki tries to win money for charity:

MARY CHERRY


Few things in this life give me greater pleasure than Leslie Grossman as Mary Cherry on the long lost WB series POPULAR. I think she is just brilliant. To pass a little time (while I get caught up on Big Brother 8) I decided to do a little tribute to the glorious Mary Cherry! Here are some of my favorite Cherry Moments:

I hope you enjoy!

My favorite LOST episodes
season 3


Season 3 was almost as good as season 1. It introduced us to new characters and by the end of the season we really had no idea where the show was going to go in the final three seasons! We are at the halfway point and I'm as excited as I can be to see what happens next.
I have to say, this season was the hardest to pick episodes for! I had so many favorites that I had to edit them down. Just for the record though, if I could have added:
Further Instructions
Trisha Tanaka is Dead
Enter 77
Par Avion
Expose
Left Behind
The Brig
and Greatest Hits
to the list I would have in a heartbeat. They were all good and I think you should check them out too!


So here are my season 3 favorites that made the cut!

A Tale of Two Cities


This is the season premier and what a premier it was! We meet my new favorite character (Juliet) and begin to find out what the Others are all about. This is a Jack flashback, but the island stuff is the real reason to watch!

The Cost Of Living


We finally get to see the monster kill a character in this episode! So that's how it does it! This is an Eko episode but the real action is on island not in flashbacks.

I Do


This was the mini-season finale. They released the first six episodes in the early fall and then went on a huge hiatus. This episode is worth watching for the last five minutes!

Not In Portland



So how is it that Juliet got involved with the Others? This is the episode that explains it all. Very engaging and a great episode to get us back into the swing of things after the mini-season! Wonder how the Others have such loyal followers? Check out their training methods in this episode!



Flashes Before Your Eyes



I have one thing to say about this episode: What the Hell!?!?
Desmond is the focus of this episode and while he may have annoyed me through season 2, he rocks in season 3.

The Man From Tallahassee


Ever wonder how Locke was put in that wheelchair? Well, here is the answer! This episode has it all: mythology, character development, mystery, and what? ANSWERS!

One Of Us



We pick up where Juliet comes to the island and discover there is a lot more to her than we realized in the beginning. We get a better sense of how the Others get their off-island info and we get a nice surprise at the end of the episode!

The Man Behind the Curtain


We finally get to see a Ben flashback! This one is scandalous and awesome! Ben is one screwed up guy. I dare to say his father was slightly more screwed up though. We also get to meet Jacob...well...sorta...



Through the Looking Glass



The third season finale and in my opinion the best one yet. The producers nicknamed the big twist at the end "the rattlesnake" and when you see it you will know why! I was speechless for days!

SEASON 1



SEASON 2

MY FAVORITE LOST EPISODES
Season 2
or what I like to call:
DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE


as the title to this post suggests...
SPOILERS!!! SPOILERS!!!



Of the three seasons of LOST that we've seen so far the second was my least favorite. There were a handful of episode that were great so here we go!!!

Man of Science, Man of Faith


This was the season premier and also the premier of the hatch and it's inhabitant--Desmond! This was also one of the last Jack flashback episodes that was interesting. Over all it was a great season opener and really did a good job of letting us know what to expect for the rest of the season!

The Other 48 Days



WOW. You wanted to know what happened to the tail section of the plane? Well this episode gives you all the answers. A fun (and tragic) look at what happened to the b-list passengers of flight 815.

The 23rd Psalm



This is an Eko-centric episode. I really disliked Eko. I never understood why he was such a fan favorite! I'm supposing it is because whenever an episode focused on him something cool always happened. In this case is was the monster! We finally get a great view of monster!!!

Maternity Leave


Claire annoys me. She REALLY annoys me. Fortunately I was pleasantly surprised at what happened in this Claire-centric episode. We got answers out to HERE!!! We find out what exactly happened to Claire when she was kidnapped for a week during season 1.

SOS



This isn't really one of those episodes that moves the over all story along, but I love it all the same. This is about Rose and Bernard and why they were on flight 815. It is sweet and very much about character rather than mythology. I loved it.

Two for the Road


Scandalous!!!! Pure scandal!!! I couldn't believe what happened at the end of this episode. I hated Ana Lucia and this episode helped me hate her a little less. This episode is really the catalyst for the rest of what happens in the season.

Three Minutes


A Micheal-centric episode. It tells you what happened when he ran off looking for Walt. It's very interesting and definitely should be considered the first part of a three part season finale.

Live Together, Die Alone
parts 1 and 2


The season finale and the answer to what happens when you don't push "the button".
Most certainly a season 2 must see.

Watch for favorite episodes season 3...

Ahhh summer...(yawn)

Well it is summer and unfortunately that means death to television in general! Sorry that it's taken me so long to get back into blog world...my mama passed away in May and I've been a little distracted. Let's get on with a few little tie ups so we can move on to summer shows!

SPOILERS BELOW!!!

ANTM



Congratulations Jaslene!!!

We have our first Latina Top Model! Even though she sounded a bit like a retarded dolphin when she talked I think she did a pretty good job. I think Rene' got robbed! I loved Natasha (and was rooting for her) but Jaslene kicked her butt in the end so...


LOST



What the Hell!?!?! They got off the island!?!? Well, at least Jack and Kate did!!!! There are still three more seasons left! I have no idea what is going to happen here but I think it's going to be good! Bravo for an excellent 3rd season! I think I'm going to go ahead and finish up my favorite episodes of lost blogs so look forward to that in the future!

SURVIVOR: Fiji


huh? Wha?
oh never mind...maybe next time...by the way...Earl won...whatever.

Veronica Mars


Well, it looks like that was that and let me tell ya: They went out with a whimper! How sad...

Ugly Betty



By far my favorite new show of the year! Bad Ass!!! Will Betty and Henry EVER get together? Will Betty's dad ever come home?? What are Hilda and Justin going to do? Amanda is Faye's daughter!?!? Shut up!!! Will Daniel and his brother/sister (Alex/Alexis) survive the car crash!? I can't wait till this show comes back!

Battlestar Gallactica


Starbuck is back!!! Is she the final Cylon?? We still have one more for them to reveal and I personally hope she isn't it! Have they really found Earth? I hear this upcoming season will be it for the show...I hope they wrap it up nicely!!

Ok that is it for now. I know I will be rockin' Big Brother this summer...I'm not sure (yet) if I will focus on something else. We'll see...

Till next time!

LOST UPDATE


So a lot has happened on LOST this season! At first I was going to do a basic rundown on episodes and I realized that was a fool's errand so now I've decided that I would just write letters to the power players of the season!

Here we go!

JACK


Dear Jack:
What the Hell!?!? We were totally with you until you decided to sell the entire camp out so that you could go home! I personally thought it was hilarious that Locke "blew up" your ride! Now that you are back in camp and all hugged up with your new ho Juliet, all you do is walk around and act all creepy and secretive. I thought you were hot! You're not hot! What an a-hole! I hope you read this and redeem yourself or we are totally breaking up!
love
J

KATE



Girl!!!
You have really made a mess of things this time, didn't you girl? First off you NEVER FOLLOW DIRECTIONS!!!! You know Jack told you to run away from the others AND NOT COME BACK! What did you do? Ran right back and screwed things up! You done slept with Sawyer!!!! For the record: I would not be surprised if you are pregnant. Oh Yeah! What about this whole "We don't trust Jack so Kate don't tell him about the weird lady that fell from the sky!" What did you do? Ran off and told Jack about her! I am sooooo disappointed in you girl!

I'll write again (in about 9 months).
good luck!
J

SAWYER


Dear Sawyer:

You are a big ole' MESS!!! You have proven yourself to be the island princess this season!

LYLAS
J

PS I think Kate's pregnant!

SUN AND JIN


To SUN:

You gonna die girl! That's what you get for being secretly devious! You let your man think you were a little angel when in fact you are the cause of most of his problems! You are soooo wrong for that! It's a good thing I like you! If I didn't I would totally call the smoke monster on you!

To Jin:

Just a quick note to let you know:
1 your mom was a ho
2 your wife is a ho
3 your body is slammin' so I hope you make it off the island alive!

J

CHARLIE


Dear Charlie:

Second Hobbit to the left always dies!!! Bye Bye Bitch!!!

forever yours
J

LOCKE



Dear Locke:

You are such an effing TOOL!!! All you do is blow shit up and get other people to do your dirty work! What a lame ass. I'm glad you joined the others! Good riddance you big freak! Oh! By the way I bet you anything the others are laughing at you behind your back! Once a looser, always a looser!

J

BEN LINUS

Ben:

If I had a tumor I'd name it Ben Linus.
If Jack removed it I would deliberately grow another one so I could name it Ben Linus II. Could you please just answer a question without turning it into some weird-ass riddle. I adore you but I hate you!

Have a great summer break!
J

DESMOND

Des:

I thought you were annoying in the beginning but now I realize you were just hot and I didn't see it. Time travel always equals HOT. Saving lives....totally hot!
Des, you are the new poo on this island! Jack should just take a big whiff!!!

JULIET



Dearest Juliet:

You are the best thing that has happened to LOST in a long frakkin' time! You are my favorite character and I hope I get to see you kick some more Kate ass! You are a rare combo of beauty, brains and bad ass! I hope the camp doesn't kill you when they find out you have been spying on them for Ben! Just kill his sorry ass girl! You can do it!

All my best
J


HURLEY



You aren't really a power player this season but you did find a van full of beer! Awesome!

J

Where The Hell Have I Been!?!?


I can't believe I haven't written a post since Anna Nicole passed away! What the Hell!? Well I can assure you that I have not been in great mourning over her. I have not been kidnapped by "the others" and I have not been in an accident that destroyed my short term memory. I've actually been really (really) busy. Once again I accepted a few too many jobs and got a little backed up. In the long run things are good with me and now that I have some time on my hands I am back in the blogging saddle.

You will be glad to know that I have still managed to see my favorite television shows! Yay! The next few posts will be all about me talking about them! That should be fun!

First up:
(Click photos to enlarge)

America's Next Top Model
cycle 8


Well what a strange cycle this has been! For the first time in a while the catch up episode was helpful!

We found out that Rene isn't the evil bitch we thought she was in the beginning. Sometimes Mommies can stick it through to the end (hopefully).


We found out Jael just wanted to "spread light" and "touch the grass and the animals and climb the trees". (I want some of whatever she's on.)

Natasha is turning out to be my favorite going into the final four! She has tried the hardest of any girl in any cycle to give the judges what they want.


"Fat" girls should not try to be models because Tyra hates them and she KILLS THEM and eats them all!!!!


Last (but not least) Britney has soul cancer (HEY ANTPodcast!) and it obviously caused her to get hit by a car when she was in high school which caused her to loose her short term memory which is obviously the reason she can't perform the tasks that are required for her to be America's Next Top Model--and that is SOOOO not her fault. (sniff, sniff). Dear Brit: Top models must have excellent short term memory and their soul cancer can't be malignant. DUH.

It's been a long time since I've been able to say this:

BYE BYE BITCH!!!!

and congratulations to the final four:
Natasha, Rene, Dionne and Jaslene
