Quickies - DH, House, Castle, and P&R

Desperate Housewives


We loved vengeful Katherine, especially when she wore Susan’s wedding dress while stirring a messy pot of tomato sauce. We know that she’s seriously hurt, and we feel bad for her, but I for one kinda hope she never gets over it. I can take this Katherine all season long. Not sure how we feel about the new neighbors yet. It’s weird to have them assimilated so quickly, what with the quick time passage and all. They’re clearly on the run from something. The mob? The police? Something to do with their creepy kind? And her big ass back scar? Interesting. We’ll see how you go new guys. As far as Julie goes, the easy suspects are Katherine (I don’t believe for a second that she would actually do that) and the creepy new kid or his sketchy Dad. I’m sure fingers will be pointing by next week. Also, we love Lynette and this story lien. We hope you end up loving your babies by the time they pop out and that you don’t do anything drastic.

Two quotes from the night that amused me:

''I got really lucky. The woman who handled the properties in the area, she slammed her car into a pole and got fried by a power line.'' – Lee, explaining how he had gotten such a great house for his first listing.

''We will never be done if we birth two every time one moves out — that's just math!'' - Lynette



House




All House and Wilson all the time please. Their scenes were pretty much the only good thing about this episode. The case wasn’t that interesting, and Foreman suck ass as a boss. Oh, and for the love of gob shave that pube beard, Foreman! We can’t take it anymore. Also intolerable are him and Thirteen (Foreteen – gag me with a spoon). Our hate for them as a couple burns so bright that it has completely erased any memory why (or if) we ever liked them as individuals. Being in charge put a serious strain on their relationship, which led him to fire her (ummmmm, I’m pretty sure that’s sexual harassment). Oh, and Taub quit, which I keep forgetting. Next week House is back at work, and we get James Earl Jones as a patient – so things should be looking up!


Castle

This show just keeps getting better and better. We loved the inter office bet on who could solve their murder first, and thought it was great to have Becket be just as competitive as Castle instead of standing to the side judging him like we would have thought. While the show is improving with each episode, poor Becket’s hair is not so lucky. She’s got some unfortunate stuff happening. Hope they fix that soon.

Parks and Recreations

Keeps being funny! You go, guys! I especially loved the C-plot line of Ron Swanson stuck in his chair all day from a hernia. Over all it wasn’t quite as funny as last week, but it keeps hopes high for the rest of the season.
