Brief review. I read Rob Sheffield's "Love Is A Mixtape" and I was a little bit disappointed. It was recommended to me so I guess I thought it would be amazing, but it really wasn't. It was good, had it's sad and happy moments but it was not great. If you want to read it, I'd say borrow it. Could use those $13 for something else. Lord knows we have to be stingy these days. Solid B.
I am actually getting into Gossip Girl. I saw the re-run of the pilot episode and I actually like it, a lot. It's very catty. Very political (in the normal meaning of the word; non gov. kind of way). I'm very much intigued. I think I'll catch up by watching it online, if the episodes are available.
I know, I'm lame. It's my first post in forever. Sorry. I'll try to blog more frequently. :)
So I know it's been a while now but the strike is over, which means all my favorite shows will be back. I'm so glad. I was so sick and tired of watching repeats. I even resorted to watching some reality shows, something I RARELY do. Anyhow, so it looks like Journeyman won't be coming back but I wish it did because that show was really a great show. .. oh you know what else sucks, I started watching Friday Night Lights because Matt Czuchry guest starred in it for four episodes and I actually found it to be pretty good. I liked the actors their characters and stories. The thing is I started watching it because of Matt Czuchry and because for a while it was the only show with new episodes, and now that I fell in love with (well, let's be honest here, I like it) it turns out it has not been picked up yet for another season. It's pretty much canceled. How lame is that? So Journeyman and and FLN have been canceled now I have absolutely no reason to watch NBC. Journeyman was my regular show and FLN would have been the replacement or at the very least hey-Im-bored-let's-flip-to-NBC-and-see-what's-going-on show. So I guess ABC's the network for me. I still have Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty, Pushing Daisies, Dirty.Sexy.Money; some of which won't return until next fall.
So Journeyman will in fact not be returning for another 9 episodes :( This Monday was the first Monday without Journeyman and what a very sad Monday it was. However, I must say that Kevin Falls and his crew did a PHENOMENAL job at wrapping it up considering there was still that possibility that it would continue if the ratings improved. He delivered on his promise, it gave you answers that were satisfying but it did still leave some questions unanswered just in case it did continue. The last scene with Dan about to jump back into the past and alerting Katie so she could see him leave was great. McKidd acted beautifully in that scene. His face, as he told her, and his voice, carried so much emotion. I got the feeling that everything would be ok and that, as he promised in the first episode, he would always come home. I also thought the way they wrapped the image into Katie's eye was great- like they did on the first episode, only with Dan. It was like tying a bow on a present :) (If that made any sense at all). I really loved this show and I do hope there is some kind of miracle and we see it come back next season, or get extra episodes on the DVD ;) WHICH by the way I'm buying as soon as it comes out.

Now this isn't fair. Journeyman has gotten REALLY good since my last post. A+ rating now, but NBC has not picked it up for another season. So it looks like we will only have 13 episodes :( . Hopefully, if it does really strong in the last 2 episodes, NBC picks it up. I really love this show! The writing and story is really good on this show. The acting is superb. It's such a shame to end this show after just one season because of low ratings. It has a devoted fan base, small one, but very much devoted. Journeyman really is a fantastic show. If you're a fan then you know what I'm talking about. If you're not then watch an episode give it a shot. (Watch FULL EPISODES ) You'll love it!

WOW! This film deserves an A++. This movie is fantastic. Very entertaining. The whole world should watch this movie, it is a masterpiece. This movie is really well done. Ok I should stop now, but it's really good. This movie is basically a musical (and a love story). They used Beatles songs to tell the story and did a wonderful job. The film tells a story about a guy named Jude who travels to the U.S during the 1960's and finds himself in the middle of the Anti-War movement. This film really brings you back into that time period and you can really feel the sentiment that was felt at the time (but I wouldn't really know). It's REALLY GOOD. The music fits perfectly. Go see it!!
The boys in this movie are very cute by the way ;)
All new episode of Journeyman tonight. Eeek! I'm super excited. Just had to say it :)
Ok but what I wanted to talk about is the screen writers strike that's going on in Hollywood. Though I support them- they deserve a paycheck increase(hey, they create the stuff), I really hope this issue is resolved soon, because if not I will my miss my shows DEARLY. The news were saying that prime time is set up until January but after January? What then? What's going to happen to my JOURNEYMAN, PUSHING DAISIES, GREY'S ANATOMY, Ugly Betty, Dirty.Sexy.Money, & Big Shots?? I worry very much. ;) and not just that but what about the people that will lose their job as a result of this strike? The non writers? Sad, sad situation.
