As another Tuesday rolls around, I couldn't wait for the next episode of LOST. This one full of greatness all around. We see a confrontation between enemies, an excellent flash-sideways plot full of Keamy and Patchy. Sun loses her power to speak English, which I welcomed due to the fact that over the past season and a half, she has pretty much been a broken record. "Where is my husband?" and "I need to find my husband!" has been pretty much her every other line of dialogue. Daniel Day Kim gives a great performance when he first sees his daughter (even though its through a digital camera), and the cliffhanger was perfect, albeit predictable. Frank gets his awesome one line of the episode, and we see another scary Locke face. Things are unraveling, and I cannot wait until next week!

As the countdown continues to the end of LOST, the ball keeps rolling in yet another roller coaster episode. I never really liked the Ben-centric episodes as much as everyone else did, but I had a feeling I would love this one after we see Ben complain about coffee filters in "The Substitute", and I was right. We see Ben in the flash-sideways as a rather ordinary history teacher who still believes in his job, not quite different from Ben as when he was the leader of the island. Emerson gives a great performance in both the sideways and island story, especially in his rambling confession to Illana, but my personal favorite scene was in the b-story with Hurley, Jack, and Richard. When Jack just sits there with Richard in the Black Rock while the dynamite is about to blow, Jack makes the same face from the beginning of "Through The Looking Glass Part 1" where he is standing on top of the bridge about to fall. In both scenes he closes his eyes, and it just reinforces my conclusions...Jack is one crazy dude..who's Awesome!!! Cant wait till next Tuesday, where we will hopefully see more Jack faces!

The Good, The Bad, and Parenthood

I was very impressed with the Pilot of this show. I am glad Lauren Graham has the chance to do such emotional acting. I was kind of worried about her in this role, because i thought she was just going to act like Lorelei from Gilmore Girls. The bottom line is, she is great. Peter Krause is good just like he is good in everything he is in. Craig T. Nelson is just as good. Dax Shepard is pretty good along with the rest of the cast. The plots they come up with are mildly engrossing, but I am watching it because I like the characters. The story revolves around this single mother (Graham) who has to move back into her parents house along with her two kids. If you like to watch family dramas, than Parenthood is a must see!

Like the Hiccups, this show is annoying and sometimes painful. There is something seriously wrong with Brent Butt. Could they just not afford a real actor? This guy is the show runner, writer, creator, and a character. He plays a broke life coach with an attractive wife. I understand that in a comedy you don't have to act completely realistic, but Brent Butt just sounds like he is one small step away from reading lines strait off the script. Speaking of the script, its your basic pilot script introducing the characters and their quirky, yet unfunny personalities and outlaying the concept of what the show is. I did like Laura Soltis in this show, but Nancy Robertson was too over the top even for a zany, wacky children's book writer. The bottom line is that the show is just another generic comedy that got no laughs from me. Keep in mind that this is a Canadian show and I am American, so maybe Canadians find this piece of garbage funny, but I recommend that you pass on this if you value your time.
Like Jack Shepard? Love this Episode!

First I was blown away by the premiere, then the substitute wowed me, but The Lighthouse is just one big meaty sandwich full of crazy and emotional Matthew Fox scenes. Varying from when Jack was running around looking for David(throwback to classic controlling jack),to when he revisited the caves and confessed to Hurley the truth about what happened 3 years ago during the episode "White Rabbit", and finally to when he was screaming at Hurley demanding to know why Jacob was watching him. I definitely don't think anything can match up to the best Jack scene ever(One of Them S.2), but this episode developed his character even further, transforming him from the failure he thinks he is, back to a leader. I may be a little biased because Jack is my favorite character, but I hadn't seen a decent Jack face since season 4. Bottom line, if your a fan of Jack or Matthew Fox, this episode will not disappoint. This episode Is definitely one of my favorite Jack-centric episodes, and much better then the season 4 and 5 Jack episodes (even though I liked those too).
