January 11, 2010 | "Whoa whoa I gotta go...back to schoooool...again", 2nd Semester, Boob Tube, LAS, Life in General, Modern Fiction, Nonprofit Explorations, Prescott College, Rio Salado, School Daze, Spring 2010, The 4-1-1 on Me

I start school today. I’ll be taking three classes this semester: Nonprofit Explorations (mentored), LAS (Liberal Arts Seminar): Community and Social Change and Modern Fiction. This semester, I’ll be going to two schools: Rio Salado and Prescott College–online, that is. So from now on, when I complain talk about these courses in their acronmyous (hah. I just made that word up) forms–NP, LAS, MF–you’ll know what I’m complaining talking about.

The first two classes don’t start until the 15th, but it still applies. I officially start school this week.

Blogging may be on a minimum.

As is visiting/commenting on the other blogs I try to read on the regular. Although, I may have to sneak over to Crystal’s blog because I have a feeling she’s going back to her weekly TV show updates. We’re both big fans of CHUCK and he’s back in a kick-ass way. Woot!

So, is anyone else back in school?

So, The Hubs and I finally got caught up on WEEDS. All 4 seasons. LOVE. THIS. SHOW. We just watched the season finale last night. O.M.G. Our mouths dropped open and we looked at each other like, W.T.F?

He’s all, “I did not see that coming.”

Shane needs counseling.

Seriously.

That kid should’ve been put in counseling the minute he found out his mother was a drug dealer.

And Silas needs a chastity belt or something. He is such a horn dog. But that’s teenage boys for you, I guess. It was amazing to watch these boys grow up on this show. Playing these characters can’t be easy. I mean, have you seen this show? Have you seen the stuff they’ve had to do? Utter craziness. They’re just amazing.

And Alanis Morrisette!!! Wha-wha…? I had no idea she was an actress now. Is she still making records? Jagged Little Pill was one of my favorite albums back in the day. I used to sing “You Oughtta Know” like I had something to be angry about. LOL.

To say that this family is dysfunctional is a major freakin’ understatement. I’m so glad they did away with the theme song by season 4. It was annoying as hell, no matter how many different artists sang it. Besides, the creative ways they manage to show “Weeds”, “created by Jenji Kohan” and the weed “logo” at the beginning is way better.

Can’t wait to see what the next season brings. So, are you a WEEDS fan, too? Who’s your favorite character?

Justin Hartley has pretty feet.

Seriously.

That’s about as random as I can get, but it’s true. For those of you that don’t know, this Hottie on a Stick plays Oliver Green/The Green Arrow on SMALLVILLE. I’ve been catching up on my eppies and was able to watch one and half eppies yesterday. Anyhow, in one of the November eppies (don’t ask me the name), there’s a scene where they focus on his feet. He’s walking into a hole-in-the-wall bar in what looks like Mexico and he’s wearing flip-flops.

I was thinking “Wow, that person has really pretty feet.” And then the camera pans up the long, tall, drink of water that is Justin dressed in raggedy jeans and a T-shirt and I was all “Shut. Up. They’re his feet?” It made me wanna rewind just to see them again.

Seriously.

This dude has beautifully shaped feet. I can’t even really describe them, they’re that pretty. I didn’t get to finish watching the other eppie, but from what I saw, he gets drugged and is running around barefoot in a dirty white suit.

Maybe they focus on his feet again. I’ll have to see.

Dear Network Execs,

WHOSE BRIGHT IDEA WAS IT TO CLUTTER THURSDAY NIGHTS WITH GREAT SHOWS?!!!!! Five of our shows are on Thursday nights now. This is ridiculous! It’s bad enough you bumped SMALLVILLE to Kiss-of-Death-For-Shows Friday, but now you’re cramming fabulous programming on one night? Unacceptable.

Our DVR is about to explode.

There are 3 other frickin’ days of the week here, people! What’s wrong with Tuesday? We were lurking on the FRINGE with THE MENTALIST on this day and we were cool with that. And Mr. Maul and I were perfectly happy analyzing bones with, well, BONES on Wednesday nights.

So, what, Monday’s the nappy-haired stepchild now? HEROES may still be trying to save the friggin’ cheerleader on this day, but they still need help from CHUCK, so when you bring back the show, we’d strongly suggest or else greatly appreciate it if you’d keep his goofy butt there.

I think Thursday is getting too much love this season. I feel you’re shortchanging the other days (except Friday and Sunday) and should fire the complete idiot nimrod stupid twit newbie who suggested Thursday be the most popular night for television. I’m just sayin’.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
Celise

Whooo-hooo! ENTOURAGE is back! It’s so good to see Vincent Chase and the gang again. Our Sunday nights are lookin’ kinda crowded.

I know I’ve listed all the shows we watch, but the list has grown, so let me break it down for you again.

SHOWS MR. MAUL AND I WATCH

Sundays
TRUEBLOOD
DEXTER
HUNG – we wish this show was an hr instead of a half hr
ENTOURAGE

Mondays
CHUCK
NURSE JACKIE – this woman is a trip

Tuesdays
THE MENTALIST
FRINGE

Wednesdays

Thursdays
SUPERNATURAL

Fridays
DOLLHOUSE – if it’s coming back

SHOWS I WATCH BY MYSELF

Sundays
DROP DEAD DIVA- I watched the season premiere of this new series Sunday night on the LMN network (not sure what it stands for). Did anyone else watch it? The soul of a size 2 blond-haired model ends up in the body of a size 16, brunette lawyer after they both die on the same day. Comedian Margaret Cho is in it and I really liked it. Good thing the hubby records TRUEBLOOD because they come on at the same time. I thought it was a 2-hr movie and then realized it’s a new series, so this will be another show I’ll be watching on Sundays.

Mondays
HEROES

Tuesdays
SAVING GRACE – I just got into this show. Not sure what season I’m watching right now, but I really like it. Including the theme song by Everlast.

Wednesdays

LEVERAGE – Christian Kane can manhandle me anytime
DARK BLUE - the series premiere comes on this Wednesday. This show reminds me of the one above, so I may take to it.

Thursdays

SMALLVILLE
THE LISTENER - seriously, how hawt-hawt-hawt is Craig Olejnik ? Is anyone else watching this show? The dude’s eyes are so unnaturally gorgeous, it’s eerie.

As you can see, we watch a lot of shows. Thank God for DVR.

So, what are you watching?
