Modern Family – Pilot (S01E01)
ABC
If you didn’t see Modern Family last night and you’re reading this review of the episode, stop. Go watch it, then come back. This show is officially my favourite new comedy of the year. And, it’s all because of one scene. Seriously, if you didn’t see it, go watch it now. The rest of you, follow me.
Hodgins knew it was Zack (Bones)
In the aftermath of Dr. Zack Addy’s confession and ultimate depature from Bones, something a lot of people overlooked a particularly great scene.
When I first watched this episode, I took nothing from the fact that Hodgins gave Zack morphine. I thought it was placed there to throw the fans off the trail.
But it turns out that Hodgins was being Hodgins. I’ll explain after the click.
Is this proof that Stella is the Mother? (How I Met Your Mother)
In the season finale of How I Met Your Mother, there’s a sequence where Ted goes through the whole life-flashes-before-your-eyes idea. In reality, it was 70 frames of pictures from the first 3 seasons.
And tucked in between all those pictures was one interesting image that stuck out…
(and no it’s not the one of Stella..check it out after the click)
Bones: The Pain in the Heart (S03E15 – Season Finale)
FOX
This show really isn’t afraid of doing what it wants.
Sometimes, shows become complacent and formulaic the point where it becomes a detriment. And, whether it works or not, you have to give credit to those shows that try and change things up once in a while.
Hart Hanson and the Bones crew definitely shook it up to finish up the shortened third season of Bones.
Reaper: Cancun (S01E18 – Season Finale)
The CW
I love Cancun.
If yawgurt becomes the first TV review site to actually pay its writers well, I’ll make it a point to spend a week there, doing my work “on location” (Maybe I should have put the quotes around doing work).
I also love fireworks.
I live in a country that still celebrates the birth of the (former) Queen of another country. I would complain, except that we get an extra day of fireworks. Now I’m pushing Canada to celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Lilies, like the people of Malta do in June.
Though, I’m not sure that any of that would beat the crazy display at The Workbench in tonight’s episode. Read more
