Rita Rocks!!! (Really?!)
So, I went to my dad's house today to go to a live audience taping of the Lifetime series Rita Rocks, which is about a woman who gives up her passion for becoming a musician to become a mom of two working part-time while her husband is a more office job worker. However, she starts playing with some friends in a small little band of four (her on guitar, black lady on keyboard, white kid on drums, and an older white man on... cello...) who practice in her garage. I watched what will be the season finale of the show's first season, which will air on Monday, February 9th at 8:00pm PST on Lifetime. While I didn't know the series, the show was fairly easy to watch without having seen any previous episodes, and it had some pretty funny scenes in it. Not as funny as Two and a Half Men, necessarily, but some funny scenes nonetheless. I won't talk about what happens, as I'm sure any possible fans (and the station) would not like that. But, all-in-all, it was a pretty good day. :)
Lost in... Lost
So, I'm totally addicted to the show Lost. I was lucky to be able to watch it all online for free on high-def streaming from ABC's website. While I really thought it would be interesting with the various occurrences that happened and that it would be more realistic, they seemed to turn it into this try to make it as crazy as possible scheme... but I still like it. Admittedly, I would have liked it much more if they had left all the 'Others' and 'Dharma Initiative' and their stations, but had left out all of these odd fantastic occurrences like the black smoke thing, the random hallucinations, magical cures, and moving through space and time... I think it would have been much more interesting if they had kept it mysterious, yet believable... but nonetheless, I'm still hooked. I just got done watching the fourth episode, and all I can respond to the ending is: "WTF?!"
I can't wait until next Wednesday!

Kyle XY
Okay, so I'm a totaly dork... I absolutely LOVE this show! I'm currently re-watching the first season with my boyfriend, but their third season is on now, AWESOME!!! It is an ABC Family production, so there is a lot of the 'life's lesson' morals throughout, but it is so good! Kyle is not only freaking cute as all hell, he's totally got the innocence part down... and makes me want to melt when he smiles. I've so far gotten about 10 other people into the series, as it really is interesting! There's a lot of interesting scientific theories that go into it, mixed with drama, innocence, learning, and many interesting happenings... :)

Ally McBeal
Okay, so I always watched this show when I was younger with my mom, but I didn't really remember much about it, except I liked it and it was funny as all hell. So, I started watching it, from season 1 episode 1, and am almost complete. :) I didn't realize how BIG the show was! I mean, there's huge artists, such as Josh Groban, Mariah Carey, Sting, Barry Manilow, Barry White, Elton John, and Tine Turner! And big stars, like Lucy Liu, Robert Downey Jr., Porche de Rossi, James Marsden, etc.
So, once again, I am in love with Ally McBeal! (^_^) No reason for saying this, except to let people know. :)

Horribly fascinating...
Okay, so I have read the entire The Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind, which I have already highly recommended... Then they made the TV show off of it, called The Legend of the Seeker. Wow... it is... um... different. They completely botched the plot up to holy hell, making me pound my feet in anger at the stupidity of how they ruined the whole first book with some of their messed up plots. The main character, Richard, looks very young and... I want to say innocent, but it's not... it's just stupid. He is STUPID!!! Richard is supposed to be smart, cunning, and able to quickly find the answers to questions, but this one doesn't go through that process. After the problem is solved, it seems an epiphany just comes to him and he learns a lesson or something. It makes me think of the old Hercules series where they just go around saving random people time after time. Of course, I'm stupid as well, as I just can't stop watching it, hahaha... It's interesting to see how far they can deviate from the plot and how much they just leave out or skip. So far they have managed to skip an entire tribe of main characters, so we'll see how it works. :)
For those who have not read the series, it might be interesting to watch, but once they read the book, they will either laugh or cry at the way it was butchered into this television show...
