Criminal Minds is so good. I always watch it at night (after the kids are down) and last night I forgot to lock the doors before I started it. Creepy!

Also watched last week’s Psych (I can’t ever comment on shows the day they air since I watch at varied times). Dude. The joke about The Mentalist was so awesome. And the Mean Joe Greene-esque scene with Little Shawn was sweet. The rapid-fire banter on that show is what makes it so great. The 3 cops are the weakest part of that show (sorry to bust on Roday’s girlfriend). I think it would play better if they weren’t so cartoony. Just have Shawn and Gus be the silly ones. And give Gus more of a purpose, please! He’s just the tag-along for the most part. When he uses his Super Smeller then he is contributing, but how often does he have to pull that out? His knowledge of pharmacuticals is helpful sometimes, but still. How does he get as much access to police files as Shawn? OK, just took the long way through Tangent Town. Parking.
Ignition off.

Oh I love that there are so many Top Chef aficionados on GMMR!!! I’ve been hooked since last season, and I’m so into it again this year. I was so glad Leah got the boot last week, and I would love to see a Stefan/Fabio battle for top spot. You know they would love that too – it would be so fun to watch. I mostly hope Fabio doesn’t go home tonight because a night without his hi-larious quotes just wouldn’t be the same. They are so going to use one of his phrases on the annual t-shirt this year!

Top Chef is the BEST reality show on television today. Well, besides Project Runway!!!
I’m just watching with my fingers crossed that Hosea will finally go home tonight!!!

Kath! Memememememe! I totally think I could do double duty! And Billy loooooves Top Chef (because the combination of Padma and food about makes his head explode), so I watch it live every week. Heck, if you want, I’ll cover the last couple episodes of this season for you. Just let me know.

I’m loving on Stefan – yes, he is an ass, but he has the talent to back it up so I don’t mind it. Actually, I love it. I don’t understand why so many people despise him – they’re have been way worse participants on the show. Same with Fabio, but Fabio isn’t quite as rude – he’s just got the boasting ego like all the finals boys do. But I’m rooting for the Europeans to take it – they’ve both been pretty consistent, not to mention they both have the entertainment factor that makes you WANT to watch them.

Carla has definitely stepped it up, and I’m glad she’s stayed around as long as she has. I love watching when you get people like her who have the skills but just have to adapt to the show, and get better as it progresses.

HOsea and GonnoLeah just totally grossed me out with their disgusting cheating on their significant others. Fabio is my favorite, but Carla really grew on me. And Stefan is a dick, but he is funny and he does back up his ego, so I can enjoy it. And speaking of people who are kind of a dick, I sort of miss Jeff. I really think he should’ve made it to the final 4 over Ho.

Thanks for the heads up no the errors. This is what happens when I do the Spotlight at 2am the night before.

OMG – agreed! Leah was a looooooooong time coming – I’m just glad they finally knocked her out. I’m ok with Hosea, but the way he fixates on Stefan is frustratingly annoying and it is going to bite him in the ass in these final episodes – can’t wait!

Don’t be sorry, say it loud and say it proud–GonnoLeah is gone, and hopefully HO-sea is next!

And not to nitpick also, but Top Chef is down to the final four, not five. Sorry!!!

I LOVE Top Chef!!! I’m so excited to see how the finale plays out.

OMG, I love Top Chef. Are there any other watchers here?

THANKS! I never noticed that before. That’s not nitpicking at all. Actually you’d be more justified in saying – “Hey asshat, get it right!”

I don’t mean to be a nitpick but it’s been bugging me for a few weeks now. “Life” is on NBC not Fox.

It’s a great show by the way!
