BONES: ‘The Doctor in the Photo’

December 9, 2010 by  
Filed under #1 featured, Bones

Hello friends, I’m glad you’re here. We have a lot to talk about. Though there was a case in this episode, BONES strayed slightly from its formula, and I’m going to do the same here. I’ve only once ever not used the “Case > Squints > Booth & Brennan” format; that was with “Con Man in the Meth Lab” in season four. After that episode, we just talked, and that’s what I want to do here again.

Here at Give Me My Remote, we write because we love TV and the shows we talk about. I don’t get paid to write about BONES week after week, and I wasn’t assigned the show as some beat reporter on a staff. I write because I love. Simple as that. I love BONES. And I want to prove it to you…I want to prove why, even when my heart is breaking, I still love it.

NIKITA Preview: ‘All The Way’

Comments Off on NIKITA Preview: ‘All The Way’

NIKITA takes things to a whole new level in tonight’s fresh episode of the fem action series.

Alex is tasked with pulling off her first kill and failure is not an option — it’s either kill or be killed.

There will be some huge story progress as secrets are revealed, some major butt-kicking goes down, and the players are reminded that every action has its consequences.

Take a look at the preview and a scene from tonight’s excellent hour, which for me, is the best episode of the series to date…

BONES Preview: Emily Deschanel Talks ‘The Doctor in the Photo’

December 9, 2010 by  
Filed under #1 featured, Bones

BONES fans, tonight’s brand new episode, “The Doctor in the Photo,” is a biggie.

Give Me My Remote has already teased the hour, but be honest — you’d rather hear what’s going down straight from Emily Deschanel (Brennan), no? (We don’t blame you.)

Deschanel called the episode “different,” “strange” and “one of her favorite scripts,” but what did she say about what’s actually happening?

MODERN FAMILY: Dance Dance Revelation

December 9, 2010 by  
Filed under Modern Family

Well, MODERN FAMILY fans, what did we think of this week’s episode? There was a lot going on so let’s get to it!

It’s Manny and Luke’s first dance and of course Claire is there to micro-manage everything. Gloria is the co-chair and Claire won’t let her do anything. When Gloria decides they need to move the arrangement of the tables, Claire loses it. In retaliation, she makes Gloria climb under the stage in the gym to get more chairs. At the dance, they have a fight that ends with Claire crying in the bathroom with a drink spilled on her. Gloria goes to comfort her and tells her that the reason she volunteers is because she wants the other moms to see there is more to her than being hot and having big boobies. Things are resolved between them when Claire says she shouldn’t have made it into a competition and reveals she has stuffed her bra.

TOP CHEF: ALL STARS Make Kiddie Food for Joe Jonas. Wait, What?

December 9, 2010 by  
Filed under #1 featured, Top Chef

Now that the first elimination is out of the way, the remaining cheftestants are simultaneously relieved and on-edge. They survived one challenge, and are just glad to not be in last place. But if it wasn’t apparent that this competition is tough, it sure is now that someone has actually been sent packing.

The quickfire challenge has teen heartthrob Joe Jonas serving as judge. Youthful Spike knows who Joe Jonas is. Antonia has a young daughter, so she knows who Joe Jonas is. Dale T. does not know who Joe Jonas is, and thinks he might be a pastry chef. Hah.

The challenge is to create a midnight snack for a children’s sleepover at the American Museum of Natural History. Chefs always hate cooking for kids because of their unsophisticated palettes. But if I didn’t know any better, I could’ve thought they were asked to cook for aliens the way they were complaining and scrambling for ideas.

FRINGE: Preview ‘Marionette,’ Plus a Schedule Update

Comments Off on FRINGE: Preview ‘Marionette,’ Plus a Schedule Update

Good news and bad news for FRINGE fans: Thursday brings a brand spankin’ episode of one of the best shows on television…but it’s also the last fresh hour we’ll get this year.

However, the series’ winter hiatus won’t be as long as fans initially thought.

Fox originally announced that FRINGE would be moving to Friday nights starting January 28th, a seven-week break between new episodes. But now comes word that the show will return a week earlier (January 21st) for six weeks of uninterrupted awesomeness. The fun begins with “Firefly,” featuring guest star Christopher Lloyd. (Yes,  you read that right — “Firefly” — Just like the beloved Joss Whedon series of the same name which died on Friday nights. Someone, somewhere has a wicked sense of humor.)
