SNL - Jeremy Renner & Maroon 5

Oh nooo they're opening with a sketch about the biographer who wrote a book on, and then slept with, the director of the CIA... I'm pretty sure this is gonna be full of innuendos! Or descriptions of makeout sessions lol ... And the audience she's reading it to looks utterly shocked and disturbed haha and then a bunch of them leave, except for Fred of course, he's enjoying it too much -.-
Jeremy Renner, I know almost nothing about this guy other than the fact that he played Hawkeye in the Avengers (half of which I slept through..) but apparently he can sing! He made up a theme song for the Avengers which he tries to play - and the piano doesn't work XD That's definitely the funniest messup I've EVER seen on SNL!! And a ripoff of 'Use Somebody' by Kings of Leon, called 'shoot somebody'... And then a song that sounds an AWFUL LOT like the Europe song 'Final Countdown' - and then he yells 'it's Mission Impossible!' but that song was for The Town HAHAHA
Then a faux-mercial for people who go and visit their old hometowns hahah 'you could go on a day trip - to the new Kmart' and their parents are overly clingy, of course
OMG The Californians!! This sketch hahaha... They did it pretty recently tho, I'm surprised they're doing it again! Bill-as-the-blonde-construction-worker tries to teach Vanessa-as-the-Spanish-maid to speak English and he has 'one more word to teach her... Love' and they make out! OMG FRED AND JEREMY STARTED LAUGHING HAHAHA this episode is full of hilarious screw-ups!! Also, Fred's character knocked someone up at an Eagles concert lol

The Situation room!! I have no clue who the real Wolf Blitzer is, but I love Jason Sudekis' impersonation of him lol he sounds to stiff! And so they're talking about this girl named Jill Kelly who reported the affair they talked about in the first sketch... They only have 1 clip of her, of her walking down the stairs down the street and getting into a car. And then they have a seperate photo of her, and Bobby as a reporter standing across the street from her house 'so far she hasn't replied to any of the questions I shouted at her house' LMAO and then there's a 'CNN dramatization' of the same clip, only it's Tim in a dress walking down the stairs in a dress lol

Apparently this is Wolf Blitzer. I like Jason better!

This next sketch was so weird but had me laughing so hard - it starts off with Bobby, Taran and Jeremy standing in a parking garage, each pointing a gun at each of the other 2 and then Jeremy says 'I gotta go pick up my kid from dance class' and they go there, go home, sleep, and do a bunch of other stuff (including Thanksgiving dinner haha and SKATING!) while pointing the guns at each other! Then they're walking down the street and a guy comes up to them and says 'hey where's-' and they point the guns at him and he has his own guns aimed at them and IT'S ADAM LEVINE!!! Then they give him directions and he leaves and they all go 'that was Adam Levine!' Damn I love him lol.. Then they're all back in the parking garage and Bobby says 'this was the best 2 days of my life' and THEY BOTH SHOOT HIM!! Damnit I hate when they do that... Then Taran says he has to let his cats out lol and they walk off slowly, still pointing guns at each other!
MAROON 5!!! I told you all I was super-happy about them being on today, I especially love it when Adam makes guest appearances in the various sketches lol. But THIS SONG is just incredible, I love their whole album - my aunt gave it to me for my birthday and I haven't been able to stop listening to it!!! It's a perfect mix of incredible ballads and super-catchy songs that make me want to dance..

Buy it. The album cover is weird, but it's incredible.

WEEKEND UPDATE WOOT!!! Lots of jokes about the Petraus scandal, 'Loser of this scandal: people trying to get away with an affair in the digital age. The director of the CIA could not get away with it. You have no hope.' LMAO
Katt Williams is a pimp - I have no clue who he is haha but he's pleading 'pimp' and looks like Snoop Dogg with a flipped-up hairdo...
Also how is it even possible to have a lying competition???? So weird. And WOAH that's the real Chris Christie! And hey, he's being mean to my boy Seth!! I know Seth wrote it himself, but you can't talk to him that way!!

Why would you want to be mean to him?? He's so damn cute!!

I KNEW they were going to parody the Avengers haha (glad they also pointed out that they have stupid words for the simple phrase 'aliens are attacking New York') - and I was wondering why Hawkeye is considered a superhero when all he does is have a bow & arrow lol - also the Black Widow, she's just someone with a gun... LMAO he's out of arrows.  He can't just pull one out of an alien he's already killed, cos that's not sanitary hahaha and Hulk found an arrow, but then Hawkeye fist-bumps him and breaks his bow-pulling hand!!

What good does a gun do against robot-aliens????!!!!!!

There's a sketch about a knockoff Vin Deisel guy named Dick Fuel lol played by Jason who is in a movie playing 'Thug Number 2' in a movie with Jeremy and he keeps overriding Bill the director.. And he always wants juice, and pudding haha then he keeps stopping Jeremy from slapping him like he's supposed to do.. Then he punches Jeremy lol.. How does Jason always play really annoying characters and yet I still love him haha
Maroon 5 is back!! Singing their next single, 'Daylight', which I just ADORE, it's so melodic and beautiful.. And between that one and 'One More Night', I think that's pretty much a perfect representation of their album! Except he sounds kinda tired singing live right now O.o He's not like that on the album, I swear!!
I have no clue what's happening in this next sketch, it's animated and I don't at all recognize the voices lol. It's all about how cool fighter drones are lol and apparently they're also a boy band haha I am so confused... Wait there's Bill's voice I am slightly more relieved. Then they sing while they're on a mission to kill terrorists lol that was just strange. And then they kill a goat!! Why does SNL does this so often?? Who do they think they are, MAD TV?!
OK a sketch in a morgue where a guy Jeremy is with a cop and has to identify a body of his brother, they pull the sheet of his face and he goes 'that's Steven Tyler' and they're all like 'wha-?' then they pull the blanket back and he goes 'it's Yao Ming!' HAHAHAHAHA then he thinks it's the cop, Jason, and Bill the coroner is getting impatient and starts drumming on the body - Jeremy says 'hey bro' and the body sits up, turns out he's not dead after all LMAO then Bill goes 'he said he was dead!' and Jason looks at him like 'SERIOUSLY?!' OH MY GOD That was so good hahaha what a way to end the show!!
Wow apparently today is Lorne Michaels' birthday! And Nasim's! And last week sometime it was Vanessa Bayer's! Lots of SNL babies in November haha

Glee - 'Glease'

As much as the title makes me cringe, I go love Grease so I'm really excited for this episode!!
Sue is pissed about Finn taking over Glee club (not shocking) and so is Tina (shocking!) so Sue drags Will and Finn into the principal's office and she leaves and throws things around and Figgins yells 'YOU ARE A MENACE TO THE STATE OF OHIO!!!' And yet he continues to employ the bee-otch.
Rachel is back (I enjoyed not seeing her last week...) and she's got an audition and Brodie is practising with her and everything and then miss teacher-whose-name-I-forget is trying to steal him away from her!
Kitty is being a bitch (what else is new) and she's altering Marley's dress for the play (who knew that little princess could sew, eh?) so it doesn't fit and she gets to make cracks about her being fat. I don't get why no one notices that her regular clothes fit just fine! And then she invites all of them to a sleepover at her house and I just KNOW she's gonna pull one of those mean-girl pranks on all of them! God, why would they do that! I want to yell at them like the kids in a horror film!
Sue steals the auditorium for Cheerios practise and so they guys have to practise in Finn's car shop.

Look familiar? I think it's supposed to...

Then at the sleepover, Kitty tells Marley that if she wants to be skinny she should force herself to throw up!! Oh no she didn't!! And then, straight outta Grease (Sugar even has her hair tied up like Frenchy) Kitty puts on a brown wig and makes fun of Marley to 'Look at me, I'm Sandra Dee' and when Marley comes out of the washroom (after possibly throwing up) she asks if they were making fun of her and Kitty says 'Some people are SO touchy'..
OH and Rachel and Kurt have decided to go to Ohio to see the show!
Figgins called Unique's parents to congratulate them on her getting a role in the play, and they didn't even know about anything (puh-lease there's no way he leaves the house dressed in guy's clothing and changes in the bathroom every morning!) and the dad was played by Big Mike from Chuck!! So they get Santana to play Rizzo, and the show will go on, but Unique looks so sad :(
Kurt and Rachel show up to see the play (no one cares about anyone missing school/work and such? Mercedes and Mike and all of them are just there whenever?!) and there are a few awkward moments when they see Finn and Blaine and look all deer-in-the-headlights, but then they sit down and watch (apparently in this version, they start with 'Beauty School Dropout' lol) and they're all sad.
Then Marley's throwing up in the bathroom and Ryder walks in on her and makes her stop and says his cousin was a wrestler who needed to lose weight and he used to throw up and diet then used laxatives and then - 'he died?' (what I was thinking too) - 'no, he crapped his pants in the middle of a match'


No, poop jokes aren't funny. But the unexpectedness
of that certainly was.

Then Marley says she'd never use laxatives because they're gross, and he says 'Well I don't want to kiss a girl with puke on her breath. Onstage, or after.' AWWWW!!!!
Santana and Britney and Mike and Tina have conversations about possibly getting back together and then Santana goes and sings 'There are Worse Things I Could Do' with Wade also singing (really, the people in the audience around him can't hear him??) and Cassie dancing with a randomly-shirtless Brodie is also singing.. And it's pretty good!
When Marley's in her catsuit and she and Ryder are preparing to go onstage Kitty comes up and goes 'you'll be fine, but there's a critic in the audience who hates EVERYTHING. So good luck trying to impress him!' And then Marley looks really freaked, so Ryder kisses her (AWW!!) and Jake sees (he hasn't had any lines this episode, but he's had a lot of intense stares) and he looks all sad and jealous.
They go onstage, they do a great job, like I knew they would, and then Mike and Tina are dancing together, so are Santana and Britney (some strategic choreography there, I see!) and it pans over to Rachel in the audience, and suddenly it's her and Finn up on the stage instead of Marley and Ryder (of course she has to make everything about her, good greif -.-) and she flashes back to the first time she and Finn sang 'You're The One That I Want' and she freaked him out... Kurt also pictures himself onstage and then Rachel runs out all dramatic-like and calls Brodie and... CASSIE ANSWERS!!! They slept toegether!! And she tells Rachel off and tells her to 'remember her place' and Rachel takes my advice I was giving Marley last week - AND HANGS UP!!! Thank goodness SOMEONE has some common sense lol
Finn sees her crying, knows they're 'boy tears' because she has 4 types of tears, and they get in an argument because he feels hurt that she's crying over a boy but not over the fact that they broke up. 

My God, he's right!

Blaine tries to apologize to Kurt for cheating on him, and Kurt doesn't care :/ That is just so uncomfortable...
Then they read the review from the harsh critic and he LOVED their show (also we find out that he's only a sophmore haha) so Kitty was psyching Marley out for nothing!
There are tears and such when Mr. Schue says his goodbye 'for a few months' to everyone and I am left with a pretty good sense of closure for such an episode. I mean sure, Rachel's sad, but I don't think I care haha.. The other couples are ambiguous about getting back together, and Marley and Ryder finally kissed! For real!!

Big Bang Theory - 'the 43 Peculiarity'

Sheldon disappears every day at the same time, 2:45-3:05, and never has anything on his calendar at this time. The guys are, naturally, very suspicious of this lol
Penny met a guy at school (a British guy, no less!) and Leonard is jealous haha shocking!
AWW Raj and Howard are going to pet a glow-in-the-dark bunny haha and Sheldon refuses to tell them where he's going. Then YAY! Alex is back lol and she doesn't know where Sheldon's going either.

'I'm just sayin.'

And apparently Sheldon 'couldn't possibly be doing 20-minute abs, because if he was, he'd have way better abs.' LMAO Raj is awesome!
They follow Sheldon to an old storage room and try to listen but can't hear anything.
When Leonard gets all jealous about the British guy, Sheldon does nothing to ease his fear lol 'if we assume your looks are average, 50% of men on earth are better-looking than you' hahah
Raj and Howard break into Sheldon's secret dungeon and all that's in there is a blackboard with the number '43' written on it. Huh.
OH MY GOOD GOD OH MY GOD AAAAAHHHH THE BRITISH GUY SHOWED UP AND OH MY GOD!!!! GUESS WHO IT IS???!!!!! 

Vincent Nigel-Murray's not dead. He's going to
community college in Pasadena.

Even funnier, I had just been thinking 'wouldn't it be really funny if it was Ryan Cartwright playing the British dude (Cole)' because I was reading his page on Twitter the other day hahaha!! I'm so happy I love him!
Then Leonard follows Cole down the stairs and 'warns' him about Penny's boyfriend lol cos 'he may be a scientist, but he's CRAZY' hahaha then Leonard turns around to go upstairs and Pennys there at the top glaring at him!
The guys can't figure out what the 43 means lol and then Leonard talks to Alex about Cole and she says he shouldn't be jealous, she bets girls hit on him all the time and he's super-oblivious because she is CLEARLY hitting on him right then!
Leonard and Penny are talking about Cole and she says 'look, you shouldn't be jealous, you're the one I'm with and I love you' and more stuff, but I STOPPED LISTENING BECAUSE SHE FINALLY SAID SHE LOVED HIM!!! And he realised it a second after I did and a minute before she did and then they both tear up but she has to go to work but AWWWW!!!
Howard and Raj (they need a couple name haha... Howarj?) Anyway, THEY set up a webcam in Sheldon's secret dugeon and they see him set up a machine and say 'wormhole testing number 44 - the first 43 were unsuccessful but perhaps this alternate dimension will contain something!' Then he opens up a blue patch of light and sticks his head in it and something attaches itself to his face!! And then he walks up behind the 2 of them watching the video and throws the same thing on the table hahaha he found the webcam and replaced the feed lmao such a genius prank!! He says he needs to go to the room to get away from the things about human existance that annoy him lol and he won't tell them what he does in the room...
Then at the end of the episode he goes into his room and takes out a hackey sack!! And starts bouncing it and then goes 'darn, I'll never get to 43 again!' HAHA
That was an awesome episode, I loved the mystery of the random number and then seeing RYAN CARTWRIGHT!! Except he was only in one scene, so... Damn :/

NCIS: LA - 'Rude Awakenings'

Sorry for another late posting, but.. Studies called -.-
We open with Hetty commanding a bunch of teams from Ops, who are all 'codeline green' whatever that means, and are going in to neutralize the nuclear bomb threats.
Kensi knocks on the door, Callen and Sam (who for some reason don't need to wear SWAT uniforms) and a bunch of SWAT guys are outside the house and so she leaves her fake package at the door and they all storm in - and find a dead guy seated at a desk. OMG all the other sleeper agents are dead too!! This is some spooky stuff right here!! They were all tortured, probably by cronies of the Russian arms dealer whose name I can't spell..
Oh lovely, Granger's back! They interview the Arcadei, their guy who is 'ex'-KGB, he says Sitirov (?) has a wine collection all over the country so those various wine cellars would be good places to store weapons... And Arkadei (seriously, I hate Russian spelling!) acts incredibly shocked when they imply that they've found a nuclear bomb on US soil.
Then when they leave, Sam and Callen notice they've got a car tailing them, and I get all excited because Callen gets to drive like a crazy person!! The person manages to follow them (although I don't get how, because they turned into an alley before the tail had even gotten on the same street, how did they know... Nevermind) and then OMG this was epic, Callen stopped at the end of the alley because it's a dead-end, and then the guys in the car behind point guns at him and say 'get out' (so he does) and then ask him 'are you armed?' and he says (lies) 'No... But he is' and Sam jumps out of the bushes behind the other car ahahahaha so clever!
The guy in the other car is Snider, a CIA agent Sam had worked with on the same task force as Turner (the dead guy from the last episode) and Sam and he are all fake-friendly but never liked each other. Also, I just typed 'work' and it came out 'fork', so that's pretty funny.
Snider disses Turner, Callen now doesn't like Snider either, Sam doubts even Snider's mom likes him. His 'guys' don't like him, they shrug when Callen asks them. And I laugh, because I love their witty banter.
Eric and Nell basically confirm that Sitirov is a ghost, and then Sam tells them to tell him first if they find anything, because he doesn't want Snider to know.
In the sleeper agent's house, they can't find anyplace he would have put a bomb, then Nell tells them that there was supposed to be a basement to the house but one was (allegedly) never built. Deek's first reaction? 'RIVERDANCE!!' Naturally! No one knows what he's talking about lol but then he begins to tapdance like a madman and they all look at him until Kensi shouts 'you heard the man, Riverdance!!' That was just beautiful! Then they find a panel in the floor and a metal-locked box which Deeks says does NOT look like a wine cellar.
Speaking of wine, one of Sitirov's men was seen at a wine-storage facility - and then Deeks calls to tell them that the basement is empty of things, but full of radiation - Sitirov has the bomb.
Back at Ops, my beloved Eric gets to draw with glowy green pen on a giant screen and do a diagram of the type of reaction in a nuclear bomb and acts like a school teacher ('Anyone, anyone? Assistant Director Granger?' Bueller?) And then one of his best lines ever, this beautifully nerdy one right here:


Yea that's right. I learned how to add pictures to this blog. How cool am I?

Sam and Hetty are arguing (well, it's those 2 so they're speaking very calmly) about CIA, NCIS, boundaries, red tape, yadda yadda.. She says they could all be discharged and he says he doesn't care, pretty harsh when you're talking about the careers of other people!! She comes back with 'why would you?' Back upstairs, they're still talking math - 'Short answer, is a 35-year old bomb still viable?' 'What's your definition of viable?' 'Boom. Will they go boom.' 'Boom? Yes... They will.'
They interiew Arkadei again about who might want to kill Sitirov and he gives them a name. They go to inverview him, he denies knowing who's who, and so they 'jog his memory'. They throw some Russian names around, and suddenly Sam collapses to the ground in pain - and the guy runs. Except then he's caught by Deeks, who throws him into a garbage can and says 'Ohh that looked like it hurt. Now tell me, did it hurt, or did it just look like it hurt?' The guy says it hurt, and he feels like he broke his finger so Deeks says 'I hope it was your trigger finger, maybe now you'll stop shooting at people!' THIS GUY!
Then Granger shows up and has 'a talk' with Sam, saying he's 'got his back' and I'm very confused, plus my screen is lagging BIGTIME so I'm probably very mistaken but it looks like Sam and the old dude just did a fist-bump. And they mention someone named Quin and the rest of the team (minus know-it-all Callen) is just as mystified as I am. Aren't these convoluted shows fun??
They stake out Sitirov's hotel (Callen's on the rooftop scaring the crap out of me because I hate heights) and Deeks goes and plants a camera in the room, then Callen shoots RIGHT NEXT to Sitirov and Granger stands there calm as hell, the bad guys run back inside and Callen (with a dog?) comes down the stairs and OH Kensi shows one of the Russian guys the video of the bad guy from earlier running down some stairs and says he just came past her ahahaha so clever!
Sitirov orders a hit on the broken-finger guy and his boss, and Sam leaves a prison and gets into a car with a woman who he promptly starts kissing... And they sleep together and she knows he's married!! I'm so confused... So apparently she's Quin cos then some bad guys come busting in and hold a gun to his face. And apparently Sitirov's FIRST name is Isaac, why didn't I know that before, it's WAY easier to spell! So ISAAC tells Quin that he wants her to kill this guy, gives her a million bucks but doesn't want to see Sam again because 'I don't share my women'. Pig! And based on the snake-eyes that girl behind him was giving Quin, I guess 'his women' don't like sharing him, either!
Apparently not all the sleepers actually HAD a bomb, only 4 total did (one they have, 3 taken by the bad guys). Then Granger walks in with bad news that a woman had been found dead in Santa Monica Bay, Isaac has left the country, and they look sombre.
They get there and it's the brunette from his hotel room (altho they let you think it was Quin, those sneaky bastard writers!) then Snider shows up and is an antagonising bastard so Sam shoves him into the water and wrestles with him (wrecks his suit, too!) and the rest of the team tackles the CIA agents who pull their guns. When Kensi begs Callen to fill her in, he says 'It wasn't supposed to happen this way. They worked together for months, and they fell in love.' I KNEW IT!
Then they show Sam at home telling his wife they need to talk, and IT'S HER!! Clearly she's fine lol... But she says being back undercover has made her feel 'alive again' and he's all worried and I'm like 'DUDE YOU TWO HAVE A CHILD, THINK OF HER SAKE!!' Then he takes off his wedding ring, looks like he's crying, takes her gun out of the safe and ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? IT'S ANOTHER CLIFFHANGER!!! DAMNITALL!!!

HIMYM - 'Splitsville'

Nick and Robin are going to break up now because they haven't slept together in 3 days because Nick pulled his groin in Marshall's basketball league... Ted has a team too but they're all architects so instead they spend practise staring at the building and saying how they'd improve it.. And I just noticed something funny - Barney was about to take a bite of food, said a line, and dropped the same peice of food back into his container without actually eating anything!!
Apparently Nick is really dumb haha he doesn't think Gypsies exist haha! So they think Robin's going to break up with him and Marshall (who is working out with Marvin attatched to his chest lol) is all freaked out about the possibility of Nick being thrown off his game XD
OMG Barney threatens that if Robin doesn't break up with Nick, he'll send out an invite to 'Robin and Patrice's BFF Fun Day!' HAHAHA Patrice is back!!!
So she takes him to a dessert place called Splitsville that apparently is THE place to break up with people lol (I wish I knew a desert place, that's my favourite part of a meal hahaha) and then he gets a call and gets really sad and so she can't dump him (Marshall is really excited about this because he will not be able to play and not be distracted - but if he had a family member die, wouldn't he be distracted by THAT??)
Anyway it turns out that it was his doctor on the phone, and his groin injury is worse than they thought, it's going to take too long to heal so he's going to miss the tournament and Marshall becomes all hulk-like with rage ahahah
Nick tells Robin that they can have sex again because it doesnt matter his injury will take a long time to heal anyway, and then Barney runs down to the restaurant and interrupts and says 'you can't go home together, because Robin and I are in love' O.O
Who would have seen that coming?? (Well, I did kinda, but still!) So dramatic! I thought there would be a few more weeks after they broke up, where Barney is being his usual crazy single self - not that he'd be the reason they broke up!! And damn, this is awkward, because now Ted and Barney are in love with Robin and I dont know what Robin thinks of either of them, but I dont think there's ever been a show that I've seen with a love triangle between three MAIN characters before!!! Not like this!!
Then Barney says 'Robin doesn't want to break up with you, because you're a nice guy and she diesn't want to hurt your feelings. But she thinks you're dumb and she hates you. You're welcome' XD
AWWWW Barney has a huge speech about how much he is in love with Robin and everyone else heard about it because they'd been on speakerphone (which she knew) and they're all shocked too!
Plus apparently it's a bedroom dryspell for Lily and Marshall too because uncannily, every time they go to even hug, Marvin cries on cue lol so Ted takes him for a walk (what a good friend haha)
Barney says he faked the speech and Robin's skeptical but DAMN they're so cute... And her phone rings and it's Patrice WHOOPS Barney sent the invitation acidentally hahaha so she shoves him lol so adorable!!!
This wasn't so bad an episode, as far as breakup-episodes go lol except they totally wrote in the whole Nick-being-dumb thing because he was never stupid before, only overenthusiastic, like a big dog... Whatever lol he went home with 2 women from the restaurant who had also just been dumped, so I guess he's fine haha

Bones - 'The Patriot in Purgatory'

Hey ya'll! I've heard so much hype about this episode (especially from the Twitter of series creator Hart Hanson!) and it's supposed to be very intense and moving.
Now you don't know this about me, but I LOVE history, especially war history. It fascinates me, but also makes me incredibly sad. I have a feeling this episode will do the same thing. I'm in the process of writing a posting on my other blog about the topic of Rememberance Day (or Veterans Day, in the US), I'll post a link here when it's finished.
So we've got ALL the squints together (including Clark, damn his boringness) and Cam doesn't even know why, so first they all argue, and then Finn talks some sense into all of them and they all start looking at the body (and competing over who does what).
Bones has been learning everything about basketball because she wants to encourage the interns to work as a team lol... And they need to find the identities of the people in the 'hall of hopeless cases' so Fisher assumes they've done something wrong lol and then once they all agree to work together, Bones pats them all on the butt and says 'attaboy' and they all just kinda stare at her as she leaves! I love those boys, I hope they are even funnier all together than they are seperately!
Hodgins says, and I concur, that 'this is a beautiful thing', seeing the 5 of them working together and every now and then popping up and saying 'I found one!' It's so good to see these people finally being given back their identities.
Vasiri could not find a profile that matched one of the sets of remains, and through a few random observations, they eventually learn that he was a homeless man who was beat to death 10 days after 9/11, he was injured in the attack on the Pentagon, and he fought in Desert Storm.
Then Finn asks Vasiri if it was hard for him to be working on a profile of a September 11th victim, because he shared the same religion as the men who launched the attacks. They all feel incredibly awkward and start having religion/race arguments, and Vasiri launches a very impressive monologue about how those men didn't just attack the country, they attacked his religion too. It was very moving and convincing - and then Finn says 'Thank you sir. Thank you for setting me straight.' Vasiri smiled and they continue working. And I made an 'Aww' noise - Finn is so sweet and genuine! :)
Booth eventually finds his identity, the man's name was Tim Murphy, he had a wife and son but hadn't been seen by them in 15 years. And now I start tearing up. And even more when they interview his wife, and she talks about how her husband came back from the war a changed man and suffered from extreme PTSD and could not stay indoors because he was afraid of someone attacking his house.
The boys are talking about 9/11 and then Fisher says 'OK this isn't going to work until we ignore the pachyderm' and Clark asks if he was locked up in a loony bin or a zoo (I'm also wondering if he was locked up in the same loony bin as our beloved Zach!) and then they all talk about where they were that day. I now understand why they always call Finn a kid, because he says that when the attacks happened he was being driven to the hospital by his mother because he had 'gotten in the way of my stepfather when he was beating my mama, and he stuck me with scissors. But my pain didn't seem like anything compared to the pain of that day'. He was 9 years old at the time. I was almost eight. But the saddest story of all was poor Wendell, he was staying with his aunt at the time, and her husband was a firefighter in New York - who never came home. And Michael Grant Terry deserves an Emmy, because the sadness in his voice when he said that was so real that it made me cry and want to hug someone.
DAMN I'm crying again, because Booth heard that Murphy (the homeless man they found) always stood outside the Pentagon yelling to everyone who walked past 'Walk in Moore Park!', and then Booth found a photo of him with some other soldiers whose names were Walken, Moore, and Park. The 3 of them were killed when their army barracks were bombed - and he survived. Apparently he wrote 56 letters to the army trying to get his friends awarded the Silver Star and when that didn't work, he stood outside the Pentagon shouting their names because he wanted people to remember them. And I think Sweets put it best when he said 'That's not crazy at all.' Oh my goodness, it's just so sad :(
Then when the interns try to determine who killed him, they find that there is the blood of 3 other people on his clothes - that of 3 people who had worked at the Pentagon when it was hit, and survived. Booth and Bones go to interview one of them, and she immediately recognises the photo of Murphy and says 'that's the man who rescued me! Do you know where he is so I can thank him?' and I started crying again! I need a Kleenex box...
Eventually they determine through their teamwork that Murphy was hit by debris from the plain crash, and this debris cracked his rib. When he lifted concrete off the 3 people (Angela determined over 400 pounds of concrete, which would explain the fractures in his knees), it broke the rib completely, causing it to bend inward and puncture his lung. It took him ten days to bleed to death. No one beat him. He was killed because he was honouring the memory of 3 dead soldiers, and saving the lives of 3 innocent victims.
Then they have a funeral for him, and Booth gives an incredibly touching speech, and at this point I'm thinking I can never watch this episode again, because despite the awesomeness of having the 5 interns together, it is the saddest episode of anything that I have ever seen. That is the mark of an incredible TV show, to take something so tragic like the events that had happened in Murphy's life, and then his death, and make us learn from them and relate to the characters even more - because their sadness makes them seem even more real. Especially Wendell and Finn and Vasiri. Wow. Bravo, Bones writers.
But I'm seriously hoping next week is happier (at least relatively speaking, for a show that deals with death), because I don't know if I could handle that again.

SNL - Anne Hathaway & Rihanna

Hey all! Today is a very special day for me, because this is my 100th post on this blog!! I'm kind of surprised, I've been doing it less than a year and I gave up on the end of last season.. But then again, this blog isn't called 'Emily Watches a Perfectly Normal Amount of TV'... Also, my first post and my 100th are both SNL, so this coincidence makes me very happy :) So thanks for reading, and enjoy the blog, I hope it's a good one!
I KNEW they were going to open with something about Romney since he lost the election.. Apparently he stands on his porch drinking copius amounts of milk and  being unable to tell his sons apart. (I can't blame him, they are all played by Taran!) And they're all trying to get his attention to come inside and see something, one of them says 'Paul Ryan is doing feats of strength in the drawing room!' and the second one says 'Donald Trump is doing this hilarious thing, where and Aidyhe's racist?'
I have always loved Anne Hathaway, she's adorable and always seems so happy and bubbly! I have to admit though I hate her hair short... And suddenly they're all singing a parody of 'One Day More' from Les Mis (because she's in the movie they're making) and for some reason she is fed up with Jason lol and Keenan didn't know when the election was!
Now there's a fake talk show where they're arguing over who is Cecily's character's best friend, and they talk like valley girls lol and Aidy's character hates Forever 21 and is super-jealous of Cecily's new best friend Anne haha
I think they're replacing the Digital Shorts with musical montages of random people doing weird things all over Manhattan... Such as Taran dancing weirdly while Keenan sings about it lol and Anne falls in love with him because of his weird dance because he was in a lab experiment O.o
And a Homeland parody lol... Three sketches between commercials?? This has to be a new record!! And I've never understood this show lol but Anne is playing a crazy unstable lady and it's hilarious 'David no, no no, David, no, David, no, no, David, no!' Bill says 'She makes some good points, David'. HAHA and she loves corkboards! yay! I probably would find this funnier if I watched the show, but this is pretty damn funny as it is! And she's all shakey haha
This next sketch is at a McDonalds, Anne is the nerdy manager and she has to fire people, Bobby and Cecily are all 'WE KNOW YOU'RE GONNA FIRE US! YOU ALL HATE US!' so they start insulting everyone lol and I know she's not gonna fire them otherwise it wouldn't be funny.. Ok what kind of name IS Nelliot?? Also I think this is the first time they've had EVERY cast member in one sketch :P They fire the last person they were insulting, and then they're like 'ohhh shoot..' hahah ahh we even out the 3-sketches thing by having a commercial break after only 1 lol
OK I liked Rihanna back in the day, but now she's trying too hard to be edgy.. No one on SNL uses a greenscreen!! It's cheesy!!! Especially since her bend members are kinda just blending into the background...
Weekend Update time!!! I know it is coming every week, but I still get really excited for it every week XD And they have Obama on!! (Well, they have Jay Pharoah as Obama on lol) and he tells Seth to 'bounce with me' and then compares Romney running for president to 'watching someone wearing rollerskates try to climb stairs' LMAO LOVE IT
Also I'm pretty sure the mop-baby-outfit thing isn't new O.o but who cares lol.. Fred and Bill are a gay couple from Maine and they're not very easily excited lol but they do have matching touques and they've registered for their wedding at LL Bean XD
I love Seth's facial expressions so much lol but if he keeps raising eyebrows so cutely he's gonna get forehead wrinkles... DRUNK UNCLE!!!! He of course, makes no sense talking about back in his day 'If we wanted a house of representatives, we built one ourselves', and now people are all 'is this ballot 4G?' and 'Can I vote with a Groupon?' he even refers to himself as 'Drunk Uncle' hhahaha is he supposed to be Seth's uncle? cos I'm pretty sure he's younger than Seth... And I never understand why they say 'goodnight' at the end of Weekend Update when it's in like the middle of the show lol
YAAY ELLEN!!! Kate does an epic job of playing her lol and odd, she talked about popcorn, I'm eating popcorn O.o weird! And Anne as Katie Holmes lol 'If you read US Weekly, you know Suri and I spend every waking moment at the zoo' love it!
OMG it's the story behind that painting 'American Gothic', the one with the serious-looking farmer man and woman, with the pitchfork!!! Hahaha before he'd wanted to hold a tennis racket, then a corn puppet lol
Rihanna's back.. And now the band members aren't lit up at all - something tells me shes a diva lol.. You know girrly, music is about teamwork! That's where harmony comes from!! I also can't get over the weird juxtaposition of such dramatic music with such a silly show lol.. Don't get me wrong I'm not hating on her, she is incredibly talented lol
A fake commercial about fake allergies hahaha Fred pretends to be allergic to cigarette smoke (smelling that stuff actually gives me a brutal headache...) and Vanessa freaks out over someone eating yogurt lol 'I am EXTREMELY lactose intolerant. Even though YOU'RE eating it, I can still get sick!'
Anne looks like she's about to cry as she's saying goodbye.. And she thanks the writers! Second shoutout of the years! And she thanks the NBC pages! Yaay! This is why I love her!! She's so adorable! Even Rihanna wants to hug her lol And then she asks Rihanna who she wants to thanks, and Rihanna says her mom... Awwwe :)
This was such a great episode, I'm happy for it to be my 100th post, and I'm so happy to have people who read my posts!! Over 2600 hits so far!! Yaay!! So thank you for reading, have a great night, and I'll be back on Monday!!
