Starting today ABC is bringing back most of their returning shows in what they are calling “Bring in the New Week”. I don’t know what ABC’s obsession lately is with naming weeks. In the fall their season premieres were part of “Stay At Home Week”. Now we have “Bring in the New Week”. Maybe ABC [...]

S3.E10 “Bad Amanda” (12/4/08): Betty is becoming more and more irritated by roommate Amanda. She eats her food, wears her clothes, and never pays for anything. The rent is coming due and Betty doesn’t know how to pay for it. The two decide to write an article called “How I Blew Ten Grand Without Spending [...]
Grey’s Anatomy S5.E9 In the Midnight Hour
Last night’s episode of Grey’s Anatomy was probably one of the worst episodes of the season for Grey’s Anatomy. The problem with the episode is that none of the stories last night were that interesting.
First of all there was the continuation of the terrible Izzie/Denny storyline. Why couldn’t have [...]

Grey’s Anatomy S5.E8 These Ties That Bind
After last week’s abrupt departure of Dr. Hahn a lot of things have changed at Seattle Grace. I still disagree with the abrupt write off of Hahn (even though I really didn’t like Hahn). Since Hahn was replaced it was time to bring in two new characters. Replacing Hahn [...]

Grey’s Anatomy S5.E7 Rise Up
It’s good to see Grey’s Anatomy returning to it’s humorous ways. This was probably the funniest episode of Grey’s Anatomy in quite a while. You had the chief torturing George with the robot patient (hilarious in my opinion). You also had Sloane trying to hit on Christina despite being unsuccessful for [...]
Survivor: Gabon S17.E7 “Apple in the Garden of Eden”: As a Kenny fan I was very happy to see him pull off a great strategic move. I’ve never been a fan of the Kota 6 and losing Marcus wasn’t a big deal to me. I’m hoping Corinne, who is really starting to grate on my [...]
Rave: While some people will probably disagree (especially PETA members), I really like the addition of Owen to the cast. The reason that I like the character is that it is original. Maybe a little psychotic, maybe a little messed up, but interesting none the less. I like originality in my television characters. While I [...]
Obviously the biggest news regarding Ugly Betty is the news that Lindsay Lohan’s stint on the show has been cut short. To tell you the truth this really didn’t come as much of a surprise to me. I personally don’t even know why the show decided to add her in the first place. I have [...]
Last night’s episode of Ugly Betty was an episode of departures. As a matter of fact, four characters departed in the episode alone. While I approved of one of the departures, the other three kind of left me shaking my head since I didn’t think any of them were good choices. Due to this fact [...]
I don’t know if it is just me but last night’s episode of Ugly Betty was like CSI Fashion Crime Division. I you are a regular reader of this blog you probably already know that we at the Couch Potato aren’t what you would call crime drama fans. I don’t mind crime dramas but I [...]
