The Bottom Line: "Superb"

In a continuation of the amazing storylines, Paris brings two couples closer that they should be. Victor and Ashley finally reunite, but for some reason it seems to me that the only thing Victor really needed to get better was sex. But I guess that's not the thing. I'm interested to see how this will all develop. With that much of history between the two and the possible complications that come from this pairing, this ought to bring a lot of fun to me.

The other couple, and more complicated one, are Nick and Sharon. That kiss took us all by surprise, but it's yet another thing that will bring loads of fun for me as a viewer. I hope Phyllis bursts out and she finally starts acting more like herself.

Noah and Eden weren't that interesting, but I guess they were okay filler. The people at the Chancellor mansion were also great, while Jill and Nikki were amazing in their search after Katherine. The ending was so amazingly strong that I just can't wait to see the upcoming episode.

The Bottom Line: "Great"

In the aftermath of the car crash, we get to see how the three women react to the possibility of something happening to Katherine. I was shocked when the bloody hand emerged from the car, and it was great to see the others worrying about her. Kevin seems to be doing amazing lately. His personality is what makes him so special and he's become too boring previously. He's finally got it again. And even if they are just hanging around, I love to see Amber and Daniel like this. It's just wonderful.

The Paris stuff was okay. The scenes between Victor and Ashley were quite interesting to watch and it resulted just like I expected it too. Meanwhile, I can't wait to see where the Nick and Sharon stuff will lead. The shoot, meanwhile, was nothing special, just like Noah's and Eden's scenes.

A Request...Flack/Angell Video

ok so I LOVE the pairing of flack and angell, however going through youtube i noticed that there aren't really a lot of videos of the pair featuring clips from this season, so i was wondering if someone would be willing to make a video of the pairing featuring the song "Her Eyes" by Pat Monohan? If so, I would be forever in your debt and you would be able to be my first born's tv.com godparent

TV, Gaming, Music and Internet Life

Hi All,

It's been a couple of months so I figured it was probably about time for a new blog. Had a busy October/Early November at work, having to travel a lot, so I've been struggling to sit down and make myself blog! But here we are, so excuse me while I ramble on a little about my last couple of months! Let's split it into categories so that it's a little easier to read!

TV (No spoilers, I promise):

Let's see, what have I been watching in the last couple of months?

I'm into Chuck in a big way lately. It's a really fun show, weird concept but I love it. I would probably just repeat everything I said in my review for the show, so I won't bore you, but it's a really great show - excitement, espionage and just good all round entertainment! I just received the Season 1 DVDs in the mail and although I only watched season 1 within the last couple of months, I'm really loving watching it again. Check it out if you haven't already!



Next up, I've been watching lots of The L Word. I've watched many episodes of the show over the past few years, but as I was never a steady watcher (watched when I noticed it on), I got the storylines all jumbled up - I'd watch a S5 ep, then an S1 ep...etc. I've started from the beginning and I'm seeing the show in a new light now. I'm up to the 5th episode of season 3 so far (I think). I'm spoiled in the sense that I know how the season ends because that was one of the episodes I saw previously, but it's nice to now see the run-up to it. This one is not going to be a show for everyone like Chuck, but if you like a bit of relationship drama & some laughs, give it a try.



I've also been watching Samantha Who. I wasn't sure I'd like this one, but I'm actually really enjoying it! The episodes are only 30 minutes long, so they're nice and short for when I just feel like watching something before bed. I love the storyline - girl gets amnesia, finds out about the old her & tries to change herself. I would fit this one into the same kind of category as Chuck. In 30 years, I'm sure people won't really remember either of the shows - they're really fun shows now, but I doubt they'll last a whole lot of seasons (unfortunately) and they won't ever be a c.lassic, but in the here and now they're great entertainment and I love 'em!



Gaming:

A few months ago at work, I was awarded with a 150 pound prize for...I don't know, not being sarcastic for a day probably. I could either claim a gift worth 150 pounds (in their opinion, in mine the gifts were worth 50 pounds and were being tagged as 150 pounds ) or I could get vouchers. I left the balance on the reward site for a while because I wasn't sure what I wanted to do, but in recent weeks I started to get back into gaming again. I had a PS2 previously, but it just wasn't doing it for me as much anymore, so I decided I wanted an XBox. Drew out my vouchers a couple of weeks back and purchased a shiny new Xbox. Tis very purty sitting in the middle of my floor.

I'm still getting the hang of the controls (keep forgetting which button is RB...Game tells me to press RB and I press the wrong button & it screams at me. ) but I'm getting there!!

Went on a little game-buying spree, but with Christmas upon us I've been banned from buying myself anything else, so for anyone interested, here is my current collection which will hopefully expand on Dec 25.

Project Gotham Racing 4 (came with the console)
Sega Superstars Tennis (came with the console)
The Simpsons Game
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition
Skate.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Halo 3
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas
Grand Theft Auto IV

Any recommendations, let me know! And for anyone interested, my gamercard is over on my Gamespot profile.

Music:

Been on a bit of a buying spree lately and when my previous MP3 player died, I did something I never thought I'd do...bought an iPod.



Purty huh?

Internet Life:

As I haven't blogged for so long, I didn't really get a chance to properly thank everyone for their congratulations on becoming a mod...so thank you to everyone! Thank you to the "old" mods for their advice & assistance while us "young" ( ) mods learnt the ropes...much appreciated!

Other internet life stuff? Hmm, still playing away on Pogo, earning my weekly badges, still stumbling around the world wide web occasionally. Spending most of my time either here or at xbox.com though, looking at my pretty achievements!

Well, I'll stop talking now as I think this is way too long (well done if you got this far without skipping parts!). Hopefully I won't leave it quite so long between blogs next time.

Thanks for stopping by!
