    The Bottom Line: "Perfect"

    Great episode. The medical case is very interesting and it also shows the important problem of drugs trials. The new character, the private ivestigator Lucas is amazing and it will bring more funny and great episodes. Especially for his interest in Cuddy. Again the study of people reactions is at the center and again House is right (like always). Anyway many things are changing and House might realize that going on with all his investigations and experiments on relationships and people would lead to complications and problems. But also more interesting challanges. Waiting for Wilson to come back, Lucas is the right character for new intrigued stories with House and Cuddy. Very nice episode.

    The Bottom Line: "Great"

    Even before watch it, you expect many great things from this show, especially because of the fame of its creator. After the pilot, it's not well clear how the show will develop, but it is definitely a show with a lot of potential. The character of the scientist is misterious and hilarious at the same time and all those experiments are incredible. Out of the world because they are weird and also too much theoretical, but interesting and funny. Action, science, and science fiction are well mixed. There is also the investigation part which is well written and act. A good show that I'm sure will reveal many interesting things in the next episodes.

    The Bottom Line: "Superb"

    THey all looked really funny in those suits!
    *Hawkes was great all the chapter. Really smart and cool!
    *Flack was relaly funny as always!
    *Danny without glasses...at first I thought it was because of the suits but the second time he wears it he wears the glasses...
    *Lindsay was good too
    *DL...At least they were in the same room... ANd they seemed to be more comfortable around the other...
    *The case was good but the moment the husband appeared it was obvious it was him.
    * I absolutely loved the final moment. But I've found weird that Flack was there and Danny wasn't...How many times have we seen FLack talk to Sid??? But it was cool that he was there...But I missed Danny and the girls...

    We're Off!

    Hey All!

    It seems as though I just started getting back here, and I'm off again. This time for happy reasons. We're going to head over to the coast this week for a little relaxation at the beach. We also might drive down to Sea World San Diego one day. We did that last year with the Little Ladies and they loved it.

    I'll try to check back here again before we leave. If I can't make it, then I'll catch up with you all next week after we get back. Take care! Rochelle

    My October :)..............................Plus Survey :D

    Hey everyone .

    I know it's late , but I'm always worth the wait .

    Ah well actually, outside of the holiday (see previous blog about that one ), I didn't do that much in September, but here's what I remember :

    Away from TV.com:

    - I had 2 more family birthdays . My Mum (I bought her an Il Divo album ), and my nephew (I bought him a Navajo (Descendants of Native American Indians, also used as code makers in WW2) made bow and arrow set, which technically I shouldn't have been able to bring home with me, as it is actually a working weapon ). I wasn't around on my nephew's birthday , but I did phone him up from America to say Happy birthday though .

    - I had to go to a ear specialist to get my hearing checked out . For the last 6 months, my hearing has been acting a bit weird. As far as I'm aware, I can still hear everything normally, but I've continuously had what feels like some sort of blockage which causes a similar effect on me to what happens when you take-off/start to land in a plane (sometimes referred to as ear popping). The specialists gave me various treatments to sort it out, but nothing seems to have made a difference, and in truth, they have no idea what's wrong either . All that they've been able to deduce is that my hearing is fine, except it plays up when I'm introduced to a certain sound frequency, but then straight afterwards, everything goes straight back to normal, but nobody seems to know what actually causes that sound frequency in my daily life . So basically, I've got to just live with it , and just have regular check-ups every couple of months, so as to see if anything changes. Please wish me luck that nothing bad happens to me .

    - I lost my mobile/cellphone . I lost it somewhere in Universal Studios, LA . Expect details on my brand new phone in my October blog .

    Films I bought: The Covenant (2/5), Teen Wolf (2/5), Teen Wolf Too (2/5), Harold & Kumar Get the Munchies (aka: Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle) (3/5)

    TV Shows I bought: South Park: Season 2, The Muppet Show: Season 3

    Albums I bought: Only By the Night by Kings Of Leon

    Games I Bought: Sega Superstar Tennis (DS), Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (Wii) .

    I also bought some DVDS in America that you can't get in the UK :

    Films: Major League (4/5), Robin B Hood (New "Hong Kong" Jackie Chan film) (3/5), Tango & Cash (3/5).

    TV Shows: I Love Lucy: Seasons 1 and 2, The Mary Tyler Moore Show: Seasons 1 to 4, Walker Texas Ranger: Season 2.

    On TV.com:

    - I went up another level . And I threw my first Level Celebratory Party .

    - I got 3 new friends

    A Helping Hand

    Morning people! Not much to talk about in my personal life today so just a quick round up, I'm sure there's other stuff you're more interested in today...

    So it was a pretty uneventful weekend this week, I was just pleased to get the working week over with for a bit although this week is so busy it's unbelievable. I think I overdid tennis this week, from last Saturday to this Saturday I played on 7 different occasions and on Saturday I was just so knackered when I was playing. It's been a long time since I've felt glad to finish playing. I also think I've picked up my first tennis injury, I have a really bad hand/finger at the minute which I think I did on Tuesday. It just hurts when I play and now when I type. I've done more typing this weekend than I normally would and my left hand is suffering at the minute.

    In gaming I'm nearing completion of Assassin's Creed. I've taken down the full 9 targets and have completed all the side missions so it's really just a case of wrapping up the game now. Plenty of cut scenes to go through I've noticed. I'm also close to getting the most achievement points I've managed for one game, I'm yet to hit 700 but I fear I might be 5 points short. I have hit 7000 total gamer points exactly which is nice.

    To the main part of my blog I guess is my tv.com news. As most of you are well aware now I became a site mod on Friday. It's been a long wait since I was first asked thanks to the redesign but it was certainly worth it! There's a hell of a lot to read up on, now I really do have to know the ToS inside out which I've never really bothered with before. Plus I need to play catch up with the other mods learning who to look out for and how the moderation process works. My only concern really is that I do things differently to how they currently do it. I knew there was a lot involved in being a mod but there's more than I could've imagined that we can do. Thanks to everyone who has already congratulated me, it's much appreciated. I'd like to mention here as well that for those of you who don't know more_ncis_now is also a new site mod so go congratulate her as well! We'll officially be added into the 'Here to Help' section in a week or so, but starting now if anyone has any problems regarding moderations (or anything in general) do come to me! I'll be able to help one way or another so don't hesitate to send me a PM.

    I also guess that now my submitting days are going to be more limited in numbers, I haven't had too much to moderate yet so maybe I'll still be able to submit plenty. I'm pretty relieved though to have a new focus on the site, finding subs to continue submitting for a year and a half is pretty tiresome. I've made over 58,000 subs so a change was well overdue in my eyes. It also means I don't have to worry about holding onto the third place spot on the site. I know I've never needed to worry about it but as submitting was all I had I thought I might as well try to be as good as I can. I'd still like to hit level 90 and reach 60k subs but I guess that'll take a bit longer now, I'll be content for the time being to just look after my current guides rather than focusing on getting new ones.

    As for TV, I didn't manage to watch all the new airing episodes this week as there's just so many now! First up I watched Dirty Sexy Money 'The Birthday Present' which I thought was good. The show has just picked up right from where it finished which is no bad thing. Next up was Heroes 'One Of Us, One Of Them' which was another great instalment! I still really don't like Niki/Tracey, not really sure why though. I also saw Criminal Minds 'The Angel Maker' which saw a return to the regular episode set up. It was a good episode, I like a good back story behind the case and I'm glad to see that Hotch saw sense in the end. After finishing season 2 of Ugly Betty the other day I was able to begin on season 3. I watched 'The Manhattan Project' and it was like I'd never been away...maybe because I hadn't! Not sure about the new magazine set up but I do like the way the show is progressing.

    My album for the day is One Of The Boys by Katy Perry.

    My shuffle song for the day is 'Ruby' by The Kaiser Chiefs.

    My thing to ponder for today is: Why don't woodpeckers get headaches when they slam their head on a tree all day?
