TV Updates

I was finally able to catch up on TV shows that I follow religiously thanks to the recent holidays. Possible spoilers ahead!

24

The latest season of 24 which was marketed to focus more on Jack's relationship with his father proved the be the least exciting in the franchise. True they started with a nuclear bomb going off in L.A. but the storyline dwindled to all too similar plots without the shocking twists and treatments. Despite it's flaws, I still love the show. Considering how difficult it is to write a plausible storyline for a series that's one of a kind, one can't help but be forgiving.

The latest episode, Ep 21, brings back some of the elements that viewers have come to love.

Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip

Truly one of my favorites, it has been on hiatus since February and will air their final 2 episodes by the end of May. I'm just sad that it hasn't been renewed for a 2nd season. For a little bit of good news, Kim Raver, 24's Audrey Raines, will be part of NBC's new show "Lipstick Jungle" based on Candace Bushnell's novel. I love her!

Desperate Housewives

Still love Desperate Housewives. The latest season is far away from the shadows of the shaky 2nd.

Susan and Mike are back in each other's arms.
Edie finally got her wish.
Gabrielle is engaged to to the mayor.
And Lynette just blows you away. I'm bad but I wish Rick stays. Lynette needs someone to take care of her.

Oh, and I'm missing Bree.

Lost

Still have a lot of catching up to do. Frankly, grew tired of the all too mysterious plot that doesn't get resolved and the new characters that doesn't have anything to do with the story. (The addition of Rodrigo Santoro has served no purpose yet. He's seen standing in the sidelines since the start of this season.) They already have too much on their plate, I don't think adding more characters helps. They should be focusing on resolving the mystery that keeps adding up. Third season na!

Have totally lost touch with Heroes and Prison Break S2. Will just wait for the DVDs once it comes out. Can't wait for Kyle XY S2 this June!
