FOX Picks Up “Gotham”

[youtube=http://youtu.be/0d1zpt6k5OI]

Wow, I am VERY excited by this news. I’ve always enjoyed Batman and the many times that they have redone it even that really hip cartoon version that aired on Saturday mornings called Batman Beyond. I feel like I’ve seen every version since I’ve been alive at least.

One reason that I am excited about this series is because Ryan Atwood IS Jim Gordon. WHAT? Shocker. Plot twist. It’s such a great casting and I can’t wait to see where this goes. I’m also pretty happy that Ben McKenzie has found another thing to jump into after Southland. What do you guys think of the trailer? Would you watch it?

The O.C. – The 10th Anniversary

[vimeo http://vimeo.com/42540977]

In the midst on some craziness last week, we completely forgot all about celebrating the 10 year anniversary of The O.C. Not only did the television series provide a somewhat accurate representation of what it’s like to live in Orange County (kind of,) but they also paved the way for what would become some of the best soundtracks a television series could offer. The cast was full of beautiful people each with characters that were well-developed and complex throughout the season. Marissa Cooper, there is no one like you on TV and there never will be! Ryan Atwood was the bad boy turned sensitive bro and we loved every second of it. And last, but not least – Seth and Summer. There is no one more perfect for each other than these two. We laughed, cried, and were terrified for our lives especially during that weird “Oliver” period. The show taught us some incredible lessons – lessons at 13 that I am still carrying on in life today. I wouldn’t be able to tell you them right now, but we’ll save that for the 20th anniversary. So on this Wednesday – Hump Day – we are celebrating the anniversary. I’ve included the entire first episode above and we all know how great this pilot was so take 44 minutes out of your day, relax, and enjoy the show. Unfortunately, Mischa Barton spoke out about rumors of a reunion earlier this week and her thoughts that it should not happen. Really? It might do your career some good Mischa. Regardless, the show will live on and we’ll love it forever.

Welcome to the O.C. bitch.

And because we want this to come around full circle… my favorite clip from the last episode. Spoiler alert. What have you been doing with your time if you haven’t seen this by now?

Cory Monteith Found Dead At 31

I am saddened to come home to news that Cory Monteith has passed away today at the age of 31. The breakout star of Glee became an overnight-singing sensation through the hit show, but openly admitted to the media recently that he was seeking treatment for his drug addiction in rehab.  Things were looking up for the young actor and his girlfriend and co-star Lea Michele expressed her support by staying by the actor’s side through this. Unfortunately, Cory was found in his room today at the Fairmont Pacific Hotel.

I can only imagine how difficult this is for the entire Glee cast and crew. Our prayers are with those close to Cory.

I am a “Voice” fan through and through, but I really enjoyed this performance from Fifth Harmony off of X-Factor

Oh No

I wasted a half hour of my life on the show “Mobbed.”

Flash Mobs for wedding proposals and romantic gestures – okay, I see where you’re headed with that.
For apologies though? Never have I seen something so awkward!

Oh Howie Mandel… if only you could just revive Bobby’s World.

Happy Birthday To The New Girl

Happy 32nd Birthday Zooey Deschanel!

Truth

I’m convinced that there is no one in the world as weird as Zooey Deschanel’s character, “Jess” in real life.

Seriously. No one.
