Big Brother 9: Joshuah and James Nominated For Eviction
Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Prime Time, Reality, CBS, Editorial, Features, News,
God-loving, bikini and knee sock wearing Natalie is getting her smiley-faced revenge on Big Brother 9 house mates who plotted to oust her “soul mate” Matt. Last night Natalie, the Head of Household, nominated Joshuah and James for eviction. Surprisingly enough it was Joshuah’s first nomination, not bad considering how conniving and cruel he has been in the house thus far.
The show began with Natalie basking in the glory of her HOH win. She credited God and a kooky reliance on lucky numbers. Joshuah was shocked and embarrassed that Natalie beat him in a “mental” competition. Sheila hoped Natalie’s HOH win would bring her closure and vengeance for Matt’s eviction. Adam took Natalie’s win as a sign that there may really be a God, one who favors dim-witted bikini barista/slash carnival artists from The Beaver State.

MONDAY (3/31)
- Dancing with the Stars (ABC, 8pm): The top 10 dancers take the floor tonight. If Marlee Matlin also manages to master the fast jive, she’ll have my votes from this point out.
- The Big Bang Theory (CBS, 8pm): “Sheldon gets sick, but the guys refuse to take care of him because he’s such a bad patient.” So is there such thing as a good male patient?
- How I Met Your Mother (CBS, 8:30): “Barney tries to find the mystery woman who’s out to ruin his reputation, and he uses the basketball tournament-bracket template to eliminate 64 suspects.” Okay - if CBS can’t get around to finally renewing this series, I will give them 64 reasons why I hate them.
- New Amsterdam (FOX, 9pm): “When a murder victim in Chinatown murder reminds John of a son he lost in the early 20th century, the investigation leads to a ruthless crime family who are related to his offspring.” And I thought Terminator‘s storyline was trippy.

Checking into the Big Brother House: Chelsia Gets the Boot
Posted by Jacci Lewis Categories: Prime Time, Reality, CBS, Editorial, Features, News,
It has been a couple of weeks since I’ve written about Big Brother 9. While I’ve watched most of the episodes in between then and now, I have to say it was getting to be a bit like my on-again, off-again relationship with the soap opera One Life to Live. I’ve missed years at a time and still know exactly what the storyline is.
A quick recap of the past few weeks: James was voted out then quickly voted back in when the house guests were given the chance to either bring back a mystery house guest (Alex) who had already been evicted or bring back James. In an odd turn of logic, even some of the guests who gave James the boot voted him back in within a few minutes. (I think they feared the mystery guest was either super-annoying Amanda or super-annoying Jen.)
Once James got back in the house, he and Chelsia began a reign of terror that ended with Boston roofer Matt evicted and his former “soul mate” daft Oregon bikini barista Natalie vowing revenge. Later, under-the-radar king Adam won Head of Household. He nominated Chelsia and James for eviction but James later won the Power of Veto and saved himself. Adam then put Sharon up as a pawn next to Chelsia bringing us to tonight’s eviction: Chelsia is out.

MONDAY (3/24)
- How I Met Your Mother (CBS, 8:30): The overly-promoted Britney Spears cameo finally airs tonight. Let’s just be happy the show is only 30-minutes long.
- Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious (CW, 9pm): Nicole Scherzinger gives the girls tips on vocal expression. Sadly, advice on releasing solo albums is not something she can dish out.
- CSI: Miami (CBS, 10pm): New episode. “A bride is murdered at her wedding. The investigation takes the CSIs to a strip club where the bachelor party took place.” Strip club? This would be the perfect time for another Elizabeth Berkley appearance.
- The Hills (MTV, 10pm): Season premiere. I wonder if LC wore any of her own designs in Paris. Doubt it.

CBS Not Renewing Jericho
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, CBS, Cancellations,
Sorry, Jericho fans - your beloved show has officially come to the end of its run. CBS finally announced today what many had already anticipated: The program will not be coming back next year.
This news means next week’s episode will be the season - and series - finale. Thankfully, the producers were prepared for this possible development. Two endings were created in hopes of giving devoted viewers some sense of completion. Unfortunately, I don’t believe Jericho could have ever ended the way anyone wanted it to.

Survivor Micronesia: Like a Wide-Eyed Kid in the Candy Store!
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, CBS, Survivor, Editorial, Features,
On tonight’s episode of Survivor: Micronesia, the castaways were really starting to feel the effects of their long stay on the island. After over two weeks in the game, the survivors were starting to grate on each other’s nerves. The miserable weather was also taking a toll on their psyches. Who was able to power through – and who just had to throw up their arms and quit?
Frustrated by the lack of eggs they were receiving, a hungry Tracy suggested killing off one of Malakal’s three resident chickens. If they weren’t going to put out, she was going to cut them up. Ozzy, knowing that he could always fish for more food, thought that this was a ridiculous idea. The birds were still producing, just not as many as she would like. Why would she get rid of a renewable source? Ozzy’s bossiness, of course, frustrated underdog Tracy because he was acting like a “kingpin”. Not only was he the retriever of the food, he was also the decision-maker on when they would eat it as well.

Oh Brother, More Big Brother Coming
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, CBS, Renewals,
Despite lackluster ratings this winter, CBS has opted to run another edition of Big Brother this upcoming summer. Although a start date has not yet been announced, it’s quite possible we’ll be seeing back-to-back installments of the reality show.
The voyeuristic program has been a staple on the Eye network’s summer schedule since 2000. Thanks to the writers’ strike, a special season was ordered and began airing on February 12th. Although the show has seen moderate success during the less crowded television calendar, it has experienced a large ratings hit during the colder months. A lot of that blame goes to American Idol.
Big Brother‘s first eight seasons have primarily aired between July and September.

Pic of Britney Spears on How I Met Your Mother
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, CBS,
Here’s your first glance of Britney Spears during her upcoming appearance on CBS’ How I Met Your Mother. If this shot does not scream overacting, I don’t know what does. (You can see another one of her scenes, after the jump.)
Mark your calendar for Monday, March 24 to see if it gets any better than this.

MONDAY (3/17)
- Dancing with the Stars (ABC, 8pm): Tonight’s Season 6 premiere focuses only on the men. I think it’s safe to say Julianne Hough won’t be making it a three-peat with Adam Carolla.
- The Big Bang Theory (CBS, 8pm): New episode. “Sheldon and Leonard are asked to a physics conference to present their work together.” I’ve always wondered - if this show were to air on any other day, would it be half as successful?
- How I Met Your Mother (CBS, 8:30): New episode. “Ted decides to live life like Barney on St. Patrick’s Day.” You don’t want to know what they use as their lucky charms.
- Two and a Half Men (CBS, 9pm): New episode. “Charlie teaches Alan how to break up with a woman.” I hear hiring prostitutes can make a woman leave you.
- The Bachelor (ABC, 9:30): Season 12 premiere. “Bachelor Matt Grant, a 27-year-old British financier, meets his 25 would-be soul mates.” Apparently in America, you can finally afford to woo twice as many women as you can in the UK.

Survivor Micronesia: It Hit Everyone Pretty Hard!
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, CBS, Survivor, Editorial, Features,
Tonight’s episode of Survivor: Micronesia really gave us an idea of how the game can take a toll on competitors physically. It also shone a light on the survivors’ true characters. How badly did they want to win the million dollars? What were their breaking points? How fairly did they like to see their fellow challengers treated?
Although most of the Malakal tribal members were happy with Joel’s elimination, Erik was left stunned by the events at Tribal Council. He finally realized that the Favorites were not ones to be trusted and knew that it was important to make a move soon. Even though she was integral in the firefighter’s dismissal, Tracy was still bothered by her status in the game. Keeping Chet around really didn’t help with the numbers; the Fans were still down 3 to 4.
