It's time for some TV TALK

1. Glee - This just gets better and better. Originally we thought that a show about a high school glee club could have musical numbers in it without considering the show to be a musical. We have decided that this show is a musical after all. Like all musicals there are some extremely unbelievable story lines going on but it still a cute campy show. The cheer leading coach, Sue Sylvester, is becoming one of my favorite TV characters right now. This past week showed her in a new light though. She has been 100% pure evil till now but her interaction with the downs syndrome little girl and then finding out she has a sister with DS was waaaaaay touching. I loved it.

2. Dancing with the Stars- We have loved this season. The real bad and unlikeables went early. Michael Irvin started horribly but he improved so much and came across as a good strong person and leader. He went out in 7th place. The last 5 were the 5 that should have been there. It appears Mya will win and deserves to win but we are rooting for Donny Osmond anyway. He is just so likable and is over 50 so that counts with us. The host Tom Burgeron may be the funniest ad libber I have ever seen. He alone makes the show worth watching.

3. Survivor - We have liked this year. I can't believe how Russell controlled his original tribe but he botched the merge completely. He may go tonight but we'll see. The show may become much less entertaining if he leaves I'm afraid.

4. Grey's Anatomy- Best writing they have ever had. They introduced some new characters and they have been good. I have REALLY enjoyed Izzie being gone but she is back tonight and that scares me. I wish she would leave the show.

5. A new entry to my must see list...Dinner Impossible. This comes on Wednesday at 9pm on the food channel. Chef Robert Irvine is told to show up somewhere and he is given a time limit to prepare a special feast for usually 200 people that must center around a certain theme each week. It is dramatic and entertaining.

6. Saved the best for last... AMAZING RACE!!!! Thank heaven for the Harlem Globetrotters. Flight Time and Big Easy ( pair of real current day Globetrotters) have been a hoot! This is just the best show on TV. If you are not watching it give it a try.

I'm back next week...I'm off and pedaling for now
