Sweeps

The end of the televsion year is upon us...even though nowadays it just marks the start of the new summer season (where the remaining "E-Ring"...which I liked... and "Commander in Chief"... which I loathed....will be burned off into cancellation oblivian). Bravo's shows have already started to end....Such as the "Real Housewives of Orange County" and "Blow Out"...

There are some that I'm really looking forward to. I can't wait for "NCIS" since spoilers say we're losing someone else this finale in the manner that we lost Caitlin Todd....I'm thinkin that we're going to lose Agent David since it really streches my credibility meter that the Mosad would send an agent to hang out with the NCIS....

"The Unit" better let us see what's going on with Tiffy and the Colonel soon. Since "Security" when we saw her open the door to someone (after she refused to end it when the Colonel watnted to) but not necessarily THE colonel left us hanging, nothing's been mentioned. DON"T DO THAT. I'm totally invested in this show and I'm pleased that it's holding it's own against "American Idol"....

"Grey's Anatomy" is of course my Sunday Night MUST SEE TV. It doesn't matter what happens on the show, I just can't get enough of it. I wonder if we're finally beginning to see the end of Addison/McDreamy. I'm thinking she's going to start knocking boots with Alex. A lot of passion between those two. Time will tell! Meredith interests me the least which is weird because she's the main character but Chris O'Donnell might perk things up for me. I've adored him since he became train

I used to be all about "Desperate Housewives" but it's kind of put me off this season. Bree's drinking thing just seems so everything Bree is not. Andrew's sordid allegations were disgusting. Now the direction of the Applewhite story has almost driven me to not watch the show. It's just icky. I do like that we're seeing a little growth out of Gabby but still....this show is somewhat on probation with me.

I've totally been diging "Top Chef" and "The Real Housewives". I really really really can't relate to the Real Housewives at all and I swear that most of the kids and some of the wives need to be drowned. Jo, the kept woman's, engagement ring costs almost as much as my house. How can I possibly feel their pain?

And this season's Grand Finale of "The West Wing". I'm curious to see how the Josh/Donna thing will finally play out. We already know from an earlier episode that CJ and Danny get married and have a kid. I'll admit that I'm not really into the Santos administration although I love the idea of Vinick as the Secretary of State.

Well I'll be back with what I think of some of these finales really soon!
