Posted on April 19, 2012 by , , and

Where will the evening take you? The world is your oyster. Set yourself down, allow yourself to relax, and click on your remote control. Explore the realms you only dream of and let your imagination run wild. You can be anything you want and anywhere you want with the use of a finger. Let your hair down, enjoy where the night takes you, and set yourself up for laugh after laugh. Thursday night’s television line up is just the fix you need for a week that is about to culminate in pure fun!

Last week on Community, we left Britta pining for an ex-boyfriend of hers who works for a carnival. She asked Annie for some help with self control and to prevent her from calling or texting her ex. Unfortunately for Annie, she didn’t know what she was agreeing to, and Britta’s crazy ran all over. Jeff became obsessed with meeting Britta’s ex in order to find out what special power he possesses that enables him to have such a hold over women. Dean Layborne (guest star John Goodman) enlisted Dean Pelton in order to help him in his quest to get Troy to join the Air Conditioning Repair Annex and was yet again unsuccessful.

On tonight’s episode, “Virtual Systems Analysis,” when the biology final exam is postponed, Jeff encourages everyone to join him for a three hour lunch, but Annie convinces Abed to let her spend some time with him in the dreamatorium instead. What starts as an innocent simulation of “Inspector Spacetime” becomes a more serious examination of the study group members, and Annie learns a little bit about what makes Abed tick.

Be a part of the community at 8/7c on NBC! Learn where to find episodes online of Community @ Clicker.

Tonight, I am also watching 30 Rock, The Office, & Awake.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 3/8/12

Posted on March 8, 2012 by , , and

It’s Thursday, which means we’re one step closer to the weekend for most of us. Of course, it also means no more school until the 20th for my kiddo, who is off Friday of this week, all next week, and the Monday after that for Spring Break. Happy joy… *laugh* So while I have that to look forward to, I’m going to be glad to get some great new episodes tonight. To find out what we think you should be watching tonight, check out our choices below.

Tonight is the spring finale of The Finder, which is both good and bad news. That’s bad news, because I quite enjoy this show. It’s not perfect, but I feel like the cast is gelling with every episode (as a new cast should), and the storylines are always fun. The good news is, Bones comes back in a month. Still…I’m sad to see this show go for now. I’m still not Willa’s biggest fan, but even with that, I think the show is great. The last episode was fun, seeing TJ Thyne as his Bones character, Jack Hodgins, come to Walter for help. This week’s looks really great, so I’m excited for it, even if it’s the last episode until April 6, when it returns in its new timeslot, on Fridays at 8/7c.

On tonight’s episode, “Eye of the Storm,” a severe hurricane strikes Southern Florida, but torrential weather will not stop Walter from searching for a female high school student who went missing during the storm. While Walter is stranded on Looking Glass Key at the Ends of the Earth Bar, Isabel visits the missing girl’s high school and uncovers clues that link her disappearance to foul play and a more serious and life threatening crime. Meanwhile, Willa’s probation officer is stormed in with Walter, Leo and Willa, and puts her differences with Willa aside to help the team solve the case of the missing girl.

Check it out tonight on FOX at 9/8c. Learn where to find episodes online of The Finder @ Clicker.

Tonight, I’m also going to be watching The Big Bang Theory, Person of Interest, Up All Night, Awake, & The Mentalist.

Kick back and relax, let yourself unwind, and release your stressors from the day. Television is meant for escape, and you’ve got a full night of programs ahead of you that will let you do just that. Settle in on your couch, put your feet up, because your fingers are about to do all of the work for you. Snag your remote and plug in the cordinates for your evening’s destination on your remote, and let your cares disappear. Tonight, your only concern is what you’re going to eat, because your favorite shows are on, and there is nothing else that matters. Settle in, enjoy, and drift into pure fantasy!

The Parks Department on Parks and Recreation left off with trying to give Jerry a surprise birthday celebration. That, and Leslie had of course undertaken far too many tasks while also trying to work her campaign. The two clashed, which left Jerry’s birthday party in shambles and Leslie realzing that maybe she did indeed need to take a short sabatacle from the Parks Department. Tom tried way too hard to impress Ann, and it made Tom realize how many “No Nos” that Ann crosses off on his list of things women do that he can’t stand. Both Ann and Tom drove April nuts, going back and forth trying to get her opinion on the other, which led April to drown herself in a little bit of booze. With Leslie taking a leave of absence, how will the Parks Department survive without her?

On tonight’s new episode, “Campaign Shake-up,” Leslie’s opponent, Bobby Newport, hires a very powerful campaign manager (guest star Kathryn Hahn). Meanwhile, Ron is forced to interview replacements for Leslie, and an unlikely employee discovers a soclution to a very challenging problem.

Get ready for fits of giggling at 8:30/7:30c on NBC! Learn where to find episodes online of Parks and Recreation @ Clicker.

I am also watching 30 Rock and Project Runway Allstars tonight!

Last week on NY Ink, the shop was in turmoil as Billy quit Wooster Street. Instead of sucking things up, Billy heads over to see Ami’s rival Chris Torres to see if he can help Billy make it as a tattoo artist. Also, Megan began to fall for a friend, which as everyone knows, can only lead down the wrong path.

Tonight, on “Living the Dream,” Jessica makes heavy waves in the shop when she shows some tattoos that she’s been doing on the side. Meanwhile, Tim drags Ami out for a little bit of surf and sand!

TLC is where the drama goes down, and it all starts at 9/8c. Learn where to find episodes online of NY Ink @ Clicker.

This evening, I’ll also be tuning in to 30 Rock, Parks and Recreation, and Project Runway Allstars.

When we last left off, the artists at NY Ink, Ami headed off to Miami to visit with his sweet little daughter and check on his shop. Jessica and Billy thought while Ami was away, they could do as they pleased. Even Megan got in on the action by having former employee Chris come around the shop. Tom was left in charge while Ami was gone and felt the pressure to be a hard ass.

Tonight, on “Give and Take,” after an inspiring tattoo, Ami invites a group of at risk teens to the shop.

Tune in at 9/8c to TLC to ink it up! Learn where to find episodes online of NY Ink @ Clicker.
