W/E Sat 5/3/08


This Week- This Week- In TV reviews we've got a review of ABC's "Dancing With the Stars" 2008 performance episode aired 4/22/08 plus "The Bachelor London Calling Review from the same night. Matt Grant is down to three and we’re curious if he will pick the granddaughter of a heart throb from my generation: Fernando Lamas.

We'll also be posting an American Idol update, as every week, the results from the elimination round on 4/30/08 immediately after the result is announced. We'll have a review of the prior performance round on 4/29/08 along with my critiques and guesses as to bottom three and who will get booted off. The review will have been written BEFORE the elimination round so my own prognostication skills will be subject to review and critique.

Finally, we have reviews of the Hell's Kitchen episode aired 4/22/08 and the Top Chef episode aired 4/23/08. The Top Chef wannabes had to prepare meals based on, of all things, a comedy show. This is a weird one.
All with pics and video you'll find nowhere else on the Internet.
Day by day posts with a summary below.

Joke(s) of the Week
In the hospital the relatives gathered in the waiting room, where their family member lay gravely ill.

Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and somber.

"I'm afraid I'm the bearer of bad news," he said as he surveyed the worried faces. "The only hope left for your loved one at this time is a brain transplant.

It's an experimental procedure, very risky but it is the only hope. Insurance will cover the procedure, but you will have to pay for the brain yourselves."

The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news. After a great length of time, someone asked, "Well, how much does a brain cost?"

The doctor quickly responded, "$5,000 for a male brain, and $200 for a female brain."

The moment turned awkward. Men in the room tried not to smile, avoiding eye contact with the women, but some actually smirked.

A man unable to control his curiosity, blurted out the question everyone wanted to ask, "Why is the male brain so much more?"

The doctor smiled at the childish innocence and explained to the entire group, "It's just standard pricing procedure. We have to mark down the price of the female brains, because they've actually been used."

    It's time for Cooking Reality and on Hell's Kitchen we've got Family night and Chef Ramsey mad at one contender for no discernible reason.

    In Top Chef-it's yellow, turned-on asparagus and a Polish sausage dish with no polish sausage.

    A review of the episodes aired on this cooking show the week of 4/25/08.

    Couple of big crimes recently as well as resolutions to some ongoing crimes.

    There is a verdict on the Bell shooting and there were no riots. A bank teller pregnant with twins was shot in the stomach but she and her babies are fine. The subway pervert has a twin brother who is also a pervert, updates on the anthrax case, and this past weekend a boy killed his entire family, including his 14-year old brother who hid behind a clothes dryer to no avail.

    This post will go up right after the elimination for 4/30/08 is announced.

    The total will then be down to the TOP FOUR.

    The post will include a review for the Tuesday 4/29/08 performances and will have been written BEFORE the elimination round that my guesses, right or wrong, will be there for all the world to see.
