damn 7th heaven

Posted on by

OMG. It looks like Everwood was actually supposed to be picked up. The CW even made a website for it here. Seeing that makes the cancellation worse. It was *thisclose* to getting renewed.

At least I know it was 7th Heaven that killed my show. Dawn Ostroff herself confirms this here in an interview with TV Guide’s Michael Ausiello. I still don’t quite get it, though. I mean, couldn’t 7th Heaven’s finale have drawn in such high ratings simply *because* it was a SERIES finale? I know I’ve tuned in for series finales to shows I’ve long since stopped watching only because I want to see how it all ends.

Sorry for all the posts on this subject, LOL. I have to stop.

Ok… in some funny news, if you’re a Grey’s Anatomy fan, you have to watch this video from the Upfronts. Burke, The Chief and McDreamy! In the shower! That’s pretty awesome. 😀 Credit goes to TI or Repro Images for sharing the video.

Anyway, I’m taking the day off tomorrow so Rob and I can drive down to Southern CA to visit the family. I won’t be around until Sunday so I hope everyone has a great weekend! 🙂

it’s official

I was living in the land of denial until today but I can’t anymore… It’s official. Everwood has been cancelled. Damn CW.

*sob* What a horrible way to start my Thursday morning.

Some early news about pickups and cancellations on The CW. *sigh* DAMN IT.

Anyway, some comments on the NBC and ABC upfronts…

NBC
I knew NBC was doing horrible but I didn’t realize HOW horrible. OMG, they have A TON of new shows next season. Sadly, the only new show I have any interest in watching is Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. And that’s pretty much because of Matthew Perry (YAY, I’m so excited he’s back on TV!) and Bradley Whitford. I think they’ll make a great team. Plus, it’s an Aaron Sorkin show. He never fails with the dialogue.

Ok, I take it back. I *may* also be interested in checking out Heroes because I just saw Greg Grunberg’s name on the cast list. Although the show’s premise sounds borderline cheesy… “Ordinary people discover they have extraordinary powers.” This show could go either way.

I can’t believe that The Apprentice was renewed. I mean, seriously?! NBC must really be hurting. It’s had horrible ratings and it’s gotten worse each season it’s been on the air. I’m glad about Las Vegas, though. It’s a terrible show (who cares about Danny and Delinda? Not me) but I need my Josh Duhamel fix. YUM.

ABC
It’s no surprise that Desperate Housewives, Lost and Grey’s Anatomy were renewed. I’m REALLY surprised that What About Brian was renewed. I never made it past the first episode.

It’s sad not to see Alias listed. *sob*

I think I’m going to check out —
Day Break – Sounds like a mix of shows that have all been done before… a detective is accused of killing an Asst. DA and he will keep reliving the same day until he figures out who is framing him. But you know, this is different. Cause it’s Taye Diggs. 😛

Six Degrees – This show intrigues me because it’s another JJ Abrams-produced show.

But of course, once the promos start airing and the Entertainment Weekly Fall TV Preview issue comes out, everything could change and I’ll watch none of the shows I thought I would.

Off to check out the CBS schedule…

OMG. Why does the CW upfront have to be on Thursday?!? Don’t they know I am WAITING to hear about my beloved Everwood? It’s hard knowing that the decision has been made but I still have to wait. ARGH.

Damn. I just read The Ausiello Report and he’s not too hopeful.

🙁

TV character responses

So this TV character “Favorite Moments” meme was MUCH harder than I anticipated. I have the absolute worst memory and I probably have more favorite moments… but I did my best!

EVERWOOD
Ephram
1. Amy: I thought you’d be in New York already.
Ephram: I think I’m gonna skip New York this year. I mean, it’s the worst time to go anyway.
Amy: Really? I didn’t know that.
Ephram: Yeah, it’s super humid. Maybe for Christmas.
Amy: Yeah, it’d probably be nice to be home for the holidays.
Ephram: Yeah, maybe, but…
Amy: But what?
Ephram: I am home.
— Episode 1.23: Home
Awww. Happy Ephram rules.

2. Ephram (to Madison): I’m going to my car, when I turn around, you’ll be inside and that will be that.
— Episode 2.18: Last Looks
I’ve always thought this was a perfect break-up scene. Sad yet hopeful at the same. And Ephram’s face… he made me sad right along with him.

3. Ephram: Amy? I still love you.
— Episode 4.09: Getting to Know You
This broke my heart. Ephram found the courage to open his heart to Amy and it was beautiful.

Bright
1. [Amy and Colin are announced as Homecoming Couple but Colin is nowhere to be found. Bright takes Amy’s hand.]
Amy: What are you doing?
Bright: Standing in.
Amy: I can’t go up there, Bright. Not without Colin.
Bright: It’s OK. We’ll do this together.
— Episode 1.14: Colin the Second
One of my favorite Everwood scenes. It just captures who Bright is as a character.

2. When Bright gave up sex with Gemma to rescue Dr. Abbott who is asleep on a ski lift. He mutters to himself, “If I die tonight and don’t go to heaven, I’m gonna be so pissed.”
— Episode 1.15: Snow Job
Bwah! Bright rocks.

3. Bright renting the Promebago.
— Episode 2.20: Do Or Die.
No other reason than it’s classic Bright.

vm s2 finale

Just finished watching the Veronica Mars season finale. I was looking forward to it ALL DAY and I gotta admit that I was a little disappointed. The resolution to the season just seemed so rushed. Oh well. I’ll post more thoughts once I get the chance to watch it again. Maybe this weekend.

Anyway, keep naming characters for the meme in the previous entry! I’ll post my answers tomorrow. 😀

OMG. Prison Break stresses me out.

Saw this meme over on LJ and it looks like fun…

Name a character from one of my fandoms, and I will tell you my top 3 moments or scenes (or at least 3 of my favorites) of them.

I’m limiting the fandom options to:
Dawson’s Creek
Everwood
One Tree Hill
Veronica Mars
The OC
(These are all my fun shippy shows so it’ll be easier for me to remember the episodes).

OKAY… GO!

weekend

Oh man, I had a busy (but good!) weekend. Sometimes I feel like I need a weekend from my weekend!

On Friday I learned that you should not attempt to buy guacamole on Cinco de Mayo. Rob and I were going to a friend’s for dinner (he was making carnitas, grilled shrimp, watermelon margaritas and agua fresca — YUM!) and I was in charge of bringing guacamole. OF COURSE I thought I could pick it up right before we headed over but we hit 2 grocery stores and couldn’t find a single package of guacamole. How was I supposed to know that guacamole would be sold out?!? HEH.

On Saturday morning, I headed over to Bliss Spa for a facial (Rob’s treat!). Mmmm. I also figured I should get a brow wax since I’ve never had one before and wanted to see if it would make a difference. OMG. I can’t handle the pain. I am SUCH a wimp. I liked the results (made my eyes less “droopy” looking) but… EEEKK. I don’t know if I can do that again.

Then today, Rob and I had a wedding to attend. Is it just me or is it a little strange to hold a wedding on a Sunday and at 5:00pm at that?! Maybe if it’s a long weekend or something… but people have work the next day! Well whatever, it was a great event. The ceremony and the reception were at the Mitchell Katz Winery in Pleasanton, which was so pretty. Acres and acres of grapevines surrounded the event center and the roses in the gardens were so bright and colorful. I’m such a sap that as the bridal party walked down the aisle, I started tearing up. I can’t help it! I love weddings.

I have got to be the worst Jonathan Rhys-Meyers fan. I had NO IDEA he was in MI:3!!! Now I MUST see it this weekend. JRM on the big screen… GUH.
