I think I love you.<\/p>\n<p>Some comments on the Monday shows&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><b>Kitchen Confidential<\/b><br \/>\nI liked this A LOT. It screamed &#8220;PILOT&#8221; but it has potential. Bradley Cooper rocked (naturally) and it&#8217;s nice to see that Nicholas Brendon and John Francis Daley (<i>Freaks and Geeks<\/i> forever!) can still bring the funny. But it seems I was right about Bonnie Sommerville. She got on my last nerve. I can totally see her character getting into a relationship with Jack too&#8230; ACK. I don&#8217;t know if I can handle her in a central storyline. Anyway, does anyone know why John Cho was dropped from the main cast? I thought he was so good!<\/p>\n<p><b>Las Vegas<\/b><br \/>\nI haven&#8217;t seen this show in *ages* and I&#8217;ve missed Josh Duhamel. I figured I could Tivo <i>Prison Break<\/i> for one night. I loved how Danny had to travel around Las Vegas rounding up all the old employees (plus Mike working as a valet in an ELF costume!). Too bad it took me a while to figure out *why* they all needed to be brought together in the first place (and also what the heck Lara Flynn Boyle was doing on the show). Now, I know Danny and Mary (ugh, I *still* don&#8217;t like her &#8212; her character does nothing!) are &#8220;meant to be&#8221; or whatever but I would really love to see him with Sam. I thought Josh Duhamel and Vanessa Marcil were *gorgeous* together in the scene where he picked her up (ahh, wishful thinking). I was sad to hear that Nessa is gone&#8230; they couldn&#8217;t have gotten rid of Delinda instead? *sigh* I really enjoy this show (it&#8217;s total mindless fluff) but I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ll be watching it regularly. It&#8217;s another one of those shows I&#8217;d rather follow on DVD.<\/p>\n<p>So the Emmys were pretty bad, huh? Each year I look forward to it and each year I&#8217;m disappointed. My commentary from the other night&#8217;s show&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nWow, the opening number SUCKED. So boring. The Black Eyed Peas and Earth Wind &#038; Fire seemed lifeless.<\/p>\n<p>Marcia Cross looked beautiful in her green dress. Such a great contrast to her red hair. Love her. But I&#8217;m beginning to hate all the <i>Desperate Housewives<\/i> jokes. It&#8217;s getting old.<\/p>\n<p>Emmy Idol?!? I can&#8217;t believe Donald Trump is singing on national television.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren Graham is freaking gorgeous.<\/p>\n<p>AWW. Kristen Bell. Her voice is TOO CUTE. But her <i>Fame<\/i> performance was way cheesy. And kinda embarassing.<\/p>\n<p>Does Gary Dourdan really sing? Huh. Whatever. I love him anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan Rhys-Meyers was nominated &#8212; how did I not know that? Wow, he looks amazing. YUM. It&#8217;s kinda sad how I&#8217;m not even interested in the show or the awards anymore. I&#8217;m all about the eye candy now.<\/p>\n<p>William Shatner singing the theme to <i>Star Trek<\/i>. WHY?!?<\/p>\n<p>I love Conan. I started to tune out and he reeled me back in.<\/p>\n<p>Felicity Huffman!!! I was really hoping it would be her or Marcia Cross. I&#8217;m so happy for her!<\/p>\n<p>James Spader and <i>Everybody Loves Raymond<\/i> AGAIN?!? I don&#8217;t understand.<\/p>\n<p>Yay for <i>Lost<\/i>! I didn&#8217;t really have favorites for any of the categories this year but I was hoping <i>Lost<\/i> would win for Best Drama just so I could see the pretty, pretty cast on stage.
