Chuck vs the Honeymooners

Posted a lot later

The first thing i'm going to say in today's post is that the episode you just watched is better known as a showkiller. Yeah. And unless the writers can pull off a Law & Order (take a dead storyline and make it work... for a hundred more episodes and 50 spinoffs), this show has reached its apex, and is going to have a humpty-dumpty fall. Don't get me wrong- Chuck is my favorite show- it was this show that made me begin to actually follow TV. But i think we have learned from experience that TV shows don't last long once they finish their main cliff hangers.

The Ep opens with a shady looking man (yes, shady. the only long haired white haired genst i've ever seen were on America's Most Wanted and in Lord of the Rings)in a suit pulling a vicious looking knife from a sheath. He pushes a room service tray to a compartment where apparently, Chuck and Sarah have been having a very exciting time. And we see that for the next few days, they don't leave the room. And their troubles begin when they DO leave the room.; Chuck just HAS to flash on  a  Basque terrorist, and Sarah's ninja instincts puts her on the trail of the same Basque. '

What results are several scenes that just scream Mr & Mrs Smith- Sarah's drunk Texan belle act and Chuck's    climb over traincars (Polar Express, anyone?); then both of them somehow managing to cover up the fact they were running a covert op, and messing each other up... Ok, that metaphor didn't come out as smooth as i wanted but u get the point: Chuck and Sarah are now the post-house fight Mr & Ms. Smith.

What we have now is the show repeat itself: Casey and Morgan tied to the chair, Chuck and Sarah Kimbo-slicing their way through a room of ETA guerrilas; Chuck and Sarah crashing through a restaurant window on a moped, Morgan's babbling blowing the cover of some ETA (great name, btw. Very Jamesh Bond) posing as Interpol. Casey and Morgan- chair scene is definitely from Chuck vs the Undercover Lover; i guess casey must have been trying to remember "how to fight with an incompetent set of numbnuts strapped to you back":. Chuck & Sarah fighting while handcuffed in perfect sync is almost a mirror image of Sarah and Bryce in Chuck vs the Nemesis; The moped, well; we all know it was from Chuck vs the First Date, Casey's crown vic's grand entrance to that restaurant.

It seems that the show is going full circle; the only thing i wish for is that the ones that are "in the know" right now stay the only ones "in the know"

NCIS: Houston, we have a problem NOTE: Spoilerlike

Hi there, sorry i wasn't able to post; my internet was going wacko, so i just caught up on my TV. :(. Well, i;m just here to comment on all the buildup on the NCIS finale- the teasers, spoilers, and previews.

NOTE: SPOILERS!!! AHHH!!! YOUR EYES ARE BURNING UP!!! i hope not...

Here's what we have:

• Abby and McGee head down to Mexico, with Vance watching over their shoulders.
• Gibbs has stormed out of a polygraph exam 
• Michael Weatherly (plays Tony Dinozzo) has called the finale "Gibbs in Hell"
• It's not Tiva-centric
• Been called a game-changer, equated to S2 finale, "Twilight", where Kate takes a bullet between her eyes.
• One colleague dies, another is injured. :(

OK, here's my take on the matter:

It sounds bad, and probably is bad: Storm clouds are brewing overhead for the MCRT, and looks like Gibbs is the lightning pole this time... It's obvious that the canon buildup for the finale is starting with this tuesday's episode; Mexico is the place where Colonel Bell and M Allison Hart hangout, where Mike Franks stays, where Mr Alejandro Rivera's from, and most importantly, where Gibbs killed the scumball that murdered his wife and kid. Abby and McGee will uncover something that proves Gibbs killed the drug dealer, and try to hide it, but Vance, who's been keeping tabs on them, gets a hold of it; and in the Season finale; Gibbs is going arrested... but Gibbs' team is Gibb's team, and they just happen to have a ex Mossad assassin and a forensic scientist at their disposal and it ends maybe with

•  Vance dead by the wrath of the Gibblets, and Gibbs injured, (most probable outcome)
• Vance is killed by Colonel Bell and his goons,  Gibbs is on the run/ taken/ arrested, One of the team is injured.
• Vance goes after Gibbs, Team Gibbs finds that file, and blackmails Vance into standing down. (cold be combined with No.1)

I know, call me the prophet of doom, but this is my take, and as much as i don't want it to happen, it seems inevitable. i just got one thing to say: Gibbs is screwed.
