Thanks, Alvin.

I can't believe the controversary over a baby switch storyline. Happens all the time on US soaps. LOL Has there never been a baby switch storyline on the UK soaps? I don't get it. Also, is there a youtube channel that is dedicated to this storyline? I love baby switch stories, so I want to see this.

Wow that was fast. So Lucy Allen got 1 year and now PM too. There's just no stability at all.

Britney Spears to release new single, 'Hold It Against Me,' next week Can't wait to hear to it! Love Dr. Luke and Max Martin. JP, has it been leaked yet?

Congrats on America moving forward even if it's at a slow pace! Shame on these Republicans who hate gays. And John McCain, STFU! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/12/18/john-mccain-dadt-repeal-_n_798726.html Thank God this guy never became President, with his backwards thinking.

Did Steph's funeral episode air yet?

I can't believe I'm liking Brittany/Artie this much. I think they're very sweet together (last week with the magic comb and this week with Brittany's wish to Santa). Episode 2.10: "A Very Glee Christmas" Brittany: Can I be honest? I don’t understand the difference between an elf and a slave. Santana (on Santa’s lap): Please tell me that is a roll of Certs in your pocket. Mike (on Santa’s lap): I want Chaning Tatum to stop being in stuff. Tina (on Santa’s lap): When does Asian Santa arrive? Brittany (on Santa’s lap): You’ve gotten really tan. Santa: That’s because at the North Pole there’s a hole in the ozone. Sue calling Emma, “Elmo.” Brittany: I’m bringing a gift to put under the tree for the homeless kids. It’s a doll house. At least their dolls won’t be homeless. Beiste: …….she put being husky to good use. Brittany: Was her name Ricki Lake? Brittany: I thought it was a Transformer. Episode 2.9: "Special Education" Puck: Buddha, Allah, Satan, help me! Puck: Look, after six hours in that port-a-john, Ozzie himself would’ve turned to God. I prayed. I promised him if he got me out of there, I’d start being nicer to other people. Then I realized there was no way I could do that so I changed it to just Jews.

Wow! Huge ratings for the finale! http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2010/12/06/walking-dead-finale-draws-6-million-viewers-3-0-adults-18-49-rating/74468 AMC’S THE Walking Dead IS THE MOST WATCHED DRAMA SERIES AMONG ADULTS 18-49 IN BASIC CABLE HISTORY SUNDAY FINALE ATTRACTS 4 MILLION ADULTS 18-49; GARNERS A 4.1 HH RATING WITH 6 MILLION TOTAL VIEWERS Can't wait for season 2!

Wow!!! She was so gorgeous back then.

Former ATWT script writer Leslie Nipkow talks a bit about her time at ATWT: http://www.bluetoad.com/publication/?i=53437 It's on pages 10-12, and then 60.

Episode 1.4: What an ending! Totally didn't expect that attack. Cute blonde Amy got killed off. Episode 1.5: This was a pretty emotional episode. Andrea saying goodbye to her sister before shooting her in the head. Then everyone leaving the guy who was biten behind. And the end with Rick pleading to the camera to let them in.

Finally caught up! Episode 2.8: "Furt" Loved the "Marry You" dancing/singing down the isle and "Just The Way You Are" performances. Those were fun. LMAO at Sue's track suit wedding gown. Sue’s "The things I am most passionate about:" Extreme Taxidermy, Tantric Yelling, Poking the Elderly with Hidden Pins... Brittany to Tina: When you guys fooled around, did he ever just lie there? Doris: Marsha, I bet people say you look man-ish. But you know something, I think it’s perfectly all right for a woman to be handsome. Doris: I mean when you were little the other mothers used to tell me you’d never find anybody but I said, ‘No, no, no,’ she’s a perfectly okay child, she’ll grow into her looks…..and you know what, I believe you still might. Episode 2.7: "The Substitute" "Umbrella" was one of the coolest performances ever. I've always been a fan of Gwyneth Paltrow and I thought she was good in her role. Rachel: Class, in Mr. Shuester’s absence, I’d like to go around and ask everyone what solos they’d like to hear me perform at sectionals. Brittany: I’m Mike Chang. Holly: Those aren’t your names. You know why I know that? Brittany: Your psychic? Sue: Nutrition is abysmal at this school. Do you know what this is? Mercedes: A toilet brush. Sue: It’s broccoli. When I showed this to Brittany earlier, she began to whimper thinking I cut down a small tree where a family of gummy bears lived. Holly: Her name was Cameo. She was like an attractive Biggie Smalls. Holly: I’m Holly Holliday. Terri: Are you a porn star or drag queen? Sue: You irritate me, William. You make the underflaps of my breast burn like when I used to rub them with poison sumac. Brittany: Mr. Schu taught me the second half of the alphabet. I stopped after M and N. I thought they sounded too similar and got frustrated. Holly: Guys, practice your bipolar rants, okay. See, history can be fun! Episode 2.6: "Never Been Kissed" Sue: Wait. This may be the opportunity I’ve been waiting for – a way to get Beiste out of this school and your Macaulay Culkin stunt double back in your arms. Puck: This is garbage. I’ve been doing my community service! Ms. Martin: When you wrote, ‘Hanging with a crip’ on your probation application, we thought you were going to do outreach with a local gang. Episode 2.5: "The Rocky Horror Glee Show" Kurt: So, what are you going to be for Halloween this year? Brittany: I’m going as a peanut allergy. Will: And I thought Kurt could be the role of Frank-N-Furter. Kurt: No. There is no way I’m playing a transvestite in high heels and fish nets and wearing lipstick. Santana: Why? Cause that look was last season? Sue: You know Halloween is fast approaching. The day when parents encourage little boys to dress like little girls and little girls like whores. And go door to door browbeating hardworking Americans into giving them free food. Well you know what western Ohio, we’ve lost the true meaning of Halloween - fear. Halloween is that magical day of the year when a child is told their grandmother is a demon who has been feeding them rat casserole with a crunch garnish of their own scabs. Children must know fear – without it they won’t know how to behave. They’ll try frenching grizzly bears or consider living in Florida. So moms, skip trick-or-treating this year and instead sit your little toddler down and explain that daddy’s a hungry zombie and before he went out to sharpen his pitch-fork, he whispered to mommy that you look delicious. Barry Jeffries: Good news is about information, but great news is about fear. For example, Tim, did you hear about that swarm of Africanized killer bees? Tim Stanwick: No. Wouldn’t it be awful to see an entire town overrun by killer bees? Barry Jeffries: I’m sorry, Tim, did you just say “an entire town overrun by killer bees?” Tim Stanwick: Well, I– Barry Jeffries: There’s your quote. Tim Stanwick: And you can replace killer bees with whatever you want. Terrorists! Barry Jeffries: Mexicans! Tim Stanwick: Mexican terrorists! Barry Jeffries: Ants! Tim Stanwick: Mexican terrorist ants! Sam: Also, Ms. Pillsbury, is there a way I could wear some gold board shorts or something. These are really short and I’m afraid I’m gonna show off some nuttage.

The show keeps getting better and better! I didn't expect the family reunion to happen so soon. Episode 1.2 reminded me a bit of "Dawn of the Dead" (which I have to see again!) because of the rooftop scenes. The last scene of 1.3 was really good - nice slow pan to reveal the decapitated hand and the bloody handcuff.

Thanks, Carl. Wow, wonder why they edited those scenes out because making it like she committed suicide taints her exit. Craig's not coming back for his sister's funeral? That sucks. Or is Guy Burnet busy doing something else?

Just watched the November 10th episode......Steph!! I can't believe she committed suicide in the fire. Anthony Quinlan was fantastic in this episode. And then the last scene when Gilly and Darren tell Frankie. What an emotional episode. When did Warren and Mandy come back? And why is Mandy evil now and how did Warren survive the fire (when he "died")?

Really enjoyed the premier episode! The last few minutes were intense - when the main character was under the tank and it seemed like there was no way out. Eric, the only part I thought that was too gory was when zombies were eating the horse and we saw all the guts coming out. LOL I hope Lennie James returns too. If not this season, then the next. I'm glad there's finally a TV show about zombies - I've always liked zombie movies.

Haven't seen the episode yet but it got huge ratings! http://www.deadline.com/2010/11/big-debut-for-walking-dead-on-amc/

Great article. Sue is a writer's dream. And I like how there's only 3 writers on the show and the rotation is always (well, after epsiode 1.8): Ian, Ryan, Brad.

I thought the episode wasn't that great. LOL It wasn't that funny (so few quotable lines) and I didn't know any of the songs. I do think Sam is a good addition (he has a great voice) to the show and I like him with Quinn. I like Asian/Other Asian's duet the best only because of Other Asian's dancing. Episode 2.4: "Duets" Brittany: He must be the dumbest person on this planet, and that’s coming from me. Brittany: Hi. So I just want you to know that I’m really into you. Artie: Okay. Sorry, I’m just a little confused – you’ve never made eye contact with me. Brittany: I know. For a while I thought you were a robot. Kurt: He’s on team gay. No straight boy does his hair to look like Linda Evangelista circa 1993. Kurt: I have 3 gifts: my voice, my ability to spot trends in men’s fashion and my ability to know when it comes from a bottle. Santana: How can you do a duet by yourself? That’s like vocal masturbation or something. Brittany carrying Artie to the bed was funny.

I'm glad you like them. I love typing them out because they're so funny. And like you, I like reading them later on.

I loved this episode too! Glee has been very good this season so far - 3 out of 3 that I liked. Kurt singing "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and the flashbacks was so sad. I haven't heard "One of Us" by Joan Osbourne in so long! Love that song. Need to download that. Episode 2.3: "Grilled Cheesus" Finn: Mr. Shue, I have something to say. Something happened to me and I can’t really get into it but it’s shaken me to my core. Puck: Oh my God, he’s coming out. Finn: Why yes. There is a man who sort of recently came into my life….and that man…is Jesus Christ. Puck: That’s way worse. Brittany: Whenever I pray, I fall asleep. Finn: You got a problem with Jesus? Puck: No, I got no problem with guy. I’m a total Jew-for-Jesus – he’s my number one Heb. Finn: What up, Grilled Cheesus. I need to ask you for something. I didn’t go to Sunday School so I don’t know if God works the same as a Genie and I only get three wishes. But here’s the thing, dating Rachel’s great but she’s kind of a prude and I’m sort of going crazy. Anyway, her boobs aren’t that great but they’re still girl boobs and I would really like to touch them. So Cheesus, considering that I dedicated a week of my mystical life to you, I hope you can see it in your heart to answer my prayers. Amen. Brittany: I did a book report on heart-attacks if you want to give it to the doctor. I got knocked down an entire letter grade because it was written in crayon. Brittany: Is God an evil dwarf? Figgens: Sue, children should be allowed to profess whatever faith they choose. Sue: At the B.E.T. Awards, but not at a public school. Rachel: Both of my dads were people’s slaves once. Sue: I need to go what’s going on with that Glee Club. Brittany, Jugs-the-Clown, go. Santana: Mostly everyone’s just very sad for Kurt but no one knows how to help. Brittany: I read on a card that heart attacks are just from loving too much. Tina: Last week we were too sexy, this week we’re too religious – we can’t win. Brittany: Now I know what Miley feels like.

I love Brittany and Britney so I really enjoyed the episode. Heather Morris is such a fantastic dancer - holy crap those dance moves in the "I'm a Slave 4 You" and "Me Against the Music." I didn't like Rachel/Lea's rendition of "Baby One More Time" because I felt her voice was very wrong for that song. Loved Artie's "Stronger." And yay for the show reaching new ratings high! "Jumping the shark" is so over-used now. People just say it whenever they dislike an episode. It was said for the Madonna episode, for the Lady Gaga episode, and of course the Britney episode. Episode 2.2: "Britney/Brittany" Will: Alright, who can tell me who Christopher Cross is? Brittany: He discovered America. Brittany: I don’t want to do Britney? Kurt: Why no Brintey, Brittany? Brittany: Because my name is also “Britney Spears.” Will: What? Mercedes: What the hell is she talking about? Brittany: My middle name is Susan, my last name is Pierce. That makes me Brittany S. Pierce.....Brittany S-Pierce. I’ve lived my entire life in Britney Spears’ shadow – I will never be as talented or famous. I hope you all respect that I want Glee Club to remain a place where I, Brittany S. Pierce, can escape the torment of Britney Spears. Emma’s Flyers: - “Wow! There’s a hair down there!” - “I Still breatfeed…..but how old IS too old?” - “Proper wiping: Easy as 1-2-3” Brittany: I don’t brush my teeth. I rinse my mouth out with soda after I eat. I was pretty sure Dr. Pepper was a dentist. Brittany: This room looks like the one on that spaceship where I got probed. Brittany: Please don’t pull out all my teeth. When I smile, I’ll look like an adult baby but with boobs. Brittany: Are you a cat? Santana: Hey dwarf. Anyone ever tell you that you dress like one of the bait girls on “To Catch A Predator.” Brittany: It’s Brittany….(pause)….bitch. Finn: I think that guy over just broke up with his girlfriend so that he could just stare at you. Brittany (feeling Jacob’s hair): It looks like a Jewish cloud. Sue: It’s a Britney Spears sex riot! Sue: I’m going to sue the pants off you, Will. I’m going to take your house, your car, your extensive collection of vest. I mean seriously, you wear more vests than the cast of Blossom. Brittany: Finn can fly?

I predicted if the match would be played on Sunday, Nadal would win in straight sets. But since it was delayed until Monday, I gave Novak one set......and I was right. I can't believe Roger lost when he had two match points against Novak. It was another disappointing Grand Slam - both finals weren't great. And there was no Nadal vs Federer.
