1. Oh Big Mike, you are so right about Black Friday. No joke.
2. "Bryce is alive." Probably the last three words Chuck ever wanted to hear.
3. I love Casey so much. Just thought I'd throw that out there, no specific moment.
4. Bryce is kind of hot.
5. "I'd like to come out now please." Chuck was in there for like thirty seconds.
6. They're talking to each other in Klingon. That is so hilarious. Such a ridiculous moment in the middle of such a serious situation.
7. "THEY saved you. Did they. Could you be any more cryptic?"
8. I would kill myself if I had to work the floor of a retail store on Black Friday. That would be absolute hell.
9. Jeff: "Pineapples are fun. My dad used to throw them at me." ...WHAT?
10. When Chuck walked in and saw Casey standing there in a suit holding a glass of wine... that's so funny.
11. Chuck: "Just remember it's not my fault." I feel bad for Ellie already. Ana thinks that Ellie and Morgan used to be a thing.
12. Chuck: "Casey and Sarah are right inside, one girlish scream from me and they go into full combat mode."
13. Chuck: "I'm thankful that Bryce Larkin is dead and not currently in my bedroom making out with my new girlfriend." Morgan: "Wow, that was really dark... and specific."
14. The best part about this show is the dialogue. It's great.
15. Wait, Casey lives next door to Chuck? Why didn't I know that?
16. Whoa, Casey just shot Bryce. And Chuck fainted.
17. Of course Bryce was wearing a bullet proof jacket.
18. That's what it's like - the people banging on the door and getting ready to plow everyone over to get inside... yeah. That's pretty realistic.
19. You can tell that the people making this show have a lot of fun doing it.
20. HOLY CRAP! Bryce got hit by a car! That scared me a lot!
21. Okay the pineapple evacuation thing is totally awesome. What a perfect way to fix things when some scary assassin guys are about to kill you in an electronics store on Black Friday.
22. I love that Casey has a bunch of guns hidden in the table in the home theater room. Just in case some scary assassin guys come to kill you.
23. Yay Chuck was wearing a bullet proof jacket.
24. Of course Sarah's going to pick Chuck. I would. Even though Bryce is pretty hot.
1. Katie: "Are you gonna be home tonight?" Dan: "You know better than to ask that... let's just say I have nothing planned." Ha.
2. Okay, that guy is seriously going to give me nightmares. The convict one that came into Dan's house and shot him. He is absolutely terrifying and the exact kind of person that haunts my dreams. I'm not even kidding.
3. NBC, why are you showing an ad for Journeyman WHILE I'M WATCHING JOURNEYMAN.
4. This stupid player was working fine when I watched Heroes earlier... why is it getting all skippy on me now. I am seriously annoyed.
5. HAHAHA! When they found Dan's iPhone... "It's a... calculator."
6. Hmm! So that "FBI agent" isn't really an FBI agent. He just wants to find out about Dan's time travelling. He's a bad guy. Yay underlying conflict.
7. I thought, "How's he going to break down the door with his arm in a sling?" about two seconds before he tried to break down the door with his arm in a sling and hurt himself even more.
8. That convict guy is sure making himself look stupid to me, given that he's walking around an empty house talking to someone that isn't there.
9. Whatever's going on with that kid is messed up. He's eating a ketchup sandwich. That is gross.
10. OH MY GOSH!!! That kid is the scary convict guy! AHH! How is that possible! The kid is cute!
11. The creepiest thing about the convict guy is his hair. I had a nightmare recently about a guy that looked kind of like that who was hitting on me and stealing cats.
12. Oh, and now NBC froze Firefox completely. I'm going to try watching this on Internet Explorer now and see if that's any better. I'm not going to get my hopes up.
13. Okay, it's working a little bit better. Digression over.
14. Dan, do you not see that you are bleeding all over the floor? He looks like he's about to pass out actually.
15. Okay, yelling at the kid is not going to fix anything. Seriously. It's just going to make everything worse.
16. Oh, and now Dan just passed out. Yelling at the kid really took a lot out of him.
17. I'm really not sure what the "FBI" guy is getting at when he's talking to Jack about those pictures of Dan from the past.
18. OH. That "FBI" guy is hunting the time travelling people.
19. Do wounds really get infected that quickly?
20. Oh man, I'm sure Dan was thinking about killing that kid in the past when he was contemplating the scissors.
21. I was right. Dan: "I wanted to kill that kid." Thankfully he didn't, because he is a good guy.
22. Haha! They both just disappeared out of the ambulence.
23. HAHA! Jack just saw Livia! He is freaking out!
24. "Weirdest family ever." I like the editor guy. I wish I could remember his name right now.
25. Katie is thinking, "this convict guy has serious mommy issues."
26. And everything ends well. I'm just happy that Jack no longer thinks Dan is crazy. And the "FBI" guy is dead now. That just means that more people investigating the time travelling people are going to show up.

why is saving the world always your responsibility?

1. Sark is really funny. "Peter... why are you yelling. What is wrong with you. Stop that."
2. Victoria Pratt... sounds like that's the other lady in the picture. Oh, and there. Now Sark's going to point at her in the picture. Okay... now... and... THERE WE GO. I was right. Thanks Sark.
3. I like Sark's hair. It's all messed up in the back. It's cute. Aww.
4. Sorry.
5. Lyle must be really confused about all of this. Has anybody explained to him what the deal is with their moving and name changing and stuff?
6. "How was I supposed to know that Bennett teamed up with West the flying boy?" Ha Veronica. You're still psychotic but sometimes you are funny.
7. Oh, so it was Mohinder that brought Noah Bennett back to life.
8. Mohinder is kind of an idiot. I do agree that Mr. Bennett is really paranoid, but Mohinder is just blindly believing the Company and I think that's a big mistake.
9. OH YEAH... that one Monica girl. I remember her.
10. How does the virus get transferred? Nikki said it isn't contaigious so I don't get it.
11. "It's my backpack! It's gone!" Why is that relevant?
12. Maya is stupid. Can't she see how disturbing and creepy Sylar is?
13. Why is Sylar trying to help Maya? Just to get rid of Alejandro?
14. Sark, Peter doesn't need a gun to get the job done. Seriously.
15. "You are like a hamster making a nest." OH HIRO.
16. Hiro, I think you should listen to Ando. No more travelling back in time.
17. I'm not sure who is the good guy here. Sark (okay, fine, Adam) or Hiro's dad and the rest of the Company.
18. I think it's kind of cool to see the "young founders" of the Company.
19. Wait, why can't Peter get back to the future? When was that established? Did I miss something?
20. Maya, that's a real newspaper article you idiot. "I don't believe it!" Give me a break.
21. Isn't what Sylar said kind of true, about his mom dying? It was an accident right? I can barely remember that episode. It doesn't matter because Maya is still a horrible judge of character.
22. Why would Adam want to release the virus? Just because he's mean? Maybe he wants to start a new world order that is just made of people with powers or something. I hope not though. I want Adam to be a good guy.
23. "She was about to take your head off. There's no coming back from that one." I was right.
24. Whoa, so Alejandro speaks English now? Well, not anymore now that he's dead, but whatever.
25. Is Maya going to become a villain now? That would make her a lot more interesting.
26. I love Claire and West. I don't care what anybody else says.
27. WHY WOULD SOMEONE STEAL MICAH'S BACKPACK. This seems like a totally pointless storyline.
28. Am I supposed to like Mohinder? Because I go back and forth on that. I think he has genuine intentions but he's still not very good at the non-science part of his job.
29. That's a good hiding place, Micah. Behind the lamp post.
30. So Monica got kidnapped by a bunch of gangsters. And she's never seen a movie that'll show her a decent way to get out of that. Come on. She could have even watched an episode of Scrubs to learn that. You know, the one where Turk and Todd take on the paramedic ninjas.
31. Well Claire's certainly toughened up.
32. OHHHHH now they know that Sylar's alive.
33. Okay, how does Maya not see that breaking into Mohinder's house where his sort of daughter is sleeping is NOT the best way to go about getting help. Come on. It's called "make an appointment." How does Sylar have Mohinder's cell phone number anyway?
34. So Peter and Hiro are going to duke it out. I think that if it really came to that, Peter would win. But we'll see.
35. It seems like everybody wants to save the world but nobody approves of each other's methods. I just want to know who's the good guy and who's the bad guy (besides Sylar). I think things will start getting much more interesting now that Sylar is coming back into play.

yeah

So I got all caught up on Chuck, Heroes, and Journeyman. I didn't write anything about them though, because I was in a lazy mood and decided not to. Here's what I remember though.

Chuck.
1. I didn't like Lou so whatever. I'm glad it didn't work out with her and Chuck.
2. Bryce is alive after all? I guess I should have seen that coming.
3. I love Casey.

Heroes.
1. Of course Mr. Bennett wasn't going to stay dead. But when he came back, that was gross. I did not like watching his blown out eye fill in to his socket again. Yuck. I'm glad he and West are okay with each other now though.
2. Oh West. You're a little bit silly, but I still like you.
3. Mohinder is a great big jerkface.
4. Sark is still cute. I don't know if he's good or bad though. He wants to take down the Company, but he's also, like, killing a bunch of people. I'm impressed he managed to stay alive for 400 years though. I want to know what would happen if you cut his head off... would he just grow a new one? Just something to consider.
5. So Claire, Sark, and Peter are all going to live forever? Is that the idea I'm getting from the Sark thing? That's interesting. That's at least three characters that they can carry on for a long time on the show.
6. Going back to the HRG dying and coming back thing. Who did that for him? We had a big argument about this at dinner the other night. My dad thinks it's Bob, because he had Claire's blood. It could be him, but it could also be Adam, because he and Mr. Bennett both want to bring down the Company, so they're on the same side. So I think it could be either of them.
7. Oh and I'm glad they cleared up the whole "how did Nathan survive that, how did he not know Peter lived" thing that I was obsessing over. I am satisfied with their explanation.

Journeyman.
1. LIVIA IS FROM 1948!!!! That's awesome! I just think this show is so cool. It'll probably get cancelled but whatever. I love time travel.

oh yeah

Regarding Razor... I overheard the following conversation while leaving the theater and it pretty much sums it up:

Dad: So Andrew, what did you think, as a person who doesn't really watch sci-fi?
Andrew: It was frakkin' awesome.

"seen here in their natural habitat"

The writers all know that this strike is making the people who watch TV a bunch of sad pandas. But they're good people. Which is why they've given us these.

general info

Here's a comprehensive list of how many episodes are left of various TV shows before they start to be affected by the WGA strike.

Fortunately for my sister, Doctor Who will not be affected. (Because it's British.) Fortunately for Daniel, neither will South Park. (Because Matt and Trey aren't in the WGA.)
