Scribbles about TV: First week of March 2015

Started out strong. Better Call Saul Marathonin with my mom. She falls asleep before most of the episodes... I have a hard time paying attention to some of the episodes... so we watched the first 3 episodes of it and tried to explain it to my sister who had little interest and doesn't like Breaking Bad.

Then I watched Secrets and Lies... which sucked. It really sucks its pretty bad. Its watchable, so I may continue watching it. Compared to The Slap its better but its still laughably awful and I think this isn't how crime investigations really work. Also I'm watching it now, the second episode is a little bit better than the pilot, but its still not good. I'm pretty sure the end is going to be the same as Gone Girl.

Ohhh and I half watched Once Upon a time. Ummm I don't think I watched the Winter Finale... I may not have watched the episode before that... I'm not sure. This is where Once looses me because I totally don't remember what happened and I feel like it isn't all that important because that villain is already dead or a good person again and everyone is happy or dead or something... but I still feel lost.  love Kristin Bauer Von Stratten though. She's a boss and a beautiful lady in general. I met her IRL... she's just radiant and amazing. Like you really cannot even tell how beautiful she looks in real life from how she looks on tv. She's gorgeous. And she was also the Man Hands Lady on Seinfeld, and I remember specifically looking at her hands and thinking that they were very dainty and beautiful. I forgot that was her when I met her, but still noticed her hands because they were really quite beautiful.

I watched a lot of the Parks and Rec episodes from all seasons pretty much. I watched something from Season 2 and then some episodes from last season and then some from season 3. Thats the amazing thing about this show I just want to watch them all all the time and I don't get sick. Such a good show. Love it.

I watched New Girl from last week and from this week I believe. Same with Mindy and Kroll Show. If I said I watched them last week, then I just watched the new episodes... I totally don't remember. They were pretty good though. I thought the blowout thing was funny on New Girl and Mindy was okay... not my favorite episode I guess. Idk I didn't really think it was laugh out loud funny or anything, but it was good.

Kroll show was good. I feel like I need to watch it again . I watched last weeks episode too and I liked the Pit Bull character. I was happy he did the Australian character from Comedy Bang Bang , I was sad that they didn't show any of his characters going to prison for 2 years.

I watched Seth Meyers and Jimmy Fallon this week. I watched some of The Daily Show and The Nightly Show... I will probably watch At Midnight too. They're good. I like Seth Meyers a lot.

Broad City! I watched it from last week and I will likely watch this weeks episode next. It was really good. Yes, this week had a good ep too! Cool! Lol.

I watched ABC's Wednesday night shows and their Thursday Shows. The Goldbergs and Blackish were funny. Greys was good. Scandal was really good, I'm glad they addressed Eric Garner, Michael Brown and Trayvon Martin in this episode, in a relatively objective way. You got to see the sides of everyone in the story and the struggle everyone was going through. American Crime is what I am watching currently and I really like it... I'm probably going to watch it again cause I'm missing stuff... but its good. Felicity Huffman is really good and so is Timothy Hutton and... yeah. I get Timothy Hutton and Ray Liota confused... for no reason at all. They aren't similar at all. I saw a movie with David Duchovney called Playing God that Timothy Hutton was in... and I guess I thought it would be better if Ray Liota was in it after seeing Goodfellas.

And I watched Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt which is amazing and I will have a full review on it in the near future.

I think that is everything. Here is a link for more detailed info about the three newer shows I watched this week, other than Kimmy Schmidt cause I wanted to give that a full review.So yeah!

Byeee!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
