Scribbles About TV: NBC Fall Schedule

So here is the network I'm least excited about. All of my favorite shows used to be on NBC... now the only shows I've watched there ended or were cancelled and I don't think there were many new things that looked that good... so I'm concerned. I love NBC as a network, I think overall they've had some of the best tv series ever and I love their late night shows... I might start watching something out of loyalty to the network... but to be honest its not the first thing I'm worried about. Its not like I need any more shows to watch. Lol.

Monday 

8pm The Voice- I don't like reality tv shows and Gwen Stefani is on this show and whenever I listen to Gwen Stefani... something terrible happens. So she is banned from my life until after my sister's wedding. Lol. Sorry Gwen! This goes on until 10pm too! Crazy!

10pm Blindspot- This looked cool. Kind of reminded me of Momento or Lucy or something along those lines. I think this looks really good and I think it'll be a big hit. I think its up against something else that I like... and sometimes I don't love watching regular TV that late at night... so I may or may not check it out. Sometimes I don't pay that much attention to a show if I already watch other shows before it. This is on after Jane The Virgin... so yeah...

Tuesday 

8pm The Voice- I don't like reality tv and I don't like them having it two days in a row... its just too much.

9pm Chicago Med- My mom is excited about this one. She watches Chicago Fire and Chicago PD. I think those shows are pretty good too and I will probably catch an episode or two when my mom watches them. She usually misses them and re-watches them. My mom's Tuesdays are overwhelmed right now because of the NCIS's and The Muppets... so she may or may not watch this one too... but I think she will and it'll probably be good.

10pm Best Time Ever with Neil Patrick Harris- I don't really know what this is about... but I love some NPH even if the end of How I Met Your Mother made me hate the show as a whole even though I loved it once. I think thats on until November and then Chicago Fire returns.

Wednesday

8pm The Mysteries of Laura- I didn't think this show would last more than a season because the title is pretty bad... but the fact that it made it a second season makes me kind of want to check it out. Probably not terrible.

9pm Law and Order: SVU- There are 2 types of people in this world: People who LOVE  Law and Order and watch it all the time even if they've seen all the episodes all the time... and people who are just so sick of Law and Order that they can't even stand the theme song... which is pretty brilliant... anymore. I'm person #2 because my sister is #1. When she lived here she would watch Law and Order 24/7. It was bad. We can't really stand the show anymore... but it isn't a bad show. I see the appeal... but I've had enough. Still we are almost out of CSI's in the world... I feel like we need a Law and Order.I think it may get phased out soon and the new franchise on NBC will be the Chicago ones... but this is good.

10 pm Chicago PD- I've already talked about this... so yeah. Lol. The crossover episodes are a bit annoying though. My mom was watching one and it ended really abruptly and then the next episode didn't even talk about any of the stuff mentioned in the previous episode because the conclusion of that was on Chicago Fire... Really? lol.

Thursday 

8pm Heroes Reborn- I watched the first episode of Heroes when it was on... could not get into it. I thought it looked so good and then just didn't grab my interest. So I'm not going to watch it. My friend Tori probably will.

9pm The Blacklist-My parents really like this show. I think my sister watches it too. I like James Spader... he's kind of a weirdo but a fantastic actor and I'm sure he's amazing in this anti-hero type role. This is up against Scandal though... so...

10pm The Player- No Idea what this is... I'm about to watch a trailer. Something to do with gambling... This doesn't look cool to me. Idk what the plot is. I don't think setting things in Vegas or in a casino immediately makes something better the way that Hollywood thinks its going to. Meh. Might be good... not going to watch because its against How To Get Away With Murder.

Friday 

8pm Undateable- Its really sad that NBC had to move its comedies to Friday... They might stand a chance though because nothing else is really on from what I've seen and these are lead ins to Grimm... which is pretty popular and a reasonably good show. Chris D'elia and Ron Funchs are on this... they're really funny guys... but I've never had a desire to see this show. Although this season its all going to be filmed live... so thats cool. I think its Live episode got such high ratings and its probably easier to do a live show, that they just thought this would work for it.

9pm People Are Talking- I haven't heard anything about this show or The Player... and I'm pretty in the know about these things... there were only a few shows from other networks where I was like WTF! But yeah, I'll watch a trailer.  I have no faith in this one already. This might be the first show cancelled this season. First off on the trailer it says its called "Truth Be Told" and on the schedule it says People are Talking... so they changed the name before it even aired but after the advertising... bad sign. Its on Fridays... bad sign. The trailer made no sense and didn't tell me what the show was about, so I don't think it was a pilot... bad sign. The big joke was that they had a hot babysitter and they found out she does porn... not realistic... and also the way they presented it was just offensive to women in a way that makes all men look like pigs also. This show looks TERRIBLE! So yeah... definitely going to avoid that one like the plague... or at least like I avoided One Big Happy... which I watched.

Also People Are Talking and Truth Be Told are both awful and generic titles... I don't get it.

10 pm Grimm- This show is pretty good, but I haven't watched it since the pilot. Its a little like Supernatural or Buffy or something like that... good show. Not my favorite paranormal show, but its a really good one.

Saturdays are just Dateline all night followed by SNL 

Sunday is just football. 

That is everything! Hope you guys are enjoying TV Week!

Byeee!

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
