Revisiting the Hill Season 2

-

Season 2 came and went as I streamed it. One thing I am missing is hearing Natasha Beningfeld's Unwritten. I wonder why it was removed? We have come to the season where Heidi chooses Spencer over Lauren. We also get the aftermath of Lauren choosing Jason over going to Paris. The introduction of Brody Jenner as a potential love interest. So how did this season shake out for me. In a nutshell, it's about making bad choices and the consequences of those decisions.

My opinion of Heidi hasn't changed. She is one of those girls that doesn't have many female friends and is all about her man. She continues to do so little on the job; yet, gets a whole bunch of praise. I read that Heidi has said the job was fake. That she was pretending to work there, not actually work there. I did not like Spencer pressuring Heidi to move in with him. How long had they dated at this point? I wouldn't move in with a guy I didn't know better, let alone a guy threatening to break up with me if I didn't. 

We get to see more awesome BFF moments with Whitney and Lauren. They truly are the dynamic duo of this series. I admire Whitney for being dedicated at her job, and dressing fabulously to work everyday. The super intern Emily was intimidating, but you could see that she was really good at her job. I think a lot of that has to do with her New York pedigree. 

How do I feel about Brody and Lauren? They definitely have good friendship chemistry, although I've never been friends with a guy that I cuddled with. It's very obvious that Brody is not someone looking for a serious relationship, and I think that's why Lauren doesn't pursue a relationship with him. I know some people have a rule that their friends shouldn't date or kiss their ex, but does Brody really qualify as an ex? I did not understand the whole fight between Lauren and Jen over him.

Season 3 is next!

Implications of interracial couples on TV

-
I noticed an interesting trend the other day on two of the shows I watch on the CW 90210 and Privileged. Both shows feature an interracial couple, one is straight the other is gay. One of the partners is African-American while the other is white. What disturbed me until last Tuesday (Feb. 10, 2009) was that neither couple was ever shown kissing on the lips. The camera would capture the kiss from a angle where you would see the back of someone's head. I found this annoying, because I've never seen this done. You always see at least the lips touching especially with straight couples. This had several implications for me. Was the censorship of these couples part of because we had a Republican administration in office at that time? Or could it be part of an even more disturbing implication that interracial relationship are on par with gay relationships. That they are things that shouldn't be promoted and have to be watered down to the point where it seems more like a friendshi

Oh boy, them Dodgers!

-
I know how all you Dodgers fans must feel. We're all disappointed they didn't make it to the playoffs. The only consolation is that there's always next season. I have to give some props to a few of the players. First, gotta hand it to Russell Martin. Love watching him play. He does a little bit of everything. He can do home runs, steal, get people out, and make amazing plays like almost falling into the dugout head first to catch a ball. He deserves all the awards he's gotten. I look forward to seeing him next year. Although he's at the top of my list for players I want to meet in person. Doesn't hurt that he dazzles these eyes! Second, Juan Pierre is a must keep. There's been a lot of talk about the younger players this season, but I don't think people should count out the vets. Juan Pierre is another player that I feel is exciting to watch. He stole 61 bases this year, and he is one of the hardest players to strike-out. So you can guarantee he will hit

One Line Slams

-
Bored out of my mind with nothing new to watch on TV, I rented some movies. I've decided to created a section called one line slams. Basically I give a one line description of what I thought sucked about the movie. Pirates of the Carribean: World's End This movie made me feel like the world was ending because it seemed like the movie would never end. Live Free or Die Hard CGI action sequences can't live up to the real thing. Rush Hour 3 You better rush and return without watching if you want to save a couple hours of your time.
