TV Bender

What’s on television tonight? Well, I’m sure we won’t have a recap of "American Idols’ Big Blunder," but there is plenty of shows to watch that’ll keep you entertained.

A new show called, "Farmer Wants a Wife" comes on tonight and it sounds somewhat interesting. It’s another reality show where you guessed it, a farmer gets to pick his wife. Only catch is he doesn’t seem to be wanting a farm girl, not when his ten hot beauties all happen to be from the city. Granted, I can see how funny this can get. I can’t wait to watch them muck the stalls or feed the pigs, or worse milk a cow. hehe. The first challenge of the night will be them trying to catch a chicken. I normally don’t watch these reality dating shows but I think I’ll watch this one tonight.

9p.m./ET on CW

Ugly Betty- It’s the first of the post-writers strike and Henry’s girlfriend (ex) shows up and makes things very uncomfortable between Henry and Betty. Can ya really blame her? Plus, Betty will turn 24 tonight, so this should be good. But I doubt her surprise is.

Wife Swap- Gillete and Turners will switch families just for a little while though. One family are carnies while the other is more of a richie type. ABC

Everyone laughed and cheered when they saw the comical secretary on “How I Met Your Mother” last night and why not, she was funny. In “How I Met Your Mother” Britney Spears plays Abby, a smitten secretary, that is in love with Ted, problem is he only has eyes for her boss. Does this mean we might be seeing more of the ever-so-calm Britney Spears more often?

Yesterday ABC put out a list of all the shows they were going to be renewing. Wondering if any of your favorite programs will be on the list? Or will they be cut?

SuperNanny- The one lady that can rule them all, even when you can’t. Watch this SuperNanny put together families that were once at each others throats.

Last week on Wildfire, Jr ditched his bride at the alter of course some how it’ll come down to being Chris’ fault. But before he called it off he had to go save Chris and Wildfire when Wildfire escaped the ranch.

Chris starts the show off by riding Wildfire against Flame and of course the two really put on a show. Pablo of course is angry and storms away, letting Chris see how he feels towards her. Keep in mind he was the one that originally brought her to the ranch and she hurt him bad. It’ll take a long while for him to let him back into his good graces again.

I’m not an Oprah Winfrey fan, but I must admit this Sunday’s episode has me interested. Oprah is planning on giving out wads of cash and one lucky winner will get $1 Million. The segment is actually called, “Oprah’s Big Give,” each participant is given a cause or a person. Those groups must get money for a certain cause, one might be someone needing a new house, another might be a school in need of something. In total there are like ten people, from there I’m guessing she’ll take them out one by one and eventually be down to only a two people.

Two companies are currently fighting over who will get Scrubs. ABC and NBC will fight tooth and nail to get this award winning tv show, which is understandable since it draws in thousands of viewers a week. NBC had been airing it but earlier this week it was announced that ABC is trying to negotiate 18 episodes with them. Could a breath of fresh air add more viewers, or would it lose the fans it currently has?

Today I HAD to watch “The View” and not because I felt like it either. First, as I’m flipping through my 11 month old son hears some catchy tunes and starts dancing away. The band is The Laurie Berkner Band and apparently before this Emily Osment from Hannah Montana (Hannah’s BFF) was on. I just knew I couldn’t change it, and just maybe I could get a new CD for him. Once the singers got off the stage it is announced that the Naked Brothers Band will be up next on The View. Which means my two oldest, that are home from school (President’s Day) heard.

As for the gift that Emily gave everyone in the audience, they got the Hannah Montana (one in a million) CD, the DS game and the Boxed set of Hannah Montana books. This is something my 7 year old would’ve flipped for. Laurie gave everyone a bag of her music, with I could have one for my little man.

Amanda has showed back up in town and since she’s been banned from seeing Kyle she has decided to run away and stay inside his bedroom, with the bathtub. He comes back to his room and tells her that he thinks she should go face her mom. She goes to sneak out his bedroom window but instead Kyle’s dad blocks the bath by stating that he is grounded and to leave the window shut. When they go to head to another window he’s blocked by him once again.

Amanda is spotted by Kyle’s sister and she tries helping her hide as well. Suddenly CPS shows up at the front door and it is all about Kyle. Carol Blue has complained about Kyle and CPS must look around the house and ask questions about Kyle. While they are talking Amanda is hidden in a closet and overhears them talking. Kyle’s mom is telling him, “Be careful, this woman can’t find out who you really are.” You can see Amanda is curious. This can only mean trouble for him.

The CPS lady wants to see the documents stating that Kyle is under their care. She is not happy that Kyle was found, taken put in care and then went straight home to her house and she was the one caring for him.

Can ya picture it, with just one touch of your finger you can instantly bring someone back from the dead? Who would you want to bring back? I can think of a few people, but I wonder if this power wouldn’t get to one’s head. Well just like any flower, including a little Daisy, it needs room to grow and sure enough that is what ABC is doing. ABC just added another year for this show, so to all you fans out there at least ya know it won’t be going away any time soon.

Since I haven’t done any recaps here is a very quick catch up. Ned knew at a young age that his touch could kill and/or bring someone back to life. Now 19 years later his big secret has been caught and he’s now teaming up with an investigator. Together the two of them will solve murders around town.
