Ringer Series Premier

Ok, so I have been out for a while but I'm back and in full effect with the Fall 2011-12 season. I watched the series premier of Ringer tonight on the CW and these are my thoughts...

Series premier of Ringer on the CW was pretty good. Sarah Michelle Gellar plays a double role of main character Bridgette and her twin sister Siobhan (Shavonne). The show has a lot of mystery from the start and the characters seem interesting. 

Some of the backgrounds looked really fake. Also, the way her sister (Siobhan) disappeared was really bogus but that's about the worst for the first episode.

Seems like Bridgette ran from the trouble in her old life just to step into a shit load of trouble in her sisters life. I am looking forward to seeing what living Siobhan's life  has in store for Bridgette. 

It's got my attention, how bout yours? What did you think of the series opener? 

Wow! Hawthorne on TNT was the "Bomb"

OMG! This weeks episode of Hawthorne was soooooo good.

First off, my girl Lisa Raye was on the show as Miles' wife. She slapped the sh&# out of Camille because of her son. That was crazy, but you can't really blame her, I mean that was her son's life that Camille put in jeopardy.

If Camille wants to be playing grown up and taking care of somebody else's children then she should be more responsible than she was.

I know that Camile is a good girl and it's not like she gave the little boy peanuts on purpose, but come on Camille if you are going to try to take care of someone's children then take care of them. Right?



I can not freakin believe that Christina slept with Nick. Ok so that is bad enough... excuse me Mrs. newlywed. But then she did it outside in the backyard at his mom's house... Really? What in the world is wrong with you?

Where do we go from here? Do you guys think that Tom and Christina will get a divorce? How will Christina react to Camille's and Miles' love confessions?

Can't wait to see what happens next!

"Can Someone Hand Me a Tissue"

OMG! I just got around to watching the second season premier of Rookie Blue this weekend.It was a great premier, what happened made me cry and cry and cry some more.

The show is about these five rookie cops Andy, Traci, Gail, Chris, and Dov. They are now in there sophomore year as cops and still going through some crazy times.



On the season premier, Andy is talking to this college girl at a free concert where the rookies are doing crowd control and next thing you know the girl is shot in the head. Andy takes a shot to the upper abdomen, luckily she was wearing her vest.

Between Andy being shot and the toll it takes on her, the girl being such a good person and not even the actual target of the shooting, the pep talk that one of the veteran cops (Oliver) gives to Andy, the victims mother at the hospital, and Dov trying to convince the captain to make a way for the victims organs to be donated as the mom wishes... I could not stop the tears from flowing.

I know that these shows are not for real, but I think it is so awesome when you can watch a show and fall so in love with the characters that you are actually so touch by what they are going through that you have to keep pausing the DVR to wipe your eyes and blow your nose. Smile!



This is a great show and I am looking forward to what happens this season. I am wondering how Sam (Andy's previous training officer) is going to deal with his o'so obvious feelings for Andy. What will Traci do about her feelings for detective Barber now that she is back with her son's father. Also, what will come of Andy's boyfriend Luke's ex-girlfriend joining the 15.

Rookie Blue fans, have any ideas of what will go down this season? TV talk with me. Also, if any of you have not gotten into Rookie Blue yet I recommend checking it out.

So, what did your show make you do this week?

Made Me Say... "Yeah, I Can Dig It."

So I watched the series premier of Suits on USA yesterday. I was like, "Yeah. This is pretty cool."

I like the chemistry between the characters on this show. I also like the way Harvey (the big shot closer) has decided to take Mike (the smart azz know it all) under his wing and give him a chance even though it could ruin his life if someone found out that Mike is not actually a lawyer.

Although Harvey seems like he can be a bit of a pain in the azz sometimes, his annoyance level doesn't even come close to that of Louis' (the Harvey wanna be). Louis is a straight up a-hole.

I like that the women on the show are portrayed as being very smart and in charge. Jessica (the lawyer that really is in charge) seems very down to earth. Also, Rachel (the kickazz researcher) has some real fire in her and I like her confidence.

It seems like there might be a little something going on between Mike and his friend's girl but I guess we will just have to see what happens with that.

I think that this show will be pretty awesome. I watch a couple of lawyer shows and even though I have had more time with some of them, time to get to know the characters better, I still think that this will end up being one of my favorite legal comedy dramas.

So did any of you watch the premier? What did you think of it? Is this a show you are looking forward to getting into as much as me?

One of My Favorite Dramas of All Time

I have to admit that when Charmed first aired in 1998, I had no interest in magical dramas on TV. I was only fifteen and more worried about boys and cheerleading. However, when I first started watching Charmed in about 2002, I plunged deep into a whole new kind of love.


Charmed was a show that always had something going on. It was about three sisters, Piper (my fav), Phoebe , and Page. Well at least when I started watching it those were the three sisters. Before I started enjoying this show the oldest sister Prue had died. So, Piper, Phoebe, and Page were witches and they were awesome. There was always some demon or any other kind of evil creature one could think of, that they had to “vanquish”, this means kill in Charmed language.



You would think that a show that lasted from 1998 all the way until the explosive finale in 2006 would have gotten a bit boring with the same kind of things going on every week… bad demon tries to kill the Halliwell sisters or maybe some “innocent”, Halliwell sisters kick some serious demon butt. Yeah! But that never happened for me. Sure there were times when I thought that they could have spiced it up a bit more one week or another, but it was ask and you shall receive with this show. It never stayed slow for more than one week straight, and every show has some down time.

I know that nothing good lasts forever but that doesn’t stop me from wanting to cry every time I think about never getting to see another new episode of Charmed. This show was the epitome of what a good drama should be. There was the dynamic family connection with the sisters, their men, the children, grams, and tons of friends of the family. The show was full of action every week and always kept you wanting more.

I can only hope that someday soon there will be a spin-off of the show. My mom and I talk all the time about what it should/could be about. I want to know… did any of you ever watch Charmed? If so, and even if you didn’t, what would you like to see in a spin-off? How did you feel when the show went off the air? What do you think we Charmed lovers can do to bring a spin-off about? Let me know what you think.

Made Me... Mondays

Photo from mylifetime.com


So I watched the series premier of The Protector on Lifetime yesterday. The show is about a homicide detective who is recently divorced and taking care of her two sons, and her brother.

It seems like this will be a pretty good show. I like the way that the ladies are kicking butt in solving the cases and getting their work on. I like the relationship that Gloria (Walker) has with her boss.

So far I like the characters. It’s good to see Tisha Campbell-Martin back on TV again. I have seen the star of the show, Ally Walker, in a few things and I have liked her acting. I am looking forward to seeing where this show goes.

So, even though I did like the series premier of The Protector, something that the Gloria did in the show made me say... "What the ...!"

Ok, so I don't have any children so I may be stepping a bit out of bounds here (feel free to tell me so if you think so) when I say that Gloria should have done more than just hug her son Leo when she found out that he was the one who stole all the lawn ornaments from the neighborhood.

I understand that Leo is feeling upset because of the divorce and living in a new area but, I don't think that a hug is much of a punishment. She is a cop for heaven’s sake. I mean, I just think that she should have done something to let him know that what he did was wrong.

It is possible that Leo will be punished on the next episode. If that happens I will give them their props for taking care of it. However, if it does not I think that there is a big problem with letting a child (no matter how upset he is) get away with stealing without having to deal with some kind of consequence.

Once again, like I said earlier, I don't have any children. However, I have helped take care of enough children and been around enough parents to know that it is a bad idea to let something like that slide. So I was like "What the ..., if she don't whip his little butt or put him on punishment or something, he is going to think he can get away with anything.

So, how do you feel about it? Do you think that Gloria should have punished Leo, and if so how? Or, do you think she handled it the right way?

Made Me... Mondays

I watched the season premier of The Glades yesterday. The show was pretty good. Callie's husband is home from prison. Jim almost got blown up by the mafia. So much drama... loved it.

The season premier of the glades "made me... remember being a teenager". The show was about Jim solving the murder of this young woman. It came out in the show that she had a secret lover. They were able to find out who he was partly due to some number charts that she did when she was 15.

The girl was assigning numbers to vowels and using the chart to see if her boyfriend was her true love. I remember when I was a teenager and I did the same thing. Only, when I did it I assigned numbers to the entire names (mine and his) whoever he might have been at the time.

Its funny to think back to when I was a teen and how many times I thought that I was in love. If I only knew.

Its good to be able to look back at things that I did like that when I was younger and see how much I've grown. I'm glad that The Glades "made me rember".

What did your show make you do today?

Summer Schedule

(Picture from google images)

So, its summer and I have started to put together my summer shows schedule. I still have some tweaks that need to be made. With my DVR I can only record two shows at the same time on the same day. So, any days that I have conflicts in my recording schedule I have to find out which of the shows I can watch on Demand or on the internet. Then I record the other shows in that slot. My tentative summer schedule is below.

Since Dramalicious is about "my dramas", I may not talk about all of the shows on this schedule. But, I still invite you to ask any questions or make any comments you wish about any show you would like to talk about. I am open to check out any shows you think would be worth my time.

Introducing "Made Me... Mondays"

One of the reasons that I love watching T.V. so much is because the characters in my shows have the most wonderful ability to make me laugh, cry, get mad, think, remember, and so much more. While watching one of my shows one day, Life Unexpected (WB, cancelled) I was in tears, I mean balling, boo-hooing, crying so hard that when I got up to get tissue (during the commercials of course) my fiancé wanted to know "what's wrong, are you ok?". When I told him it was just one of my shows, he fully understood; he's used to it. Then, I was elated because I got to tell him why I was crying and all about what happened in my show.

One of the ways that I rate how much I like/love a T.V. show is by how much it makes me feel, or even think about things, beyond just what’s happening on the screen. I checked-out a brand new show tonight called "Single Ladies" on VH1. Since this show is new I don't know too much about it yet. According to the website for the show, ""Single Ladies" is a comedic drama about Val, Keisha, and April - three best friends with different philosophies on sex and relationships". There has only been one episode for this show that comes on Mondays at 9pm. So far I like what I see. This show made me laugh, but the thing that I liked most was that it made me appreciate what I have. I know that the type of drama that these ladies contend with is all too real. Some of the issues that they are dealing with I have had to deal with myself in the past. So, while watching the show I couldn't help but to be thankful for my relationship with my fiancé.

For me to be able to watch a show and appreciate it for not only the entertainment value, but also for what it appeals to within me, is a marvelous thing.

So, "Made Me... Mondays" will give us T.V. talkers the opportunity to praise one of our shows in particular that made us think about or feel something that we would like to share. I bet I am not the only T.V. junkie who is able to appreciate my shows for this reason. Tell me, what has your show made you do today?

Jumping For Joy

(Photo from google images)


This photo makes me think of happiness. Jumping for joy and being able to let everything go for a while. For me, this is what “my shows” represent. When I come home from a long day at work, or get done from hours of studying and I just want to get away and be happy for a while, I watch my TV shows. Whether it is trying to figure out who committed the crime on CSI, or laughing my head off at Bones, or even crying my eyes out about what is going on in any one of “my shows”; they allow me to be able to step away from the world.

When I look at my DVR and realize that I have the option to pick between many of my shows to help me relax and bring my day to a delightful end, I am overjoyed. My TV shows are a breath of fresh air for me when I need to just let go of what’s going on around me, and let my mind be consumed by something else.

The joy that I see in this picture is something that I believe that everyone in the world should be able to experience. It is true that what happens on TV shows is not real, and that to some people they are really unimportant in the big scheme of things. Yet for me, when I am able unwind and get away by watching my favorite shows, I experience joy and inside I feel like jumping for joy.

Summer Season Is Coming

(Picture from aetv.com)


So, I hate to say it, but since the fall season is over, I will not be talking much about my fall shows. Instead I will begin with my summer shows, the first of which will be The Glades. The new season starts Sunday June 5 on A&E. The Glades is about a detective, named Jim, that got in some trouble in Chicago and moved to "The Glades" thinking that he will be living the easy life as far as his job is concerened. However, he ends up working some pretty interesting murder cases. Life for Jim gets even more complicated when he starts to fall for a married women.

I like this show first and foremost because of the crime/drama suspense it has. These are my favorite of my favorite kind of shows. I am really into trying to figure out all the medical and criminal delimas that go down in these shows. I also like the chemistry between Jim and Callie(his married friend). I actually like all the charecters in the show, but this is only the second season so we will see how long that last.

I will continue to update my thoughts and feelings on this show once the show starts. Also, as my other summer shows start to roll around, I will start TV talking about them. Untill then...

About This Blog

Picture from fox.com



Why TV?
As a person who spends a lot (and I mean a lot) of my free time watching television, I have contemplated starting a blog about "my TV shows" for quite some time now. While I am obviously no expert on the topic (i.e. student and phlebotomist, not TV critic) I still have a lot to say.

I love being able to talk to people about what has happened on a particular show that I love, or what should have happened, and especially what could end up happening. I love telling people who don't know about any of "my shows" all the juicy details and hope that they will want to start watching so I can have yet another person to talk TV with.


Why do I consider myself a TV junkie?
Well, it’s really simple. Watching my TV shows is my favorite past time. I feel elated when I get to sit and spend time with the characters from my shows. Watching their stories, I fall in love with them. I talk to them like they can hear me (I don’t expect them to answer, I’m not crazy just hooked). I miss my TV friends when they are gone. I can’t wait until the next show so that I can get another dose. Enough said!


What are “my shows”?
Well there are many. I watch so many shows that I am sure if I try to list them all I will forget to add more than one or two of them to the list. Anyway, it doesn’t matter because Dramalicious is all about the Drama! And there are also lots and lots of “my dramas”.

When I say drama, I mean drama. Every kind of drama show that they have I watch. I watch medical dramas, crime dramas, comedy dramas, family dramas, sci-fi dramas, and drama dramas.


What is my favorite kind of drama?
It’s kind of hard to really break it down to my favorite kind of drama. If I absolutely had to choose a favorite kind it would be crime dramas. My absolute favorite crime drama is Bones. Bones is about a genius anthropologist, Dr. Temperance Brennan (nickname Bones), who works with the hot FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth. Bones and Booth solve murders with the help of Bones’ expert team of ‘squints’ (some really, really smart people).

I love the characters on this show. The chemistry between Booth and Bones is undeniable. Angela, Bones’ best friend is such a sweetheart. Everyone else also plays their part to make this an excellent show. The cases are interesting. There is also times where, like any good drama, you will laugh your butt off or cry your eyes out. I would definitely recommend it to anyone that likes crime dramas.

Besides Bones, other crime dramas I really like are NCIS, NCIS LA, all the CSIs (though New York is my favorite one ‘love Mac Taylor’), Criminal Minds, The Mentalist, and the list goes on and on and on.


How often will I post?
Since I am pretty busy with school and work, I rely heavily on my DVR. This means that I will probably not see each and every one of my shows on the day it airs. I am still working out the schedule at which I will put up new post. I am hoping to post at least four times a week.

So, here it goes, my attempt at broadening my group of TV talkers. I am very interested to hear what you might have to say.
