The Hills Season Four Finale

December 22, 2008

hills_l1.jpgTonight is The Hills season finale airing at 10 pm EST. The Hills followed Lauren Conrad, the reality television star, from her move to LA to intern at Teen Vogue to her rise to the top in the fashion industry. Since her early days on Laguna Beach, Conrad has captured audiences’ attention. When The Hills first aired four seasons ago it became the guilty pleasure of many, hitting a soft spot with fans of all ages. Though the general demographic targets teens and women in their early twenties, many tune in weekly to watch MTV’s most popular reality television show.

A lot has transpired during the fourth season of The Hills. Friendships have been tested and loyalty has been broken. Heidi Montag has struggled with her relationship with Spencer Pratt. Audrina Patridge has struggled with her relationship with the ever-evasive Justin Bobby. Lauren Conrad continues to struggle with her rising fame, as both a reality television star and popular face on the LA party scene. Lo (Lauren Bosworth), also from the Laguna Beach series, also makes an appearance.

Though criticized as being a “fluff” series, The Hills has a loyal fan base. Amongst the money, power and privilege stands a cast of real people with genuine problems many can relate to. Only time will tell what will happen in seasons to come as the cast ages and grows more mature. But for now, many viewers anticipate tonight’s season finale.

The City

December 20, 2008

281x2112.jpgWhitney Port, the darling of hit Mtv reality television show “The Hills” is branching off without Lauren Conrad to star in her own television show “The City”. Following an internship with the world renowned Diane Von Furstenburg, Whitney the quintessential California girl, finds herself in New York City. With new challenges, friends and enemies, fans of “Laguna Beach” and “The Hills” are sitting on the edge of their seats for the premier of “The City” which airs December 29th.

The world was first introduced to Whitney in an early episode of The Hills. Port represented herself as the smart, savvy, fashion conscious friend and co-worker of Lauren Conrad. While working along side Conrad as an intern at Teen Vogue, Port proved to be one of the nice girls while drama seemed to swarm to other members of The Hills cast. Whitney has remained constant through the years, shying away from the spot light but giving sound advice and friendship when needed. Her likeability and business prowess proved her worthy of a spin off of her own.

The City will also introduce a new freshness to Mtv’s regular faces. Olivia the socialite, Erin the old friend, Samantha the new friend, Jay the musician and Adam the restaurant owner/model will undoubtedly bring excitement to the new show. It will be interesting to see if the changes in Whitney’s life will alter her seemingly down to earth personality. Will she succeed in The City? Or will she find herself back in the old California scene? With New York as the background and Whitney Port as the star, They City is sure to be a hit.

The Biggest Loser Finale: Michelle Won!!!!

December 17, 2008

I am SOOO happy Michelle won!!! She was one of the sweetest gals of the entire show and deserved it the most, in my opinion. It feels so good to see good people win. She was never mean like Vicky or Hebba and ridiculed others and was just plain nasty. She worked her butt off, literally and lost about 110 pounds!

Go, Michelle! If I ever met her I’d hug her and congratulate her. I hope next season is as great. I bet Vicky is crying she lost to Ed over a lb. Oh well, she played nasty so no one really wanted her to win anyway, right? I don’t think she had anyone in her corner.

When they said Michelle had to get over 100 to win, I absolutely knew she’d do it. And she did, by 10 lbs. How amazing is she? And her trainer was so estatic as if her kid graduated from college.

Tonight’s episode? A+ and a 1/2!!

My Wife and Kids

December 8, 2008

This is a show that is now in syndication. Occasionally I catch it on TV, like now on the WB on a Sunday night. Every time it makes me crack up! I’m not sure how this show got off the air as it is so funny. Maybe I’m wrong and new shows are still airing but I certainly don’t see them. The writers of the show know how to display a good family that is sort of quirky and can really make the audience laugh. Each of the characters has their own personality and adds to the flavor of the show. I’d like to be in that family and just have fun all the time. It’s so funny. I think it also airs sometimes on TBS. Now that I have some free time on my hands I think I’m going to TiVo a few episodes to watch while hanging out, lounging on the couch. The good thing is that I haven’t seen even a full season’s worth of shows so every time I do see one, it’s new.

Christmas Movies

December 6, 2008

Well, its that time of year to view all the fun Christmas movies on tv! Not all are great but many bring back fond memories of watching Christmas movies with the family. One that I watched today was “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”. Even though I have seen this movie (the one with Jim Carrey) many times, its still enjoyable to watch once a year. Of course I always watch it with family, as the kids like the fun Who’s and funny Grinch.

We have TiVo so we are taping a bunch of Christmas movies, including “Charlie Brown’s Christmas” and “Grandma Got Ran Over by a Reindeer”. I’ve never seen the latter of the two but since the song is so popular, thought I’d give the movie a try. Oh yeah, one good one I saw awhile back was about Santa’s daughter, played by Jenny McCarthy. It was cute and different, I got to admit that.

Other ones seen recently include Elf and the Polar Express. The Polar Express is always so strange. I look forward to watching lots more of these Christmas films throughout the season.

The Secret Millionare

December 5, 2008

I like this new show! I believe it airs on Fox. It’s a really inventive show that places Millionares under cover in very disadvantaged neighborhoods. They choose to go undercover because they want to see what the life is like and want to eventually give $100,000 or more of their money away to the townspeople. They must live in that neighborhood and live off welfare payments of $107/week. (However their “rent” is already paid, so all they really have to buy is food and gas. Plus, they don’t take their kids with them so $107 isn’t that bad for food for two.)

Well, its really cool how they get to know the people and then at the end of the show reveal who they really are. At first the people are hurt that these people lied to their faces. You can see how they don’t appreciate being deceived. But then the millionares hand out big checks, sometimes in the amounts of $100,00 each to the people they met. If I were those people I’d be crying. HOW cool!

I hope a secret millionare visits me, lol.

Oprah

November 28, 2008

I Tivo, so I’m not sure when this episode aired, but I saw it today.

So, today on Oprah, Dr. Oz was on who talked about the healthiest places in the world! Number one was the Nicoya Penninsula in Costa Rica. I was so excited to see this. I lived in Costa Rica for a few months. At first I stayed in Guanacaste, followed by San José. It was so cool to be consuming the fruit right outside our windows. You could walk down the street and just pick a fruit and eat it. It was amazing.

That is one part they talked about on Oprah. The other was that Ticos (Costa Ricans) work for their food. They good real and fresh meals, which may involve cultivating and grinding it. The family on Oprah did not buy already prepared foods or anything with preservatives. I’m glad I was able to watch this episode.

Biggest Loser this week

November 26, 2008

I was screaming in delight when Michelle won biggest loser of the week! She lost TEN pounds, it was so amazing! I can’t believe it and I’m sooo happy for her! Amy went home and Heba stayed, but its not like we didn’t see it coming. Vicki is a, well I can’t say what she is. But if you’ve seen the show, you know exactly what type of personality this *woman* has. Amy was a nice girl but she should have botted Vicky when she had the chance. Now Vicky booted her off. Such is life. Poor girl, I don’t know why she trusted her.

But heck ya to Michelle and her mom that won the top places! I was SOOOOOOO proud of them! I hope either of them win. Oh, last week I was also screaming when Michelle and her mom teamed up in the water thing and Michelle said she’d buy her mom a purse. That was so great and I love how their relationship has repaired. They look so great and so did Amy!

Desperate Housewives

November 19, 2008

Here’s the latest update on the Desperate Housewives gang:

(I can’t remember all names so bear with me)

You know the twin boys? Well one was dating his friend’s mom and got her pregnant. The husband is abusive and nearly killed her until the boy’s mom came and rescued her.

The guy’s band played at the club and it set on fire. Why? The white haired guy did it to destroy evidence of the doctor he killed who found out his secret. How stupid was that doctor? Seriously!!

That crazy old lady is being even more psycho and trying to get Carlos’ family in her life. OMG that lady is a freak. She needs to meet the white haired guy.

Brie’s secrets almost got out but that didn’t happen.

Her best friend is dating Mike. The Terri’s character girl doesn’t know.

Speaking of, her daughter brought home a really older guy, eww and is dating him.

I guess that’s about it!

Vince of Entourage

November 17, 2008

The TV series for bachelor is here and entitle as Entourage. At first, I find the title as gay because the first thing that comes in my mind is the wedding entourage. But this TV series is unique. It is about the life of a famous actor with his friends living together. The gang is lead by Vince with his brother Johnny Drama who is also an actor, Vince’s manager “E” short for Eric and, Turtle. Their agent is Harry. Vince is his favorite client and friend so, he will do anything just to get Vince a good project. The biggest break of Vince is making the movie of Aquaman. This series shows the high and low point on the life of a movie actor. Because after doing Aquaman, Vince produce the movie of Medelyn(Spanish movie) which pulls his success to downfall. Conflicts and disagreements enfolds to the part when they did that movie. The recent series show how Vince struggle to pull himself up back again in the industry scene. This is a must see TV series.
