What's playing in the media room - September 29th 2010

Bit a slow night for me last night, did some catching up. Watched Castle, much better episode then the premiere. Also watched Dexter and I totally hated it. I really hope the season picks up and gets much better.

Let's take a look at what we've got tonight.


The Middle - 8:00 - ABC Season 2 Episode 2

Episode Title: Homecoming

Frankie's dream of dressing up and walking Axl onto the football field with Mike at homecoming will finally come true as Axl makes the varsity football team; however, Sue's first cross country meet is the same day, and she and Mike need to decide where they should go. Meanwhile, Mike makes Brick rake the leaves in the yard.


Survivor: Nicaragua - 8:00 - CBS - Season 21 Episode 2

Episode Title: Glitter in the Eyes

A battle erupts over a clue to the hidden immunity idol; a fearless competitor makes a bold move to earn an upper hand. NaOnka continues to argue with her tribe mates.

I'd lose the challenge just to get rid of that woman, she's so negative and just brings down your tribe. 21 Seasons in and last weeks tribal was one of the craziest yet.


Undercovers - 8:00 - NBC - Season 1 Episode 2

Episode Title: Instructions

Steven and Samantha must rescue a scientist who is kidnapped by the security detail that was hired to protect her.

I really hope this gets much better, I wasn't blown away by this last week. Come on Abrams!

Hell’s Kitchen - 8:00 - Fox - Season 8 Episode3

Episode Title: Breakfast

The contestants must prepare a fast and delicious breakfast for 50 EMTs and learn how to prepare a ravioli dish from scratch.


America’s Next Top Model - 8:00 - The CW

Episode Title: Matthew Rolston

The contestants pose while riding a roller coaster; Matthew Rolston photographs the models underwater and serves as a guest judge.


Better With You - 8:30 - ABC - Season 1 Episode 2

Episode Title: Better With Firehouse

When they go house hunting, Casey’s unusual taste in homes concerns Mia; Vicky finds that recently retired Joel is getting on her nerves because he doesn’t know what to do with his newfound free time.

When I watched the pilot last week I found this show very boring and very predictable. Being in the middle of ABC's comedy line up might save it.


Modern Family - 9:00 - ABC - Season 2 Episode 2

Episode Title: The Kiss

When she finds out that Alex is interested in a boy, Claire becomes over-protective, while Haley tries to give her sister advice. Meanwhile, Gloria begins to cook more traditional Colombian food in honor of her late grandmother, which is received in jest by Jay, and Mitchell reveals his adversion to PDA.

This episode is one of the most hyped episodes of television last month. Fans wanted it and they've got it. "The Kiss" I hope this episode is better than last weeks as I wasn't blown away with it.


Law & Order: SVU - 9:00 - NBC - Season 12 Episode 3

Episode Title: Behave

Detectives Benson and Stabler find their hands tied when a victim(Jennifer Love Hewitt) of multiple rapes refuses the rape kit because of the terror of her circumstances. Benson is determined to help, and sets out to find another way, but her research reveals that there are thousands of untested rape kits across the nation. Appalled, she still presses forward with the investigation, finally unearthing a lead in Los Angeles that might see some peace for her victim.

One of my former loves is guesting this week. Still won't watch it.

Criminal Minds - 9:00 - CBS - Season 6 Episode 2

Episode Title: J.J.

J.J. tries to reunite a family with their missing daughter while the BAU team suffers a tragic loss.

It would appear that this is JJ's last episode as it was reported she was leaving the show during the offseason.


Hellcats - 9:00 - The CW - Season 1 Episode 4

Episode Title: Nobody Loves Me But My Mother

Lewis asks Marti out on a date, but she turns him down. Later, Alice and Lewis share a sweaty workout session after she convinces him she will stop taking drugs if he helps her get back in shape as a flier. Savannah takes Dan to meet her parents at their house for dinner, where a demand from Savannah's mother leads to an argument.

This show is actually better then I expected and I've been entertained every week so far. Go Hellcats!!


Cougar Town - 9:30 - ABC - Season 2 Episode 2

Episode Title: Let Yourself Go

Jules tries to spend some time with Travis before he leaves for college because she has trouble coping when he is set to leave. Meanwhile, Laurie teaches Bobby how to surf the internet, while Andy tries to deceive Ellie with a little help from Grayson.

Wasn't blown away with this either last week, usually I find it entertaining.


The Whole Truth - 10:00 - ABC - Season 1 Episode 2

Episode Title: Thicker Than Water

When the body of a wheelchair-user is found in New York Harbor, the man’s daughter is charged with his murder.

Aka Lawyer Show on Wednesday at 10 #1 Really enjoyed this show last week, I like the concept and I enjoyed how Tierney and Morrow played off each other.

Law & Order: Los Angeles - 10:00 - NBC - Season 1 Episode 1

Episode Title: Hollywood

Dets. Rex Winters (Skeet Ulrich) and Tomas “TJ” Jaruszalski (Corey Stoll) investigate robberies committed at the homes of young Hollywood stars, ending in a shocking crime executed at the residence of a young starlet and her stage mom in the debut of this procedural crime-drama series set in L.A.

Aka Lawyer Show on Wednesday at 10 #2 Seriously I'm interested to watch this one, love the glitz and glam of Los Angeles. Been there once and I can't wait to go back. I know big surprise that I loved L.A.


The Defenders - 10:00 - CBS - Season 1 Episode 2

Episode Title: Las Vegas vs. Reid

Nick defends a single mother who is accused of running down a runner while talking on her cell phone. Meanwhile, Pete tries to help a despondent man.

Aka Lawyer Show on Wednesday at 10 #3 I enjoyed this show last week way more then I thought I would. Let's see if it can keep it up. I really hope it can't because I want to hate it and I enjoyed The Whole Truth much more.


Terriers - 10:00 - FX Network - Season 1 Episode 3

Episode Title: Fustercluck

Hank and Britt return to the Lindus case—courtesy of the imprisoned Lindus (Christopher Cousins) himself: He hires them to break into one of his offices and steal $250,000 from the safe.

How could you not want to watch this just by the episode title? This gets better each week and I'm really starting to enjoy it.

Busy night indeed. For me I'm watching: Survivor, Undercovers, Modern Family, Cougar Town, Criminal Minds, Hellcats, The Whole Truth, The Defenders, Law and Order: LA and Terriers. Yikes.
