Scene of the Week: What did the five fingers say to the face:



Big News of the Week: A Melancholy Happy Tails to Davy Jones: Even though it stopped airing new episodes longer a decade before I was even born, The Monkees remained must see television for kids of all ages for years after the group tried to get serious. The show was slapstick gold and even though the fictional musical group were just hired as actors, the songs were surprisingly great most notably the show’s theme song, I’m a Believer (written by a pre-fame Neil Diamond) and their biggest hit Daydream Believer sung by Davy Jones and those songs will live on.

Preview Picture of the Week:



Most Worthless Character on The Walking Dead This Week: Andrea
When Andrea and Lori had their post suicide attempt confrontation I just sat there debating with myself which character was most worthless and realized there are a lot of worthless characters on the show that should be eaten by zombies sooner than later and so I thought I would make it a weekly event. Please note that the award will only be eligible to characters that appear on screen that week.

Free Download of the Week: Well They’re Gone – The Dandy Warhol (Rolling Stone)

Deal of the Week: 100 Albums for $5 Each: This month you can get for only $5 albums by Dia Frampton, Guru, Kathleen Edwards, and Roxette.



New Album Release of the Week: Wrecking Ball - Bruce Springsteen

New DVD Release of the Week: Game of Thrones: The Complete First Season

Video of the Week: This really was not what I was expecting for a Veronica Mars reunion. Yep that is Ronnie, Dick, Piz, and Mercer (the rapist). But this is still marginally more entertaining than House of Lies.



Next Week Pick of the Week: The Lying Game, Monday at 9:00 on ABC Family: A show that started as a search for the twins mother seemed to sputter out in the second half of the season as they spent more time realizing just how evil Alec is. Although ever since she walked on screen it was apparent to everyone (except apparently the characters on the show) that AnnieRebecca was the twins birth mother. So I guess the big question as the first season comes to an end, will anyone on screen realize this (or that Ted is actually the biological father too) as she marries Alec.
