Quote of the Week: Did you ever for one second think if I wanted to see you. What do you want to hear: That you were a good dad? The despite everything it is okay. What do you want me to say? Look, just write it down, just write it down and I will say it just as long as you promise that I will never have to see you again. (Dana Brody, Homeland)
Song of the Week: How I Met Your Mother Theme (stupid rhyming episode edition)
Homeland: I cannot believe they are trying to redeem Brody. Do they really think if he pulls this off, the American public will go, “oh we forgive you now?” He will likely be welcomed like he was by his daughter. And is anyone going to finally figure out he killed the Vice President? He was there when it happen. How can no one put two and two together?
The Walking Dead: Well that did not take long for The Governor to replace Brian. And all it took was Ramirez to suggest they share power. He is so completely back, he even recreated his fishbowl of walker heads at the bottom of the lake. I have a suspicion that he was the one who double back and killed the people of that camp. Now that the two episode set up is done, we will actually get to see him confront the prison next week.

Masters of Sex: Lester the videographer is quickly becoming my favorite character on the show. Sadly it looks like he is being replaced as the cameraman.
The Blacklist: I really wished the show gave us fair warning this was a two partner. They kill Red’s bodyguard, cut to commercial, and then come back with scenes to next week. What!?! With Lizzie captured, I wonder if Red will finally admit she is her daughter (even though everyone watching has already figured that out) as a bargaining chip when the big bad threatens to kill her.

Survivor: Blood vs. Water: Last week’s promo suggested that there would be a newbie alliance which meant something would go horribly wrong this week. At the time I just assumed Tyson would get wind and play his Idol. Okay, that actually ended up happening, but what I did not see coming was Ciera would be the one to turn on the newbies. And then she almost got voted out for her truthfulness. Last week I thought Ciera could win, but turning on Colton and Hayden like that could really hurt her with them on the jury. Had she voted out Tyson instead, she could blame the boys, now everyone knows that she is the one that got Colton voted out. It also does not help that her mother openly helped Tina which could hurt Ciera with Vytas and maybe even Aras. Not that I really cares who wins just as long as one entertaining person makes it to the season finale.

Next Week Pick of the Week: The Sound of Music Live, Thursday at 8:00 on NBC: Last season NBC finally crawled out of the cellar but things were not that rosy over in Peacock land because it was pretty much buoyed by football and The Voice so over the summer it announced they would throw a few more strands of spaghetti at the wall this season like a bunch of miniseries (granted the planned Hillary Clinton has already been canceled). Another even they hoped would bolster their prospects is a live production of The Sound of Music headlined by Carrie Underwood. It is surprising it took so long for the network to schedule a live event considering Saturday Night Live, even on at a late time on the weekend, sometimes is the most watched show on NBC for the week when The Voice is on hiatus. There have been a few sitcoms that went live and ER did an episode once, but this is the first time in a very long time that there will be a three hour scripted live event. And with some many kids involved, something is bound to go wrong. It may actually be more entertaining if they did. Unless of course someone comes down with a Jimmy Fallon type bout of the giggles.
