CJ and Michael
Michael has returned. Something happened and he doesn't have a job with nasa anymore. But he receives a promotion and he's back at Fort wherever they are at! YAY!!!!! Emmaline is still acting a like a brat and pushing buttons.
Joan and Roland
Michael offered Joan a spot on his team. She would be able to stay home and be with her daughter. As much as she wants that, she doesn't not want to let her team down. She declines saying she'll deploy to Iraq.
Roland is helping this guy out by seeing patients. Roland knows he using him so he can write out prescriptions but Roland does feel like he's helping people.
Pamela
They moved into a bigger house on base. Sooo nice. Roxy and Trevor come over to celebrate.
Roxy and Trevor
Nothing much. Trevor wishes he could provide more for his family. Roxy assures him she's fine with how things are.
Jeremy Sherwood
He's saved by this dog. The dog really takes to him and follows Jeremy around. But he's told to get rid of the dog. So Jeremy gives the dog to a friend and the dog whines. awww... I'm thinking maybe he'll be a handler now...
Frank and Denise
So Frank is sent home to take care of his domestic (Denise) situation. Last week Denise dreamed about talking to Frank and he said they could work things out. When she really does talk to him, he tells her not to pick him up at the airport.
He comes home and right away asks if the rumor is true. Denise apologizes and says it was a mistake. She realizes she was wrong and she loves him. But yes, it is true. Franks says she shouldn't stay and that he'll talk to the lawyers in the morning to start things. Denise leaves.
Hot damn. Now, as much as I think this is what she gets, I think Frank still loves her. His pride is in the way. I really doubt they'll get a divorce. If they do, I'll be shocked. another thing that annoys me is Denise's attitude towards CJ. She's still made CJ didn't want to talk to her the night Michael left. CJ explains but Denise is still bent out of shape. I'm sorry, but I don't blame CJ for doing that to you when CJ when was having a crisis of her own.
Pushing Daisies, Burn Notice and Army Wives

Pushing Daisies
The final episode. Sigh... why did they have to cancel it.
So the last episode, they are celebrating Chuck's one year death anniversary. So Ned, Chick, Olive and Emerson go to the Aquadome.. or something. And guess what, Lily and Vivian are there too. While watching Lily and Vivian's rivals perform, a sharks eats one of the girls. It's totally fake but still... I was a little shocked.
The manager asks the Darling Mermaid Darlings (Lily and Vivian) to come out of retirement and perform with them. Also to travel with them to Europe. Once Chuck finds out she's not happy because then she won't be able to see aunts. Ned talks with Chuck and together they decided to tell the Aunt's the truth. The last minutes we see:
Lily ( I think.. the one without the eye patch) learns that Vivian slept with her fiancé and had Chuck. Ned and Chuck knock on their door leaving the aunts speechless.
Olive opens a restaurant dedicated to Mac and Cheese. She is also dating Randy. Penny, Ermerson's daughter, knocks on his door. With the popup book he wrote she found him.
There is also an awesome scene where the camera goes around the town, showing all the places the gang has been solving the murders.
And that my friends is that.
Burn Notice
Yay! Burn notice has started up again. The people who have burned Michael ask him to work for them. Michael says no can do. Fine upper management says, but you get no more protection from us. Turns out upper management has been keeping Michael's enemys at bay. Not so much anymore since Michael said no to their job offer. Yikes.
Then we have Fi. For his birthday, she gives him a bayonet. she tells him that someone told her that loving Michael was like doing battle in the trenches. So the bayonet is to arm himself. Wow. Go Fi.
While trying to dodge the cops, former enemies and trying to get back in upper management's good graces, he's also helping people out. Oh.. and there is a detective sniffing around. she's noticed that since Michael has been home there have been a few more explosions and what not going on. Nice.
Army Wives
I told myself I wouldn't watch anymore. But I did.
CJ, Michael and Emmaline- Emmaline was running away to get married to Logan. Trevor stopped them though. He told Logan how much deep doo doo Logan would be in for marrying the general's 16 year old daughter. He was be committing career suicide. So out the door Logan runs. Awww. CJ and Michael decide that CJ should stay behind with Emmaline. Michael will head over to Brussels. So now CJ needs to find a place to stay and is finding difficult.
The night Michael leaves, Denise shows up on CJ's door. CJ is in no mood to talk with Denise and shuts the door in her face. (I'll explain soon)
Roxy and Trevor- Roxy is just dealing with the bar. First she figures out Betty's "nephew" is really a con artist trying to get some fast cash. Then the IRS comes a calling asking for back taxes. Then a woman tells Roxy her bar sucks. That she should make the bar reflect what Roxy likes. Not what everyone likes. I see a remodeled bar coming.
Pam and Chase- Nothing much yet.
Roland and damn... forgot his wife's name. Joan!- Roland is feeling like he hasn't accomplished much when he finds some news about classmate in his alumni newsletter. He tells Pam that he's not some lovesick girl who fell in love with a soldier. "Hey neither was I! I had a career too," Pam tells him.
And Joan will still be deployed.
Denise and Frank- Denise does the nasty with mac. The hospital finds out and fires her. Cause in her contract it's written no such behavior is allowed. The person doing the firing says, "I served with your husband. What you did is deplorable." Ha ha Denise. You skank.
Then Mac tells her that he's going back to his ex girlfriend to work things out. HA HA Denise. I admit I laughed while Denise was crying. No one to blame but yourself. That's when Denise goes to CJ's house.
Or course everyone finds out about Denise's affair and they are avoiding her like the plague. Roxy, Pam, CJ, and Roland are not sure how to approach Denise. So Roland tries to feel Denise out. Which Denise is annoyed with. Don't blame her there. Yeah I understand they are disappointed with Denise but they are still her friends.
Frank ended up not sleeping with girl over in Iraq. He told her no, he's still married. I love you Frank. Franks learns about Denise's affair. He goes on this dangerous mission and there is trouble. Denise hears about it and is trying to find out what happened and if Frank is safe. Yes, we later learn he is safe.
So there is your Army Wives update.
Did anyone watch Hawthorne? I have it recorded but haven't watch it yet. Is it any good?
So last night was the season 2 finale. I almost didn't watch cause Army Wives has been getting on my nerves lately.
Trevor and Roxy- Trevor wants a baby. Roxy isn't feeling that idea. She keeps saying she's busy at Betty's. But then Betty's nephew comes waltzing in saying he wants the bar. At first it looks like he wants to be a partner but then he offers to buy out Roxy. Which the amount he offers is a joke. Then he threatens to take Roxy to court. As of right now, the nephew is a butthead.
At first Trevor is telling Roxy to take him up on the offer as a business partner. But after he tries to low ball her, you could tell he was proud of Roxy for ripping up the check (Nephew offered $30,000).
Michael and Claudia Joy- It sucks they are leaving. But Claudia Joy was right, sooner or later, someone would have to leave. I just didn't expect it to be them.
Then Emmalin runs away with Logan, which I find that hard to swallow. I don't believe Logan would jeopardize his military career like that. And I can't believe Emmalin would let him. What if he later resents her for it?
Joan and Roland- I knew as soon as Michael's replacement came and mentioned he was buddies with Evan, Joan's number was up. She knew it too. And the look on Evan's face when she was told she was being replaced was like, "Neener neener." Ugh. But then to send her to Iraq so soon? I don't like that at all. I really felt bad for Joan when she was crying holding her baby.
Pam and Chase- Ok, so Pam was being a little harsh on her radio show about military wives and how their careers come second. But Pam is somewhat right. You married a soldier. You knew your career would suffer for it. It sucks but what can you do? Again, Pam could have worded it differently though. And then Evan canceling her show and replacing with her with his wife? That's just wrong.
Denise and Frank- I no longer like Denise. How can she have these feelings for Getty, and then be all into Mac? If she had feelings for Getty, isn't it a little soon to see where her relationship with Mac could go? Also, I get she's separated and all. But it just seems she wanted an out so she could see other people. Wanting to change and do new things, I get. I understand she was frustrated with Frank who didn't want things to change. But it just seems she doesn't even want to try with her marriage.
Frank, I'm kind of disappointed in. I didn't expect him push that one chick away but he didn't have to hop into bed with her right away. Unless it's, "If Denise can have her fun, why can't I?"
Anyways those are my thoughts.
1) Claudia Joy better not be raped. Someone better walk in that door and save her. Or she better knock him the hell out. She's been through enough.
2) I understand why Roland told Joan about Trevor but I also understand why Roxy is upset at Roland for telling Joan.
3) I don't like what they are doing to Trevor's character at all.
4) Pam needs to tell Chase about her stalker. And she shouldn't be putting herself out there as bait.
5) Ha ha Denise. Frank up and left you. You wanted the separation and now you got. I get that you've changed and Frank does need to be open about it. But do you really expect Frank to not forget you almost fell in love with another man and that you kissed him. What would you have done? I don't blame Frank if he leaves your sorry ass.
6) Joan better be ok.
Those are my thoughts on last night's show.
The picture is from last week's episode. They haven't posted the new ones yet. Ok, I've been watching Army wives and so far nothing has happened that has made me want to review it. Until now.
What the hell is Denise's problem? Seriously. I want to slap the girl upside the head. Is this her midlife the crisis? The bike, the doctor? She was one of my favorite characters but no more.
I like Frank. I love Frank. I think he's a great alpha hero. And to know he's going to witness Denise kissing doctor guy's hand... Poor Frank. What is Frank gonna do? What is he gonna say?
Although I am glad doctor guy didn't leave. Because I don't want Denise all, "What might have been." That's not fair to any of them. I would like to see how this will be resolved. But I hate Denise. Hate her. She needs to make a grand gesture to have me forgive her.
The other thing: Roland and Joan. Nothing better happen to that baby. I really want to see Roland and Joan be happy with their baby girl.
Those are my main issues with the show right now. I think that guy CJ's daughter has a crush on has something to do with the drug problem.
Anyway those are my thoughts about last night's episode.
Nothing much happened this episode.
Claudia Joy is still having a hard time moving forward. Which is expected. I understand but she can't forget about the other people who love and need her.
Denise helps a patient who helps bring back what Denise was like before she became an army wife. Which is fine. But looking at the next week's previews if she cheats on her hot hubby I'll hate her for the rest of the show.
Roxy gets to talk to Trevor. Which was cool. Roxy has to deal with Betty being a butthead. Which... I get Betty is dying and she lost her bar. But Roxy took her in. She didn't have to. Betty should be thanking her lucky stars and stop her complaining. Then Betty is yelling at Roxy's kid which wasn't necessary. Sucks she couldn't have kids but still.
The cutest part of this episode was Ben asking and taking Claudia Joy out on a date. And then when the waitress brings the check, he's yelling out for his mom. TOO CUTE!
Rowena and I both watched Army Wives last night and here is what we had to say.
Izzy: Did you watch Army Wives?
Rowena: yes, I watched Army Wives...I really like this show, do you think Denise is really going to cheat on her husband? Oh gosh, I hope she doesn't because I really like her husband. He's sexy to me for an older guy. And dude, as skinny as Trevor is, I LOVE HIM! And I think that Chase is dorky hunky cute! He's the Special Ops guy? Dude...he's so like a Navy SEAL guy, LOVE IT! I'm seriously loving this Army business, makes me want to find me an Army husband, LOL.
Izzy: I don't think she will. She can't. Frank luvs her and she luvs frank. If they make her cheat, I'll be very upset.
Although...I like Roxy but dude. She needs to stop being all... annoying. lol. Like how she went and talked to the guy about keeping Betty on and last week when she went to Joan about where Trevor was. They would have not let her get away with that at all in the army. I mean... come on. Stop making her all dumb like that.
When Chase was telling Pam about he didn't know if she was dead or alive and he said, "Is this what she goes through?" I was like... aw....maybe now he'll start keeping in better contact with her.
Rowena: I know, me too! I am going to be super pissed if Denise goes through and cheats on Frank but they've already done the cheating storyline with Marilyn and then with Roland. Come on, don't go there again. Not with Denise and Frank, do you think if she does do it and Frank finds out, do you think he'll be like Jeremy and hit Denise? Dude...that would be interesting.
Roxy kind of gets on my nerves. She does a lot of stuff that drives me up the wall, I hated when she went to every frickin' person on the post to find out where Trevor was. And then when she's all whining about it to Pam and Denise like their husbands didn't get shipped off as well? But I guess, it's because it's her first time Trevor has ever deployed or whatever, maybe that's why? We'll just have to wait and see, I hope she's learned her lesson. When she gets all hoity toity with the hospital staff over Betty's stuff...I was like, who died and made you God over all the civilians? I just don't see any Army Wife going to all these top dawgs and demanding things the way that Roxy does. It makes her look so dumb.
I'm glad that Joan is going to keep the baby though, I'm glad she did it for Roland because I felt bad for Roland.
And I got all misty eyed when Chase and Pamela were finally talking about everything...and when Chase shut Pam up with her, "You don't know what I went through" ...*sigh* He's such a dream boat that Chase! So manly and so...YUMMY! I can't wait to see more between these two. I love that he's the Special Ops guy, it makes him so much more sexier...
Izzy: Yeah, Roxy just.. ugh she gets on my nerves sometimes. And there's another thing that bothered me. Frank and Trevor are deployed together right? How did Frank know about what happened with the bar and not Trevor? Maybe cause he's been moving around?
I can understand Roxy being freaked out. I do. But to go around asking everyone where he is was a little much for me. That and Joan just telling her. Cause I don't know if that would happen in real life ya know?
Yeah I thought for sure Joan was going through with the abortion but I"m glad she kept it too. I like how she looked all confused when.. what's Claudia Joy's hubby's name again... was all happy for her and talking about her maternity leave. ha ha.
Yeah... I'm glad Chase and Pam finally talked and yeah, i agree. It was sweet when he shut her up. I'm really hoping now when he deploys, he'll let her know he's ok now that he felt what Pam goes through.
What about Claudia Joy? I feel so bad for her. I can't imagine what she's going through.
Rowena: You know what? You're right...I totally forgot that they got deployed together. Frank and Trevor that is, so why is it that Frank knew about the bombing but not Trevor? Is it because Frank is at a command post and Trevor is in the thick of everything? Is that why? Weird. We're gonna have to watch and see what's up with that.
I can see her being freaked out but I don't see how they're letting her get away with all the questions she's asking, all the trouble she's stirring with all of her little crap sessions. I don't see it happening in real life either, it just doesn't make sense.
Mike, is that CJ's husband's name? I felt bad for their daughter when all they did was fight, like she wasn't grieving and needed them too. That was cute, how she made them face their problems and work them out. I liked that Denise could be there for CJ the way she was, with letting the daughter come and stay with her. I felt bad when CJ had that panic attack at the PX. Poor thing.
How sexy is Chase though? Even if he looks like a dork sometime with how high his pants are on his waist. But still, I love me some Chase!
Izzy: Maybe that's why Trevor doesn't know and Frank does.
Michael! Yes. i think that's his name. And yes, I'm glad Denise was there for Cj. For once CJ needed someone to take care of her. I liked that.
I think Chase is hot but Trevor and Frank are hotter to me. I don't know why. Frank just cause he's sooo manly man. lol.
Rowena: Last season, it was all about Trevor for me but this season, I'm loving all of them...and there's just something about Frank that I absolutely love. Maybe it's just how manly man he is, I just effing love him.
Izzy: I know. Frank has always been my favorite. Same reason you just mentioned. Just manly man but you know he adores his wife and would do anything for his family. Which is why Denise better not cheat on Frank.
So yesterday season 2 of Army Wives started. I was looking forward to this. Season 1 ended with Marilyn's husband walking into the Hump Bar with explosives strapped to himself.
The premiere of season 2 answered some questions, but left me with a lot of questions. It also tricked me.
If you haven't watched the episode and don't like spoilers, I suggest you stop now.
All right, the commercials said someone close dies. I thought it would be Betty, the owner of the Hump Bar. She's unconscious and not responding. She's bandaged up so I thought she's a goner and that Roxy would inherit the bar.
Roland is fine and moved back in with Joan. But now, where do they stand with their marriage? More importantly, what about the baby? Is Joan going to keep it or not? I know her military career is important to her.
Roxy is freaking out over Trevor's deployment. She hasn't heard from him. She's refusing to leave the house afraid she's going to miss his call. But... doesn't she have a cell phone and doesn't he have the number?
Nothing much going on with Pam and Denise. Denise is helping at the hospital. Pam is trying to soothe Roxy's fears about Trevor.
Then we have Claudia Joy and Amanda. Claudia Joy is helping Amanda get settled in Harvard. Now I was looking forward to Amanda and Jeremy's storyline. I was hoping we'd see them work things out, get back together and both families get over everything.
But then we see Amanda getting all teary eyed and then.. we have the flashbacks of Amanda receiving CPR, her father in the background crying, Amanda and Claudia Joy with no bruises and scars... and then Amanda walking towards the light. What the hell? Amanda gets offed? What about her love for Jeremy? So thoughts of Betty dying and Roxy inheriting the Hump Bar were wrong. Damn though, so did not see that coming.
I wanna know if Marilyn survived the blast or not. I wonder if she'll start being nicer now.
So this season looks interesting. We'll see what happens.
