Girls on TV; Girls on Radio
Tonight has been a Girls, Girls, Girls kind of night…and by that I mean my television and radio consumption.
A nicely busy day at work ended at Jon’s with dinner, ice cream and lots of TV catching up. By lots I mean two episodes equaling a little over an hour. First up, the highly anticipated Nikita after the cliffhanger episode before the dreadful March hiatus.
SPOILER ALERT!
I’m starting this off with a spoiler, so beware. Let me begin by saying how glad I am that Nikita and Michael are now working together as a team! I see a lot of Tweets calling the duo “Mikita,” but I thought it was just a fantasy we all had about the two teaming up (with Alex and Owen) against Percy and the evil division. Who knew it was in the cards all along? Whenever I see Maggie Q and Shane West Tweet each other, I feel all “fan-girl” and wonder if the two are dating. They would make a cute couple! Just think: the beautiful Maggie Q with her slender legs and the handsome Shane West with his deep, raspy voice. Hot!
If you aren’t a Nikita fan already, get on it! It is absolutely my favourite show right now.
My boyfriend and I only recently starting watching United States of Tara. When the spring TV season began, he was ready to give Hank Moody and the gang from Californication a try. But after screening through a few segments of the season three premiere of United States of Tara before uploading it to one of my websites at work, I encouraged him to make it our new show since it looked quite witty and funny. Am I ever grateful we followed through with this. Toni Collette, who plays Tara—amongst other personalities since Tara suffers from dissociative identity disorder, is just hilarious. It is such a trip wondering when she will transition into one of her alternate selves and who that next alter would be.
Besides great acting, I should note the comedy-drama is created by Diablo Cody, who wrote the script for Juno, Jennifer’s Body, and partially wrote for Burlesque. She’s also working on the adaptation for Sweet Valley High too!
Last female hero of the night: Jessie J. I can’t get over her single Price Tag. This Brit has quite the pipes on her. I especially love the live in NYC version on VEVO. I must have a thing for female British singers…especially if they have dark hair and great style. Fringe bangs help the cause.
Let’s get inside my head: I guess deep down inside, I wish I were British and a singer. So my love for Jessie J, Lily Allen and etc. must be because I wish I were them. Make sense? Great.
Since I’m neither British nor a singer, it’s back to consuming lots of fantastic TV and great music!
