Halloween: Coming Soon

Halloween is my favorite holiday. I love scary movies especially on TV at 3:00 AM and during a storm. Everytime there is an unexplained noise in my apartment I turn off the lights and go to investigate, but nothing no monsters, no adventures through a mysterious portal only a damn mouse trying to crawl under the door.

But first regular TV.

South Park: Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow
Cartman and Stan break a damn and the Katrina jokes come flooding in. Nothing over the top and offensive except the constant Jew gold references. This tenth season opener was better then recent years but lost some of its punch.

Drawn Together: The One Wherein There's A Big Twist Part 2
After last seasons very offensive and sexual season these animated roommates took off in a helicopter that was about to crash. When we rejoin them they do crash in the style of Lost and lose two roommates.
Their new roommate is a Strawberry Shortcake Nazi and she is the least offensive thing in the episode. While all the dead characters come back Strawberry gets eaten.
This show is funnier then south Park and more offensive I love it. Everyone is back on this cartoon reality show and getting ready to disgust the masses.

Gilmore Girls: Welcome To the Doll House
Rory is still wondering and getting dumber by the second. While this episode is just a bridge for next week big birthday celebration it was still funny and smart, especially compared to the two previous shows I just reviewed.
The main plot in this episode was the Birkin, a Hermes bag that sells from $10,000 to $64,000( at a recent New York City auction of a black crocodile version). Everyone around Rory gets the meaning of the bag except for the twit herself. It's like an engagement ring.

Smallville: Aqua
Aquaman, AC, or Alan Ritchson whatever he calls himself makes an appearance trying to stop the further evilness of Lex.
One cool part was having Lois coming out the water like Pheobe Cates in her now famous Fastimes scene.
The other cool part was the little in joke at the end...
AC:"Maybe we should start a Junior Lifeguard Association or something."
Clark:"I don't think I'm ready for the JLA yet."
