'Millionaire Matchmaker's' Worst Client Ever Has a Drink Thrown in His Face (VIDEO) (AOL TV)

Dec 29th 2010 11:40AM The best part was Matt's somewhat self-fulfilling prophecy at the beginning of the interview where he said he didn't want to end up like Mr. Burns in "The Simpsons" - basically as "a little old crone in the nursing home" as Patti so eloquently put it! This guy was the WORST ever! It made me ill to watch how poorly he treated EVERYONE! Poor little rich boy. And then to diss Patti in her own office, oh that was just ASKING for it! Loser!

Glenn Beck's Oprah-Like Giveaway Leaves Audience Unimpressed (VIDEO) (AOL TV)

Dec 16th 2010 11:01PM You sure do know how to twist and spin things to fit your view of how you WANT it to be. This show was actually really great and of course, quite humorous. Trust me, the audience members were a LOT more pleased with the gifts than this post makes it sound. Get over it please...

Five Reasons Why 'The Apprentice' Needs to Retire (AOL TV)

Dec 10th 2010 5:25PM Count me in the "pissed off" column. I recorded the show but due to Christmas parties, school functions, etc. I hadn't gotten to watch it yet. Most of the time TV Squad will at LEAST attempt to avoid such a blatent spoiler but geeeez... this one was pretty bad guys! At least put a neutral photo up and not do a reveal until after the link! I mean, the article header was fine but you put both the winner's photo AND a statement that they won right on the front page! Just keep reminding me why I hardly ever come here any more please...

Jeffrey Donovan to Direct 'Burn Notice' Prequel Movie Starring Sam Axe (AOL TV)

Dec 2nd 2010 10:54AM Holy Freaking Crap! I would love to see Sam Axe meet up with John Casey in this prequel! Talk about the perfect crossover! Burn Notice has just about the same rabid followers as Chuck and this makes perfect sense. Love the thought of it!

I also am a HUGE Bruce Campbell fan and while Adam Baldwin is still young enough to be able to pull off a flashback, Bruce "fits" the older version of Sam at this point in his career much better than he would the younger Sam. My suggestion is to cast Eddie McClintock in the role of Sam. McClintock's Pete Lattimer on Warehouse 13 always reminds me of a younger Bruce Campbell and he seems like a logical choice if one were to recast the role. Eddie would bring Bruce's humor and yes, the looks as well to the role and I love Pete on WH13. What do you think???

Bill O'Reilly Calls for the Execution of WikiLeakers (VIDEO) (AOL TV)

Dec 2nd 2010 10:35AM I think that most readers believe O'Reilly says that Wikileaks' founder Julian Assange should be executed when what he actually says is that the LEAKERS are guilty and should be pursued to the full extent of the law. Most of the press is trumping up what Wikileaks has done while very little is reported on the PFC who is accused of doing the leaking. Last I checked, execution is still one of the possible punishments for treason as is life in prison however I also believe that no one will be charged with that crime. Instead, it is more likely that both the leaker and Assange will be charged with espionage if for no other reason than it will be much easier to convict. Being that Assange is NOT an American citizen, he couldn't be convicted of treason anyway so espionage is a much more likely act he will be accused of.

All this hype about "freedom of the press" is just bogus. Assange is not an American and does not live in America. Very little was released (this time) that was much more than embarrassing to both our and many foreign governments. Most of us suspected that many of the revelations were true and all this did was to confirm our suspicions. The biggest fact that was revealed that almost no one outside of FOX is reporting (that is also quite obvious) is that WE ARE BEING LIED TO BY OUR GOVERNMENT! If we take nothing more out of this than that, then we have learned something. Yes, the leakers should be punished for breaking the law - it is a Federal crime to smuggle and pass Classified documents overseas - regardless of one's motivation for doing so. Now that this info is out for all to see, it will hurt our ability to gather intelligence overseas, no question. Our government should be held accountable for their actions however. No one should be above the law, regardless of their position.

'How I Met Your Mother' Season 6, Episode 10 Recap (VIDEO) (AOL TV)

Nov 23rd 2010 3:31PM Dude... you just lost all your cred when you admitted to NOT EVEN KNOWING THE FREAKING NUMBERS FROM LOST!!!

This recap was pretty decent but I was definitely wondering why you didn't acknowledge more LOST references. If you can't even spot Hurley rattling off the most famous number sequence in modern history, well I guess we're just not going to get much more from you.

After that revelation, I'm actually surprised you even knew that Jorge Garcia's name on LOST was Hurley - unless you're also a closet Weezer fan...

'Doctor Who' Fever Hits Craig Ferguson. Plus: Win Season 5 on DVD! (AOL TV)

Nov 18th 2010 2:53PM I have been a Doctor Who fan ever since the Tom Baker years - the first episode I remember watching was "The Brain of Morbius" and I was hooked. A long time ago, I probably would have chosen either Baker or even his successor however I have TOTALLY become a fan of Matt Smith! This past series was the best ever IMHO and due in no small part to Matt taking over the role of the Doctor and just making it his own. I loved the direction this whole season went and was left wanting MORE MORE MORE when it came time for the finale.

I prefer Blu-ray please!

'DWTS' Giveaway: Win Audrina Patridge's Glam Rock Watch! (AOL TV)

Nov 12th 2010 1:19PM I enjoy watching the stars perform in a venue that is out of their comfort zones each week. Some definitely rise to the occasion but many of them just can't cut it. It shows me that they are more normal than many of us think they are!

Megyn Kelly Overcome By Giggle Fit on Live Air (VIDEO) (AOL TV)

Nov 12th 2010 1:16PM Agreed, Megyn is just brilliant and she brings a LOT more to the table than most newscasters. She was even brave enough to visit Howard Stern for an interview and she definitely held her own in what could have been a very difficult interview for her. Megyn's comments regarding the law show her to be incredibly knowledgeable and not just a pretty face. I always love hearing her commentary whether on her own show or as a guest on O'Reilly, et. al. Seeing this clip though just shows she's as human and "normal" as the rest of us and I loved seeing her just overcome with the sillies. Congrats Megyn!

'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Season 1, Episode 5 Recap (AOL TV)

Nov 12th 2010 12:49PM A great recap of the show Rebecca, I think you've distilled it down precisely here. I think the more episodes I see of these particular housewives, the less I really like very many of them. I think you nailed it with your comment about what Kelsey must be thinking - "You'd cheat too if you knew what a witch my wife is." Ugh, what a royal BITCH that woman is! The constant complaining about how "hard" she has it having to "work" so much and how awful that 3500 sq ft apartment is when she's used to living in such luxury in the mansions her husband's money has paid for. Even the scene where she's having her nails done with her mother and her mom couldn't get a word in edgewise! What an ungrateful and lazy bitch! Camille has quickly turned into the Danielle/Michaela of this group and I simply can't stand her. Yes, she certainly brings the drama but honestly, I secretly hope that Kyle just kicks her ass one of these weeks!

That brings me to Taylor and her hideous lips! OMFG that woman is FUGLY! I have never seen the attraction of the women who have their lips done and Taylor is a PERFECT example of why. Not only is she shallow and completely self centered but she is on borrowed time with her husband because of it. If I were married to her (and it would be a freaking COLD DAY before I would even think about it) I would do my absolute best to stay away from her as much as possible. All I can think of each time Taylor is on screen is "I didn't know they cast Daisy Duck on Real Housewives...". Big old duck lips! What were you thinking??? The party last week didn't do her ANY favors either. Can't stand either her or Camille!

Lisa has to be my fave housewife out of the bunch with Kyle and Adrienne as distant seconds. At least WYSIWYG with the three of them and they all seem to be successful in their own right without riding their husbands' coat tails.

Oh and it's Richard BRANSON who owns Virgin airlines, not Richard Burton. Otherwise a great recap (and I'd agree, that was one of the best lines in the show!). Looking forward to Kyle and Camille's showdown next week for sure!
