I'm sitting here with my dad the other night and he asks me if I want a three way light bulb for the lamp at my desk. I say no, because I like a lot of light at my desk so I can see and I didn't see much use for a three way light bulb if I just always leave it on high. Well, a few minutes later he goes out and comes back in with a three way squiggly florescent light bulb. I say I don't think that will even fit in the lamp. He says he'll put the light in the lamp.
Then he tells me there's a federal light bulb law, that starting next year you won't be able to buy regular light bulbs any more. I seriously thought he was BS'ing me. Then he started talking about how SC was fighting to prevent the law. So I get to looking...

Private Practice April 28, 2011 What We Have Here
What We Have Here...
Maybe I'm just in a mood, but I wasn't really wow'd by this episode. Sorry Shonda.
Charlotte's ex husband Billy Douglas cheated on her when they were married. Did we know Charlotte was married before. Seems like they might have mentioned a husband before, but I really can't remember. The ex cheated on Charlotte and she saved his picture? I don't get that. I mean it wasn't full of dart or shot gun holes or anything. Why did she save it? Cooper said Charlotte had lied to him about this guy before. Who remembers this? Please help me refresh my memory. Well at least she got her "closure".
Addison and Sam - Well Addison wants her baby, that's nothing new. She gave Sam an ultimatum and he's not happy about it. Can't say that I blame him. I like Addison and Sam together but I don't think Sam should be forced to have a kid if he doesn't want one. I don't see that scenario ending well. I wonder what Sam's answer will be.
Violet and Katie. I thought the lawsuit would be about the book and patient confidentiality and it was. First off why is Katie out of jail? That's a whole other rant. I think Katie needs to deal with what she did, not put it behind her and pretend it didn't happen. It seems like Katie thinks if the book goes away it will help her to forget what she did. I also had the thought that the medical board would probably be harsher than a courtroom over this issue, since I assumed Violet changed the names to protect the innocent or not so innocent. Guess we will see what the medical board decides.
The pregnant lady is willing to die for her baby. I get that, but why did Addison think this woman had to tell the husband she had an abortion? I mean isn't the guy going through enough already? It wasn't Addison's place to force the issue.
I like Marla and Sheldon together. I've been a fan of Alex Kingston's since she was on ER. I hope she returns.
I hope Naomi returns soon too. I miss her. And where is the daughter and baby?

Finally a new episode! "It's a long way back"
I guess Callie having a traumatic brain injury will allow a lot of avenues for storyline. I sure hope she gets to operate again. Callie certainly is a fighter.
I love Christina. Are you giving me the finger? Good job! And then telling Callie the baby looks like a chicken. It's sad and scary, but Christina made it funny.

Deadliest Catch Season 7 Episode 3 Recap
"Old Age and Treachery"
We start out with fisherman having flashbacks and making comments.
Jake Harris - I sometimes fall asleep and start dreaming about work. They show a picture of Jake Harris.
Captain Keith of the Wizard - I have dreams that are too close and too eerie, the way they are connected with the boat.
Jake Harris - Then all of a sudden you wake up and you don't know where you are. You don't know what day it is then all of a sudden you're like f**k I'm in the Bering sea.

Big Brother 13 To Start July 6th
UPDATE: JUNE 9, 2011 The start date to Big Brother 13 has changed to July 7th.
Seventy days until Big Brother 13 starts. July 6th is when it all starts again.
Big Brother has had some casting calls, and they are having additional ones May 4th, 6th, and 7th in Kentucky, Tennessee and South Carolina. Go to BigBrotherLeak for casting call information.
I am almost over this show, but I'll give it one more season and see. I'm getting tired of all of the reality shows. I only watch three now. This one in particular feels more scripted than ever and it seems like more and more the characters are "wanna be's" you know they want to become big TV stars, not just win the money. I know last year several of the people had agents before even getting accepted in the house.
The show was more interesting last season because I watched Big Brother After Dark, but then you end up knowing who won stuff before the CBS show airs. So we'll see.
I seriously hope there are no guest appearances from Brendon and Rachel. I can't take anymore of them.

Roger Howarth Returning To One Life To Live Sooner Than Expected - Picketing - Boycotting
It was originally reported that Roger Howarth would start filming his return to One Life To Live in May.
Now it seems his first on air appearance will be on May 13th.
I can't wait to see if he will be "The Real Todd Manning" or someone else.
I still can't believe that ABC has canceled these shows. I am really hoping they are losing viewers across the board and that soap viewing is picking up. Yesterday people picketed Disney, ABC, and affiliates across the United States, ABC in New York called the police on the picketers. Way to win fans ABC!

"It's A Long Way Back"
I hope we will finally get to see what happens to Callie and her baby and get some of our other questions answered.
Like who is going to be Chief resident, will Teddy and Henry get together? And how about Lucy and Alex? Or will Lucy get sent packing after her major incompetence with Callie? Will Eli propose to Bailey? Will Bailey say yes if he does? Will Meredith get pregnant? What will happen between Christina and Owen now that he is picking the Chief resident?

Ted Shackelford Jeffery Bardwell The Young and The Restless Temporarily Replaced
Ted Shackelford is evidently on a temporary leave of absence from The Young & The Restless. He has been temporarily replaced by Kin Shriner, who most of us recognize as Scotty Baldwin from General Hospital. Reports indicate that Ted Shackelford will miss three episodes so hopefully he will return soon.
I've been a long time fan of Ted's since he was on Knot's Landing.
I don't know what has happened that Ted Shackelford is absent, but I can only imagine it isn't good. I just want to send my best wishes to Ted and his family. I hope he returns to the show soon, and all is well.
