Was Smallville new last night? Where I live (the South) there was only college basketball on the CW. I’m confused.

I was disappointed there wasn’t more Owen and Christina scenes on GA. And, the so called injury Christina received at the hands of Owen turned out to be nothing really.

Forgot the “T” in preempted!

Spoiler Warning for ER….

Overall, I liked last night’s episode of ER, probably only the 2nd or 3rd one I’ve seen in 8 to ten years. But, it did have one minor flaw which robbed it of a little credibility…

When Doug Ross was rattling off names of old County General people to Neela, he of course forgot to ask about Carter. He even remembered Anspaugh — but not Carter??? If he had remembered to ask about Carter, Neela might have said that in fact the kidney was for him, and the episode would have taken an entirely different direction for Doug & Carol and would have spoiled the ultimate irony that they helped save Carter without he or them even knowing it.

Considering that Benton caught the mistake of Carter’s transplant surgeon but probably wouldn’t say anything about it later, all three classic ER characters helped Carter without him realizing it. It was an interesting way to have a “reunion” of four characters without all four of them even being in the same state.

I may even dare to say I loved last night’s episode of ER. Surprisingly, I didn’t feel as though things were bring shoved down our throats. Instead, there were just some subtle mentions: Reese is 13 (!), Peter and Cleo are still together, and just a quick acknowledgment of Doug and Carol’s twins. Plus, I thought that Doug and Carol randomly stopping in a County to just see what’s new would have been pretty far-fetched, so I loved this conclusion.

Like a few others above me, I was a little annoyed with Doug, Neela and Sam not mentioning Carter. But, in regards to tan earlier post, I don’t think Neela knew the kidney was for Carter, and I think it work out that they only thought it was “some doctor” in Chicago.

My only complaint….I wanted to see some of the flight with the Jamaican band!

Heathen! The series is evolving. Don’t YOU want to become Ladygirrr someday in the future?
Now, about Supernatural. The episode had lots of interesting twists: Dean is not ok with how the things stand between him and Sam, while Sam is more than glad to forget about what happened with the siren and lie his a$$ off about his powers. Dude, if everyone knows, why lie?
I really liked how they showed the difference between the world of living and dead – how everything seems so much colder. Nice touch.
Then we saw a few old faces: Tessa the Reaper, Alastair (who was struck by the lightning) and Castiel (who can sound like Bobby).
Sadly, they killed Pamela the Physic. But nothing stays dead in SPN for long. Oh, and the boys were ghosts for awhile and had to learn ghost-fu moves. That was funny.
All in all, the episode was quite good after the long waiting and the next one should be AWESOME! Blood drinking and Demon torturing! YaY!
