A Great Night For TV

OMG- "How I Met Your Mother" was in top form last night- rivaling in laughs the episode of "riends" "The One With All the Secrets" (which, may or may not have been the title of that episode, but the one I've come up with describes it pretty well). For those "Friends" fans- you'll remember that episode of where all of the characters revealed a dark secret about one another. I had never laughed so hard during an episode of any TV show until last night. HIMYM was absolutely stinkin' hysterical with each character revealing to another someone else's worst habits after the gang reveals to Ted that his newest girl talks incessantly- never letting anyone get a word in edgewise. It was as good an episode as the original "Slap Bet" episode.

"The Big Bang Theory" also had a good showing last night- admittedly, I didn't really care for the show when it first started, I was still smarting over the cancellation of "The Class" which had gotten REALLY funny (especially the whole diet=adultery episode). But it's definitely finding its way.

"Heroes" had a great episode last night with the promise of an exciting episode coming next week. Anybody else wondering if Peter's "escape" with Adam wasn't planned all along by the company? And just how is Adam going to save the world...what exactly is his plan? UGH!!! I just want to know, and sadly, I don't think that we're going to find out this year should the strike continue. Coming up next: a beach showdown with HRG, Claire, Elle, Bob, Mohinder and (I think) West. Could be it that even though we assumed that HRG was the dead guy in Isaac's painting- but could it be Bob? He does wear glasses, and it certainly didn't look good for him in last night's preview. HOWEVER- and this is a pretty big HOLY CRAP picture, so look only if you dare.

"Journeyman" keeps getting better and better. I really hope this show sticks around. Last night, Dan's past started to catch up with him in many ways, and we learned when Livia actually comes from. Also, things don't look good for Dan's future in terms of travelling- Livia warns him that the jumps will likely become longer and longer, and we learn now that there's a possibility that he could jump somewhere and never return to his own time (though Livia never broached the possibility that her last jump that kept her in the late 80s was really an extended jump because of Dan- after all, she had to become a "real" person in order for them to meet, fall in love and become someone that he would trust when he started his own travelling). Sadly, I'm unable to find any spoilers about upcoming episodes.
