This week’s excuse is “Exercise is boring!” Well, it can be, of course, but it’s your own responsibility to find activities that you enjoy so that you don’t get burned out. I personally prefer things like dancing, swimming and biking. I enjoy walking as long as I can listen to music while doing so. What kind of exercises do you enjoy?

Of course all the losers miss Hawaii, but some are glad to be back on campus because it means a return to routine. Back to where they are comfortable and can put more focus on the weight loss. After all, isn’t that why they are there?

We open tonight’s episode with a Navy SEAL unit working on a training exercise that uses missiles to blow up things like buses and other vehicles that may be seen out in the field when the unit is deployed. This training episode includes a robot with a camera. What is seen by the camera is disturbing – a fellow soldier, Ensign Powell, with cuts and bloodied bruises. Not only that, but the soldier is dead.

Agents Hanna, Kallen and their team are dispatched to the scene. It was actually Lt Commander Westerman that had requested that Hanna be the liaison – he has a really good reputation that proceeds him that makes it so he is the one you want to lead your team.

“LIVE! with Kelly” Unveils New Set With Week of Celebration April 9

On April 9, 2012, “LIVE! with Kelly” host Kelly Ripa will unveil “LIVE’s” brand-new set and kick off a week of celebration, highlighted by “House DJ Week” – five of the top DJs in the country stopping by to spin some tunes and rock “LIVE’s” new home.

The new set is the most extensive update to the show’s studio since its 1988 debut in national syndication. The set has the feel of a contemporary downtown-style loft, spacious and yet maintaining the studio’s warmth and intimacy. With earthy and textured materials such as wood and stone finishes and a 20-foot-tall stacked stone tile wall backing the main staircase, the space features a warm golden palette accentuated by punches of color. Other additions include more production spaces for performances and demo segments, and an updated lighting system with state-of-the-art LED fixtures.

Jess’ first date with “Fancyman” was decent until the end. When she started being super awkward (of course) and he gave her a hug and patted her on the back. Like a child. What?? Meanwhile, in the apartment, Nick has a friend staying over. No, not that kind of friend! His name is Dirk and he makes Jess look like a Stepford.

Cece upset Schmidt by saying that she was the boss in her relationship. Schmidt tries to stand his ground, and starts to succeed.

Since when do the Chance’s go to church? Who cares when Vivica A. Fox is a guest! She is the chairperson of the church volunteer group, and she just totally took all the credit for the work Burt did. Now he’s thinking about going up against her in the upcoming election.

In the perfect Chance moment, they act out their own comics since they don’t get the Sunday paper anymore. Costumes, scripts, theme music, the whole nine yards. How awesome is that?
