Burt and Virginia are enjoying the evening and they pick up someone else on their baby monitor. A woman (Jaime Pressley) is berating her baby! They go to investigate/save the day and they find that she’s actually yelling at her useless boyfriend who’s a blubbering fool (played by Ethan Suplee). Now Ethan and Jaime worked together extensively on “My Name is Earl” which was also created and produced by Greg Garcia. See how they’re keeping it all in the family?

Burt is tuned into the best radio station in town, the baby monitor station! Virginia doesn’t want to get involved, but Burt has to hear what’s going to happen before he goes to sleep. What will happen?

Well, Chucksters we’re just about at the end of the line for Team Bartowski. NBC is still playing it’s cards close to the vest as to whether Chuck will be returning for season five this fall. We maybe seeing The (capital T) end in these final two episodes and the writers and show runners don’t plan on wrapping things up in a neat little bow by the end of next week.

Sarah (Yvonne Strahovski) gets killed tonight at the rehearsal dinner for the big wedding, but more on that later.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m enjoying seeing the supporting characters get some air time. But suddenly I’m missing the somewhat formulaic episodes we had at the beginning. Let’s see how Victoria gets on shall we?

Mike and Molly are enjoying egg white breakfasts, while dreaming about donuts and Snickers. Molly is looking forward to cake. Victoria arrives home from the night before for her usual routine “bong hit, bath and bed.” She’s so simple and lovely don’t you think?

A man jumps of a roof. End Scene. (As if there isn’t enough confusion in this show…)

The Gregson family breakfast conversation come down to yoga clearing out Tara’s bowels, Kate’s dating failure, Marshall’s difficulties in filmmaking, Charmaine’s parenting woes, and Max’s fantastic news that he has located his old guitar. Clearly a party is in order!

Tonight the mysterious and questionable ally Agent Kaye returns with information for McG. And Danny is exposed to a virus that could mean bio-warfare for the whole island. I cannot wait to see him locked in hazmat! First on the docket is a raid on Wo Fat. McG cuffs Kaye to a cop car, but she’s a clever analyst and breaks free when a bomb takes out some of the SWAT guys. The guy they are hunting is not Wo Fat but the informant guy they put in jail awhile ago.

When did he get out? He gets away, but the gang thinks he was trying to kill Wo Fat with the bomb. He is a rat afterall! In the house he fled to, there’s a dead guy. And Danny is only one to see him. When he comes out he’s sick. Poor Danno!

There is only one more episode left this season…Now, that’s just crazy! Maybe that’s why cousin Charlie’s off her meds! But that’s not even the wildest thing that happens this week! Dan is unknowingly reenacting Fatal Attraction, Blair is still hell-bent on marrying her stupid prince and Jack Bass brings on the comic relief.

I know, I can’t quite process that last one…

Dancing with the Stars
Week 8

Original Air Date: May 9, 2011

It’s down to the final five. It’s also the return of the instant dance. Each couple will do one individual dance and an instant dance – which means they won’t find out the music for their second dance until they’ve finished the first one. They then get 20 minutes to coordinate their choreography to the music.

Unfortunately for one celeb, an injury bit into practice time this week. Ralph Macchio has a leg injury that really limited rehearsal time. This also meant he went into the instant dance with no rehearsal and no routine. Read on to find out how he and everyone else did.
