Somewhere in Sacramento, a guy in a hoodie follows Grace down a dark alley. She addresses him as Mr. Black, but this is pretty obviously a pseudonym.

She wishes to engage him for a bit of business, and she pulls out a photo of Rigsby, and tells him that she wants Rigsby dead. Come on, Grace, I didn’t think the break up was that bad.

In Muncie, IN, a security guard enters the abandoned Elysian Fields Hotel. Well, he thinks it’s abandoned until he’s attacked and eaten by a guy in a tux.

Soon after, our boys check into the very same hotel during a storm. They conveniently have a vacancy and a buffet with PIE, all for Dean. Sam’s restless and wants to get out of there, but Dean wants Sam to get some rest because he’s getting burned out. They head up to their room, where Sam gets suspicious of the quality of this hotel out in the middle of nowhere.

Lee Marvin vs. Derek Jeter/Khonani

Original Air Date: Apr 22, 2010

Laura Kelley – Associate Staff Writer
laurakelley@thetwocentscorp.com

After a long hiatus, 30 Rock is back. Jack is still dating “slutty Grace Kelly” Avery Jessup and Liz is still dressing like the opposite of that, a prison weed dealer, and failing to meet guys at dodgeball because she hits them in the face. Suddenly Nancy, Jack’s ex, shows up and says she’s divorced.

Jack wants to juggle both women, despite Liz’s disapproval. Tracy learns to speak Dolphin because of racism, and then Liz goes to singles line dancing. Tracy convinces Twofer that he got his job through affirmative action and Twofer quits. Meanwhile, Jack is torn between two women when he has to choose between Nancy and playing beer pong with Avery and Derek Jeter.

Tonight – finally – is the night we’ll get an answer to one of the biggest questions of the series – will Demetri live or die?

The resolution has major implications for the show as a whole, and also for all the fans who would be devastated not to see John Cho every week, so this is a big deal.

Welcome back to study group after what felt like an insanely long hiatus. Just in case you missed the good news, Community has been officially renewed for a second season! If you could change one thing going into the next season, would you?

For me, the show is perfection, but I wouldn’t mind a Troy and Abed spin off. Speaking of, let’s see what they’re up to this episode.

This week, major musical names gathered for Idol Gives Back, which has raised $140 million over the years. In the past, the contestants were given a pass this week because of the theme, but not this time.

Ryan gathered three of the seven remaining contestants — Casey James, Tim Urban and Aaron Kelly – in the elimination circle.

Sara M. – Reviewer

The post break up episode, our first encounter with the FBI since Agent O’Conner (who, lets face it, set the bar pretty low for likable FBI agents), and no family drama for Mary.

Also includes guest star Steven Weber, furthering my theory that anyone who has done a program with Aaron Sorkin will eventually end up on USA Network. And away we go.

Glee – Recap & Review – The Power of Madonna

Glee
The Power of Madonna

Original Air Date: Apr 20, 2010

Patricia Morris Buckley — Staff Writer
pmb@thetwocentscorp.com

This episode of all-Madonna, all-the-time has been hyped for a long time, but it still managed to live up to the hype.

The pretense for sandwiching Madge into all things Glee is not very imaginative. Sue, still blackmailing Principal Figgins, demands he plays Madonna’s greatest hits all day long at top volume throughout the school. Will watches the Cheerios perform a cheer to the tunes and gets inspired to have Gleesters sing from the Material Girl songbook.

Why, CBS, why have a new episode of this show tonight and an old one next week? With its already struggling ratings, you put a new episode against Idol Gives Back and then a repeat?

What makes it worse is that tonight’s episode contains potentially the biggest development on this show in…well, ever.
