Before I get started, GO BUY HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, SEASON 4 ON DVD AND BLU-RAY, IN STORES NOW! After I finish this review, I plan on doing just that. My keys are in my hand, and I’m ready to go! See, I think it’s very important for all of you go buy it on DVD, because to truly appreciate How I Met Your Mother season 5, you need to own seasons 1-4 and watch them all the time, over and over and over again. (Okay, that might just be what I do, but hey-it’s a fun time)!

Vince is a virtual reality video game designer/tester and he has hot hands. The video game looks pretty cool too, kind of like a cross between Halo and some sort of Land Before Time thing. I’d play it.

Vince asks for the famous diagnostics guy. That same guy is telling Cuddy and Foreman that he quits. He says he can’t risk coming back to PPTH because he might fall back into his old ways. Cuddy lets him go and Foreman vies for his job. Cuddy says that the only reason they even had a Diagnostics Dept is because of House, but she gives him a shot anyway.

I fear that our show may not last long. I say this because the ratings where so low last week that they touched the ground, but again I say the pilot episodes are never that great. Wonder if the second episode was any better…

First off, can I just say that an episode without Hiro made me feel a lot less like throwing my remote through the television? Call it the unpopular opinion, but I am glad to not have to listen to him waffle back and forth between changing the future and then doing it anyway. So, what did happen tonight during our Hiro-less episode?

It’s that time of year again. My favorite family is back on television. All the drama, antics and wine from the Walker family are back! Since it’s such a large family, I’m going to take the story lines person by person. We’ll see how this format works (let me know what you think!).

Justin/Rebecca: After getting engaged last season, the opening scene is our lovebirds going to a picnic with Rebecca’s bright and shiny new engagement ring and they are about to get into a car accident. Then we get a flashback to Nora planning their wedding by looking at old pictures 48 hours earlier. Holly and Nora as in-laws? This should be interesting. Justin is still busy studying to be a doctor (yay!) when he gives her the ring in the flashback.

Over the weekend I went to my first Vegas restaurant opening – free food and drinks, great music and red carpet with celebrities galore. I was casually eating when I looked up at the big screen to see Jeremy Piven, Rex Lee and Kevin Dillon walking in. It was like I was at a Vincent Chase movie opening (let’s be honest though … those don’t happen often anymore!). I brushed shoulders with The Piv and let me say, I can die a happy woman now.

Welcome back! I hope you’ve all had a wonderful summer. We kick off the season to the music of Ray Charles as the detectives investigate the 1966 death of a young woman on a cruise ship, and it looks like Lil’s got her hands full with the psycho who tried to kill her last spring. So, without further ado, all aboard!

Yet another episode with some great guest stars – Nia Vardalos as a child switched at birth, Ray Wise as her real father, and Faith Prince as Jane’s mom, that she’s meeting for the very first time. David Denman from The Office also returns, as the lawyer trying to woo Jane. But what in the heaven is going on with Fred!?

What’s up, Family Guy fans? Are you ready for a little vulgar, offensive, insane comedy courtesy of our zany Griffin family? I know I am. And how has Fox rewarded us? With a Stewie-Brian “Road to” episode right off the bat! Let’s get it on!
