This week Michael, Pam, and Ryan are back. Michael has a meeting and invites everyone to say whatever they want, but basically he wants everyone who didn’t follow him to his new company to grovel in forgiveness. The staff is upset that Pam and Ryan are coming back as salespeople and that they’re keeping the clients they stole.
Four score and seven years ago, our forefathers set forth on this great….
Ok, so, it wasn’t four score ago, heck, I don’t even know what four score is. And I’m not exactly a forefather. But I did bring this special site into the world in 2007. Since then, TheTwoCents has gone from a site I created for a class project, to a Pop Culture site written by me and my friends, to what you see today.
The vision of TheTwoCents is very simple. The people who write for this site love TV. The people who read it love TV. TheTwoCents is a place for us to share our thoughts – the chance to give our own TwoCents on topics related to Television and hope that you choose to do the same.

Things are all out of order on 30 Rock. First, Tracy literally plays the race card on Liz because of her elaborate scheme to get him to come to work on time, and then Tracy sends a monkey to work in his place. Pete likes the monkey better, but it still ends up being abandoned in a hallway. Life is hard.

Betty is back! It’s been so long, I forgot where we left off. Oh yea, Betty started dating Matt and was taking it to another level (If you know what I mean). Wilhelmina is still playing mommy. Meade Publishing is still going broke. So let’s see what will happen, shall we?

The shock didn’t come in the elimination — oh no. It came in who ended up almost being voted off — Adam Lambert. You know, the heir apparent of S8. Fourth. Not first. Not second. Not third. Fourth.
And that’s just not right.

I was sure I knew who was going home this week. It was obvious who was the worst out of the bunch and I felt like his time had come, and that horse needed to be put down. But it would be reality television if there were no surprises. And no, I don’t mean that Robin Thicke is still culturally relevant.

This week, the episode starts out with a ripped from the headlines story that is uncomfortably similar to the Caylee Anthony tragedy. Hilary Duff guest stars as Ashlee Walker, the young mother of baby Sierra who claims she left her baby with a babysitter. Her mother (guest star Gail O’Grady) goes to the Special Victims Unit when she hasn’t seen her granddaughter in days and doesn’t believe the babysitter story.
