Bachelor showdown

Staff Writer Paige Wilson The Bachelor Jake picked his final two women and I couldn’t have been more angry. After another Alie cry scene that was unbearable Jake mad his way to the rose ceremony. Jake closed the episode by sending home Gia. He chose Vieanna over Gia. How dumb can he be, does he really think a 23 year old is there to find love and get married? To bad Jake never got to see Us Weeklys latest cover story presenting the double life of Vieanna. The article led readers to belive that she is just there for the publicity. The only decent thing that night was Gia’s fabulous exit. She didn’t scream or…

Lost presents new mysteries

Allie Perison Editor in Chief Last night’s episode of Lost made one thing clear to me: regardless of which story line is reality, the passengers of flight 815 will be tied to each other in some way or another. It should come as no surprised that last night’s episode “What Kate Does” was all about Kate. After reading a few fan websites, I learned that the episode title was a play off of an older episode entitled “What Kate Did” that focused on telling the story how Kate tried to murder her father and now was a fugitive. When Kate left the island last season and took Aaron as her own, she felt a huge responsibility…

Lost starts in final season

Allie Perison Editor in Chief This Tuesday, Lost came back with the first episode of its final season. If you read my last blog, you are well aware of my mixed feelings about the show. As I sat down to watch on Tuesday, I was expecting somewhat of a letdown. I feel like I have been in a troubled six year relationship with Lost. The kind where I think it is cheating on me and am suspicious of its every move. A little drastic? Maybe. True? Definitely. I am not ashamed of my inconsistent relationship with Lost. I still have hope that maybe it will end with the same bang it came in with. After…

Hopes that Lost provides answers

Next Tuesday, Feb. 6, the popular series Lost will return for its 6th and final season. As an avid watcher, I have mixed feelings about what this season has in store. After starting out with a huge following and gradually falling into what some would call a three year sophomore slump, the show is supposedly going to “answer all our unanswered questions.” How many times have we heard this false promise? Quite frankly, I have almost bailed on the show twice, but continued watching in hopes that one of these days I would get some answers. It seems that my love for the characters outweighs my constant annoyance with new mysteries that will inevitably be…

Why “Flash Forward” is the next big show to hit homes

It is the show that has people’s attention everywhere right now. It has sparked rave and attention, some being good and some being bad. The show is called “Flash Forward”. The whole plot of the show is that everyone in the world blacks out for two minutes and 17 seconds. People are shaken up, injured really badly, or even worse are brutally killed. Now some of the questions surrounding the show are pretty simple, but could take awhile to answer completely. How did the blackout happen? Who caused it to happen? WHY did the blackout happen in the first place? The show follows different characters but all mostly revolve around one CIA agent and his…

ABC gains comedy cred with Modern Family and The Middle

Usually, when I need a comedy fix, I watch shows on NBC like “The Office” and “30 Rock”. Sometimes I watch “Two and-a-Half Men” and “How I met your Mother” on CBS. I’ll even turn to Comedy Central to improve my mood, but never have I ever watched ABC for its comedy. Well, until now at least. ABC is now coming out with comedies that I can stand to watch. For example, “The Middle” is about a typical American family. And when I say ‘typical’ I mean relatable. At one point, the main character, Patricia Heaton’s Frankie, tells her kids that they need to eat as a family. They then proceed to bring their food into the…
