What to Watch (Week of 12/12)

First off...who watched Once Upon a Time on Sunday?! Gahh!! Why oh why oh why!!?? Still my new favorite show, but I just couldn't believe you they killed off. I'm just hoping that since this show has two "worlds" and is a sci-fi/fantasy type, that they won't stay dead forever. Please please please. That being said, I already know I will be purchasing this show when its seasons are out on DVD. I love love love it. And yes, I say seasons because I am hoping this show will be around for a long time. And I only buy shows with multiple seasons, so I'm just putting it out into the world :)

On to other news. My schedule is dwindling so fast! Okay, it may not look like it right now, but I had to find a lot of fillers since all my shows are on hiatus. I cannot believe it is the middle of December already! I finally got caught up on Parks and Recreation, so that will now be added to the schedule, but still need to watch Revenge and finish The O.C. and start Friday Night Lights among many others I'm sure you could and should suggest to me ;)

Detroit Red Wings vs. Pittsburg Penguins (FSD) 7pm ET | My two favorite teams. I hope Sidney Crosby is back to playing for this one.
Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas (movie) (ABCFam) 8pm (DVR) | Like I haven't seen it a billion times already...Not as good as the original cartoon, but at least we can see Taylor Momsen when she was all cute and not a scary whore-ish raccoon.

Sam: I'm not an idiot, Dean, I know first aid for a friggin' bullet to the head.
Dean: There’s not even a contest! Survival is the only criteria, and when the crap hits the fan, it’s not about who has skill, it’s about who’s the bigger bad-ass. Bobby, will you please tell Sam that Chuck Norris could kick Jet Li’s ass?
Rufus: You do know that whatever you’re trying to avoid with the eye rolls and the grump-alumping, that’s exactly where you need to go.
Bobby: How am I supposed to know what I don’t want me to know?
The Reaper: Bobby, you’ve helped. You got handed a small, unremarkable life and you did something with it. Most men like you die of liver disease watching Barney Miller reruns. You’ve done enough. Believe me.
Bobby to his father: Kids ain’t supposed to be grateful! They’re supposed to eat your food and break your heart, you selfish dick. You died and I was still so afraid I’d turn into you I never even had kids of my own.
Bobby to his father: As fate would have it, I adopted two boys. And they grew up great. They grew up heroes. So you can go to Hell!
Bobby's last word to Sam and Dean: Idjits.
Sam: Scoot, jerkface. / Dean: Scoot, jerkface? Show your elders some respect. / Sam: You scoot, asshat.
Dean: Did we get licorice? / Sam: No, we did not get licorice. We got good snacks. Licorice is disgusting. / Dean: I’m sorry, I didn’t quite understand that, Mr. Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwiches. / Sam: You know what, I stand by that sandwich. Nobody likes licorice. It’s made of dirt. / Dean: It is a classic movie food. It’s right up there with popcorn. / Sam: Popcorn? Really? You’re out of your mind. / Dean: What, it’s like little chewy pieces of Heaven. / Sam: Chewy pieces of Heaven if you’re a girl.

Manager: I love this place. It gives me purpose. / Booth: The copy shop? / Manager: We ship too.
Sheila: My what? / Booth: Your ass bones. They're like fingerprints in your pants.
Sheila: I'm a slut. Not a killer.
Clark: Did you know that cabbage leaves are recommended to soothe sore breasts. Apparently the phytochemicals in the plant... / Brennan: I spent the evening naked, so my breasts are actually feeling much better today. Thank you.

I Can't Wait For...The Gangster Squad

I have been meaning to add this movie to my "I Can't Wait For" portion of my blog, but I do so many weekly posts now that I've been putting it off. Since a lot of TV shows are now on their hiatuses, I thought Thanksgiving Weekend would be the perfect time. And why not...since I am very thankful for Ryan Gosling (and Emma Stone).

The Gangster Squad is an upcoming crime drama film that chronicles the LAPD's fight to keep East Coast Mafia types out of Los Angeles in the 1940s and 50s. The movie is directed by Ruben Fleischer and is written by Will Beall. The film stars Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone, Sean Penn, and Josh Brolin.

Ryan Gosling has definitely moved to the top of my favorite actors list after his last few movies (Drive, Crazy Stupid Love) and Emma Stone is definitely one of my favorite actresses (which is a very short list). She is hilarious in Easy A, and I loved her and Ryan's chemistry together in Crazy Stupid Love, so I know they will do great together in this movie too.

Comingsoon.net has some on-set pictures on their website that can be viewed here...but here is one of the pics.

Photo credit: Comingsoon.net

The film is set to be released on October 19, 2012 by Warner Bros. Pictures.

Bobby: You die before me and I'll kill ya. / Dean: We need to scrape some money together and get you a condo or somethin'.

After It Airs (SPN 11/11)

Supernatural
Season 7 Episode 8 - Season 7, Time for a Wedding!

Summary (courtesy of The CW Network):
While on a hunt, Sam (Jared Padalecki) runs into someone from his past and a confrontation ensues. Meanwhile, Dean reluctantly teams up with a quirky, laid-back hunter named Garth (guest star DJ Qualls), when he finds himself in a situation that he just cannot explain. Tim Andrew directed the episode written by Andrew Dabb & Daniel Loflin.

News!!:
So last night I went out to a bar with a few friends in North Hollywood. And guess who was there?! "The Other Winchester"! Yep, I met Jake Abel aka Adam Milligan and I one point, Micheal the Archangel. I asked for his picture and he was super nice and agreed. Here it is below! Its a little fuzzy since the bar was so dark and we were using a phone for the pic, but I think it turned out pretty good (except for my hair in a pony tail - what was I thinking?! Now I just have to meet Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki, and Misha Collins and my life will be complete ;)

Favorite Episode Quotes:
Dean: This is my ‘I dig smart chicks’ look. If they wore that, I wouldn’t have dropped out of school.
Becky: Guy’s a really good friend. We met in the erotic horror section at the Novel Hovel.
Becky: If everyone had a Wiccan in their pocket, the world would be a happier place.
Garth: He said you’d be all surly and premenstrual working with me.
Garth: I drop this lady at my cousin’s, he’ll stop anything trying to get her. We find Sam, hopefully fix this, everybody’s home in time for America’s Got Talent. Now you, you’ll be living with a tri-racial, paraplegic sniper until this all blows over.
Sam: It’s never something else. When are there ever two crazy things in town at the same time?
Becky: This is not how I imagined spending my reunion. I was gonna show you off. Not that anyone actually knows who you are. Supernatural’s not exactly popular. But you’re tall and nice and they’d all think I was happy.
Becky: I know you don’t love me. I know what I am, OK. I’m a loser. In school, in life. Guess that’s why I like you so much. I mean, not that you’re a loser. But you had that whole character arc about being a freak and I can relate.
Becky: Chuck dumped me. I think I intimidated him with my vibrant sexuality.
Garth: Blueberry vodka: The answer to all life’s problems.
Crowley: I only have one rule: Make a deal, keep it. There’s a reason we don’t call our chits in early: consumer confidence. This isn’t Wall Street, this is Hell. We have a little something called integrity.
Dean: I gotta say man, you don’t suck. / Garth: Thank you. That’s the nicest thing anyone’s ever said to me.

Favorite Episode Quotes:
Damon: I am forming a secret contingency plan. / Elena: What is it? / Damon: If I told you, it wouldn't a secret.
Klaus: Portland is fantastic. Once you get over all the whiny music and healthy-looking people it’s literally a breeding ground for werewolves.
Stefan: I’m one hundred and sixty two years old and I’m going to a homecoming dance. I need better ties. / Elena: You could not go. / Stefan: I’m compelled to protect you. And if I look at your track record at high school dances it’s pretty tragic. With my luck you’ll go out and get yourself murdered by the homecoming queen.
Caroline: I finally almost got your mom to stop hating me, so I probably shouldn't get caught in some kind of vampire threesome with her son.
Caroline: Matt is an innocent, good person who should not be going to dances with evil blood sluts.
Tyler: I’m here hanging streamers and I’ve got glitter all over my hands. If I’m sired to anybody it’s you.
Damon: It's very Katherine of you. / Elena: Not the way to make me feel better about myself. / Damon: It was a compliment. Sort of.
Damon: Do you trust me? / Elena: Yes.
Damon: I'd offer you a drink, but Katherine tells me you're more of a vampire-on-the-rocks kind of guy.
Tyler: Klaus can't be killed. I can't be fixed. Understand that I'm okay with it.
Tyler: It’s not a party, man. It’s a wake.
Caroline: You’re sired to Team Klaus now and you can’t be trusted.
Mikael: They can’t kill me. / Klaus: True. But it will make one hell of a party game.
Tyler: I’m sorry I stabbed you. It’s the only thing I could think of to get you out of there. / Caroline: Oh yeah? Not, ‘Hey Caroline. I’m worried about what might happen this evening. So maybe you should go home and watch Dancing with the Stars.’

Favorite Episode Quotes:
Hodgins: Dr. Brennan, are you sure you don’t want a chair? The way you’re squatting, I’m worried that little guy in there is just going to drop right out. / Brennan: Thank you, but my uterus and cervical plug are quite healthy. Also, I’m not having a boy … it’s a girl.
Brennan: Ultrasounds are poorly pixelated and in black and white – you only like movies that are in color. / Booth: I would have loved this movie. It would have been my favorite movie of all time.
Hodgins: Okay!  I’m sorry!  All right?  I was...an ass-hat. I am Thurston the ass-hat!  There!  Now...how do you scare a snake in a fishin’ hole?!
