So the People's Choice Awards 2012 Nominees Selection is up, and we have a chance to vote for our favorite movies, television shows, actors, music, etc. A few of the categories include: Favorite Movie, Favorite Movie Icon, Favorite Book Adaptation, Favorite TV Guest Star, Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy Show, among many others. One thing I was not happy about was the fact that Ian Somerhalder was the only one from The CW to be nominated for Favorite TV Drama Actor. Uh, hello!? What about Paul Wesley, Jarad Padalecki, and Jensen Ackles. AND...to top it all off, Nina Dobrev wasn't nominated for Favorite TV Drama Actress either! Who came up with this list?! Luckily they leave you a "write in" place on the ballot, and I urge everyone to add these names to that list. Please, and Thank You. At least Supernatural and The Vampire Diaries were on the list for Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy Show. Though they are also on the list with True Blood, Falling Skies, and The Walking Dead too. I watch a lot of Sci-Fi/Fantasy. So go here and vote!

Going to start of this week talking about the SPIKE SCREAM AWARDS. Technically the award show took place on Saturday night but it will actually air later this week. A full list of winners can be found here, but I'm going to list off a few that I was very happy with:
THE ULTIMATE SCREAM: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2
BEST FANTASY ACTOR: Daniel Radcliffe for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 BEST HORROR ACTOR: Alexander Skarsgård for True Blood
BEST SUPER HERO: Chris Evans as Captain America for Captain America: The First Avenger
BREAKOUT PERFORMANCE - MALE: Joe Manganiello for True Blood
BEST CAMEO: Hugh Jackman for X-Men: First Class
Can I just also add that the award ceremony took place in Universal City, which is very close to wear I am currently staying, and that Paul Wesley and Mark Wahlberg among many others were in attendance. Paul Wesley, people. I was so close to becoming a stalker-lady and going to that part of town to see if I could spot him. But I did not. It took a lot of self control...and the fact that no one would have gone with me. I don't like to be a creeper alone.
Moving on, here is this week's What to Watch *Note that last week I forgot to add The Walking Dead to Sundays schedule. Please forgive me:

Supernatural Season 7 Episode 4 - Defending Your Life
Summary(courtesy of The CW Network):
Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) investigate a string of gruesome murders and discover the Egyptian god Osiris (guest star Faran Tahir) is behind the deaths. The vengeful god is putting people on trial for their past mistakes and killing them if found guilty. Osiris hones in on Dean's guilt and decides he's the next to stand trial. Sam steps in as Dean's lawyer, but both brothers are unprepared when Osiris calls an unexpected witness – Jo (guest star Alona Tal). Robert Singer directed the episode written by Adam Glass.
My Side Note:
Can I just say that I liked this episode overall, even if it did seem like Dean got off kind of easy at the end. Though the comedic episodes are my absolute fave, I do like the serious episodes too. 'I mean the best parts are when the cry.' And for realz, those flashbacks killed me. I got tears every time on popped up. Especially the old scenes between Dean and Jo. It just makes me think how long I've been with this show. I've basically grown up with this show (at least through my high school and college life) and have loved every minute of it. I don't know what I will do when my boys aren't on TV anymore. Thank God for DVD boxed sets. But enough of that terrible talk...moving on. Can I just say that I love how much they incorporate Michigan on this show! Having been born and raised in Michigan, I love the love this state gets. This episode was set in Dearborn, Michigan, other Michigan mentions include Saginaw, Lansing, East Lansing, Michigan State University, Ypsilanti, maybe others but that's what I could recall. Makes me love this show even more, as a Michigan State University graduate ;) Favorite Episode Recaps: 'Supernatural' Recap: The Trial of Dean Winchester - BuddyTV.com
Favorite Episode Quotes:
Detective: Welcome to Crazy Town, population one dead guy.
Dean: Dead and sober: double crappy.
Dean: Wait a second, do dogs even have ghosts? That sounds weird. Ghost dog.
Dean: It's been a while, but you owe yourself. It's nothing but a ground ball, you just gotta put your mitt down. You are Dean Winchester. This is what you do.
Sam: Objection. Witness being called without prior notice. / Dean: Good one. / Sam: I saw that on The Good Wife." Dean: Enough Ally McBealing, just drop the hammer, will ya?
Bobby: I say we slap that band-aid on and leave finding a cure to some Hunter in a space suit.
Dean: I am 90 percent crap. I get rid of that, what then?
Dean: I get why Judge Judy put me on trial, I’ve got guilt coming out of my pores, but why’d he skip you?
The Vampire Diaries Season 3 Episode 5 - The Reckoning
Summary (courtesy of The CW Network):
Despite all that has happened, Caroline is determined to see that Elena, Bonnie, Matt and Tyler all enjoy a traditional Senior Prank Night before the school year begins at Mystic Falls High School. However, when uninvited guests show up, it doesn't take long for the evening to take a deadly turn. Damon convinces Jeremy that he can use his new connection to the other side to help find a way to defeat Klaus. Finally, Klaus deepens his hold on Stefan and uses him for increasingly violent and dangerous purposes. John Behring directed the episode written by Michael Narducci.
My Side Note:
Whoa. This episode was auh-mazing. I mean, I am having a hard time deciding between Episode 3: The End of the Affair and this one. By far this has been the best season of The Vampire Diaries and we are only five episodes in! What are they going to do for mid-season! I am just blown away by this episode. So much happened! And here are tweets of a couple of my favorite TV recap writers that ring very similar to me:
Favorite Episode Quotes (WARNING: There are a lot...basically the whole script):
Bonnie: Hey, where are you going? / Elena: To superglue Alaric's desk shut. Making Memories.
Klaus: There's my girl. You're supposed to be dead. What are we going to do about that?
Damon: Stop being cute. / Katherine: It's not possible.
Rebekah: Consider me jealous.
Elena: You don't have to hurt anybody. / Klaus: Oh come on, love. Of course I do.
Tyler to Caroline: I think I love how big your heart is.
Rebekah: I'm the new girl.

Klaus: I’d like you all to meet my sister, Rebekah. Word of warning: she can be quite mean. / Rebekah: Don't be an ass.
Damon: Stop with the teenybopper drama. Focus.
Caroline: Where’s Tyler? / Rebekah: He’s dead. Ish.
Rebekah: Why is that doppelganger bitch wearing my necklace?!
Klaus: Always nice to see a vampire in his true element. The species has become such a broody lot.
Klaus: I invited him to the party, love. He's the one dancing on the table.
Damon: Don’t fall asleep, Jer, you might have a concussion. / Jeremy: Thanks for the concern, dick.
Stefan: I’m a ripper. A ripper doesn’t stop!
Stefan: You know what? You’re right. You’re right. I owe you everything. Because through all of this you are the one thing that has kept me from giving up, from turning it all off. But I can’t help what I am, Elena. The more blood that I get, the more I want. And if I get so much as near yours, you are dead!
Rebekah: Tick tock goes the gym clock.
Bonnie to Matt: As soon as you’re feeling better, I’m going to kill you.
Klaus: Given the choice, doppelganger or hybrid, I go hybrid every time.
Klaus to Stefan: Turn. It. Off. / Elena: No!!!! / Klaus (compulsion): TURN IT OFF! / Elena: What did you do? / Klaus: I fixed him.
Tyler: Everything’s just better.
Elena: Where were you Damon? / Damon: I shouldn’t have left. I promise you, I will never leave you again.
Stefan: Well, isn’t this cozy? / Damon: What’re you doing here, brother? / Stefan: Last I checked, I live here. Klaus is gone. But he’s asked me to keep a watch on you until he returns. From now on, you’re under my protection. By all means, carry on.
