Down to the final 3...sure wish the Swon Brothers would have gotten eliminated.
I thought they actually deserved it this week. I guess I will stick with Danielle but won't really be upset with any of the three.

I think the body of work though was better by the girl from Adam's team.

True but then you have to change voting. It should be based on that nights performance. I think Amber and Adam tried too hard to get her away from country. It worked when there were more contestants but she needed to go back to what she does best.

I haven't enjoyed this series of Arrested Development, other than the occasional joke. The Mom has been amusing, but Gob's last episode stopped me drinking (temporarily). The best character in this series has been Tobias and it's not even close.

I agree, I think it has not been good. Though I haven't even found Tobias to be funny. I think the Michael episode where they go up to Ron Howard's office (ep 4?) was like the funniest of the season.

It has to be either Danielle or Michelle who wins tonight. The Swon Brothers basically became the Swon Brother last night...the skinny kid barely sand anything at all last night.

Dexter:

I dont know if I like how they've set up the final season or not. On the one hand, Deb's descent and Dexter's responsibility for it has made me care again, but the whole thing seems uneven. I feel like they're setting up a Sopranos-style ending where he gets captured or killed, but the series up to this point hasn't been a morality play. Dexter's morality has been ambiguous, but it's as if all of a sudden they've made him a clear cut bad guy. Even when he was responsible for Doakes' death, someone else set off the explosion.I think as a result of having shuffled along for a couple of seasons, they had to get super gritty and dark in season 7 with Deb killing LaGuerta. Did Masuka even have a dirty joke all season? Now it looks like Deb begins next season as a drug addicted alcoholic. The series has always been a pulpy comic book, and it's as if now, at the very end, they're adding all this depth, and it's kind of depressing.

If anyone missed the last season of Dexter, Showtime is free and running the marathon all day today.

I have to say this is one of the best Dexter seasons since Trinity.

I am so glad LaGuerta got it.

More Dexter:

The more I think about it, I guess they did head toward the gritty and dark with Rita's death and the whole "it's Dexter's fate to ruin everyone around him" thing, but then they flopped around for season 5 and spoiled all the tension. Props to them for getting it back on track, but it just seems really uneven.

I just started last week. Guess that'll be something for me to look forward to. :picard
You mean the very beginning?

I wish I could go back and watch the first season with fresh eyes. That was great TV.
