Here Comes the Geekin'

Goodness, over the past few days I have been reading of the most exciting news about my favorite television shows. It's a little pathetic how excited I am, but then again, I'm a television major at a communications school... what's your excuse?

First: I've been reading a little about the Grey's Anatomy "What If... ?" episode, and honestly, it looks like it's going to be absolutely hilarious. Allegedly, in this alternate reality, Meredith's mom does not have alzheimer's, which seems to be the catalyst towards what ends up being an extremely fucked up world... at least for the world we've come to know and love on Grey's.

From this, Meredith is that happy and shiny person she's always seems to talk about, and winds up getting married to a dorky Carev. She's not best friends with Cristina... because Cristina's still a cold hearted machine, of course. Plus, Derek and Addison are still together (gotta love the Kate Walsh appearances... jeez pick a show, woman!) and, while looking at the stills from the episode... is that... PERCY?!!? AAAHHHH. BACK FROM THE DEAD.

Ultimately, I'm really wondering how this episode is going to turn out. If we can all remember the last time Grey's tried something pretty drastic... I had to hear Snow Patrol for the 5,000th time on television. Let's hope this turns out mildly entertaining, I'll be patiently waiting for Feb. 2nd.

Second: I'm pretty much freaking out over what I've been hearing are future Parks and Rec guest appearances and how they'll play into the show. Today I just read that Sean Hayes and Paul Rudd will be making their grand debut on the show playing some sort of part in the election process, which has so far been going swimmingly (not), so I'm sure these two fine gentlemen will only be positive reinforcement to the situation (cyberspace sarcasm).

Plus, according to the wikipedia page, I'm still waiting for what will be an incredible return from Louis CK as well as Paul Schneider coming back (GEEK) as Mark Brendanawicz! I swear if Ann goes ANYWHERE near him... ugh. So not deserving. This will be a fabulous spring season.

Finally: As a Valentines Day gift to me, since I knew we were always lovers, ABC will be giving me COUGARTOWN, BABY!

Sorry. Excitement. For some weird reason, the show Work It didn't seem to... umm, work out? Boom. And ABC officially announced today that Cougartown will replace the short lived sitcom starting February 14th at 8:30. I can not wait, mostly because I will be pouring myself the biggest glass of wine in order to celebrate with my fellow T.V. alcoholics int his amazing reunion. Now, if only I can get a hold of NBC for a St. Patrick's Day gift (coughCOMMUNITYcough).

Nothing gets me more excited than guest stars, triumphant returns and exciting twists. Man, it feels good to love television... even if my couch is starting to have that weird butt imprint. Awkward.
