The Big Catch Up (Not Ketchup)

Kim Reis

So I’m battling a head cold and it’s Mother’s Day.  Great combination!  No, seriously.  Ya see, in our house, Mother’s Day is my lazy day.  I can stay in my jammies all day if I want.  I can stay in bed all day if I want.  It’s a tradition and I love it!  So, this morning we went out for breakfast and, when we came home, I got into my new bed (thank you Cardi’s - plug, plug) and started to catch up on my TiVo.  WHEW!  Was it full!  Let’s start first with The Biggest Loser.  Can you say WEEPY????!!!!  To watch Ron walk an entire marathon with his health issues was phenominal.  In past seasons, there has always been 1 or 2 finalists that I despise in the final 4.  I must admit, this season I don’t despise any of them.  Tara (green team) is not my favorite.  But I have actually grown to like her a little bit.  Helen (pink team) is an inspiration!  And the father/son brown team (Mike and Ron) - what can I say.  So COOL!  I hope Ron’s other son joins the next Biggest Loser season.  That would be so cool!  So, in the final weigh-in, Mike and Ron both fell below the yellow line.  This means that America had to vote for either Mike or Ron to be in the finale next Tuesday.  I hope they keep Mike (the son).  The voting closed on 5/6 and, since I only watched it today (5/10), I obviously missed my chance to vote.  I’ll be watching NBC10 on Tuesday night to see what happens FOR SURE!

Hell’s Kitchen - down to the final two.  Paula and Danny!  Again - no controversy for me here.  I really like both of them.  But I think I’m swaying more toward Danny.  Thursday night at 9pm on Fox.  I’ll be there!

Real Housewives of New York City - This season was unbelievable!  The final reunion show is coming up this week.  I simply DESPISE Kelly Killoren Bensimon (the new chick).  Seriously!  She is so, so, so, so full of herself.  And I read in a tabloid that The Countess is getting divorced.  Will this mean that she won’t REQUIRE everyone to call her Countess and bow to her???  And Simon - dear, dear Simon.  Is he the sixth housewife???  That guy drives me bonkers!!!  He’s so bizarre.  And I say BIZAHHHH as British as I possibly can.

Now I’m going to catch up on 18 episodes of “All My Children”.  Zac, Kendel, Erica, Adam, Little “A” and the gang.  Thank goodness for fast forward!!  WHEW!

Big week of season finales this week!  Gotta catch ‘em all!
