Escape to Chimp Eden

Fridays, on Animal Planet.

If you love animals and are at all even slightly touched when you hear of someone dedicating their lives to save and protect animals while at the same time showing you how loving and entertaining those animals can be - this show is for you.

Check it out. Here are a few reasons why!







And here is a sneak peak at the show:

The show to watch...

In my opinion, the show to watch at the moment is Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles ("TSCC") because other than the usual paradox holes you get from a time travel television show or movie, TSCC continues to get better and better each week. I have not been disappointed in an episode yet.

Picture this - you are an 80s kid. You grew up knowing Governor Arnold S. simply as a mean, nasty (and then nasty but nice) cyborgenic machine from the future who said lines like, "I'll be back" or "Come with me if you want to live." Now you are in your late twenties or early thirties and there have been a rash of 80s remakes for television that just disappointed you over and over again. Do you really want to take the chance that some telivision mogul with a get-rich-quick idea of a television show will take yet another iconic movie and smash your heart to bits with it?

Well, this time you should take that chance because TSCC is not one of those television shows. TSCC is worth watching. In fact, the makers of this show are so in tuned with what true Terminator and T2: Judgement Day fans want that they even SKIPPED the third movie entirely and moved over it has if it never existed (which, to true fans - it really didn't).

I can promise you that this show gets better each week. For all you Lost fans who lamented over that carrot that promised more insight and more info each week but never delivered - TSCC is the answer to your prayers. There are answers provided each week. And now with the introduction of Brian Austin Green to the show (he is no longer your 90210 geek) things are gonna get really good. We are now getting glimpses into the future that gives us hints at the past - not only of what is going on in the show but what possibly went on behind the scenes way back during the first Terminator movie.

Now that more substance and background is added to the gun fights, fight scenes, running sequences, and apocalyptic shadow cast over the premise of the movies you actually have time to get to know John Conner and realize something: He sent his own father into the past knowing that he would die but knowing that he had to if the resistance was going to survive. You feel for him in a way you never got a chance to in the movies. The whole thing is....well, its KILLER (no pun intended) and I highly recommend it. And I am going to leave it there. I am not going to give anything else away.

Like I said: Worth Watching.

Homeless TV Junkie

I am a TV junkie with no home. What has happened? There was once a time when my TIVO hardrive was filled to capacity. There was once a time when I actually had to be picky over what shows to record. At the moment, and I do not lie or exaggerate, there are 5 - yes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 recordings on my TIVO. I am actually caught up every day.

The exciting part of my weeks are sandwiched in. Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles on Monday and then Pysch on Fridays. Everything else is crap, although I have high hopes that Lost will be worth it after almost a year hiatus (or whatever you want to call almost a year of no new episodes aired). Monk has lost its flare. Sci Fi cancelled SG1 and left me only with Atlantis, which I am about to give up on.

Where oh where has my TV gone? At least my husband has his XBOX to entertain him when there is a lack of entertainment on the networks. This leaves me, like I said, as a TV junkie with no home. I am sick of reality TV. I am not into American Idol anymore (you can thank the Sanjaya fiasco for that one). I don't care about models or runways. Grey's Anatomy came back for a minute and then has been repeats. The spin off to that show just sucks (putting it simply). What does that leave me? Two good shows....and the news?

Someone help me.
