Zach Morris is back

…on Jimmy Fallon earlier this month.

Bayside, Mr. Belding, good times.

I forgot about Zach’s ‘time outs’ until he did it during the interview. It’s like no time has passed, Mark Paul looks eerily the same as Zach. Is there really a possible Saved by the Bell reunion in the works? The interview runs about 8 minutes. Cue theme music!

15 pounds of pure bunny — Charlie Crews

Ah, show, first you had the shortened first season because of the writer’s strike (but it still rocked). Then you got rid of Robin Weigert and I wasn’t that keen on Donal Logue’s character joining the cast either. Sarah Shahi’s pregnancy came along midseason and you had to bring on Gabrielle Reece as Charlie’s new partner. Despite the unevenness, you were still a great show. The last episode surprised me a bit, but if Charlie and Dani belong together I’m okay with that. Charlie looking up at the sun, the barely touching hands during the exchange and 1+1 = 1 was such a poignant series ending. Thank you for bringing Damian Lewis and Sarah Shahi together on our screens. I doubt it’ll happen, but could NBC please release both seasons on dvd with all the original broadcast music intact?

On the flip side, I did not really get into Little Dorrit on PBS/Masterpiece. This non(Dickens) reader was confused at the end – I thought Amy and Arthur were half siblings. But then they married so that obviously wasn’t right.

Some tv things

Tonight Little Dorrit begins. I go in clueless not having read the book, but I was pleasantly surprised how addictive I found Bleak House, so maybe this will be the same vein. Clocks in at 8 hours over the next few weeks and features Matthew Macfadyen among the ensemble cast. [PBS Masterpiece]

Conspiracy walls, charts, et cetera
Now Chuck has one. Love that it’s on the back of a poster in his room to help him figure out how to get the Intersect out of his head.

It reminded me of these other instances:
On Alias, there was Vaughn’s massive SD/Alliance chart.

This is about the killing the monster, not just cutting the arm off of the monster.

[from Spy Caps]

On Life, Charlie Crews has a conspiracy wall/room, which has already gone through a rehaul this season and is housed in a walk-in closet.

Project Runway Canada, top 4

We were down to the top four contestants on Project Runway Canada and they did the ‘bring back a previous contestant to compete’ thing with a variation. They brought back the previous two kicked-off contestants, Genevieve and Jason. Being a team challenge, two contestants or one team would be out in this round. I haven’t seen every season of the American PR, but is this the first time the returning contestant(s) actually stayed? Poor Adejoke was robbed because of the team format. I got a chuckle out of their ‘trip’ being camping, not Paris like someone was hoping for.

Project Runway Canada starts next week

prcpromo

Project Runway Canada season two debuts Tuesday, January 27 at 10pm on Global. I enjoyed the first season. That first challenge, giving everybody a box of the same materials to work with, I don’t think I’ve seen done on the American version (haven’t seen all the seasons though so I could be wrong).
