Tuesday, April 27th, was the premiere episode of the final season of "The Hills". I will be recapping the end of the phenomenon that began in 2006.
The first part of the episode was Lo Bosworth and Stephanie Pratt discussing all of the plastic surgery procedures that their friend Heidi Montag has had done. Heidi tells her husband Spencer Pratt that she is going to visit her family in Colorado. Spencer wants to come with her, but her family doesn't like him.
The episode flipped back and forth between Miami, FL and Crested Butte, CO. In Colorado, Heidi and her sister Holly met with her mom to talk about the procedures she had done. Her mom thinks she looked better before, and Heidi is upset about that.
In Florida, Lo, Stephanie, Audrina Patridge and Kristin Cavallari are on vacation. Kristin's ex-boyfriend, Brody Jenner, is flirting with Audrina and Audrina is a bit concerned about that since she knows Kristin still has feelings for him. They go out to a club and Brody continues to hit on Audrina, and Audrina is still uncomfortable with it so she, Lo, and Stephanie leave, and Kristin stays out and doesn't come home until the next morning.
Back in Colorado, Heidi and her family go out to dinner and her mom, Darlene, still continues to object to the work Heidi had done. Heidi breaks down in tears, but her stepfather is there to comfort her.
In Florida, Lo, Stephanie and Audrina talk with Kristin about just staying at the hotel for the night since Kristin isn't feeling well. Kristin agrees to it, and she leaves the room. Lo, Audrina and Stephanie are concerned that Kristin may be doing drugs. She stays out all night, her voice is raspy and she's just not doing well. Later that night, the trio waits around for Kristin, only to find that she went out again.
The day the group leaves to go back to Los Angeles, they discuss Kristin's potential drug use more. Kristin overhears them and confronts them about it, and denies she has a problem, and calls out Stephanie for just assuming it was true, since Stephanie has a history of alcohol abuse. The trio leaves, and Kristin stays behind for a little bit, then follows them.
Heidi bids farewell to her family and they drive her back to the airport so she can go back home to LA.
This upcoming season of The Hills looks very intense and dramatic. Who knows how it will end. The first episode was a good start to the season. Plenty of drama to go around.

Any man of mine better walk the line, better show me a teasin', squeezin', pleasin' kinda time.
Here is my recap of "Survivor" one day late.
After the stunning move Parvati made at the last Tribal Council, Russell confronts her about it and feels that his alliance is falling apart.
The next day, Russell talks to Candice about joining the Villains' alliance, thinking she is the best bet to flip her loyalties. She agrees to flip to their side.
The Reward Challenge is won by the team of Colby, Amanda and Danielle. While on their reward, Danielle discovers a clue to a new Hidden Immunity Idol. Amanda sees her try to hide it and the two fight over it, until Colby tells Amanda to give the clue back to Danielle, which she does.
When the trio returns from their reward, Danielle shares the clue with her alliance and tells them that Amanda and her fought over it. Russell and Danielle go to find the Idol, and Russell finds it and keeps it a secret from his alliance, but shows it to Candice to secure her loyalty.
Sandra tells Rupert that she is on the outside of the Villains alliance and wants to flip over to their side. Rupert believes her and they plot to vote out Russell.
The Immunity Challenge is won by Jerri, securing her first Immunity win in all of the seasons that she's been on Survivor. Sandra and the Heroes plot to vote out Russell, but then change their mind when they figure out that Danielle might have the Immunity Idol and wouldn't give it to anyone. They then decide to vote out Parvati. Russell tells Candice he wants to vote for Amanda because she is a great stratigest, and Candice agrees to vote for her. She also tells Russell that the Heroes are plotting to vote him out. Russell confronts Sandra about it and Sandra confronts Candice about what she said.
At Tribal Council, the issues of trust among the Villains' alliance are discussed, and it is revealed that there are cracks in that alliance. Before the votes are read, Russell plays the Immunity Idol, but for naught since no votes were cast against him. Candice and Sandra stick to the Villains' side to vote out Amanda 6-3. Amanda has always been one of my all-time favorites. She's made it to the end twice, and now she gets to be on the other side of the game as a jury member. Peace out Amanda, love you.
Saturday is a rebroadcast of Saturday Night Live that I have written about, but May 8th is a new episode. Tuesday is a new episode of The Hills, and my next post will be about the premiere episode.

Take these words and sing out loud, cuz everyone is forgiven now, cuz tonight's the night the world begins again
Last night was Survivor. It was a fairly good episode. I will write about it as best as I can remember.
The Heroes recieve a box in their Treemail and are told to wait for the key, which leads them to believe a merge is coming. The Villains recieve a key and a map to the Heroes' camp, which also leads them to believe a merge is coming. They go to the Heroes' camp, they unlock the box and it is revealed that they are now merged. They decide to name their tribe Yin Yang, based on the good and evil sides.
Russell explains to J.T. why Parvati is still there, and he relays it to the rest of the Heroes. But Sandra pulls her old "Pearl Islands" ally, Rupert, aside and tells him the truth. He believes her, and tries to tell the tribe her story, but nobody believes him, as Sandra is a part of the Villains' tribe as well. They decide to tell Russell that they are voting for Parvati, but in reality vote for one of the other Villains. Russell gives Parvati his immunity idol to keep her safe.
Amanda realigns with her ally from Micronesia, Parvati, and Parvati tells her she has a Hidden Immunity Idol. They agree to trust each other.
The first individual Immunity Challenge is won by Danielle after Parvati voluntarily steps off. The Heroes decide to vote for either Sandra or Jerri, believing one of them is less likely to have the idol, while the Villains conspire to vote for J.T. for voluntarily giving Russell his idol.
At Tribal Council, the Heroes and Villains discuss the atmosphere at the camp, where tribe lines still appear to be divided. Before the votes are read, Parvati pulls out her two immunity idols, gives one to Sandra and one to Jerri. The Heroes' votes against Jerri are negated, leaving only the Villains' votes for J.T., who ends up being voted out 5-0. I loved J.T. his first season on, but this season he made a stupid mistake in giving Russell his idol. But I still love him and wish him all the luck in the world. Peace out J.T.
This Saturday is a new Saturday Night Live, with host Gabourey Sidibe and musical guest MGMT. I will do my best to write about that, along with this week's 2 episodes of "16 and Pregnant" (one of which I need to re-watch), and the season premiere of "The Hills".

We're goin' up, we're goin' down, we're goin' up, down, down, up, any way you wanna let it roll.
Last night was a special episode of Saturday Night Live: a documentary about the show during the 2000's. The special was called "SNL in the 2000's: Time and Again".
The documentary covered many aspects of the show, including the 2000 and 2008 presidential elections, September 2001, the anthrax scare, cast members, how the women have kind of taken over the show with cast members such as Rachel Dratch, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Maya Rudoph, and now current cast member Kristen Wiig, the SNL Digital Shorts, and knowing when you're pushing the limit in sketches.
People who talked in the documentary included executive producer Lorne Michaels, producers Marci Klien and Michael Shoemaker, past hosts Alec Baldwin and Justin Timberlake, former cast members Rachel Dratch, Horatio Sanz, Tina Fey, Jimmy Fallon, Darrell Hammond, Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Will Ferrell and Chris Parnell, writers Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, and current cast members Bobby Moynihan, Abby Elliott, Bill Hader, Seth Meyers, Andy Samberg, Kristen Wiig, Fred Armisen, Kenan Thompson and Jason Sudeikis.
I think this was a fairly good documentary. Having been a fan of SNL since November 2009, it was interesting to watch how SNL has changed over the course of the last decade. I know I will continue to watch it for years to come, and my dream is to see it live in New York one day. That will be a dream come true.
The new episode is this coming Saturday, with host Ryan Phillippe and musical guest Ke$ha. That recap will come on Monday if not earlier. I'm excited to watch it.

We can't go on together with suspicious minds, and we can't build our dreams on suspicious minds.
My Survivor recap is one day late, but I figured better late than never.
After the Villains' Tribal Council, Sandra talks about the vote and how her plan to get rid of Coach played out well.
Prior to the Reward Challenge, the tribes are asked to rank the tribe from strongest member to weakest member. This would determine the match-ups at the challenge. The Villains break the Heroes' winning streak and win a feast from Outback Steakhouse. While on the reward, Parvati discovers a clue to a new Hidden Immunity Idol at the camp. She shares the clue with Danielle while keeping Russell out of the loop.
Back at the Heroes' camp, J.T. is convinced that there is a womens' alliance on the Villains side, and decides to give the Hidden Immunity Idol to Russell to save himself should the Heroes win the Immunity Challenge. Amanda and Candice are a little skeptical about it, and rightfully so. J.T. writes a note to Russell about the Idol.
On the Villains' side, Parvati and Danielle search for the Hidden Immunity Idol and find it without Russell knowing. They decide to keep it for themselves and not tell Russell about it.
Before the end of the Immunity Challenge, Colby tells Russell to go talk to J.T. after the challenge, where he would give Russell the idol. The Heroes never lost the lead that they had gained in the challenge and won Immunity for the 3rd consecutive time. J.T. gives Russell the Idol and the Heroes return to camp.
At the Villains' camp, Courtney and Sandra know that one of them is going tonight. Russell shares the Immunity Idol with Parvati and they laugh about the note that J.T. wrote. Parvati and Courtney talk about trying to keep Courtney in the game, and Parvati talks to her alliance of Russell, Jerri, and Danielle about who to vote, saying Courtney would be more likely to stay loyal to them come the merge.
At Tribal Council, Danielle and Sandra argue about trust in the game, because Sandra is not part of the majority alliance. In the end, the votes are cast, and Courtney, the sassy waitress from New York, becomes the second member of the jury in a 5-1 vote. I watched Courtney's first season on youtube. Based on some things I had heard about her, I was prepared not to like her, but after watching her I loved her. Her sassy comments will be sorely missed as they provided comic relief to my Thursday nights. Peace out Courtney, you'll always have a light in my life.
Saturday Night Live is a new episode this Saturday, but in a few minutes, I am going to write a special SNL post about a special about the show that I watched last night.

Wise men say only fools rush in, but I can't help falling in love with you.
My 16 and Pregnant recap is 2 days late, so my memory may be a bit fuzzy now, but here you go.
Tuesday's episode featured Lizzie, a 17-year-old high school senior and aspiring musician from Smithfield, VA who aspires to play in the Virginia Orchestra. She and her boyfriend Skyler have been dating for 8 months when she gets pregnant. After learning she is pregnant, she decides to do homeschooling.
Her mom is supportive of her pregnancy, but her dad is a little less warm to the idea. Skyler asks him for permission to propose to Lizzie, which he grants. He proposes to Lizzie and she says yes. At her baby shower, her father reveals that she has graduated from homeschooling and is now going to enroll in college. Following her shower, Lizzie learns that her boyfriend cheated on her at prom. She breaks off the engagement with him, but later they reconcile. She isn't ready to put her ring back on yet, but they are back together.
In January, Lizzie gives birth to a girl that she names Summer Jayde. She enrolls in college to become an ultrasound technician, but ultimately realizes her first job is to be a mom to Summer. Skyler helps out as much as he can. She drops out of school and plans to start a program for medical filing.
I liked that both Lizzie and Skyler were committed to the baby and willing to make sacrifices for her. It was a very good episode where both parents were active.
Next week is going to be a double-header. First, the season finale, which features a girl named Kailyn, and the reunion with Dr. Drew Pinsky. I will recap both of those next week.
Tonight is Survivor. You will get that recap ASAP, and Saturday Night Live is a new episode, that will most likely come on Monday. I still have to write about last week's episode, and I will do that as soon as I can.
Love y'all,

One thing I can tell you is you got to be free, come together right now over me.
Just a quick update for you guys:
My internet access at home for my laptop is currently disabled. So, until I can convince my stepdad to give me the code for the wireless, or until I move out of my house, which I hope will be very soon, updates on TV shows will come one or two days late. And if I find any other videos to share with you guys, they will be up then as well.
I will re-watch the Saturday Night Live skits from the previous episode and write about them here when I do. I may re-watch 16 and Pregnant and Survivor before I write about them. And, starting April 27th, I am going to write about "The Hills". It is in its final season, so I figure I may as well write about the end of an era that began 4 years ago.
Just thought I'd update this letting you know my situation.
Love y'all,

Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box, they tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe.
Tomorrow night is a new episode of Saturday Night Live. In honor of that, I'm going to share some of my favorite skits from past episodes. They will include monologues, Digital Shorts, sketches, and maybe a cold open as well.
The first skit comes from Charles Barkley's episode, first aired on January 9th, 2010. Andy Samberg was the highlight of the skit. He had very good lines in this.
I like this one because it was really hilarious. Andy always seems to do that for me.
This next skit is from Blake Lively's episode, originally aired on December 5th, 2009. This was her opening monologue:
I loved the fact that the cast members played Muppets, since I've always been a Muppet girl.
The next video is from Taylor Swift's episode, first aired November 7th, 2009. This was the final skit of the night, and a great way to end the show.
this skit was funny because of all the songs. My friend Alexis pointed out that a lot of the singers in it were kind of ending their careers.
This next video may look a little familiar to you! This is the Digital Short from Jude Law's episode, first aired on March 13th, 2010.
This song from The Lonely Island is my jam. You can hear the audience reaction in this one as well.
This video had me re-watching it over and over again for weeks. This is the Digital Short from James Franco's episode, originally aired December 19th, 2009. After telling my friend about this one, I had him watch it..........you'll see what happens.
This video went from being sweet to WHAT THE FREAKIN' HELL IS THIS!?!?!? within 2 minutes. And that's an example of my sense of humor.
This next one is the Digital Short from Joseph Gordon-Levitt's episode, originally aired on November 21st, 2009.
I'm always jamming out to this song. Basically anything that Andy Samberg sings I jam out to. Since I love him.
This next skit is also from Taylor Swift's episode. One of the ones I loved dearly.
when this episode originally aired, I was doing live Tweeting with my friend Alexis, and she said Taylor played the teen with headgear well. She had great lines in this, as did Jason Sudeikis.
This one is also from James Franco's episode. Probably one of my favorite skits this season.
I love it when Andy plays the straight man. One of the comments on NBC's site also said "Andy can teach me the birthing process any day". I agree with that...........anything that comes out of his mouth makes me smile.
this was funny because he ran through a night in the life of his run as Hamlet on Broadway, and he mentioned his last episode.
This next one is from Sigourney Weaver's episode, originally aired on January 16th, 2010.
this was one of my favorite skits of the night, and I really hope Riley becomes a recurring character.
This skit is also from Taylor Swift's episode, my favorite skit of that night.
I love when Andy plays the straight man role, and he does so in this skit as a foil to Nasim Pedrad and Taylor's comedic characters. My sister and I act this out all the time.
This next video is the Digital Short from Jon Hamm's episode, first aired on January 30th, 2010.
Andy again plays the straight man role here, and is effectively freaked out. The ending is kind of gross, but it was still a good skit.
This next one was a portion from Weekend Update during January Jones' episode, first aired November 14th, 2009.
After re-watching this over and over again, I perfected my imitation of Nasim doing Kim Kardashian. I can do it really well.
This one is also from Weekend Update, from Sigourney Weaver's episode.
in this one, you can see Seth Meyers's comedic genius come out. He's amazing.
Finally, this portion of Weekend Update is from Zach Galifianakis's episode, originally aired March 6th, 2010.
I never knew Will Forte could be really funny. This song was stuck in my head all week, and now it's gonna be stuck there the rest of my life.
There you have it! I hope I could provide some comic relief to your night. Hopefully I'll have more to share with you after tomorrow's episode.

in this one, you can see Seth Meyers's comedic genius come out. He's amazing.
Finally, this portion of Weekend Update is from Zach Galifianakis's episode, originally aired March 6th, 2010.
I never knew Will Forte could be really funny. This song was stuck in my head all week, and now it's gonna be stuck there the rest of my life.
There you have it! I hope I could provide some comic relief to your night. Hopefully I'll have more to share with you after tomorrow's episode.
Love y'all,

Waits at the window, wearing a face that she keeps in a jar by the door, who is it for?
I thought of a good idea for a new blog just from being online.
Since I am an avid fan of Survivor, I've done a few videos for it, and I've found other videos for Survivor contestants or that contestants are in, and I thought I'd share some of my favorites.
First, I'm gonna share a video that features my favorite contestant of last season. Brett Clouser finished 4th on "Survivor: Samoa". I've had the privilege to talk to him on Twitter, he's a sweetheart. This video was made by someone I'm subscribed to on youtube.
After I saw this video, it inspired me to make one of my own. Both the video I made and the one I posted above were posted by Brett on Twitter, so both of them got a lot of views that way. Mine is posted below:
.
Next, we have a video for another contestant of last season, Monica Padilla. This video was also done by the person who did the first video.
After last season ended, I made a video for the cast. It is very long, but I thought it worked out. That video is below:
I am also currently working on a video for the end of this season. It will take me all season to do since I update it every week (with who is voted off). That video will be posted in my final recap of the season.
The next video is one I made for the winner of last season, Natalie White. Since I really liked her the whole season and was happy that she won, I felt the need to throw together a video for her.
She'll be coming up again in another video. But first I have a few videos from this season as well. The first video idea came out of the blue. Amanda Kimmel has been one of my favorite contestants for awhile, so I made her a video.
After I made this video, I posted it on idolforums.com and got a request to do another one for a different contestant, Stephenie LaGrossa. She's one of my all-time favorite Survivors, so I agreed to do this one for my friend Chris.
This video (youtube disabled the embedding option) was very recently posted by the guy that did the videos for Monica and Brett. I loved this video a lot because it has a song that is dear to my heart. A very short video, but very sweet too.
Finally, a video I found just tonight, that also features last season's winner, Natalie White. She is an alum of the University of Central Arkansas, and did this promotion for the university. Last year's "American Idol" winner, Kris Allen, did one as well. Here is Natalie's:
There you have it! All the Survivor videos that I could find that I loved. Feel free to watch.

When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Tonight is Survivor. Based on the preview that I saw last week, the Villains tribe will spiral out of control.
First off, I must give a shout-out to my buddy Jason. He's a great guy, always listens, and he writes about Survivor too. If you want to read his blog, go here.
Now on Survivor. With Boston Rob out, Coach is worried that the Villains will fall apart, calling Russell a bully and singling out Jerri, his closest ally, for voting for Rob. Coach is hoping that the merge will come soon.
At the Heroes camp, J.T. finds the Hidden Immunity Idol and shares that he found it with the rest of the tribe. They all agree to use it at the merge against one of the Villains. Candice is unsure on what his motives are since he's the leader of the tribe. She aligns with Amanda and they decide to work together.
At the Villains' camp, Parvati uncovers a note to a challenge hinting at a merge, so the tribe brings all of their supplies.
The Reward Challenge is won by the Heroes by a nailbiter, and they win pizza to share with the tribe. Amanda knows they are still catching up, and J.T. knows that a couple of the Villains are on the outside, so they could sway them over to their side.
Back at the Villains' camp, Jerri is furious that they assumed there was a merge. Sandra and Jerri get in an argument about why Sandra and Courtney sat out the challenge, and Danielle and Coach get involved. After that argument, Sandra and Courtney hatch a plan to take Coach out so they do not get voted out at the next Tribal Council should the tribe lose the Immunity Challenge.
Coach talks with Courtney about playing the game. Coach didn't want to play the game without Tyson or Boston Rob. Russell and Sandra talk about voting out Coach. She spreads the lie that Coach is gunning for him and he bought the lie. He talks to Parvati about voting for Coach, the only other remaining male in the Villains tribe.
The Immunity Challenge is won by the Heroes for the second consecutive time after Courtney and Sandra slow the tribe down. Courtney sprains her ankle after the end of the challenge, but is able to walk back to her tribe with Parvati's help.
Knowing that they have to go to Tribal Council tonight, Coach knows he has to get rid of one of the weaker players, and decides to vote for Courtney. Danielle has second thoughts about voting out Coach and has an argument with Russell about it. In light of that, Russell changes his mind and wants to vote for Courtney. The Villains are still up in the air by the time they go to Tribal.
At Tribal Council, the issues of voting out Tyson and Boston Rob are brought up, as well as physicality are brought up. Courtney says a lot of the sassy one-liners that made me like her the first time around, and the votes are cast. Coach is voted out 4-3, and becomes the first member of the jury. He gives Jerri a farewell hug since they were in a strong alliance. Peace out to Coach. Some of his comments were a bit irritating.
Saturday is a new Saturday Night Live, with host Tina Fey and musical guest Justin Bieber. I will write about that, plus anything else that comes up that I feel is worth sharing.

I gotta find my place, I gotta hear my sound, don't care about the pain in front of me, cuz I'm just trying to be happy.
Tonight's 16 and Pregnant was a long episode. It was advertised as a "super-sized" episode, and it was 90 minutes long, as opposed to the normal 60 minutes.
Tonight's episode featured Leah, a cheerleader and incoming high school senior from Elkview, West Virginia, who learns she's having twins. She had only been with her boyfriend, Corey, for a month before she got pregnant.
She learns she is having fraternal twin girls. After her baby shower with her close-knit group of friends, she gets very sick and has some contractions. She goes to the hospital and stays for a few days. After her contractions die down, she is discharged, but ordered to bed rest until after the girls are born. She and Corey move in together.
6 weeks before her due date, Leah goes into labor. She had been staying with her mom for a few days to avoid arguing with Corey, but he comes to support her. She gives birth to twin girls that she names Aliannah and Aleeah. Three days after their birth, Leah is discharged, but the girls have to stay at the hospital for 3 weeks. When they can finally come home, Corey gets two jobs and Leah returns to school. She spends some time with her ex-boyfriend, Robbie, which doesn't sit well with Corey. They argue frequently over her spending time with him. Leah even pointed out that "jealousy will tear them apart".
She spends some time away from Corey, but asks for his continued help as she doesn't have a job. They finally break up after a heated argument over money. After that argument, Corey moves out of their apartment, leaving Leah to take care of the girls by herself. Her ex seemed to act weird around her after having the girls, so she decides not to get back together with him. While out with a friend one Valentine's Day, she learns Corey has started seeing another girl, and it really hurts her. By the end of the episode, Leah reveals that she and Corey still are not on the best of terms.
This was a very good episode. A lot of drama and tensions. Leah cared about her girls, but knew it was harder since there were two of them. Maybe she didn't have to argue with Corey as much, but it was still fun to watch.
Next week's episode features Lizzie, whose boyfriend proposes to her, but at some point they appear to break off the engagement. That should be a very interesting episode.
I might write another post later tonight. We'll see.
Love y'all,

As I walk this land with broken dreams, I have visions of many things. Love's happiness is just an illusion, filled with sadness and confusion.
Tonight is Survivor. Should be a good episode.
After the Villains' Tribal Council., Russell, Parvati and Danielle rejoiced in their victory of eliminating Tyson, while Boston Rob converses with his alliance. He is a little bit uncertain where Coach and Jerri stand.
Jerri talks with Russell and his alliance of two girls. She states that people are feeling a little depressed. Parvati and Jerri sort out their issues a bit. They're not the best of friends yet, but at least they're on friendly terms now.
Over on the Heroes' side, Rupert points out that Colby has to step up. Colby knows he has something to prove for the Heroes.
The Reward Challenge is won by the Heroes by a blowout after Colby manages to score 2 of the 3 goals and win a trip to a waterfall with food to eat. While on their reward, Candice discovers a clue to the Hidden Immunity Idol, which Amanda reads aloud, and J.T. decides they should all look for it together and use it amongst themselves.
Back at the Villains camp, Russell, Coach and Jerri talk about going to the finals together. Jerri reconfirms her alliance with Coach, and states that she doesn't trust Rob. Coach tells Jerri that he feels hurt that she supposedly trusts him and Russell equally. Jerri admits in a confessional that she knows that Russell is in it to win it, as is she, and that Coach is trying to be the "good guy" and that the "good guy" doesn't get far in the game.
At the Immunity Challenge, the Villains had an early lead, but Candice made up a lot of ground, and Amanda and J.T. quickly solved the puzzle for redemption for the Heroes, which means the Villains have to vote out another member.
After the Villains return to their camp, Russell points out that it was one of the most "pitiful" peformances of their tribe. He tells Boston Rob that either Courtney or Sandra has to go for being the weak links. Coach really wants to get rid of Courtney, but Rob wants to vote for Russell. Coach is ultimately torn on what to do. Rob and Jerri talk, and he told her to do whatever she needs to do to get far in the game.
At Tribal Council, Coach points out that losing Tyson severly hurt the tribe, and Rob agrees with it, while Russell and Danielle agree with him. Rob and Russell butt heads once again. Jerri is still unsure on what to do. The votes are cast, and Boston Rob is sent home by a vote of 4-3-1. He has always been one of the best to ever play the game and I've always liked him, since I saw him on The Amazing Race with his wife Amber. Peace out to you Boston Rob. You'll always be one of the greatest.
Next Saturday, "Saturday Night Live" is a rerun that I have written about already, but on April 10, it is a new episode. "16 and Pregnant" is on again on Tuesday, with Leah, a girl who is expecting twins. And then Survivor returns next Thursday, and the Villains seem to fall apart.
