And I loved her observation of Raj&#8217;s and Howard&#8217;s &#8220;relationship&#8221; because it isn&#8217;t entirely unfounded if you have watched the previous episodes. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p><em>Two and a Half Men<\/em> 7&#215;11 <em>Warning, It&#8217;s Dirty<\/em><br \/>\nAnother great episode I enjoyed a lot. Too bad Charlie Sheen seems to be an entirely different personality in real life. \u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dvdcollectorsonline.com\/Smileys\/classic\/unsure.gif\" alt=\"Undecided\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>The Good Wife<\/em> 1&#215;10 <em>Lifeguard<\/em><br \/>\nI don&#8217;t really know what to think about this part of the American judical system: That every important position is decided by an election where not necessarily the more competent person wins but the more popular. Like they pointed out in this episode: She has a disadvantage with the voters because she has an English surname. WTF has the surname to do with the ability to be a good judge?!<br \/>\nBut the episode was really great. As I often pointed out I am normally not too much into here-and-now-realism shows, I like it a bit more &#8220;extravagant&#8221;. But every now and then I get drawn in by a show with a &#8220;normal&#8221; story and <em>The Good Wife<\/em> certainly belongs on this list.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Good Wife<\/em> 1&#215;11 <em>Infamy<\/em><br \/>\nAnother really good episode and argument about the First Amendment. I liked both cases and I am getting ever more curious what the case against her husband is really about. I also learned something new today, namely that the judge can overrule the jury&#8217;s verdict. Why then have a jury in the first place?<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><em>Cougar Town<\/em> 1&#215;10 <em>Mystery Man<\/em><br \/>\nIt was OK, but nothing exceptional. But the show keeps its general mood and I like that about it.<\/p>\n<p><em>Cougar Town<\/em> 1&#215;11 <em>Rhino Skin<\/em><br \/>\nIt just wasn&#8217;t the same. Yeah, it was cool to see &#8220;Phoebe&#8221; and &#8220;Monica&#8221; back together onscreen, but it just wasn&#8217;t <em>Friends<\/em>. Still this episode worked for me very well because of Travis and Andy. It was great to see Andy passing on his knowledge to the young grasshopper.<\/p>\n<p><em>Heroes<\/em> 4&#215;13 <em>Chapter Twelve &#8216;Upon This Rock&#8217;<\/em><br \/>\nThe show continues it&#8217;s quieter (than in previous years) path and I still think it&#8217;s fitting this year. This volume is called &#8220;Redemption&#8221; after all.<br \/>\nUnfortunately not many viewers agree with me, the ratings for these episodes have dropped again.<\/p>\n<p><em>Heroes<\/em> 4&#215;14 <em>Chapter Thirteen &#8216;Let It Bleed&#8217;<\/em><br \/>\nIt seems like Sylar has gotten a bit of the humanity of either Matt or Nathan (or both?) welded into his personality (my theory &#8211; they didn&#8217;t point in any way towards this). Now the question is whether this will help or hurt the character.<br \/>\nI still find myself enjoying the show because the characters behave coherent and comprehensible. And while the master plan is not yet revealed I have the feeling that it follows a defined path and isn&#8217;t &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/tvtropes.org\/pmwiki\/pmwiki.php\/Main\/DoctorWho\">like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey &#8230; stuff<\/a>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/199\/tv-season-20092010-diary-cw-01-02\">CW 01-02<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deutsche Version | CW 46-50 | CW 01-02 How I Met Your Mother 5&#215;11 Last Cigarette Ever I am soo glad I never started smoking&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1120],"tags":[1091,94,104,1093,1004,1122,1083],"class_list":["post-198","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-tv-season-2009-2010-diary","tag-cougar-town","tag-friends","tag-heroes","tag-how-i-met-your-mother","tag-the-big-bang-theory","tag-the-good-wife","tag-two-and-a-half-men"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=198"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2206,"href":"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198\/revisions\/2206"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=198"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=198"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/doena-journal.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=198"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
