Television Shout-Outs


CASTLE FINALE
You know how you can tell when you and your friends are on the same wavelength? When you have the following conversation by text:
F1: Did you see the Castle finale?
F2: OMG!
F1: Right?!
F2: Seriously!
F1: OMG!
F2: I miss that.
And even though no specifics were given, you both know exactly what you are talking about in great, sigh-worthy detail.
 
 
FANS OF THE X-FILES ARE TV WRITERS
I’m on to you guys. I know there are at least three really big fans ofTHE X-FILES currently working as writers on television shows. Why?
  • LAST WEEK’S AWAKE CONTAINED A SCENE DEDICATED TO WATCHING A MARATHON OF THE X-FILES.
  • THIS WEEK’S SUBURGATORY HAD MORE THAN ONE REFERENCE, INCLUDING A SCENE (WHICH WAS HYSTERICAL) INVOLVING DALLAS YELLING “KISS HER! WHY DOESN’T HE KISS HER?” AT MULDER WHILE THE THEME SONG PLAYED IN THE BACKGROUND.
  • THIS WEEK’S DON’T TRUST THE B—- IN APARTMENT 23 INCLUDED A SCENE WHERE THE OBSESSED NEIGHBOR PAYS TO WATCH THE X-FILES WITH HER “FRIEND” CHLOE.
These are magic, and they make me laugh. Keep them coming, folks! Someday, I hope to join your ranks and add my own shout-outs to that wonderful world.
 
 
 
It’s almost Friday. You can do it. Take a deep breath. Take another one. The weekend is very nearly here. Escape is imminent.
