House Season 7 Episode 11 - Family Practice

Candice Bergen once again returns as Cuddy's mom, but this time she's the patient. Having seen previous episodes with Cuddy's mom, we all know she's incredibly difficult, and even more so now that she's sick. Because this case is so dear to Cuddy, she gets too involved, and House must be House and solve this case any way he can. Since House is well...House, he bends the rules to the point of unethical. Cuddy finally says just do anything, but don't tell her. Cuddy's mom finds out and kicks House off the case, but that doesn't stop House. House decides to change her meds without her knowing, but only makes her sicker. After all the morality that was being played here, it turns out it was her metal hip that was causing the problem from being degraded. The issue with Dr. Taub and his wife's brother was not very interesting at all. 8/10

How I Met Your Mother Season 6 Episode 15 - Oh Honey

This episode was cute, and also guest starred Katy Perry as Dr. Cameron's (Zoe) incredibly naive cousin. Having seen Dr. Cameron (Zoe) in a few episodes previously, you knew her and Ted would get together at least some point...and this episode is it. After an incident with a broken ketchup bottle, Ted realizes he loves Dr. Cameron (Zoe), but can no longer see her because she's with The Captain (who Marshall brilliantly calls Colonel Mustard). Dr. Cameron (Zoe) tries to set up Ted with her naive cousin, but eventually Ted choses not to go home with her (Barney of course does). Having heard this from Barney, Dr. Cameron (Zoe) now knows she loves Ted. After two quick phone calls from Marshall, Ted and Dr. Cameron (Zoe) kiss and get together. 8.5/10

Chuck Season 4 Episode 14 - Seduction Impossible

If you've never seen Chuck, you probably won't like it, having not started from the beginning. But since I have, Chuck is great. This ep doesn't really have much going on in it, John Larroquette is back in this ep, but could have not been here. He gets involved with some chick military group printing counterfeit $100 bills. Chuck, Sarah and Casey must go rescue him. The mission was kind of boring here, a couple people got killed, the bad guy loses and everything is great at the end. I just like the chemistry between Chuck and Sarah, who were fighting because Sarah wanted to elope instead of having a wedding. They make up and all is well. The new baby for Awesome and Ellie is *shrug*, but it's nice to see his mom back in their lives after taking down Volkoff. 7.5/10

Castle Season 3 Episode 14 - Lucky Stiff

I love mystery shows and Castle is no exception. Another ep, another dead body/murder. This time, it's a guy who won $100 million in the lottery, who also had an English butler. Typical trail of find the clues, etc...but one scene that was really good, was when Dr. Beckett was in the club with Castle, trying to get the drug dealer to sell her drugs, she looked oh so hot there. The drug dealer tells them that he saw the butler right before the murder..."Finally, the butler did it!" Well not quite, as obvious as that sounds, it wasn't the butler. It of course was the next person after the butler we see, who turned out to be the dead guy's neighbor's son. This ep also brings up an excellent question, if you won the lottery, what would you do? 8/10
