Why I Love Mondays...

1) It's a chance to revisit some TV Series I've passed, on first viewing; to realize that... yes, it can be lovelier the second time around....

THE CLASS Heather Goldenhersh as Lina Warbler, Sean Maguire as Kyle Lendo, Andrea Anders as Nicolle Allen, Jon Bernthal as Duncan Carmello, Jason Ritter as Ethan Hass, Lizzy Caplan as Kat Warbler, Jesse Tyler Ferguson as Richie Welch and Lucy Punch as Holly Ellenbogen star in a story about a group of twenty-something's who are forever linked due to sharing the same third grade class. An impromptu reunion begins on the 20th anniversary of the day they all met -- and each is wondering if they'll have anything in common. (From AOL TV)

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER Jason Segel as Marshall, Alyson Hannigan as Lilly and Neil Patrick Harris as Barney star in a story about Ted Mosby (Josh Radnor) and how he fell in love. When Ted meets Robin, he is sure it is love at first sight, but destiny may have something else in store. The series is narrated through flashbacks from the future. (From AOL TV)


These are not two of the best comedies out there, but these shows can sure fill my Monday nights quite conveniently and adequately. Airs on ETC's 8:00 PM and 8:30 PM respectively.


2.) It's a chance to catch up on old favorites...

THE AMAZING RACE: ALL-STARS Eric, Danielle, Ozzy, Danny, Uchenna, Joyce, Drew, Kevin, Bill, Joe, Teri, Ian, David, Mary , John, Jill, Dustin, Kandice, Charla, Mirna, Amber and Rob star in a reality series in which teams of two, with a pre-existing relationship, race around the world.

FRASIER Kelsey Grammer ("Cheers") stars as Dr. Frasier Crane, a successful Boston psychiatrist who moved to Seattle to get a fresh start on life. He has his own radio talk show which he uses to relay his wit and wisdom for others. At times, he struggles with his own neuroses from his family and friends, though often he does not take his own advice. This half-hour comedy showcases the humourous ways Frasier deals with life and how his family and friends follow suit. (From AOL TV)

TAR airs on Studio 23 at 8:45ish, and at AXN at around 9PM and next week is the season finale. While I am completely spoiled as to who will win it *Eric & Danielle* the final race to the finish is almost always the best part of the show.

Frasier airs on Star World at 9:30PM. You gotta love the Cranes!


3.) My guilty pleasure...

If I were to base on last night's episode alone, I would have to give Pinoy Big Brother a special award for superb editing. They were able to humanize a housemate gone crazy. By the end of the show, I was in tears.

This video though, made by another avid viewer, had me laughing.
