Of course, the one week I need to take off is the same week the season finales start to air and the networks hold their upfronts. More on the latter later this week, but I can at least write a bit about the former. What to do when I’m so far behind that I have no hope of writing real posts on each show? TV haiku, of course!
Supernatural
Sadly, it turns out
My ESP is broken:
Dean did go to hell
Survivor
Which is more shocking,
The final vote, or the fact
The show is still on?
The Office
Did you cringe or laugh?
All hour, I couldn’t choose.
The season’s best ep.
America’s Next Top Model
The plus-sized girl wins!
This would only matter if
She won a career.
And a few bonus ones, for shows that kicked off their finales with the first of a two- or three-parter.
Lost
Oceanic Six
Clearly shown, though I still think
The baby’s a cheat.
House
Great mystery, but
Why did the show stoop to use
A cheap strip club scene?
Bones
Stalkers and Idols
And Eighties karaoke
Hard to go wrong there.
Your turn to 5-7-5 the last week of television.

I can’t Haiku, but felt the same about the baby on Lost. I’m sure they just couldn’t figure out who else it should be so picked him to be an official member at the last minute. Humph.

I cannot BELIEVE you just spoiled me for ANTM. Bah!

Did you not SEE the “season finale” in the title? It’s basic reading comprehension, woman!
I was spoiled when I visited TWoP the day after the show aired and saw the winner loudly announced on the front page. (I promptly took the site off my bookmarks in impotent protest.) Perhaps it is a chain of spoilage? Find someone else to spoil, fast!
