Welcome Back, Welcome Back, Welcome Ba-a-ack
Kotter was about the only one that didn’t return last night. For more, on to Mile-a-Minute Comments, otherwise known as 60 words or so per show:
The OC: Welcome back, bitch! Good to revisit my two favorite counties – Orange and Atomic. I know we’re not supposed to talk about it, but regardless, nice to see that Ryan’s cage-fighting days are at an end. Fallout from Marissa’s death is gonna drag a bit, but I’ll hang in. Oh, and the pic is the best LifeSaver I ever got.
The Office: Welcome back from the misguided Dwight/Ryan episode. Too much. The show thrives on uncomfortable situations and bizarre interactions, but should stay rooted in reality. Give us more excruciating Carol-marriage-and-Pam-kiss-one-two punch of rejection. Or the inevitable Jim and Karen hookup. Or, you know, Michael’s continued racial insensitivity. But weird kidnap–y Deliverance overtones? Pass. Diwali, tho? Gold.
Gray’s Anatomy: Welcome back, Izzie – good to see your laser-like insight into shady patients hasn’t waned while you were baking. Nice solid episode– no $8.7 million check shocker, but good overall story arc progression what with Callie calling off George, Alex abandoning plastics, etc. And the weekly wacky surgery was only a woman with two uteruses – admirable restraint.
Smallville: Welcome back from the Phantom Zone, Clark. Too bad you brought evil Bow Wow back with you. Generally good mythology episode, made even better by the fact that the mismatched Lex & Lana relationship seems to be over. Not soon enough. But overall, this season’s basically on track thanks to the Green Arrow arc and Krypton history.
