The Vampire Diaries Season 1 Episode 10 Trailer
There are lots of new movies coming out in time for the holiday season. If you are looking for some big, dumb fun, I would suggest “2012.” If you want some political satire and humor, “The Men Who Stare At Goats.” If you want to be really depressed, see “The Road” or “Precious.” Any of those films are more deserving of your money than the three below which should be avoided like the plague.
1) Blind Side
Sandra Bullock plays real-life Leigh Anne Tuohy, an altruistic upper-class white lady who rescues a homeless black youth and invites him to live with her family. Teenager Michael Oher who is now a right tackle for the Baltimore Ravens is raised by Tuohy and her husband as their son. Maybe this sort of do-gooder, uplifting schlock is for your cup of tea, but you could not pay me to sit through this pandering, cliché story of a white charity. The big joke making the rounds is that Bullock will be up for an Oscar Nomination for her role in the film. And I thought giving the Best Picture to “Crash” was bad enough.
2) Old Dogs
I thought they already made this movie and it was called “Wild Hogs.” I don’t know who in their right mind has the desire to see John Travolta and Robin Williams ham it up in a PG rated Disney film where they take care of a couple seven-year old twins and their dog. I’m sure lots of hijinks ensure but at the end there is a valuable lesson about family. I don’t need to hear it.
3) Twilight Saga: New Moon
This shirtless-tease of a movie is pretty much softcore porn for teenage girls. It’s barely even a vampire story anymore when none of them drink any blood but just look moody and sad. The largely plotless sequel has lots of brooding vampires and werewolves running around the woods shirtless showing their man-headlights and then there’s something about a girl who loves one of the vampires for some unknown reason. Don’t give Stephanie Meyer anymore satisfaction and money and avoid this film.
Confused with what to get your little boy or girl this Christmas? What are Zhu Zhu Pets? Twilight dolls? What would make a good gift for my pre-schooler? While this list may not be able to answer every question you have, it will give you a good idea of what are the most sought after kids toys this holiday season.
Zhu Zhu Pets
What Are They? – Little motorized hamsters.
What Makes It Hot? – These little hamster zoom around, bump into things, make cute little sounds, then zoom off into different directions.
What Should I Look For? – The Zhu Zhu Pets Hamsters are the main attraction, but they also have many accessories (such as the hamster wheel and hamster ball) which, when combined, create a big hamster city for the little fur-balls to bounce around in.
Availability? – Scarce. These are the Tickle Me Elmo’s of 2009.
Transformers 2 Toys
What Are They? – Based on the blockbuster movie series about giant robots battling on earth.
What Makes It Hot? – Megan Fox and giant robot battles capture the imaginations of both small and big boys alike.
What Should I Look For? – Optimus Prime, any of the “Combiner” transformers robot sets, such as Devastator; also the ultra cool Transformers Movie 2 Ultimate Bumblebee which makes sounds, lights up, and moves around.
Availability? – Healthy; although some of the more sought after characters (Optimus Prime, Bumblebee) may be harder to find.
Twilight New Moon Dolls
What Are They? – The “other” hot movie franchise of 2009
What Makes It Hot? – Robert Pattinson and teenage vampire love capture the imaginations of both younger and older girls alike.
What Should I Look For? – Edward, Jacob, and Bella. The primary 3 characters featured on the Twilight New Moon movie posters (and every other piece of Twilight merchandise.)
Availability? – A few different lines exists for the Twilight fans; Specialty manufacturer Neca figures for the enthusiast, Tonner Doll Company dolls for the collector, and a Matell Barbie line for everyone! In order of easy to difficult to find: Barbie, Neca, Tonner.

What Makes It Hot? – Chuck speaks more than 40 phrases and sounds, while built in sensors make him drive over to your child when they call him!

Availability? – Healthy
Liv Fashion Dolls
What Are They? – Barbie dolls with an array of changeable styles included in the box.
What Makes It Hot? – Multiple points of articulation for a wide range of poses, interchangeable hair styles, and inset plastic, not painted, eyes for starters.

Availability? – Healthy
2009 Barbie Holiday Doll
What Is It? – A new special limited edition Barbie doll.

What Should I Look For? – Deluxe keepsake display packaging with a holiday twist.
Availability? – Healthy
Bakugan 7 in 1 Maxus Dragonoid
What Is It? – Transformers meets strategy card games with a dose of Japanese anime.
What Makes It Hot? – For any kid (or adult) that plays or watches Bakugan, the Maxus Dragonoid is a must have. 6 “traps” and one “warrior” combine to form a fearsome robot like creature not unlike the Transformers Devastator. The cool part is that both the combined form robot and it’s individual pieces can be used in the card game as well!
What Should I Look For? – A gigantic red Bakugan “robot” with a dragon’s head.
Availability? – Healthy

What Are They? – Big furry red gloves for toddlers.
What Makes It Hot? – The right handed glove vibrates when placed on any surface, causing a “tickle” effect.
What Should I Look For? – Big furry red gloves with Elmo’s face on it.

Apple iPod Touch
What Is It? – The latest, greatest iPod innovation from Apple.
What Makes It Hot? – Now with up to 64gb of storage space, the 3rd generation iTouch adds more room for music, movies, apps, and more.
What To Look For? – Classic iPod simplicity in touchscreen form.
Availability? – Healthy
Nintendo DSi
What Is It? – The next evolution of Nintendo’s premiere hand held video game system.

Here is List of 21 new TV Shows premiering in Fall 2009 TV Season in alphabetical order (all times are Central standard). These are the Best TV Shows to watch in 2009 and 2010. And, Here is the Complete TV Shows for Fall 2009 and Winter 2010,List, with a Full Description of each TV Show:
‘Accidentally on Purpose’ (CBS, Monday, 7:30p) is based on a book by Time movie critic Mary Pols but has many similarities to Judd Apatow’s movie ‘Knocked Up’. Both center on a successful career woman who has a one night stand with a young slacker and finds out she is pregnant. Hilarity ensures when she decides to keep both the baby and the slacker. Premieres September 21st.
‘The Beautiful Life: TBL’ (The CW, Wednesday, 8p), starring the recently troubled Mischa Barton (The O.C.), follows two young models as they navigate their way through the modeling and fashion business. The CW smartly paired the show with ‘America’s Next Top Model’ and should definitely capture the young female viewer. The question remains however, what’s up with the TBL initials? Premieres September 16th.
‘Brothers’ (FOX, Friday, 7p) stars retired NFL star Michael Strahan as (shocker!) a retired NFL player returning home to help care for his family. The cast is well-known; Strahan’s dad is played by Carl Weathers (Rocky), his mom by CCH Pounder (The Shield, ER), and his brother by Darryl “Chill” Mitchell (Ed). In addition, the show is produced by Don Reo (My Wife and Kids) who knows his way around a comedy. The cast and producer are pluses for the show, but FOX didn’t do the program any favors by pairing it with the aptly titled comedy ”Til Death’. Perhaps low expectations will produce a second season? Premieres September 25th.
‘The Cleveland Show’ (FOX, Sunday, 7:30p) is a spin-off of ‘Family Guy’ that follows Peter’s friend Cleveland as he and son Cleveland Jr. relocate from Maine to Virginia so Cleveland can be with his high school love Donna, a recent divorcee. FOX has already ordered a second season of ‘The Cleveland Show’ from creator Seth MacFarlane so they are either planning on audiences loving the show or a quick turnaround from DVD sales. Premieres September 27th.
‘Community’ (NBC, Thursday, 8:30p), starring Chevy Chase, is about the faculty and students at a community college. The series is holding down the slot normally occupied by ’30 Rock’, which isn’t debuting until October 15th, and will then move to 7p replacing a short run of ‘Saturday Night Live: Weekend Update’ specials. While the previews and promos contain lots of laughs, they seem to be the only ones. It could be a failing grade for ‘Community’. Premieres September 17th.
‘Cougar Town’ (ABC, Wednesday, 8:30p), starring Courteney Cox, is about exactly what everyone imagines – a 40ish woman looking for love, and the misadventures that ensue, with mostly younger men. Cox is also exec producing the show with her husband, David Arquette, and Bill Lawrence, the creator of ‘Scrubs’. Premieres September 23rd.
‘Eastwick’ (ABC, Wednesday, 9p), starring Rebecca Romijn (Ugly Betty) and Lindsay Price (Lipstick Jungle), is an adaptation of John Updike’s novel The Witches of Eastwick and will follow the adventures of the three ladies; imagine ‘Desperate Housewives’ with magic. Premieres September 23rd.
‘FlashForward’ (ABC, Thursday, 7p) is a high concept drama that tells the story of how several people deal with seeing their future during a worldwide 2 minute and 17 second blackout. This show could be another ‘Lost’ but it is worth checking out as there is a lot of talent both in front (Joseph Fiennes, Shakespeare in Love; Dominic Monaghan & Sonya Walger, Lost) and behind (David S. Goyer, Batman Begins) the camera. Premieres September 24th.
‘The Forgotten’ (ABC, Tuesday, 9p) starring Christian Slater, trying not to be ‘My Own Worst Enemy’, is about a group of detectives working cases involving unidentified victims, i.e. the forgotten. The series sounds similar to most of CBS’ lineup (Cold Case, CSI, Numb3rs) and is following the results show of ‘Dancing with the Stars’ so it should have a good chance of sticking around. Premieres September 22nd.
‘Glee’ (FOX, Wednesday, 8p), created by Ryan Murphy (Nip/Tuck), is about a high school glee club and their teacher. FOX has been building the buzz on this series since last spring and the show is a favorite of many critics. There are musical numbers and guest stars planned as well as soundtracks to be released. This show should open strong; the question will be if it can keep its audience throughout the season? Premieres September 9th.
‘The Good Wife’ (CBS, Tuesday, 9p), starring Julianna Margulies and Chris Noth, is about a wife whose politician husband is sent to jail because of his seedy activities, think Eliot Spitzer. She must then resume her job as an attorney while holding her family together. With Margulies and Noth, as well as Christine Baranski and Josh Charles, this series has first rate talent and is on TV’s #1 network. As long as it can balance the humor and drama, CBS should have another winner on its hands. Premieres September 22nd.
‘Hank’ (ABC, Wednesday, 7p), starring Kelsey Grammer, is about a Wall Street exec that is downsized and returns with his family to his small hometown to start over. Grammer and co-star David Koechner (Anchorman) are comedy veterans but this series has had whispers of troubles and bad reviews. With the pilot being reshot, hopefully the series can rebound and start fresh. Premieres September 30th.
‘The Jay Leno Show’ (NBC, Monday-Friday, 9p) is Jay’s version of ‘The Tonight Show’ complete with guests and comedy. Premieres September 14th.
‘Melrose Place’ (The CW, Tuesday, 8p) is looking to replicate the success of its first incarnation by doing many of the same things. Hot bad girl like Heather Locklear? Check. Sweet naive couple like Josie Bissett and Thomas Calabro? Check. Smoldering hunk like Grant Show? Check. Add to that a season-long murder mystery involving a Melrose returning favorite and some sexy preview posters, and The CW definitely is creating some buzz. Now, is it any good? Premieres September 8th.
‘Mercy’ (NBC, Wednesday, 7p) centers on the trials and tribulations of three nurses, two veterans and one newbie, as they try to keep the doctors from killing the patients. Nurses are the rage recently (Nurse Jackie, HawthoRNe); it will be interesting to see if this show follows the trend. Previously tabbed as a midseason series, ‘Mercy’ was bumped up due to Maura Tierney’s illness delaying her new series ‘Parenthood’. Premieres September 23rd.
‘The Middle’ (ABC, Wednesday, 7:30p), starring Patricia Heaton and Neil Flynn (the janitor from Scrubs), almost seems like a ‘Malcolm in the Middle’ reboot. Heaton plays the wacky mom of a family living in Indiana where crazy problems arise and crazier solutions are developed. Premieres September 30th.
‘Modern Family’ (ABC, Wednesday, 8p), starring Ed O’Neill (Married… with Children) and Julie Bowen (Ed, Lost), takes an ‘Office’-like documentary approach to examining three different families. O’Neill is an older man married to a younger woman, Bowen has the “perfect” family, and a gay couple raising a baby are the trio of families the series will follow. The previews have been hilarious, but will this comedy survive in the middle of a new lineup? Premieres September 23rd.
‘NCIS: Los Angeles’ (CBS, Tuesday, 8p) actually began last season as a two episode cross-over with ‘NCIS’; that snippet was successful enough to give the series life this season. Chris O’Donnell and LL Cool J play Special Agents that specialize in undercover work. In addition, Academy Award winner Linda Hunt has joined the cast to assist with the technology angle, like “Q” for James Bond. Premieres September 22nd.
‘Three Rivers’ (CBS, Sunday, 8p) is yet another medical-themed show that stars Alex O’Loughlin (Moonlight) as one of three doctors working with transplant patients. Each episode of the program will show the transplant process from three points of view: doctor, transplant donor, and transplant patient. This procedural approach to the hospital drama should work well and it will be a shock if ‘Three Rivers’ isn’t this year’s ‘The Mentalist’. Premieres October 4th.
‘Trauma’ (NBC, Monday, 8p) is about a group of EMTs in the field dealing with large-scale accidents and uh, traumas. Most of the cast is fairly unknown; Derek Luke (Antwone Fisher) and Jamey Sheridan (Law & Order) are probably the most recognizable. Overall, the show seems like NBC’s cancelled ‘ER’ except with more explosions. Premieres September 28th.
‘Vampire Diaries’ (The CW, Thursday, 7p) is a television series looking to capitalize on the hottest new trend – vampires. Based on a series of books by L.J. Smith and exec produced by Kevin Williamson (Scream, Dawson’s Creek), the series will follow the high school love triangle that exists between a human girl and two vampire brothers. The series is definitely more ‘Twilight’ than ‘True Blood’. Premieres September 10th.

The second season of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation consolidates the show’s well-deserved popular appeal, while beginning to explore (gently at first) beneath the slickly professional surface of the investigators themselves. Gradually we learn more about what makes Grissom and his astonishingly gifted forensics team tick, beyond merely that they are workaholics who seem to require no sleep at all. The show’s trademark reveals of vital evidence–be it on the autopsy slab or under the microscope–add a fresh spin to what is, at heart, a good old-fashioned whodunit series. William Petersen brings the requisite air of antiquarianism to a character whose meticulous demeanor and love of order consciously inherits the mantle of Sherlock Holmes (whose vast collection of tobacco samples and bottles of chemicals are the ancestors of CSI‘s high-tech crime lab). This is a series in which scientific evidence-gathering is elevated to the status of a religion. “When a tree falls in the forest, even if no one is around to hear, it does make a sound,” affirms Grissom with the calm assurance of a yogi on the path to Enlightenment.
And just when CSI starts to seem a little too pat, just when the trail of clues seems a little too neat, the show always seems able to throw a surprise or two at us: perhaps there has been no crime after all; perhaps the evidence concerns a completely different crime altogether; or perhaps, as in one brave episode concerning brothers implicated in multiple murders, the evidence simply isn’t good enough to convict the right man, even when Grissom knows which one really is guilty. As a result, every episode is simply compulsive viewing. –Mark Walker
