Three Finales and a Premiere

For my final blog for this class, Communications 112, I will be talking about the finales and premieres of my favorite shows. It’s that time of the year when a few of my favorite shows come to an end. Grey’s Anatomy’s two hour season finale is this week Thursday. In the final episode Izzie spends time with a fellow cancer patient and contemplates whether or not to undergo a risky surgery, as Mark wants to take his relationship with Lexie to the next level. My other favorite show, Desperate Housewives, will come to its finale next week on Sunday. In tonight’s show, Bree hides her true intentions from Orson, Susan and Jackson put on an act for the authorities, and Dave is on edge when a key witness to his misdeeds surfaces. We won’t know what the season finale is about until tonight after the show.
After being sad that my shows are ending, I can be happy again because my summer show: The Secret Life of an American Teenager will premiere again on Monday, June 22nd! A lot of you have probably heard about the show but if not…Amy and Ben are just your normal high school couple, except she's having a baby which is not his. Super-Christian Grace thought she and Jack were for keeps, but then he cheated on her with wild-child Adrian Lee. This threw Grace into the arms of bad-boy Ricky who happens to be the father of Amy's baby. As secrets and scandals begin to surface at Grant High, with they bring the students and their families together - or tear them apart? The season premiere begins with Ben dropping by to kiss Amy goodnight, but as soon as the kiss ends, the fight begins. Turns out Ricky's visiting John, and Ben's not happy with that. Or with anything, all of a sudden. See for yourself on June 22nd. I can’t wait!

Death on Wisteria Lane

For those of you who don’t know, Wisteria Lane is the street on which all the housewives of Desperate Housewives live on. Also, where almost everything on the show takes place. A few weeks ago we saw the beautiful blonde housewife, Edie, of the show get into a car accident, but that episode had ended at that point and we had to wait till last Sunday to know if she lives or not. Turns out Edie Britt dies from being electrocuted after running into the telephone pole after swerving, so she wouldn’t hit Orson Hodge who happened to be in the middle of the road after being chased out of some old lady’s house. What really is surprising to me is that she was the one to die. I thought maybe the old lady would die, but not Edie who practically makes everything in the show more interesting! This leads me to believe that she either wanted off the show or maybe they just wanted to get rid of her? I don’t know, but I want to because she was one of the six housewives! I don’t think I will even be able to watch it anymore without wondering why it was her that had to go! Things like this make me wonder why these actors actually got killed off the show or moved or whatever it is that they make happen to get the character off there. Do they just want to move on in their career? Did they do something wrong? It just makes me wonder! So I did some research and found this on aceshowbiz.com! Here’s what it said : “Sheridan is taking her departure from the show with her head held up high. "I'm OK with leaving," the actress said. "I'm on to the next project and done with this show." Her co-star Eva Longoria meanwhile, is not so keen on the idea. "I love her so much as a person, and I love the character of Edie Britt, that I can't imagine the show without her," Eva told Extra. No clue yet of what 'new project' Sheridan will take but Longoria said, "She's looking forward to new adventures, and she's a star, so she's going to go on to great things."”
