Who's dying on Heroes?

Kristen from E! is reporting that a major male lead will be killed off in the next couple episodes in hopes to stir some water cooler buzz.

So who is it going to be?

The most positive buzz would come from killing Hiro. His character went from being the most important and powerful, where we see future Hiro as a super-samurai, to a clown with an 800 number.

Nathan would have the least impact. His character has died in every season already and he is already dead technically.

That leaves Peter, HRG, Sylar, or Parkman. Sylar is the best character but was the worst current story line. HRG is the last non-hero on the show but he is a shell of his former self. Come to think of it, every character on the show is worse than when it started. Smaller. Think about it. And don't even get me started on plot holes and character arcs abandoned.

This show is like a girl you fall for right away. There is a lot of flash and sizzle, but she cheats on you (season 1 finale). You then spend the next two years trying to forget while the relationship slowly deteriorates. If we just took a step back and got a little perspective, we would realize the show will never be what we wanted it to be. It is ruined.

This is what I want to be when I grow up.

Alan Sepinwal is a phenomenal TV writer. His blog, What's Alan Watching?, is fabulous. I encourage everyone to check it out. He has been blogging for a couple years, but more than that he has been a TV critic for a long time. He is currently at the Star Ledger.

He has a wicked episode by episode Wire recap.

How I Met Your Mother - Cat Funeral

HIMYM can throw some lame episodes out there. The show can fall into a rut. But the show can also have some amazing home run episodes that have you seriously cracking up. It can be funny and original. Last night was an A+ home run episode.

Marshall's song/photo montages alone require you laugh. Click here to see the best night ever song.

Ted is an after-thought and no one cared who the mother was. This was about the two couples dating each other and it was awesome. The cat sitting/cat funeral song is required listening. It was...dare I say...legen...wait for it...

Glee Tour?!?

I have to admit that Glee is starting to wear on me. It is feeling a little to plastic and I am finding myself waiting for the songs to be over. But I am in the minority as the show and the songs on it are huge.

Due to the success of the songs on iTunes and the expected sales of the upcoming soundtrack, it looks as though a Glee Tour is in the works.

Smallville - The Best Podcast out there

The guys over at Starkville's House of El run the absolute best Smallville podcast. I have been with Derek and Steve since an episode or two before Steve joined the show. I liked it so much I listened to some old episodes as well.

If you watch Smallville, this should be on your iPod.

Also, the best Smallville spoiler site out there is Kryptonsite, if you are into that sort of thing.

Curb - Eh, where was Seinfeld?

The problem with all the hype about the Seinfeld reunion business is that the episodes without it. They better be top notch, otherwise viewers may become anxious. This episode was good but felt a little flat, like the osso bucco from last night's episode.

On the other hand, Mary, Ted, and Bookman are great and LD shutting down the horrible singing of a little girl is hilarious.

The Office Wedding - Maid of the Mist

What a great hour of TV. I feel like the Office never intended this to be the show but it evolved into wanting to tug at your heartstrings as much as make you laugh. The Jim and Pam scenes were so great. I love to see that Michael is rubbing off on Jim like Dwight has rubbed off on Pam in previous seasons (secret number 2). I loved the montage of the wedding dance and the actual wedding, aboard the Maid of the Mist (Side note: I have done that ride twice, one of which was on my honeymoon!).

If you are one the dozen or so people who haven't seen the you tube video that the wedding dance was based on, click here.

The rest of the gang had a themselves a time.

Michael slept in the ice machine/vending room. But I do think he is going to bed Pam's mom.

Dwight is a playa! And his toothpaste is a butter and hay mixture.

Andy suffered a scrotum injury but moved ever closer to the new receptionist.

Finally, Kevin had shoe (and hair) issues, but managed to pull off the appearance of being Oscar's man.
