Tuesday, April 24

On this date in 1885, Annie Oakley, the world’s best known female sharpshooter, was hired to be a part of Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show.

The Biggest Loser (NBC 8pm) Eliminated contestants return to compete in a four-part challenge; the third finalist is revealed.

Have you guys noticed that as the contestants lose weight, the episodes get shorter? That’s what I call solidarity!

Glee (Fox 8pm) The club pays homage to Whitney Houston.

I’m actually mildly impressed that it took them this long to jump on the mourning-Whitney bandwagon.

Dancing With the Stars (ABC 9pm) The couples face elimination; Boyz II Men perform.

Motownphilly’s back again, indeed.

The Voice (Fox 9pm) The contestants face elimination.

The results week episode descriptions for this show volunteer absolutely no extraneous information. It’s like they’re worried about violating HIPPA or something.

Doomsday Preppers (The National Geographic Channel 9pm) The five basic principles while preparing for a cataclysmic event are food, shelter, safety, evacuation, and practice.

I don’t have nearly enough hubris to believe that, in the case of a cataclysmic event, I will have survived long enough to need to worry about food, shelter, safety, or evacuation, so I’m not going to practice.

Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files (SyFy 9pm) Episode: Bay Area Hysteria; Jersey Shore — Investigation into a mysterious hovering light over the waters of Bodega Bay.

I can pretty much guarantee you that any mysterious hovering lights over the Jersey Shore are a result of luminol reacting with all of the semen stains in the Jersey Shore house.

Dance Moms: Miami (Lifetime 10pm) Angel and Victor create a powerful group number based on the dancers’ uncertainties; Brigette and Susan side with Abby and turn on Debi.

I’m pretty sure Debi can take ‘em.

16 and Pregnant (MTV 10pm) A mother disapproves of an interracial couple.

The good news is that once their MTV money has run out, I’m sure Jerry Springer will be happy to have them on his show.

Best Ink (Oxygen 10pm) The artists must ink portraits of their client’s loved ones; one artist breaks down about the permanent effect of their work.

Did s/he only just now realize that tattoos are forever?

Dream Machines (SyFy 10pm) The brothers design a unique build for the Susan G. Komen for the Cure charity auction and a motorized version of The Green Machine.

For all of those grown-ups who were missing the ergonomic design and smooth handling of their childhood Hot Wheels.

What will you be watching tonight?

About

After giving birth to her fourth child, SuburBint carefully weighed the options and decided that recapping reality TV was probably a better choice in the long run than alcoholism. Liver function tests have yet to confirm the wisdom of this decision. Being an honest-to-goodness recapper is also a dream come true, as she has aspired to do this ever since discovering that such a thing existed way back in 2002.

Her favorite shows of all time include Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Coupling, Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy, Firefly, Community, Parks and Recreation, Doctor Who, and Veronica Mars. She can also quote The Big Lebowski in its entirety, and will do so with little to no provocation.

    Oh, Doomsday Preppers! Evacuation. That’s quaint. If you’re not already IN the country, you’ll die in a traffic jam, probably honking your horn like a complete fucktard, just like everybody else.

    There are three must-have items in case of cataclysm: shotgun shells, canned cling peaches, and women. Shotgun shells because, duh! Canned peaches because they will become the post-apocalyptic currency. (See The Road, and every war movie ever made. People dig canned peaches.) And women, because you they help keep you warm through the nuclear winter, their fingers are dexterous and clever in fixing things, and if your peaches or shotgun shells run out, women will fetch quite a bundle in the ruins of most cities.

    Maybe for Girls With Guns day we should have picked a person on each show we want to see shot….

    I got a present in the mail today :D Thank you! And it REALLY IS SHINY. I put it on the refrigerator.

    I’m not tellin’ what it is so I don’t ruin it for the next person.

    Many thanks.

    Hee! When I promise shiny, I deliver shiny! You are very welcome.

    Comment contests are no joke, folks. Cattyfan can attest to the worthwhile-ness of participating.

    How come no Annie Oakley quotes?

    Strangely enough, all of the Annie Oakley quotes I could find had to do with shooting. Well, that and one about her obituary being printed accidentally, and then there was one about how much sitting still sucks, and I couldn’t relate to that one at all. I did briefly flirt with the idea of finding quotes from Annie Get Your Gun but that sounded like a heck of a lot of work. Geez, SSC. Give a girl a break!
