Here it is my favorite TV night, Sunday!! Tonight is significant for a few reasons. First it is the end of one of my favorite Sunday shows, Army Wives. I mean the series finale!! Then we are one week away from the end of another show I adore,Weeds. Last it was the season finale of Drop Dead Diva. This is quite a bit of emotional TV for one woman, considering I was up all Saturday night with Shark Swarm.
First Let Me Say, Good Bye Army Wives, and What The Hell Was That?
So I am sitting as the cast closes up the story lines. The soldiers of the 1st Brigade at Fort Marshall are getting ready to deploy again to Afghanistan. This time Joan (Wendy Davis) is bumped up in rank, so she is a commanding officer and is required to go with the soldiers. The gay couple Charlie (Ryan Michele Bath) and Nicole (Kelli Martin) who were recently married miraculously get Hector's (Joseph Julian Soria) baby to raise, just as Nicole is leaving on deployment. Roxy (Sally Pressman), Trevor/Drew Fuller) and family are safely in their van headed to Tacoma, Washington. The next scene is the plane carrying the soldiers is in bad weather, we go to General Michael Holden (Brian McNamara) who is answering the phone in his office, and the says, "OH My God". Then the series is over? It reminded of me when The Sopranos ended. With the fade to black. I am hoping this will mean there is a movie? Or they tell me What The Hell Happened? I just got to know!!
Let Her Have Greyson!!
Ok, so that was pretty good, but lets discuss Drop Dead Diva. Ok so we know Deb (Brook D'orsay) has been in Jane's (Brook Elliot) body for these 3 years. We know Greyson (Jackson Hurst) and Jane are really good friends. Jane pined over Greyson and then finally moved on with Owen. So Jane and Owen (Lex Medlin) are getting married tonight. We have real Jane in heaven, watching Deb/Jane these many years, ticked off that the "bimbo blonde" was turning her life into a train wreck. It seems when your body is kept alive with the intervention of another soul, in this case Deb Dobkins, you have permission to watch it from heaven. Jane is not happy and finds Deb/Jane's old guardian angel Fred (Ben Feldman), and like Deb presses the return button. Back to Deb/Jane who in her wedding dress which is caught on a nail. Greyson comes and they share a moment and a kiss. Then Greyson tells her he loves her, Owen walks in, goes into a cardiac episode, and upon waking says to Jane/Deb, "Where am I". It is at that time Jane realizes something has happened to Owen. It appears to me Owen is now the old Jane. That should make some great plot twists. So if Deb/ Jane marries Jane/Owen, does that make them lesbians? I am sooooo confused........That is where the series ends until the next season. Please TV writers, Let Jane Have Greyson! What a wacky plot, I actually think it is brilliant!!
Lastly, we are a week away from the series finale of Weeds. It is the end of an era. Carrying on after your man dies, is hard. Especially when you live in expensive Agrestic, California. It requires some creative thinking. The sunny life of the California suburbs paints a lovely picture. I love the contrast of a housewife selling weed to the neighbors to support her family. This begins the journey of Nancy Botwin (Mary- Louise Parker). We follow Nancy and her family from the burning of Agrestic (by the way Nancy's fault) to the California Coast. Nancy finds love again, marries a Mexican drug dealer/politician, and then has baby Stevie.
After Shane ( Alexander Gould---younger son of Judah) kills the drug dealers/politicians sister, Pillar (Kate Del Castillo), the Botwin's escape to Seattle. They journey across the USA all the way to prison, NYC and finally landing in Connecticut. We have watched her journey, her ability to survive, even thrive at times, and now it is almost over. This year Nancy has her feet in Connecticut, but has gone back to her roots in Regrestic, California (the rebirth of Agrestic). Ever being the entrepreneur, she has bought some land to grow marijuana. Nancy plans on legally distributing it in California. She is also mending fences with Guillermo (Guillermo Diaz) and Conrad (Romany Malco), drawing them in as partners the business. We have one more episode and I am dying to see what happens!!
