Phil Dunphy Best Quote of the Week:

By Phil Dunphy on Modern Family´s Halloween Episode:

In this episode, Claire needs the family’s help to run Halloween smoothly at their house. Jay and Manny have fun at Gloria’s expense, and the holiday brings back painful memories for Cameron.

Here´s the context: Next door neighbor tells Phil his wife just left him, and that´s when Phil Dunphy at his best says to the “Mockumentary camera”:

When someone your age dies, what´s the first thing you want to know? Died of what? Right? You wanna hear it´s something that can never happen to you. Well, the same thing is with divorce. Tell me it was booze, cheating, physical abuse. No problem, I´m a monogamous social drinker and Claire only sleep hits me.

Phil Dunphy Quote: Where are you going?
Claire Dunphy: I’m going to pick up Luke from his sleepover. We need to talk to him about this now.
Phil Dunphy: Claire, this is a very delicate situation. If we don’t handle it right, Luke might end up having an unhealthy attitude about sex. Or agribusiness.

Claire Dunphy: Okay, I checked the rest of the computers in the house – I didn’t find any more porn.
Phil Dunphy Quote: That was hardly porn – it was a topless woman on a tractor. You know what they call that in Europe? A cereal commercial.

[Starts to leave the room]

Phil Dunphy: Well, it was a woman on a tractor, and she had her shirt off.
Luke Dunphy: Was it hot?
Phil Dunphy: Okay, we’re being honest here. Umm… this particular woman – well, my tastes do run to the curvy, and the cowboy had did not hurt one bit. Couple that with the cut-off jeans – and you were asking about the weather, weren’t you?

Phil Dunphy Quote: What’cha got there?
Claire Dunphy: These are supplies for the crafts table. I finally figured out what we’re gonna be making.
Phil Dunphy: Kids bored?

My friends at Masters in Healthcare prepared a great article about 10 Classic TV Doctors,  and one must agree.

They asked for my opinion, and what I will do is just re arrange a bit that Top Ten Classic TV Doctors in my eyes.

Let´s start.

Top 10 Classic TV Doctors – Who´s your favourite doctor on TV

10- Leonard “Bones” McCoy (DeForrest Kelley, “Star Trek”)

leonard mccoy top ten tv doctors star trek daforrest kelley“He’s dead, Jim.” Leonard McCoy was a staple of the original “Star Trek” TV series and later film franchise, known for his dry humor and comic pessimism. He even put in an appearance in the pilot episode of “Star Trek: The Next Generation.”

His tagline “I’m a doctor, not a…” has been quoted in almost every incarnation of “Star Trek” (1966) on film and television.

He once said: “I’d wanted to become a doctor and couldn’t ~ yet became the best known doctor in the galaxy”

So, for that I put Doctor McCoy on the tenth spot on TV Classic Doctors top ten.

9- Marcus Welby (Robert Young, “Marcus Welby, M.D.”)

The show is about doctors Marcus Welby, a general practitioner and Steven Kiley, Welby’s young assistant. The two try to treat people as individuals in an age of specialized medicine and uncaring doctors.

Watch this Marcus Welby video and know wgy he Made the Top 10 Classic TV Doctors list.

Glee Spoiler: Kurt´s boyfriend will be on the football team

glee spoiler kurt boyfriend football teamOk, Glee fans.

This is a long waiting spoiler… Everybody is waiting to get to see Kurt on a relationship, and in a few more episodes you´ll be able to.

Kurt is getting a boyfriend on Glee.

According to Michael Ausiello in an Interview with Ryan Murphy: Kurt’s gonna get lucky. “We just announced we’re doing a nationwide search for the season 2 cast, and [a boyfriend for Kurt in Glee is] one of the three roles that we’re adding. And we’re going to make them a power couple. We’re not going to do the whole hiding in the shadows thing. We’re going to make them popular, and out and proud and glamorous. Like prom king and king. We’re doing the opposite of what’s been done.” But wait, there’s more: “We’re also casting sort of a Eve Harrington [from All About Eve] to kind of steal Rachel’s thunder a little. So those are two of the three.”

And later on, it leaked that Kurt´s boyfriend on Glee will be on the football team.

Nip Tuck Spoiler: Is Kimber dead? Is Kimber Alive?

We know it´s the final season of Nip Tuck, and everyone´s game at this point… whatever can happen.

And in the last minutes of the latest episode of Nip Tuck we saw Kimber take a dive.

What will happen to her? Is Kimber Alive? Is Kimber Dead on Nip Tuck?

Do not keep reading if you want to avoid this big Nip Tuck spoiler.

Well… the truth is Kimber dies on Nip Tuck!

So, no more Kimber for us fans.

Also, folks at EW did an awesome interview with Kelly Carlson, the actress who portrayes Kimber.

A decoy script was passed around that had Kimber surviving the jump. How did you find out that she was actually dead?

KELLY CARLSON: One of our writers told me. The truth is that Kimber was just supposed to be in the first episode, so this character wasn’t completely created before I got there. We all did it together. So Kimber is very close to my heart because I feel so responsible for creating her – just as much as anyone else. But truthfully, the show is ending, so I was totally fine (Laughs). But it’s still sad because I love her, and that character is very special to me.

How do Christian and Sean react to Kimber death on Nip Tuck?

CARLSON: I wasn’t so concerned about Kimber and Sean because that’s just one of the affairs that always happens on Nip/Tuck. But with Christian, I know it deeply disturbed him, and he had some regrets. You’ll see him go through that process. And then the storyline immediately following with Melanie Griffith as my mother – I don’t know if I can say, but I’m telling you – he has an affair with her to find closure with Kimber. Kind of like a forgiveness coming from her mother.

jennifer-morrison-cameron leaving house divorce chaseWe already said Jennifer Morrison was leaving House MD, we already said Chase and Cameron were getting divorced, we already said Taub and Thirteen wer coming back to the team on House.

Now it´s time to hear it from Jennifer Morrison herself, what she thinks about Cameron leaving House.

In an interview with Michael Ausiello she said:

“I don’t know anything about anything,” she said. “That’s the thing. Everyone expects me to have an answer and there’s no answer to have because there’s… no answer.”

Emotionally speaking, Morrison said she hasn’t “packed [Cameron] away” yet.

“I have always said I love our writers,” she added. “I think David Shore is incredibly talented. All of the characters he’s created I’ve loved. And I think are amazing. I think he’s very committed to keeping the characters’ stories authentic.”

Asked whether she felt her own storyline felt authentic, Morrison said, “I’m not writing the show but I do think that [David] is an authentic writer.”

Morrison said she’s been comforted by the enormous outpouring of support from fans in the wake of her House dismissal. “I love the fans,” she enthused. “Honestly, I have to say one of the most amazing things that’s come out of this job is how incredible the fans have been and how supportive they’ve been. I never could have imagined asking for a more amazing group of people and I’m so thankful for their support.”

So, are you happy Cameron left House?

Mega Dexter Spoiler: Is Frank Lundy Dead?

is frank lundy deadWe already predicted someone was dying on Dexter. Well… every episode someone does so that´s not a big surprise. But this time who´s on the line? Frank Lundy himself. Keith Carradine´s character got shot at the end of the episode.

So… is Frank Lundy dead on Dexter?

It´s not likely. But anything could happen. It´s too early on the season to have him gone instead of chasing a bit more Trinity, but… you never know.

He´s way too big a character as to die now, but it will surely be a week cliffhanger for us Dexter fans to wait and see if Frank Lundy is dead or not.

My bet? He´s not.

Do you think Frank Lundy is dead on Dexter? Or do you think Frank Lundy lives? And what about Deb… Is Debra Morgan dead on Dexter?

Mega Dexter Spoiler: Is Debra Morgan Dead?

is debra morgan dead on dexterWe already predicted someone was dying on Dexter. Well… every episode someone does so that´s not a big surprise. But this time who´s on the line? Debra Morgan herself. Jennifer Carpenter, Michael C Hall wife´s character got shot at the end of the episode.

So… is Debra Morgan dead on Dexter?

It´s not likely.

She´s way too big a character as to die now, but it will surely be a week cliffhanger for us Dexter fans to wait and see if Debra Morgan is dead or not.

My bet? She´s not.

Do you think Debra Morgan is dead on Dexter? Or do you think Debra Morgan lives?

Dexter Mega Spoiler: Is Masuka dying this season on Dexter?

vince masuka dying on dexterJohn Lithgow is joining the fourth Season of Dexter, and his character is planning to make a big impact.

This year´s villain John Lithgow will take the life of a very significant member of the show is what rumours are saying.

My bet: Vince Masuka is dying on Dexter.

Why?: Batista is currently BFF of Dexter, and… oh well, you´ll see it in the season premiere of Dexter.

Maria Laguerta is his boss, and oh well… you´ll see it on season premiere of Dexter why neither Batista nor Laguerta will go anywhere.

Debra Morgan can´t die… she´s on the tracks of finding out the truth about her father, and who was the lover… too much going on for her to leave… oh and there´s certain someone coming back to the show.

Dexter is having a kid, so the whole family is already going through major plot turns, there´s no need for another one there.

Quinn: Here´s my fifty fifty… it´s either Masuka dying, or Quinn dying on Dexter. Being my bet Masuka…

Who is Vince Masuka on Dexter?

Vincent “Vince” Masuka is the Miami Metro Police lead forensic investigator and works alongside Dexter in the lab and in crime scenes. He often cracks innuendo to the rest of the team, and harbors decidedly unrequited feelings for Debra. He is portrayed as unusually perverted, and is familiar with many sexual topics. It was because of this Frank Lundy preferred to have Dexter work with him, stating “If I hear one more titty joke, I’m afraid I’ll punch him in the face.” However, he has been able to tone it down when the situation calls for it, like when Angel was in the hospital. Detective Joey Quinn even confronted him about that in stating that is the reason no one likes to be around him, only for Vince to harshly brush him off. However, he seems to accept Joey’s explanation when no one came to his speech on his newly published work, cleaning up his act and dressing formally (which freaks out Debra) until he returns to his old self at the end of the episode. In the books, Dexter feels a kinship with him as, like him, he hides who he really is. As in the novel, he sets up Dexter’s Bachelor Party and kidnaps him to get him there (where, in the belief that he had been kidnapped by the Skinner, Dexter slugged Vince in the eye just as he opened the car trunk). However, he falls for the female Party Planner and has been suggested they are still in a relationship. In the novels, he is Dexter’s best friend, or rather the closest Dexter could have to a friend. Vince feels the same for him, as in Dearly Devoted Dexter he threw a large bachelor party for Dexter within a few hours of finding out his engagement and in Dexter in the Dark took his role as best man so seriously that he was often nervous and called in favors to hire Manny Borque, a famous caterer, for Dexter’s wedding.
