Top 5 Thursday: TV Brothers

There have been some great TV show with some awesome brothers in it. Here are my five favourite on screen brothers.

5. Vincent and Johnny Chase in “Entourage”
Both actors, one more successful than the other, but they are inseparable.

4. Charlie and Alan Harper in “Two and a Half Men”
Charlie the ladies man and Alan the loser. Two brothers couldn’t be more different, they constantly mock each other and they hardly ever have a serious conversation.

3. Lucas and Nathan Scott in “One Tree Hill”
They hated each other in the beginning, because their douche of a dad kept them apart. But their bond was stronger and they became good friends and close brothers.

2. Michael Scofield and Lincoln Burrows in “Prison Break”
Michael made the ultimate sacrifice for his brother. He went to prison so he could get Lincoln out. Two strong brothers, one intelligent, one tough, together undefeatable.

1. Dean and Sam Winchester in “Supernatural”
Definitely the hottest brothers on screen and although they are very different, they are close and they would give their lives for eacht other. They actually did, a couple of times.

They Almost Made the Top 5: Peter and Nathan Petrelli in “Heroes”, Damon and Stefan Salvatore in “The Vampire Diaries”, Darryl and Merle Dixon in “The Walking Dead”

DVD Collection Update (7)

It's been a while since I did a DVD Collection update. But it has been my birthday las week and I ran into some great bargains. So some great purchases.

I wanted to get this collection for a while and I was super cheap this time. So all the episodes from "Monty Pyhton's Flying Circus" in one DVD box. This is such intelligent humor!

I bought this movie after seeing "Elysium", because both movies were directed by Neil Blomkamp. And I just wanted to own this beautiful steelbook.





Sorry that I don't have a picture yet, because I lend the box to my brother, but I finally got season six of "Sons of Anarchy". It's one of my favorite shows of the moment.

How long have I been waiting for this? This book is amazing and I already saw the movie. The book is better, but I really loved "Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close".

I'm most proud on this purchase. I walked passed this boxset so many times, but it was on sale and I just couldn't resist buying it. I love "Prison Break"> It Always made me nervous and I only watched the show once, so it's like experiencing for the first time all over again.

The next three Dvd's were gifts for my birthday. "Lady and the Tramp" is such an adorable movie. Eating spaghetti has never been the same.

And don't you just love "Up". Disney Always touches me right in the heart.

Both Disney Dvd's were from my brother and "Life of Pi" I got from my friends Irene and Evelien. I read the book, but haven't seen the movie yet. Very excited about it!

Best TV couples

Yes, I made another list. This time with my favorite TV couples. It was a little harder then I eventually thought it would be, but I managed. And it was a lot of fun to do. So many couples to choose from, but then I realized that some of them aren't actual couples yet. So I made another shorter list of characters that I want to end up together. Here they are, in random order:

Sara and Michael ("Prison Break"): They were meant to be together from the first time they met.

Izzie and Denny ("Grey's Anatomy"): They were so cute together, why did he have to die? I never liked Alex and Izzie together. I even liked her better when she was with George and that relationship was doomed to fail.

Jim and Pam ("The Office"): Great couple. It took them long enough to finally admit to their feelings, but they rule!

Lincoln and Sofia ("Prison Break"): We didn't get to see them having a relationship, untill the final episode, but they were perfect for each other.

Sylar and Elle ("Heroes"): Even evil people need love, right? They really spiced it up for each other. I liked this pair-up. She loved him so much that she died for him (actually because of him, but let's stay positive).

Nathan and Haley ("One Tree Hill"): I think this has been the most constant couple on TV. Yes, they have their problems, but they always end up together. Nathan and Haley are a match made in heaven.

Sawyer and Juliet ("Lost"): At first I didn't really like Juliet, so I never thought I would be happy to see them hook up. But when they did, I was! They were great together. She tamed him and made him want to be a better man. So sad when Juliet died (we actually saw Sawyer cry).

Susan and Mike ("Desperate Housewives"): They've been through a lot, but everyone knows that Susan and Mike are right for each other.

Chuck and Ned ("Pushing Daisies"): I just love them!

Dean and Jo ("Supernatural"): They realized what they felt for each other, they kissed and then..... Jo died. From the first episode Jo was in, I rooted for those two to hook up. And when it finally happens, they decide to kill off Jo. Poor Dean.

Brooke and Lucas ("One Tree Hill"): Lucas looks great on every woman's side, but I always liked him with Brooke. But him ending up with Peyton was also OK.

I wish they were couples:
Catherine and Nick ("CSI"): There has always been a lot of chemistry between those two. Why not make it happen?

Damon and Elena ("The Vampire Diaries"): I know, she's in love with the good brother, Stefan. But the tension between her and Damon is so much better.

Sawyer and Claire ("Lost"): With Juliet dead, Sawyer needs someone. Kate is bad for him, because she can't choose between Jack and Sawyer (easy choice for me) and with Claire being back... I always wanted them to be a couple, don't know why.

Prison (the final) Break

I saw the last episode of "Prison Break" this weekend. It's really sad that it had to end, I really loved that show. But I liked the final episode. Very exciting. I really tought Lincoln was going to die. He got shot and then his assumed mother Christina stuck her pump in his wound. That's not really nice is it. But Lincoln got to live (thank God). I really liked the fact that Sara shot Christina, because she sucked. Kellerman was actually the big hero of that episode, because he was the one that got them out and made them free men again. T-Bag going back to jail was also great. He's a weird and creepy man (alltough he seems very nice in real life). The last part of the episode was my favourite. Skipping four years we see what happened to all of them. Sara has a son, Michael; Lincoln and Sofia live together in Panama; LJ is back in school; Alex and Felicia are together; Sucre lives a happy life with his wife and daughter; T-Bag is in jail; Don Self is a vegetable. At the end we see Sara, Michael jr., Lincoln, Alex and Sucre standing in front of a grave; Michael Scofields grave..... Sad, but a very beautiful series ending. A great end to a great show. I'm gonna miss those guys.

TV characters that I love

I have my favourite movie characters, like I once stated. But I also have my favourite TV characters. Here they are:

# 10 Lynette Scavo (Felicity Huffman; Desperate Housewives): She's a hands-on mom, but she has her own way of dealing with her children. That's why she's so great!

# 9 Matt Parkman (Greg Grunberg; Heroes): I don't know why, but he has always been my favourite on the show. His ability can come in handy, but he struggles with it. When he found out that his wife was cheating on him.... how could she b#@%h.

# 8 Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller; Prison Break): Linc is my favourite, but Michael deserves a place in my top ten to. He's just brilliant and super smart.

# 7 Kate Austen (Evangeline Lilly; Lost): She's a kick ass chick. She has gotten a little softer now, but I love her anyway.

# 6 Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell; Prison Break): I know Scofield is the most popular one, but I loved Linc from the beginning. He's a real tough guy with a very big heart.

# 5 Jim Halpert (Jon Krasinski; The Office US): He's a funny guy, especially how he always messes with Dwight (the jello...OMG). And him and Pam are just a match made in heaven.

# 4 James 'Sawyer' Ford (Josh Holloway; Lost): He's the ultimate bad guy, but who would'nt wanna be stuck on a deserted island with him?

# 3 Nick Stokes (George Eads; CSI): My favourite CSI. He's smart, good with people, funny and extremely handsome. He's not the main reason I watch CSI, but without him it's just not the same.

# 2 Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl; Grey's Anatomy): I just love her, seriously. She makes me laugh and/ or cry every single episode and her storylines are very interesting.

# 1 Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles; Supernaturel): He's without a doubt the most handsome man ever, but Dean is far out amazing. He's cool, funny and sexy!

The ones that didn't make it to the top ten: Catherine Willows (Marg Helgenberger; CSI), Sara Tancredi (Sarah Wayne Callies; Prison Break), Peter Petrelli (Milo Ventimiglie; Heroes), Haley James (Bethany Joy Galeotti; One Tree Hill), George O'Malley (T.R. Knight; Grey's Anatomy) and Claire Bennett (Hayden Panettiere; Heroes).

Wanted

One of my favourite shows is "Prison Break". I hate the fact that it's going to end, but for now I can still watch 'em here in The Netherlands. This show is so exciting, it makes me nervous every single time. I made a wallpaper with my favourite characters. Here it is, hope you like it:



Don't you just love those guys???

Sexiest men on TV

Recently Simon Baker, from "The Mentalist" was named sexiest man on TV. Well sure, he's an attractive man, but I can think of ten better looking dudes on TV. For instance Josh Holloway, from "Lost", he's gorgeous. And George Eads, from "CSI". He was on the list tough. Just look at the picture and prove me wrong.... Jensen Ackles is maybe my favourite man on TV right now. He's the most handsome man I've ever seen. I said I could name ten so here are the other 7 guys I owe you: Jon Krasinski ("The Office US"), Jeffrey Dean Morgan ("Grey's Anatomy"), Wentworth Miller ("Prison Break"), Patrick Dempsey ("Grey's Anatomy"), Milo Ventmiglia ("Heroes"), Jeremy Piven ("Entourage") and Shawn Pyfrom ("Desperate Housewives"). I can go on like this.... So I really think those top tens TV Guide makes are overrated, because last year Patrick Dempsey was voted sexiest man on TV and now he isn't even in the top ten. Like he lost his sexy-ness all of a sudden. Ridiculous.
