“Shark Tank” Star Loses It, Curses Out Contestant (ABC)
Random Thoughts…
- Awww…my heart…the end of last night’s “Game of Thrones” was just too much. I’ll never go through a doorway the same way again.
- I had to watch the Britney Spears performance at the Billboard Music Awards a few times to get over my grief.
- Loving “Preacher.” Get in on this one early.
- I might be done with “Silicon Valley.” Richard is just too stupid.

Things Get Heated During a Debate on “The View” (ABC)
Random Thoughts…
- Attention “Orphan Black” fans: Stay away from the Internet if you have not watched last night’s episode yet. Seriously.
- Actually, I’m going to issue a similar warning to “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Blacklist” fans. Quite a night last night.
- I watched a lot of trailers during this week’s Upfronts and the one that has me the most psyched is “Designated Survivor.” Check it out.
- Talked to the new “Survivor” champion yesterday morning and she shed some light on her contentious Tribal run-in with Neal.

Cute Kid Has Harsh Words for Donald Trump (“The Late Show”)
Random Thoughts…
- Checked out the Turner Upfronts yesterday and the William-Shakespeare-as-a-young-man drama “Will” looks like a good time despite the unoriginal name.
- A lot of people upset with last night’s “Survivor” winner. But it doesn’t have to be about who made bigger moves, a good social game can go a long way.
- A marriage and a death on “Empire” last night. Gotta love finale season!
- I still say ‘Blackish’ is the best comedy on TV today. Last night’s ’70s was another awesome feather in their cap.

Jimmy Fallon and Lonely Island Perform a Randy Song with Kids’ Instruments (“The Tonight Show”)
Random Thoughts…
- Caught the NBC Upfronts in New York yesterday, and I’m really looking forward to “Timeless.” As in, I need my own time machine to jump to this fall to watch it.
- FOX had a presentation too and I think the new high-tech cop show “APB” looked really cool. Between that and their girl-group show “Star,” they could have a good year.
- In other news, I have no fingernails on either hand due to how nervous I was about the “Castle” finale.

A Foster Cat Saves a Baby’s Life (“My Cat from Heaven”)
Random Thoughts…
- It was so weird to see two of the Stark kids together last night on “Game of Thrones.” I got a little misty.
- Drake did a good job on “Saturday Night Live” despite a clunky monologue song.
- Even more shows got the axe on Friday. Can’t say I’ll miss any of them though.

Singer Meghan Trainor Wipes Out During Performance (“Tonight Show”)

- Which eliminated show was your fave? Let me know on Twitter: @gordonholmes
- Fortunately for both of you “Galavant” fans, it looks like the show is going to become a stage production.
- How about that kiss on “Grey’s Anatomy”? Didn’t see that one coming.

Daughter Reveals Dad’s Embarrassing Secret on National TV (“Late Late Show”)
Random Thoughts…
- Why is everyone so mean to Bumper in “Pitch Perfect 2”? The Trebles haven’t won anything since he left.
- Rough end to “Survivor” last night when a player was pulled from the game due to a medical issue. You hate to see that.
- There’s no way last night’s “Empire” shocker is going to stick. Just have Melisandre bring the character back.
- Who are you pulling for in tomorrow’s “Amazing Race” finale? Drop me a line on Twitter and let me know.

Their Kid Is a Celebrity. Can You Guess Which One Based on Their Clues? (“Jimmy Kimmel Live”)
Random Thoughts…
- Max Greenfield’s Schmidt is one of my favorite characters on TV. I’ll admit I got a little misty during his wedding last night on “New Girl.”
- Still loving “The Night Manager.” There’s time to catch up and join me. Join me……
- “Survivor” is quietly having one of its best seasons ever. And as usual a good season is the result of interesting players, not big twists.
- “Chrisley Knows Best” finally returned last night. The show grows on you. Be careful.

An Embarrassing Sign Outside of a Planet Fitness (“The Tonight Show”)
Random Thoughts…
- Finally caught up on “The Amazing Race.” Sheri and Cole are adorable, and I like watching Dana and Matt fight, but the only satisfying winners are Tyler and Korey.
- Quite a cliffhanger on “Bates Motel” last night. But if it goes the way it looks like it’s going, what’re they going to do next season? (How’s that for vague?)
- You can be eliminated the same night you get a perfect score? “Dancing with the Stars” can be cold.
