- 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.

A Raccoon and a Dog Become Best Friends (“Unlikely Animal Friends”)
Random Thoughts…
- I literally yelled at my TV last night when “Game of Thrones” decided to not show us all of the Tower of Joy scene.
- Brie Larson’s Baby Shower skit on “Saturday Night Live” was gold. Be sure to check it out below.
- I didn’t see that “Quantico” twist coming. But the way things are going with the show, I’m not sure if that twist won’t be twisted away.
- A rough night for “Once Upon a Time” fans. If you know one, be sure to give them a hug today.
- Loving the “Ocean’s Eleven” twist on this season’s “Silicon Valley.” Although, that ending might have been too dumb for such a smart show.

Mom Accidentally Makes Major Confession on National TV (‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’)
Random Thoughts…
- Finally caught up on “Silicon Valley” last night and…uh…I really could’ve done without that stable scene.
- So, this Alden Ehrenreich that was just cast as young Han Solo, why don’t they just cut him a deal for the inevitable “Indiana Jones” reboot?
- I was on the fence with “The Catch,” but I think I’m officially out. Keep me posted if it gets better.
- “Live, Die, Repeat: Edge of Tomorrow” is available On Demand. It’s the best movie that nobody ever talks about. Classic Cruise.

Jimmy Fallon Really Hates Chris Evans’ New Game (‘Tonight Show’)
Random Thoughts…
- Wow…so it looks like this Trump reality show got renewed through the fall. Fascinating.
- Last night’s “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” has me psyched and ready for “Captain America: Civil War” this weekend. Can…not…wait!
- What does my mother want for Mother’s Day? For me to use my TV editor power to get them to reboot “Murder She Wrote.” Please, if I had those powers “Community” would’ve never gone off the air.
- “New Girl” deserves more credit for really turning things around after a weak season or two.

 A Jack Russell Terrier and a Horse Become ‘Unlikely Best Friends’ (NatGeo Wild) |
Random Thoughts…
- “Don’t eat the help” has to be an early favorite for “Game of Thrones” line of the year.
- Oh…and that other thing that happened during last night’s “Game of Thrones”? C’mon…least surprising surprise ever.
- I think the Double U-Turn was broken this week on “The Amazing Race.” You shouldn’t be able to use it on teams that have already passed.
- Keeping WWE Superstar Enzo Amore in my thoughts and prayers after last night’s unfortunate accident during WWE Payback. Hoping everything turns out OK for the “realest guy in the room.”

 James Corden Knocked His Beyonce Parody Out of the Park (“The Late Late Show”) |
 This Angry Baby Grew Up to Be a Star. Do You Recognize Her? (“The Late Late Show”) |
Random Thoughts…
So…what aren’t they telling us about how quickly Michael Strahan is leaving “Live with Kelly & Michael”? Something’s up. … I’m not a fan of James Corden interviewing three people at once on “The Late Late Show.” Poor Ice Cube sitting there while Maisie Williams discusses music festivals. … The worst thing about having “Game of Thrones” back is the six days you have to wait for a new episode. … Alright CBS, if you promise to renew “Limitless,” I’ll give “Big Brother” a fourth chance. |

1. ‘The Night Manager’ – Only two episodes in and this one has got me hooked. Like I said; it’s basically Bond meets Bourne. |

1. ‘Survivor: Kaoh Rong’ (CBS: 8pm ET) – Tai turned the whole season on its ear last week with his refusal to create the super idol. Who knows what he’ll do this week. |

3. ‘The Americans’ (FX: 10pm ET) – Martha’s fate is finally going to be determined. Dun…dun…dun…
