Finally, we discuss the epic finale of True Blood's first season. TV Geek Out Geeks Heather and Dana marvel at how much was set up for season two as well as wrapped up from the current storylines -- who knew that knowing who the killer was would make Sookie's final showdown with him even more suspenseful? We're already jonesing for more True Blood like a couple of V addicts, but fear not! We'll be covering the season one episodes we missed earlier this fall.

TV Geek Out 36: America's Next Top Model, Cycle 11 Finale
TV Geek Out Geeks Dana and Heather have a fashionably late discussion about the winner of America's Next Top Model's eleventh cycle, the season as a whole, and the future of the show. Is ANTM as fun and fabulous as it used to be? Is Tyra's wackiness threatening to topple the rest of the show? Did we smile with our eyes?

TV Geek Out 35: Ugly Betty
Even though we haven't geeked out about Ugly Betty until now, it's one of TV Geek Out geeks Dana and Heather's favorite shows, with its mix of humor, sweetness and fabulous fashionistas. Dana leads this discussion of the show's third season, which has seen Daniel gain (and lose) a son, Amanda become roommates with Betty, and an extended cameo from Lindsay Lohan. Ugly Betty is still in style with us!

TV Geek Out 34: Fringe, "In Which We Meet Mr. Jones" and "The Equation"
Fringe is already famed for its gory mysteries, but the parasite wrapped around a human heart in "In Which We Meet Mr. Jones" had to be one of the young show's creepiest moments so far. The TV Geek Out geeks geek out (and freak out!) about that, as well as the secret message buried in the parasite's DNA, Olivia's tense interview with THE Mr. Jones and Walter's use of Peter as a ventriloquist dummy for the dead. Also, DON'T look at the red and green lights! They're not festive Christmas decorations, but a method of inducing deep hypnosis in "The Equation." Math and music collide in a supposedly dead woman's obsessive quest to solve a mysterious equation. We discuss Dr. Bishop's disturbing trip back into the dark world of the mental institution, where he's trying desperately to obtain clues to help the team locate a kidnapped boy -- introducing us to two new intriguing characters at the asylum, played by the awesome guest actors Randall Duk Kim and William Sadler.

TV Geek Out 33: Grey's Anatomy, "These Ties That Bind"
The first episode after Dr. Hahn just got in her car and never came back to Seattle Grace featured an "accordioned homeless guy," introduced Melissa George as Meredith's sexy, edgy friend Sadie and marked the return of Denny ... as a ghost haunting Izzie. Why does Jeffrey Dean Morgan always play the dead guy on TV shows? The TV Geek Out Geeks marvel at the truly strange territory Grey's Anatomy is venturing into.

TV Geek Out 32: 30 Rock, "The One with the Cast from Night Court"
The TV Geek Out Geeks would prefer to remember this episode as the one with cameos from some of Night Court's biggest stars than the one guest-starring Jennifer Aniston. To be fair, her game performance proved that she is a TV star first and foremost. Ken-doll had his biggest wish come true, we got tons of insight into Liz's views on relationships and sex, and the TV Geek Out Geeks are ready to start up a franchise of Aquarium nightclubs. Also, the Soup du Jour of the Day is piping hot!

TV Geek Out 31: True Blood, "To Love Is to Bury"
Lots of things came full circle on the penultimate episode of True Blood's first season -- namely, Jason and Amy's doomed relationship and the reveal of just who the killer plaguing Bon Temps really was. However, just as many stories and characters were set up or turned on their heads: "Freelance social worker" Maryann seems too good to be true, and newly-made vampire Jessica is less about God-fearing and more about hell-raising, much to Bill's chagrin. Oh, and Sam and Sookie almost kiss. It's these kinds of wild mood swings and mysteries that have the TV Geek Out Geeks already missing the show.

TV Geek Out 30: House, "The Itch" and "Emancipation"
TV Geek Out Geek Dana continues to school us on House's fifth season, giving us the skinny on "The Itch," which starred character actor extraordinaire Todd Louiso as an agoraphobic, and "Emancipation," which featured a 16 year-old whose arsenic poisoning was the least of her problems.

TV Geek Out 29: Heroes, "It's Coming"
Heroes went back to the present with "It's Coming," but Hiro regressed to his 10-year-old mentality, and once again, it's all about Claire being special ("save the cheerleader, save the powers"?). Despite some cool scenes -- most of which involved Parkman, Daphne and Angela Petrelli -- the episode still lagged. "It" might be coming, but the TV Geek Out Geek's patience is definitely leaving.

TV Geek Out 25: True Blood, "I Don't Wanna Know"
"I Don't Wanna Know" found most of True Blood's characters in major denial -- almost as much denial as the TV Geek Out geeks are in about the fact that the show's first season is almost over! It's gritty, it's bleak and it's often sad (poor teenage shape-shifting Sam!) We also learn that Bill has a loofah, what ipecac does and get a few more clues as to who the killer might be. The TV Geek Out Geeks don't wanna know about evil, they just wanna talk about it all.
