OK, first things first: Does anyone have any idea who did the song that played at the end of Grey’s Anatomy tonight? I’m guessing it was called “A Brand New Day” with all the strings and the female vocals and the techno blippy stuff. That was a really frakin’ cool song. I wants it. Nows.

Now with that said, tonight was one of the greatest nights of TV ever. Man, that was some good stuff. I feel full, not from Thanksgiving dinner, but from the fantastic television offerings. First up was Survivor, which although this season got off to a rocky start it has quickly become mega-awesome in no time flat. Tonight’s vote was the most suspenseful one I’ve ever seen. You’ve got to give it to Jonathan for not showing any of his cards before or during tribal council. That guy surprised everyone, no one more than Nate, of course, which led to one of the best final messages ever, where he basically just repeatedly called Jonathan a bastard. Over and over and over. The preview for next week looks just as promising, with Jonathan’s old/new tribe wondering what the hell happened while he makes a very public showing of where his true allegiance now is.

But back to this episode. You’ve got Yul showing how smart and geeky he really is, first with his strategy for finally revealing to select players that he has the immunity idol to save his tribe after the merge, then in how he approached the topic of flipping with Jonathan (seriously, has anyone ever been more graceful trying to flip someone else before?), and then very cutely going into a detailed scientific discussion of why the women have an unfair advantage in the immunity challenge because of the surface area of their feet (pulling it all together with a funny elephant running up a tree comment). You’ve got Candice and Adam getting way too close together (that’ll definitely bite them in the ass) and Adam trying to have his cake and eat it too by grabbing Pavarti’s ass. Finally you have Jonathan desperately trying to make his tribe just consider the fact that Yul might have the immunity idol without telling them that he does for a fact know that Yul does have it. They’re reasoning? He was only there one day. No way in hell he could have found it. This is after they decide to vote Yul off because they think he is so much smarter than everyone else. And he is. Did he need more than one day to find it? It looked like he didn’t need more than fifteen minutes. They deserve to get picked off one by one. They’re stupid. So frakin’ stupid.

Next you have Grey’s Anatomy. How is it possible that this show continues to get better and better as it goes along? This was better than the Super Bowl episode, better than the episode where Denny dies. In my mind this was probably the first perfect Grey’s episode ever. The writing was sharp, understated and right to the point. Nothing was played bigger than it needed to be. The music was even more subtle and dynamic than ever. The acting was dead on. Everything was dead on. And everyone had something to do without it feeling like the writers were trying to give them something to do. I could gush and gush and go on forever. But what I really want to know right now is who did that song that played at the end of the episode???
