Okay, Bunheads made me a little teary at the end tonight. I still feel like I could spot this as a ASP show from a mile away, but I think I'm going to stick with it for a while. It's such a bizarre premise for a show, but they handled the emotional piece of it pretty delicately.
See, Vera? Dress yourself up; you get taken out somewhere fun.

I just found out that Walter Goggins is in New Orleans for a film shoot. Updates after applied stalking techniques.

It is definitely easy to identify as ASP's work, but I kind of love that about it. Ellen Greene and a Dirty Dancing reference; I officially love this show before I've even finished the second episode.

Oh, Ellen Greene! I was trying to figure out who that was.
I do love that she just sort of ended up with the dog. And "Take a load off, Annie," was funny, although in the lyrics it's actually Fanny.

Walton Goggins? Better stalk carefully, Nora, at least till you find out how Method of an actor he is...seems like common sense.(needless to say, I want to know if you meet WG.)

Bunheads: Gregg Henry (Mitchum Huntzberger from GG, Hugh Panetta from The Riches, etc.) as an aging surfer bum?!
This second episode was MUCH better than the first. I'll keep the Season Pass for now.

Well, I certainly will not wear a cowboy hat.
I guess he's in the QT movie that's been filming down here forever.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have to say that although I like the lead of Bunheads much more than I thought I'd like an ASP character, I pretty much despise everyone else other than Boo. Not making it through last night's ep, and deleting the season pass.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
I'm with everybody else who's disappointed that Hubble was ended so quickly (if for no other reason than it would have been nice to get more Alan Ruck), but it's definitely keeping me so far.
And I love Boo so much (though I hate the name), and I'm so pleased that a girl who is "bigger-boned" but is a really lovely dancer is getting work!
