I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Did Barney and McCracken's (Uriel's) Lethal Weapon-esque discussion remind anyone else of the ita/Dana COMM?

Totally.

Aw, you need to watch The Wire ! He is quite pleasant and not menacing! His name is BUNNY, for crying out loud

Wait! That was Robert Wisdom??? I didn't recognize him at all! It's the mustache I guess. I don't know who this Uriel character is.

I know, the facial hair really threw me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I might not have recognized him if I hadn't read tiggy's post before seeing the episode. And even then, I wasn't quite sure until I listened to him. He looked very different.

I don't know who this Uriel character is.

Supernatural.

Supernatural

I saw in the imdb. I kept thinking you guys were mispelling Urkel and was like "WHA?! He's certainly...changed."

What is even happening?

Oh, Urkel.

SO people are talking about Cupid, here? I expected it in Boxed Set. I guess I'm putting too much stock in him being Cupid. It makes sense here too, since it's a dramedy.

Sean Maquire is the the matchmaking case du jour on the premiere of Cupid, and he is both much, MUCH hotter than the last time I saw him on TV and is speaking in a Scottish accent. Do you know what it takes to make Bobby Cannavale fade into the background for me?!?

He really did, didn't he? I found myself wishing Dave and Maddie would be the secondary characters, rather than the bar owning brother and sister. I thought the pilot was all right, but I don't know if I'd be watching it if I wasn't paid to.

Oh, are you recapping? I didn't know!

I don't know where we're talking about Cupid. I enjoyed the pilot more than I expected.

I am. It's only getting a "weecap" though, which, when I'm writing it is a meaningless distinction for readers. I just get a way shorter deadline and a lot less money.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I kept thinking you guys were mispelling Urkel and was like "WHA?! He's certainly...changed."

So glad I'm not the only one!
