Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Rayne, check out Raising Hope if you haven't already. It's marvelous.

Oh yes! I love Raising Hope too! But it doesn't make me quite as giddy as the other four I mentioned. Same with The Big Bang Theory, Modern Family and How I Met Your Mother.

I'm also tentatively loving 2 Broke Girls and New Girl right now.

Yep, total comedy phase.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I gave up on the New Girl pretty quickly, but I was surprised at how much I liked 2 Broke Girls

That which does not kill you should RUN

2 Broke Girls is better than the commercials made it look? Because I had started calling it "2 Stupid Girls" in my head.

I thought so, yes

I still haven't seen S3 of Parks and Recreation--should I try to catch up before watching this season?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

that would probably be preferable . but I liked the premiere tonight.

I really liked that both girls were intelligent in their own ways, so not completely cliched, but the final scene with the horse was kind of stupid.
