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

Don't Trust the B in Apartment 23 has been pulled from the network and is probably canceled

I knew this was coming, but it's still sad. I wish they'd at least air the rest of season two ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY SPENT HALF OF SEASON TWO AIRING SEASON ONE.

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

Aw, I'm surprisingly fond of that show. Oh well.

Also, as much as I dislike Pierce, it gave us this quote: "Also, you're dressed like a gladiator in a desk fort that you built during a bad trip."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I noticed this about Raising Hope:

Speaking of Raising Hope, starting next Tuesday, Fox will double pump originals of the comedy in the 8 PM hour until Hell’s Kitchen arrives in March. Raising Hope will wrap its third season with an hourlong finale behind American Idol on March 28. In light of the pending departure of creator/showrunner Greg Garcia, who has two pilots in contention at CBS, the show’s long-term prospects are unclear, though the blue-collar comedy has been consistently funny and a solid ratings performer.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I didn't realize Greg Garcia was leaving the show. If it does get renewed, it will be interesting to see if it will still be as good without him.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Having just watched the last episode of Raising Hope, I'm blown away by consistent the love is on it. It's just so charming, and the way they're convinced that Frank will hate him while they're still loving him...it's adorable.

Poor Hope, though. Those twins have less and less to do. I wonder if they even still need both of them at this rate...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

HIMYM: Barney has a half sister?

It's been implied that she will be the Mother. Hence, Uncle Barney and Uncle Robin.

Community: "Human Sexuality" is where I think Troy and Abed became Troy and Abed. The previous ep, with Fieval, Troy was still hung up on the Troy-centric model of friendship ("You're MY friend") and in Human Sexuality, Troy starts off trying to compete with Abed, but realizes that it's not what their friendship is all about. This ep ends with Abed tenderly reading Troy to sleep with a science textbook and tucking him in.

Surprisingly decent Pierce advice/conversation with Jeff at the end. I also enjoyed the Reverse Porky's shenanigans the ladies got up too. They had the lighthearted sex romp storyline, and the dudes got the relationship stuff.
