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

My main question is: How long would it take for Karen Gillan's hair to grow that long? She was bald in 2013 at SDCC.

Gotta be extensions. Hair grows half an inch a month (on average), so about six inches a year.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

It's a wig. Marvel saved her hair when she shaved it off for GotG and had a wig custom-made for her.

I'm so glad Brooklyn Nine-Nine is back.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Don't know if everyone's seen this.

Sad, but totally understandable.

I had not seen that. I will miss her a lot, but that totally makes sense.

I didn't really like the Selfie pilot, but I like Karen Gillan and John Cho and the premise could be interesting (or could go terribly terribly wrong) so I think I will give it another watch if my DVR isn't too full next week. No season pass yet, though.

Always Anti-fascist!

I thought it was cute, too.

I didn't hate it, but I also know that I would not have even considered watching it if Karen Gillian hadn't been the star.

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

I showed for Cho (his neck looks great!), and really hope it irons itself out. I'm currently in the phase where I want anvils to fall on everyone's head. Her came is so on the button it's distracted, but I just hope that.

I've seen two posters for it--one with just Cho and Gillian, and one with a bunch of (presumably co-workers) people yukking it up. I hope it grows up into the second show

Man, Raising Hope and Community got me back into sitcoms after a long time off, but it's definitely about the show talent, not the genre.

I find I'm really enjoying The Mindy Project these days, but I have to avoid New Girl because the increasingly strong urge to punch out Zooey Deschanel endangers the TV set and it's not mine to break.
