Jane the Virgin? It's pretty delightful.
Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Can you explain how she's a pregnant virgin?

I don't remember what the spoiler policy is in here, so:
She is involved with a mix-up at her ob-gyn's, and is inseminated.
It's very much a telenovela. With a fabulous narrator.

Hmm. Maybe I'll look. Pretty sure if that's aired, that's blackfont.

It's pretty funny. And perfectly cast.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Ran across some old eps of the Jack Benny show. Comic genius. One sketch in particular, in which Jack crashes a set where Jimmy Stewart is filming his new movie, was beyond priceless.
I am also convinced that Stephen Colbert took at least a little of his persona from Jack.

Is anyone watching blackish? I've watched a few eps, and they just repeated the "nod" episode this week--that concept I really liked, because it's TRUE. There's a nod. I'm the least African American black citizen, and I know there's a nod.

Disabled people do it too, ita. Although I had to learn that from getting one a few times...I didn't have a family example for it.

Is anyone watching blackish?
I am, but I'm behind as I am with most TV. The fourth episode (Crazy Mom) was pretty great, and I think it might be hitting its stride because Crime and Punishment (episode five) made me laugh my head off.
