We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine flashbacks to Holt with hair are the funniest thing ever.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Much as I love the entire gang, if Jake, Rosa, and Doug Judy went off to have a spinoff show by themselves, I'd totally watch. Those three are made of magic, seriously.

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

Mention of Tom Cruise and the Edge of Tomorrow in Natter reminded me - the unaired episodes of Selfie that have been coming out weekly On Demand and on Hulu (and probably other places) have gotten pretty good.

I love it, and it has been getting great reviews online. I wish it would get picked up somewhere else. I also wish Selfie and A to Z had been on the same network and paired together on the same night. Both were paired with clunkers, which probably didn't help them.

That is an interesting proposition. I don't know if they would have paired up well, but I liked both (and had no interest in the shows each was paired with), so maybe!

I really wanted A to Z to be able to get through it's specific timeframe - what was it, 8 months? That doesn't seem like so much to ask.

I think they would have. They're both romantic comedies that have a similar appeal, at least to me.

8 months, 3 weeks, 5 days, and 1 hour.

Ooh, last night said "5 months, 26 days, 4 hours, and 13 minutes". What does it mean?

I think it means they're trying to squish the whole relationship into the couple episodes they have left.

Well, that's a very sensible interpretation.

Well, it sort of makes sense, it is ending at the end of January instead of what, March or April? That's about 3 months.
