So, maybe I won't be watching "Whitney" after all. Sepinwall gave it a C-.
Ugh.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The thing I remember most clearly about Whitney is a billboard saying something like "When we say you look good we don't mean it". I thought that was...who was it trying to talk to? I'm not saying there shouldn't be a show for bitches, but I prefer bitchery with a point, not just a general I-lie-to-get-along bitchery. That's not interesting.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Because books.
My problem is I've seen Whitney on Chelsea Lately, and I never thought she was that funny there, either.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I was feeling like I must have a lot of new shows to watch because the limitations of my DVR mean I have to drop and add a bunch of subscriptions every change of the TV season, but really only, like, four of my "new" passes are for actual new shows: Ringer, The New Girl, Person of Interest, and Terra Nova. All of which are on probation because, dang, I have a lot of returning shows to watch.

Because books.
I can't think of anything new I'm watching aside from Ringer and The New Girl (and the jury is out on that one till I see the pilot).

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
When does The New Girl start? I can't decide if it looks hilarious or watch-from-the-hall-y.

hip deep in pie
The promos I've seen for Whitney baffle me with their unfunniness. And she's nothing like msbelle!
Happy Birthday Lori! Happy Anniversary Plei!
