I know I am the show's target audience, but I can't get into it. I've seen two or three episodes, and it just seems to be trying too hard. A few chuckles, but that's it.
Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?

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

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I am pleased that the show has cut way back on the constant fat-girl "jokes" from Howard.
And as much as I like the guys, I have to say, Sheldon's mom, Leonard's mom, and Amy Farrah Fowler were *perfectly* cast. Mayim Bialik is the best damn thing to happen to that show in a long time.

Because books.
Sheldon makes me so happy. And Christine Baraski as Leonard's mother is frigging genius.

SRSLY. I love her in everything I've seen her in (especially Cybill), but she rocks my socks as Leonard's mom.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I didn't really start liking it until I saw the episodes with Amy Farrah Fowler.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hil, I am all the time saying "he's not wrong" to the laugh track re: Sheldon.

I've also starting watching reruns of 30 Rock. I'm not addicted, but there's definitely some funny stuff in there. My long sitcom-less stretch seems to be over, even if I'm three years behind.

I am making polenta, and I forgot the part about gradually whisking the cornmeal in. Oops. I will pretend the lumps are little corn kernels, I guess. Seems to taste good, anyway.

I love this place and wish we could all do more than offer virtual help and support.

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

She's great in Addams Family Values too. (Which Emmett just discovered. Guess who thinks Gomez is the coolest guy since Daniel Craig's James Bond?)
