Wednesdays = best days
When did Wednesdays become so awesome? They've always been the meh-est of weekdays, that day in the middle of the week that is neither the start or the end, plus it has that weird name - basically, if Wednesdays were a color it would be beige. But now it's like the best TV day, not just in terms of number of shows, and not in terms of awesome shows (cause the only ones I'd call legit quality TV is Cougar Town and New Girl), but in terms of sheer happiness factor. Wednesdays is a day my eyeballs are happy.
NCIS LA: Not a great ep (always fun to see they remember Nate though, points for continuity) but Deeks was in it and he and Kenzi had ~banter so it fulfilled all my requirements for an episode of this show. I love that touché is a running joke they have now, and I also DEMAND an episode where we either flashback to Deeks in his public defender role or where he's forced to go undercover as one. I find it so hard to think he used to be a lawyer, he's such a cop! ... Or possibly a con man, I could see him as a con man. Which I guess is sort of like a lawyer, though perhaps not a public defender.
Also: lol at Hetty's undercover routine.
New Girl: I'm so glad this show seems to have realized Nick Miller is the greatest and are doing episodes focused on him. I wish they'd focus more on Winston instead of Schmidt though, cause that dude is just 100% getting on my nerves at this point. STOP STALKING CC. ALSO, GIVE CC A NON-DATING-RELATED STORYLINE. Also make Robbie go away.
But yeah, Nick's dad, fun guy and explaining a LOT about Nicholas "Little Penis" Miller. BTW, if they're ever pressed for material they should totally just do a half-hour of Jake Johnsson doing improv, he does the best non-verbal comedy. That dance, that dance, someone had better have GIFed that! Tumblr, don't fail me now!
Tumblr never fails. <3 They also had this:
THE WINK. *Ded.*
Hart of Dixie: WELL THEN. I was gonna quit watching after last episode, because I figured it's only a matter of time now before they break Zoe and Wade up in some horribly contrived manner and then it'll be the Zoe/George Show which: YAWN, but yeah, I'm glad I decided to postpone that for a bit. I realized they had to atleast let em have one episode of being adorable, was a bit worried for a while there I'd be wrong but nope, they actually ... handled that whole first fight thing well? Both the writers and the characters? O_O I'm shocked beyond words, no lie. Still convinced they'll break em up in some really stupid TV-way though and then go straight for Zoe and George.
Don't curr about Lemon and Lavon's whole thing, but man Lemon's face when she almost fessed up why she sorta broke up him and Ruby (other than, you know, for the good of all of us)? Ugh, such a pretty sad face.
Cougar Town: Game of Thrones family night= funniest of all things in all shows, not just today but this week and possibly this month. I laughed so hard my eyes watered and my cat nearly fell out of my lap - he actually looked like he was worried I was having a stroke. (And I was laughing too hard to reassure him me having a stroke would look more like ... well, Nick Miller dancing, basically.) The gang embarrassing Trav = my favorite thing, especially if he's on a date (I also love it whenever they do that hiding-behind-furniture-and-jumping-out-to-sing-a-greeting thing to his girlfriends). Also yeah, watching Game of Thrones with your parents = on my top 5 list of most horrifying parents-related things.
The opener was also awesome, Jules and Trav, but the rest of the episode felt a little re-hashy and I didn't love Greyson's thing. Also Tom's cat story just made me sad and kind of furious at the gang, because they can be as mean as they want to Tom, but his cat? AW HELLS NO. Not cool, CDSC, not cool.
The Mindy Project: STOP MAKING ME SHIP MINDY/HANDSOME JERK, OKAY FINE TWIST MY ARM WHY DON'T YOU. (Or, you know, drop a bunkbed on my arm, as it were.) Yeah, Danny's definitely growing on me, I liked his flirty thing with the girl from Girls too so I don't mind if that happens - I think certain shows have burnt me to too much on ships that happen too soon so now I'm all for many seasons of UST. But not unreasonable many, mind.
Bit sad they're going to be cutting down on Anna Camp, I love her and her kid and how Mindy is frequently terrible with said kid but then she's awesome and everything is adorable. Wish they'd cut down on Morgan instead (or just cut him entirely), he's the biggest drag of the show.
In conclusion: Wednesdays are awesome. (You know what is not awesome though? This cinnamon bun thingy I'm attempting to eat. The cinnamon stuff tastes like arsenic. How do you fail at cinnamon buns? *I* can make cinnamon buns, and I have not touched an oven since home ed class in 8th grade.)
