Funny.
Glee 2x02
"It looks like a Jewish cloud."
"Leave Brittany alone."
Brittana. I love you Brittany S. Pierce. I couldn’t tell if Will was more creepy or annoying this episode. I had that problem with a lot of the characters. I can’t believe we have to deal with Finn/Rachel all season especially when at this point Quinn is nicer than Rachel. Finn and Rachel are like Will and Terri the high school years. Their conversations sound the same and Rachel is getting Terri’s level of crazy. As a fan of Brittana and Brittany, I liked the episode though it felt a little off.
Life Unexpected 2x03
"You sounded like a bad episode of ‘Saved by the Bell’ which is redundant."
Glad Emma Caulfield is sticking around. One reason to keep watching. I didn’t think Paige would be sticking around but it’s interesting that she is and that Ryan and Cate share some flaws. Everyone on this show has their issues and blindspots that can be unattractive and sucky to watch but I did love that Math called Lux out on her cheating, fought for her and didn’t let het keep being dumb. He called her out on the fact that she isn’t who she wants to be. Someone has to keep everyone on this show from blaming for each other for all their problems. It was also nice that Cate acknowledges all the chances she gives and got. Nice to see jock kid stick around. I don’t care about this show enough to learn his name. Of course hot teacher is her tutor. Why not Math? Ugh.
Parenthood 2x03
"You go forklift something."
It was nice to see the parents succeeding in connecting to their children through quality time though there was a bit of failure. It was nice to see Max trying and Crosby get his opportunity to spend time like he knows how. It was nice to see Sarah succeed with Amber because you could see how badly Sarah wanted to connect and be nice especially in the face of such an "upper class" family. They don’t have the strongest relationship in the first place and Amber made her fight for it while wanting space to just be with her friend and so it was nice to see Sarah and Amber connect at the end.
No Ordinary Family 1x01
"Keep me updated on the costume design."
I watch this for Julie Benz. BtVS cred goes very far with me. I liked him actually catching the bullet. I liked how Jim saved that woman and then began to learn about his powers at the batting range. So, we’re dropped into a dysfunctional marriage saved by superpowers? I liked how the kids are close to the dad. We also have a nice supervillain thing set up with people close to the heroes. I like female cop. Sort of cheesy. Made me miss "Heroes."
The Good Wife 2x01
Bad Eli. I liked the show coming back and felt like a lot of things were being set up. It was a good premiere. I missed the show.
