New Girl
It looks like *everyone* forgot about Rabbit Hole Day. Usually, it's just me.
I forgot to mention I've been watching New Girl, the sitcom starring Zooey Deschanel. The commercials didn't look all that funny, nor did the clips I saw on Ferguson, plus as I've reported here, I've found my Zooey Deschanel experiences to be uneven (one movie I can't remember in any detail, two bad movies, one good movie, one good job in an otherwise bad movie.) So I wasn't planning to watch it. I blame gmdreiafor changing my mind.
The show was funnier than its previews. It's got this weird simultaneously wacky and low-key quality. For example, the cat that was raised by birds. There are some really contrived bits; they're obviously planning this as a long-term "boy (Nick) and girl (Jess) meet cute" story. So, like all sitcoms in the last thirty years with this kind of plot line, they had a "see each other naked by accident" episode.
But despite the failings, I like it quite a bit. If only I could remember to watch it...
I should also talk about the current crop of borderline sci-fi shows, but I'll save that for later.
