Good times, laughing at the expense of others. And by others, I definitely mean Cougar Town‘s Jules, played by Courteney Cox. Every time she sticks her foot in her mouth, it’s pure comedic gold, and brings on the funny from other characters as well. In last night’s episode, we saw Jules stick it, and Grayson […]
Modern Family continues to be one of my favorite new shows. It balances the tongue-in-cheek with the tender, and we never, ever forget just how quirky the characters are. And they added another quirkster tonight, in the form of Shelly Long‘s guest appearance as DeDe, Claire’s and Mitchell’s mom and Jay’s ex-wife. Modern Family, how […]
How I Met Your Mother, oh how you made me laugh tonight. Yes, Marshall and Lily were annoyingly cute (but Barney and Robin were back to their snarky selves) and I got really sick of gouda jokes, but you made up for it in infinite ways. For instance, I didn’t know just how funny tweed […]

From the shout-out to The Clash, to the high-pitched voice of the man-lie (both from Travis and Josh), I […]

“I need you to spread your legs so I can do an ‘H’.” – House to Cameron as he’s miming the diagnosis to Foreman When I first started watching tonight’s episode of House, I was feeling decidedly “meh” about the case of the week. Politics, blah, blah, blah, moral dilemma, whatever. I just wasn’t into […]
