Nothing good can come from this.

Jim Rash; I really wouldn't mind him getting a bigger role. I doubt it will happen, but still.

THURSDAY AT 8PM!!!

I didn't learn how to direct a TV drama, but it was still a nice read.

Blacklist looks like something conjured up by that scientific algorithm for movies that AV-Club had an article on recently. Female badass lead? Underdog? Anti-hero Mastermind Criminal? Military tie-in? Explosions? Also, they really overkilled James Spader's holding cell. It's like "Silence of the Lambs" + "NCIS" + "My

I can definitely see Parks getting obliterated at 8PM. I feel like BBT/Idol/Parks would share a large chunk of their audiences. Parks seems to be least likely to be watched live given the choices.

The Mulaney pilot didn't get picked up. Bit of a surprise there.

I don't twitter but I think it's hilarious #Popwhat was trending in the US earlier for no organized reason, and now it's escalated to trending #POPWHAT.
