Doctor Who. Doctor Who was my favorite show until about a season after Moffat took over. His lack of insight into character development and constructed long-term plot arcs staled me on the prowess of the show's writing, and his misogynistic "sassy girl" characters really just made me angry. He's great at writing one

He did an episode of New Girl you might enjoy, then! It's in the first season (on Netflix), I believe.

I agree. I'm excited NOW that the next book is only a year away, from what we've been told. In the meantime, I've been reading conspiracy theories and I watch the show. And make smug little comments like "no, I can't say if (SPOILERS) SANSA is still alive….snigger snigger Alayne." So yeah that's never going to be a

I watched every episode up until maybe the Twin Peaks one, marathoned, in the course of a few weeks. And then I just stopped. I did watch the musical one, which was….bad. Just BAD. That show used to be really special - Family Guy style obscure references and physical gags without the misogyny, racism, etc. but it's

It's like they were penalizing Helms for leaving. Look how they treated Donald Glover on Community for the right way to reduce your character's screentime or send them off (there's even a boat in both as a constant!). Even Community kicking Pierce off had a whole episode of tender reflection. I don't know what the

Uh, look at Ryan Murphy doing Nip/Tuck (which was trashy and campy but still compelling) and then trying Glee. It happens a lot, sadly.

I'm literally still watching True Blood so I can help my mom remember who's who and why this person is where they are (she should not be allowed to watch anything other than procedurals and stasis sitcoms) and because they showed us ASkar's peen that one time. Oh and Alcide. I hate everything else and can't wait for

SCREAMING

I went to an OC party with fake Sandy eyebrows on and Peter Gallagher tweeted at me for it. It's probably the proudest I've ever been of myself.

I, and this is just me, don't know any LGBTQIA people who have issue with Will and Grace. I think between Jack not wearing pink and actually having boyfriends at some points, Karen's understated bisexuality, and the messages they sent out (Will's husband is a cop) they think the show did a lot of good. However, I'm

New Girl's "The Landlord" also proposed a threesome - two men, one woman.

Frasier really has that perfect blend, because then you have Martin and Roz and Daphne AND Bulldog to occasionally do something that either makes Frasier look like the sane/sophisticated one, or to bring him back down from his loftiness.

I'm reading them now - picturing Ford as Mos Def. In sci-fi, if you can have aliens and spaceships and time travel, but not black people….that's likely racist.

I hope that's not the case because I'd prefer that just being the way he is, but I wouldn't be mad if they reveal that as someone who despises homophobia. I think last night's reveal from Kevin was a nice message sent to people who watch the show and aren't that politically/socially aware.

Diaz and Boyle is a Niles Crane/Daphne Moon type relationship but while I LOVE Niles/Daphne, I have no interest in Diaz and Boyle together, primarily because she's rebuffed him several times where Daphne never rebuffed Niles. They just were with other people for most of his love for her. And I just don't like the idea

I like that comedy is moving in that direction, where mispronunciation, stumbles, awkward pauses are present.

That and the eight-dollarest lines were very natural. They were funny, but felt very organic, like something anyone could say. When you watch some shows, you get that feeling of "people aren't naturally this funny in arguments or conversation"(Frasier is one I recently watched) but a lot of this show rests on an easy

Any opinions on UAN and BFF? Should I try them?

I have no idea why NBC didn't grab Happy Endings when they were shopping it to TBS. It doesn't even seem like a high-budget show, the actors are still unknown enough that they can't command terribly large paychecks, NBC apparently just grabbed Eliza for another pilot anyway. And you know that they'd have to do little

They had Will & Grace for another two seasons after Friends and Frasier went off the air.
