As I look out my office window in midtown and see snow coming down, I must admit that I'm a bit upset that this show and Girls shoot mostly in the summer. We need an episode that involves Abbi, new shoes and a deceptively deep slush puddle!

I thought Bonnie would be the natural choice because her and Asher seem to the easiest to write out of the show without dramatically disturbing the dynamic.

Charlyne Yi telling Dom his fathers Portuguese restaurant sounded exotic was excellent. Here you have an Asian-American woman from (presumably) Modesto, treating Portuguese food as outside the realm of normal. It was a throw-away line but I liked the shift of emphasis to Dom being the Other (which he likely already…

I wish they'd highlighted that almost all of their drinks are served in tea cups (except the beers which are…

The reading rainbow music sting is the best sound effect to have when you get text messages.

"I am not a machine!" Is one of the more memorable lines from that game.

I think a lot could be said about the scene and the view Shosh has about herself. She seems perfectly suited for a lower energy, social job like being a buyer at Anne…

Not that I know personally, but the firecracker approach she used actually works.

What I like about this show is it normalizes a lot of things that, as a straight man, I used to find a bit more uncomfortable. I've explained this elsewhere, but even having grown up in a very gay-friendly suburb in the Northeast (think conservative jewish men with three black children all with dreads and yarmulkes)…
