They are going to need to step their game up now that there is no longer any deadweight to be eliminated. It would be nice to see them beat the obnoxious exes, even though they have never really had any issues with that delightful pair.

As for the Doogie spinoff, I was hoping it would be about Ted's future wife. Without that, my interest level drops to 'random new sitcom' level, which is not high. Also, calling it 'dad' instead of 'father' seems like a failure at symmetry, unless the point is to create a disconnect.

I finally watched the last episode of the Office, and even if the show had been going downhill, they really nailed the finale, which most long-running shows manage to blow. It was brought back almost everybody of import in a way that made sense, hit emotional notes and closed storylines, provided some significant changes in the lives of the characters, and managed to be quite funny.
 
New Tales From the Darkside Series Gets a New Name; More Details Revealed - Dread Central

In an interview with MTV, writer Joe Hill revealed that the show is just called "Darkside," and it really is a reinvention, not a reboot. "My feeling is, in the wake of shows like 'The X-Files' and 'Fringe,' the days when you could do a straightforward horror anthology are over," says Hill, who describes the new show as a "descendant, not a reanimation," adding that while he is writing the pilot, if the show does get picked up, he'll be more of a "curator" than a lead writer due to commitments writing novels.

"Darkside" will still draw on short stories for some of its structure and plots. Hill notes the creators have already discussed authors Neil Gaiman, Kelly Link, and C. Robert Cargill, though no official offers have gone out. "I would love if director Amanda Boyle could remake 'Pop Art' at the 22-minute length, but that's just an idle thought," Hill added, citing a short film made from one of Hill's own short stories.

Though the show is clearly still very much a work in progress, Hill says the 2014 premiering project will have 11 to 13 episodes, "unless the pilot sucks, in which case I would expect zero episodes."
 
I only watch 2 Broke Girls because I have a thing for Kat Denings. Is that wrong?

Nothing wrong with that because she's easily the best part of that show, boobs or no boobs. She could go the bombshell route for career attention but chooses to just be her cool self, and I love that about her.
 


For the life of me...I cannot remember what happened on this show. Oh well, guess that is what recaps are for.

Don't know that they set it yet Doc. But I think, barring some more lineup catastrophies(ooooof Dracula anyone) they will probably run it in that weird off-pre summer slot. Will post as soon as I find out anything.
