^Love Cheryl Hines, discovered her in Suburgatory years ago. Jason Sud.... (too many vowels) is funny, and Nick Offerman guested yesterday.

What the hell? Just saw an ad for the "Winter Finale" of Lucifer. We just came back from the "Fall Finale." Seriously?

After (painfully) watching this show called Baskets on FX, I was never so bored in my life, it was a sitcom with no humor.
I am calling this one dead on arrival.

That's something they've shifted to as they've seen better ratings by keeping episodes grouped rather than sprinkling 1 new one every other week or so as they used to do to fill the lesser months (per the ratings calender)

February is a sweeps month, January isn't. So they give enough to maintain post christmas shutdown interest, then increase delivery for the rating month.

Huh. Well, it still sucks.
I hear you. I did watch the entire first season and I saw what they were trying to do with it. I thought they succeeded to some extent but the whole noir comedy commenting on existential angst thing didn't really hit home with me. I thought it was a valiant attempt though. Not sure I will watch the second season unless I see some good comments on it.

It's good to be Ted Danson as The Good Place will keep the lights on for another year.
Despite some of the crap this show has gotten, I really like it. I thought it's been interesting and unpredictable and personally I didn't see the most recent twist coming although I suppose I should have. And this is coming from someone who really doesn't like either Ted or the female lead. When you can dislike the actors but still like the characters and the theme, that I think says a lot about the quality of the writing and directing.

That's good news. Started watching it a few episodes in, thought it was good.

And the "winter finale" for Lucifer appears to be a 2 week break according to IMDB. That merits a "finale" title now?

More stinkers tonight, Superior Donuts, and Powerless.
Not funny, stupid punch lines, and they need to ban the laugh tracks.

Big Bang theory was also not funny. (Though, it has been trending that way for awhile now.)

Gun to my head, I could watch Powerless. It wasn't horrible. I might even check out the second episode just to see if it gets any better. I'm not hopeful but it has Ron Funches and Danny Pudi guys. I mean, c'mon. These guys are comedy gold.

I didn't watch Powerless, but was REALLY disappointed by Superior Donuts. Even going in with watered-down expectations as mid-season replacement shows are rarely very good, it still failed to live up to hopes. Not a single joke really landed.

Netflix renews Love & OA.

Travelers really is a pretty good show. Good call on renewing that. Not really an Eric McCormack fan but I like him in this. And then of course you have MacKenzie Porter and some other hotties on the show. But I loved the concept of time traveling by possessing the minds of people who would have otherwise died. And I loved the season cliff hanger.
