The network housing the majority of the shows I watch, NBC, is pretty much on hiatus until next week, so there's not much rounding-up this week.
How I Met Your Mother: "Bad News"- Interesting enough to warrant a full- length review. Look on the main page for it because I'm too lazy to provide a link.
Modern Family: "Slow Down Your Neighbors"- Fun, but still very flawed. Claire was at her most bothersome and the James Marsden storyline was extremely predictable. Claire's facial expressions at the end were priceless though.
Cougar Town: "No Reason to Cry"- I am happy to report I will be watching this show weekly from now on and I'm sad I've ignored it up until now (but c'mon, it's called Cougar Town, can you blame me?). It's a very refreshing type of show. The characters and plotlines all mesh very nicely. I am also impressed about how they seamlessly integrated the new comer to the Culdesac Crew. She fits right in. The show has a remarkable flow and I love it's self aware title cards.
The Big Bang Theory: "The Bus Pants Utilization"- It honestly feels like they've done this storyline ten or so times. Sheldon is just obnoxious now and you just wait and hope for him to get a slap in the face but it never comes. Nobody actually buys Leonard and Penny as a feasible couple. And, off topic, I can guarantee you the final scene of the series will be the group getting on the elevator. I can see why I don't watch this show every week anymore. It's become tired and lazy, essentially Two and a Half Men with a more extensive vocabulary.
Yeah, that was pretty much it. I miss television.
