(He's like the normal one.) Did you see the episode where he banged Barb in the garage?!!<BR/><BR/>I hear you on the slow blogger days.

Sorry I haven't been around to comment, life happens. <BR/><BR/>I have fallen in love with this show!

It's a very funny show!!<BR/><BR/>Hopefully CBS will give it a real time slot this fall.

Maybe I need to rent it and start at the beginning. That's what I had to do to appreciate both 30 Rock and How I Met Your Mother. Once I had some clarity on the back story, the jokes were funnier.LAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03007198807321069686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15129270.post-64590717292145366562008-04-05T00:25:00.000-05:002008-04-05T00:25:00.000-05:00It was my destiny to eventually hook-up with Christine and post about her hot, new show. And when I say hot, I mean funny. And when I say funny, I really have to say sad. Because it really is a sad show. A sad show that is really funny.<BR/><BR/>You see, I initially did not like this dry little drama. It struggled for the laughs. It worked from the limited perspective of single mom with no cash. All the other CBS Monday night sitcoms had a more youthful premise, with the easy tits and ass punch-lines. And after a hard day at work, it all went down fast and sleazy. <BR/><BR/>TNAOOC has all the tits and ass jokes, but they're sandwiched between the realities of modern life: Divorce, aging, hormones, family, parenting, lack of free time and space, etc.<BR/><BR/>But the topic that finally convinced me of this show's brilliant insight was Christine's battle against the busy bitches. (The busy bitch is a term I developed some time ago to deal with the passive-aggressive soccer moms that seem to be invading middle Earth.) I know the frustration Christine was feeling in her futile attempts to socially communicate with these creatures. It's impossible. But you have to give props to any normal human that tries. And Christine became my comedy hero, because she does try.GetFlixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01490253583008054538noreply@blogger.com
