30 minute dramas are really frustrating, I always feel short changed when the episode ends.

 timeMarry Me didn't get a full back order (effectively cancelled), so Casey Wilson isn't busy. Benched got cancelled, so Eliza Coupe is free. Damon Wayans Jr and Adam Pally just left New Girl and Mindy Project, respectively. Elisha Cuthbert and Zach Knighton are both on mid-season comedies that only have 6 ep orders that are almost certainly in the can by now. And the writers of Happy Endings posted this on Twitter. I am trying unsuccessfully not to be really excited even though the countdown ends on April 1st.

It's probably something like another improv show or something. There's no reason that ABC would revive it, but I guess TBS or something could.

IRQ posted:Is there any reason to watch it? This is by far the most consistent season. Even more so than S2. I'd argue that it's gotten funnier overall now that the characters are becoming more lived-in and they're letting them develop, and especially now that it feels more like an ensemble show with everyone getting equal time.

I caught the last 3 seasons on Netflix but haven't had a chance to watch much of the 4th season (caught up over the fall, so I didn't DVR the show...) I really liked it, though.

For Happy Endings, it's this. Haven't seen it in ages but remember it being really funny, especially some of the notes that go back and forth between the writing room and S&P. e: maybe not as much improv as I remembered, but still. Funny. EL BROMANCE fucked around with this message at 12:53 on Feb 9, 2015 |

The Romano/Helicopters blood feud was the best thing ever. Also around that time someone was GTAing around Chicago in a tank for one finale, and I think in another they all got ebola.

New Girl sits in that weird place that no matter whether it's on a good run or bad, it's still the worst thing I regularly watch I think. There's just nothing compelling about it at all really, but there's sometimes a few gags that work and I don't hate the cast. It's not good though and if it got cancelled, I wouldn't give a poo poo.

It's the only show of its type that I like anymore. I watched Happy Endings, but just didn't feel like watching it one week and never went back. I think I like everyone in the cast and I usually laugh more than groan which is about as good as any of those shows gets. I'm glad they're not trying to force much romance anymore. I just want Winston to be weird with a cat and Nick to drink too much and I enjoy it. It's probably not good though, as you said.
