> Watching Two Broke Girls as I type this, the Polish woman is the worst character ever on a sitcom. Dumping her from the show would be the best move they could make. She is the Jar-Jar Binks of broadcast TV sitcoms. I hit the mute button at the first sign of her.

She was, is, and always will be Stifler’s Mom. Which is enough for me that I like her in any role I see her in.

To be fair, it’s been on a long time, and was kinda running out of material.

Wait … are you saying that you watch 2 Broke Girls with the sound on or something?

That’s just silly. You want 2 Broke Girls to look at Kat Dennings. And the blonde too, I suppose, who is comely in her own way but not Kat Dennings. There was a memo and everything.

Though I just praised KD and obviously like her, it’s not really the boobs; I’m not a big breast man. I like her face.

Been watching Last Resort, kinda enjoying it. I think 13 episodes is a good length, so now that they know it’s going to be done, hopefully they wrap it up well. The show has suffered from padding (all the stuff with the bartender could’ve been thrown out with no loss, for example) so it’s not as if they aren’t getting their fair shot.
