DVR Purge 3/16-3/19

This is going to be brief this time and probably for the next week since I'm distracted by basketball. A really good Tuesday though.

Shameless "Frank the Plumber"
Holy shit. I jumped out of my seat when Karen got hit. Overall, I'm glad she's gone because she doesn't fit well with the rest of what the show is. I do wish she could've had maybe one more episode of torpedoing Lip's life. It'll be interesting seeing how this plays out. In other stories, that was tough to watch with Ian at the end.

The Walking Dead "Prey"
I like the third week in a row of sidequests. I'm ready now for some shit to go down now. Two episodes left in the season (I think). I'm ready to see how this plays out. This was the most I've liked Andrea in a while.

Californication "Mad Dogs and Englishmen"
Nothing like the return of Eddie Nero to give us a crazy episode. A good episode in an uneven season.

House of Lies "Liability"
Clyde with a conscience. Who knew? I also think I'm supposed to care more about Monica falling apart than I actually do.

How I Met Your Mother "The Fortress"
-I think the writers of this show have the same impression of Downton Abbey as I do.
-Most of the gags about Barney's apartment felt like they have all season: leftover gags from when Barney was single. I was tickled by the smoke detectors though.

Go On "Go for the Gold Watch"
So, how long in T.O. in the cast? He was funny enough, but I don't like that it's coming at the expense of Carrie. This was one of the best jugglings of the large cast they've done all season. I'm not convinced they can do it regularly, but this was certainly a successful case of it.

New Girl "Quick Hardening Caulk"
I've come to accept Jess and Nick's impending coupling since they've had so many good episodes since their kiss and haven't avoided the subject. This week had Jess getting increasingly attracted to Nick for showing the slightest amounts of maturity, which I found hilarious. Even funnier? Winston asking if a number 2 would work. I hope this isn't the last we see of Odette Annable.

The Mindy Project "Mindy's Birthday"
-The opening tag: loved it. I still hate the music in the opening credits though.
-So, they've cut down the main cast yet it was impressive how many familiar faces they put together for the party.

Cougar Town "Saving Grace"
All the talk of faith rubbed me the wrong way. The entire episode was saved by the dodgeball scene. I'm sorry, but Jules getting hit in the head with a dodgeball repeatedly was hilarious.
