TV Triumphs and Fails

So this week was the first cancellation of shows that I was watching. Free Agents with Kathryn Hahn got the axe. I'm okay with that, I liked it, but thought it really should have been a lot better. So at least that's one less show to watch each week.

Parenthood was great this week, with Max and Jabbar fighting over Max making him sit with him at lunch. Good storyline. I also like Drew and his girlfriend, cause its so adorable. And yay for more Sarah and Mr Cyr....or whatever his real name is. I could have lived without the Zeke storyline though...ick

I loved the Grey's 'Boys ep'. It actually worked really well. Although the fact that they all spent most of the ep building Derek's deck was a little odd. But Sloan and Derek fighting over Avery...and the Chief (cause he will always be The Chief) helping out Alex with an excuse for being late....were pretty funny. Overall I didn't hate it at all, like I thought I would.
-Oh and Sloan letting baby Sofia role off the couch and under the table was kinda hilarious. And that geek being in love with April was adorable...till she didn't know of Hobbits.

PPP was okay, but not as fun as the 1st ep of the season. Cooper was being stupid! How many times is he going to get into trouble?! - But I did like the little call-backs with his attempts at Charlotte's password. He's lucky Charlotte is a good problem solver, otherwise her job could have been on the line!
Amelia has apparently moved into Addison's house and Addison has moved in with Sam...so I guess that's one way of saving on sets. Amelia is sober, she's gonna get to cut....and so now she's drinking again....Boo. Bad Amelia. And Poor Violet...she's stuck - not being able to work and dealing with a grumpy Pete.
Still not loving Pineapple Guy...or Fiji Guy as I think we are now calling him. Maybe he'll grow on me. I'll try to like him better. -I think my fave scene of the ep was Violet and Sheldon gossiping about him and Addy.
-I also forgot to mention that it was weird watching last week's season premiere without Ness...since we have watched the last 3 season prems together. - not to mention pretty much all the eps from the 2nd half of last season. But I'd adjusted by this week.

P-Rex was hilarious as usual. I loved that Leslie was born in Eagleton....but I saw that coming the second they said she wasn't born in Pawnee....Chris Pratt was hilarious!!!!!!
Community was weird this week...too much Chang...and it was super creepy!
Modern Family was good, but Cam and Mitchell's storylines are getting annoying.
Up All Night was good again this week. I'm definitely loving the show, but would probably still okay if it got canned.
There were also 2 eps of Raising Hope this week for some reason. The Tuesday ep was a bit meh, but the Wednesday ep was awesome! I love Sabrina!
Oh and Melissa McCarthy was HILARIOUS on SNL! Loved it!
