If Peter Dinklage doesn't win best supporting actor somebody's going to be very sorry.

Well, it can't possibly be worse than Studio 60, right?  Right?

More As This Story Develops has a great cast. I also hope they keep the title.

I find it hard to believe he could ever write anything worse than that, then again I've found just about all of his TV writing to be of the garbage variety.

I don't know what that last part means as much, but I did not like Easy A much at all. Regardless, I casually watched Awkward. since it premiered because one of the guys on skins (US) suggested I follow some girls from the show on Twitter back in March or something. I felt like it always had its moments, sometimes working as a comedy and occasionally working as a drama, but never together. At the very least, it was never nearly as annoying/irritating as a show with that premise, made for MTV, and with the tone it uses should have been, which is why I kept watching. However, the episode that just aired on Tuesday was easily the best of the run so far and it's already become a show I have to watch now. Such a fantastic episode that blended comedy and drama really well. One of my surprises of the summer for sure. So yeah, dank that other people are watching it, and I hope it stays around beyond its second season.

Additionally, I wish MTV had renewed skins (US) because I did like that better.

Additionally additionally, Tamara is fantastic!

Does Kenny vs. Spenny get any better, or is the pretty much at the same level for its entire run?
