Shit Girls Say About The Show Girls. It was too accurate not to post…

  1. Creating a viral meme about Hilary Clinton can get you a job at Buzzfeed.
  2. “Girls” only raked in 1.1 million viewers last night, lower than Eastbound & Down’s season/series finale, which came in at 1.6 million.

Okay, first - this is what social media news sources are talking about when they say social media can get you a job. LinkedIn, Twitter, and so on, are baseline standards. If you don’t have them, you’re behind; if you do have them, then you’re (usually) tied with everyone else. At least in this city anyway. Second, how did “Girls” do so poorly in viewership?! The fact that Eastbound & Down beat it is ridiculous - after watching that show for the first time yesterday, I don’t understand the draw at all. Just me?

I just watched the first episode of Lena Dunham’s Girls, and like many, am already enamored.

I saw Scott Adsit from 30 Rock on the N train today! The guy across from me both took one look at him and had a geeky (but quiet) freak out together. It was apparently too much for him though, so he went over and introduced himself.
(Rainy days like today are the great equalizer in this city. No one can get a cab when it’s gross out, and then EVERYONE has to flock to the subway.)

This sums up my experience watching Homeland last weekend. In less than 24 hours, I watched the entire first (and only) season.

Believe me, I know that is in no way healthy. But seriously, it’s an amazing show. And I never claimed to be good at that thing call “restraint,” now did I?

a clip from an An Idiot Abroad aka my new favorite show. hysterical. gotta love british humor.

also, who’s shocked that out of all the clips, i pick the one where he’s being force-fed toad? typical.
