Nashville

the Rayne James
Juliette Barnes Tour
Clusterfuck City

Congratulations to ABC for creating a show that I never thought I would like. Nashville has successfully made me  a) wish lived there and b) listen to country music.

Connie Britton is probably one of the greatest actress on the planet, not gonna lie.

This show revolves around Britton acting as Rayne James a country artist whose personal life is a complete disaster but her professional one brings people to their knees.

Callie Khouri the show's creator who won an Academy Award for Thelma and Louise proves that a simple concept for a TV show like Nashville can be great even to a New Yorker like me.

Fun fact, the guy who plays Deacon used to be on Whose Line Is It Anyway? Simple fun fact, but I love it.

"Young Adult"


Young Adult:

Minneapolis Buddy
Mixtape Drums Action Figures
Dulce Cabriolet

She's so great though. (Source)
            Seriously, people need to tell you how depressing movies are before they tell you to watch them. They need to give you a fair warning so you’re prepared.

She is the queen. (Source)
            Damn you, Mindy Kaling. Such a brilliant woman. Mindy Kaling is one of the greatest women in the world. When I grow up, I hope to be like her.
            Kaling used to write and act on The Office, and now her genius is used as the creator of The Mindy Project. She can practically do no wrong.

"Safety Not Guaranteed"


Safety Not Guaranteed haiku:

Ocean View Training
Washington Seattle Magazine
Time Machine Intern

            I adore Aubrey Plaza. I love Mark Duplass. So, the only logical conclusion I could come to in terms of Safety Not Guaranteed was that I would adore and love the movie at the same time because of them.
            I was right.
            Safety Not Guaranteed is not your typical love story.
            Darius (Aubrey Plaza) is a lonely and slightly depressed intern living at home with her single father. She attempts to get a paying job, while working as an intern but comes up unsuccessful.

"Jeff, Who Lives At Home"


Jeff, Who Lives At Home:

The Duplass Brothers
Paper airplane Porsche Fate
Kevin Destiny

Why yes, yes you do. (Source)
            It was proven in Knocked Up that Jason Segel could act like the best stoner alive. And he does is again in Jeff, Who Lives At Home.
            Segel plays Jeff, the unemployed son who lives in his mom’s basement, while he is contemplating fate and destiny. Granted, we see Jeff recording himself while sitting on a toilet. No big deal.
            But Jeff’s belief systems are more deep-rooted than just discussing how prolific the movie Signs and its director M. Night Shyamalan are.
            Jeff believes the universe is providing signs everywhere, and by just looking we will discover them.

"Beyond the Myth"


Beyond the Myth haiku:

American Pit
Bull Terrier B.S.L.
Misunderstood breed

How cute are puppies?! (Source)
            
            Nothing in life compares to pictures and videos of adorable puppies. You can be in such a shitty mood, come across some video of a puppy trying to run with a huge branch in its mouth and your heart will melt. This is unless you are a robot and void of human emotion.
            I am a huge animal lover. Animals have always been a massive part of my life.
            As of right now, I am the proud owner of two massive dogs. One of them is a black lab mix, the other is an American Pit Bull Terrier.

"Girls"


Girls haiku:

Neon mesh tank top
Laird Williamsburg
Psycho Song Adam

            I have seen Lena Dunham naked a lot more times than I ever thought I would.
That point aside, Lena Dunham is pretty fucking awesome. Vulgar language necessary.
            Dunham is the creator of Girls. The show that revolves around post-college twenty something year olds who are so lost that is borderlines on being just plain sad.
Oh Lena. (Source)
            
            I have been watching Girls since the premiere of the first episode. And I am not ashamed to admit it.

"White Collar"


White Collar haiku:


Neal Caffrey
FBI Masterpieces
Mozzie Kate Sam

            I am a sucker for a man in an impeccable suit. There is something so brilliant about that.
            I am also a sucker for FBI television shows. Especially ones that follow men dressed in impeccable suits. Because of this, White Collar is a win-win-win. We all win.
            Matt Bomer stars as Neal Caffrey, a brilliant art thief who is able to elude the FBI. Caffery is Special Agent Peter Burke’s white whale.
Neal Caffrey. I cannot. (Source)

Community haiku:

A-bed the A-rab
Gender-neutral mascot
Señor Chang Star burns



Have you ever pictured your life occurring as a film? If so, the show Community is for you. Granted this life as television/film concept is a small part of a bigger picture.

"Arrested Development"


Arrested Development haiku:

Ron Howard Meaby
Banana stand Ann Veal
Her Final Countdown
  

            If you threw a ton of amazingly awesome and talent funny actors into a show and gave them hilarious scripts and situations to depict, do you know what you’d wind up with? Arrested Development.
            Why is Arrested Development so awesome? Because it just is.
This is one of the best things ever. (Source)

It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia haiku:

Night crawlers Green man
McPoyle “Kitten mittens”
The dumpster baby

If you hear me singing the lyrics to "Dayman" please blame It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. More specifically, blame Charlie Kelly.



That scene will forever live with me. It will always be impossible to top.
