I cannot believe my favorite new sitcom, Best Friends Forever, is being cancelled! For those of you who are not watching it: you should. If you like women. And comedy. And brilliance. Watchitwatchitwatchit. It's online. Lennon Parham and Jessica St. Clair write and star in this incredible show. It has the fast pace of "Happy Endings," and, I would argue, even more heart with its snappy repartee.
That said, it won't do any good to just watch it online. If you haven't watched it, first do that, so that you can get behind me on this. I have two ideas right now:
1. We should bombard NBC with stuff. Like how they sent peanuts to save that show, Jericho. (Wasn't it Jericho?) We could send... I have no idea what we'd send. Steel Magnolias DVDs? Best Friend bracelet charms? Ooh that second one could be cute.
2. Tina Fey, Whitney Cummings, any women TV powerhouses/showrunners out there: help your sisters out! This is a great show, and y'all need to support each other, please!
BFF depicts female friendships in a way that is both startlingly honest and really, really funny. So support it, watch it, complain about how it was cancelled, and maybe it'll come back...? Wishful thinking?
