Harry's Law: or Demographic Guilt

The David Kelley show, "Harry's Law," starring Kathy Bates, has been cancelled, in spite of its stellar ratings. One of NBC's highest rating programs (acc. to the Nielsen reports, which I am teaching myself about through wikipedia), it has never done well enough with the 18-49 y.o. demographic. Nuts! It's all about the Benjamins I guess. A personal "sorry" to David Kelley -- I grew up loving Ally McBeal and The Practice! And as a member of that 18-49 community, I send my condolescences and my apologies for never having watched Harry's Law. My mom says it's great. In other news: who watches The Good Wife? Can you recommend it? I haven't watched it, but I have a sense that I'll be hooked if I let myself start watching it.

Burnin' Down the House!

Caught in a final paper whirlwind, but I felt the need to mention how much I am looking forward to the web series, Burning Love, debuting June 4. Ken Marino is a completely unvain performer, and every once in a while, you see him in something like a Will & Grace rerun or, well, this, and you realize: Oh right, you're handsome!

How could Rob Thomas (creator of Veronica Mars and Party Down) not be involved in this show? It features Marino, Adam Scott, Kristen Bell, and Ryan Hansen! Party Down fans will be aware that there is buzz about a possible film, and while I'd love that, for the time being, I'm satisfied with this impending web series. I don't watch The Bachelor, but I've seen it once, and I'm ready to get my parody on.

Kathryn Hahn Sighting (in Girls)

There she is!

I love celebrity sightings, even when it's only onscreen... so long as I wasn't expecting it.

I would love a buddy sitcom (or a buddy movie) starring Hahn and Judy Greer, wouldn't you? Thoughts on such a show to follow...
