6 Shows You Shouldn’t Check Out This Fall

Last week we reviewed a few shows you should definitely give a good look-see, you know, just in case the morning water cooler is like, “Did You See 2 Broke Girls Last Night…Awesome!” And you really don’t want to be the one who says all frantically, “Oh, no.

Well, my goodness, what’s wrong with you? Why is your head down on your desk? Okay, okay, let’s uncurl your fingers from that stapler. No, no, we’re not sure you’re ready to hold your, “Best Employee in the World” mug right now…not until you tell us what happened. Oh, wait…what does that email say?

Start somewhere at the beginning. Continue reading
