Brooklyn 99. YOU GUYS. YOU GUYS THIS SHOW.



Working as a team to solve a crime and out-vulture the Vulture. They take a bus together. They drink and come up with vengeance plans. BEST DETECTIVE FAMILY EVER OMFG.

Terry and his shooting lesson and perfectly shooting seven shots without thinking about it but not being able to do the eighth and procrastinating adorably about it. "I've been so worried about my own kids, I forgot about my stupid grown-up kids." TERRY I FUCKING LOVE YOU.

I LOVE THESE CHARACTERS SO FUCKING MUCH.

They are adorable. ADORABLE.

Well, except for Jake, but even he is getting a little bit not terrible.

Rosa and Catholic school. Rosa and her love of violence. Rosa and her EVERYTHING. Rosa and her ability to hate people and still find them sexy, men and women. Rosa is totally bisexual, right? Like, this is going to be canon, not just me wanting it to be real REALLY REALLY HARD.


Total Divas. I'm just finishing season one, and I don't even know what to do with this show. It is ridiculous and often terribly scripted, but some of the divas are a delight. The Bella twins. Particularly Nikki and all her dirty jokes and her vast collection of sex toys. This show has made me love John Cena. HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?! I am utterly, utterly charmed by Trinity (who is the diva Naomi). Nikki and Bryan Daniels (superstar Daniel Bryan), her twin sister's boyfriend/fiance/husband (depending on when you're watching) have such an adorable bromance. I watch this show and frantically text the Girl with ridic thoughts, and she finds it adorable. I love these silly characters so much. (Weirdness, the first four episodes of season two are on Hulu+ and season three, but not the rest of season two. That makes NO SENSE. And the WWE Network only has through the penultimate episode of the first season. Which is not helpful.)

Red Band Society. This show tries way too hard to tug on our heartstrings, which I don't like (who was that author always writing about teen cancer patients? McDaniels or something like that? I was never into her books either), but holy shit, I find the kids adorable and charming, and Octavia Spencer as Nurse Jackson is AMAZING AND WONDERFUL. I'm not such a fan of their completely unsubtle attempt at copying Clooney from E.R., not because I care about E.R., but because he's annoying. Whatever, adorable teens and their lives and their loves. I'll keep watching.

I tried Selfie, but couldn't get into the first two episodes and then I heard it was cancelled and gave up because if I did get attached, it would then be gone.

I'll be so interested to follow your feelings on Jake! I fucking HATED HIM at the start of the first season, and I have to admit that I actually like him now. He's still way the hell down at the bottom of my favorites list, but my roommate and I used to have knock-down drag-out Amy vs. Jake ("who's the worst character on Brooklyn 99") fights (SHE WAS WRONG, ROOMMATE WAS SO SO WRONG) and while I will still fight to the death for Amy Santiago, I don't think I'd defend my old "Jake Peralta is toilet scum" position anymore.

There's a ringing endorsement if I've ever written one, haha! ROSA IS THE BEST!!!!

I'm so sad over Selfie! I hated the first episode but it's gotten better as the season has progressed, and John Cho and Karen Gillan's faces are so wonderful. I'm really hoping they wrap it up well.
