This Week in Sitcoms, Or What I’m Watching
I watched all four of my chosen sitcoms this week and pretty much feel the same way as last week. I am ready to drop Samantha Who at this point, cause I’m just bored.
Its unfortunate that because of the strike, The Big Bang Theory and Back To You will be done after this week. At least for the time being.
I thought Big Bang Theory was great again. I loved that they centered on Rajesh and that we got to see him interact with Penny more. He’s nearly as funny to me as Sheldon, albeit in his own silent way. I’m confronted each and every week with something I know I would do or say, which makes me feel even more of a geek than I already do. And yet it’s a good thing. I think.
Carpoolers was pretty funny this week as well, and I loved the little bit at the end, with the video of them smashing into the cash machine. Especially when Gracen’s bat hit Dougie where it really hurts and you see him dancing around in the background. We had to rewind that and watch it a few times. I really liked that not one of them could keep the secret about the car fire. It makes them into people you know are really good at heart. I think I might actually miss this show when it’s gone.
Although Back To You had its moments, I didn’t think this ep was as good as some of the other eps so far. I was kinda sad, too, cause my husband has been wanting to watch it for a while and he picked this ep. It won’t leave a big hole in my life or anything, but I am a bit sad it won’t be on again for a while.
So, any ideas? What sitcoms out there should I try to catch the reruns of while the strike lasts?
Samantha Who, The Big Bang Theory, Back To You, Carpoolers

I actually caught Big Bang Theory this week. It was pretty funny. I love Rajesh’s parents on the computer. Wasn’t the father the guy from Seinfeld? The one who owned the Indian restaurant?
Reruns of King of Queens are a must during the strike.
