Recaps

I know I've been plugging these recaps forever, but they're so amazing you guys! Like this one, I snorted. I laughed so hard that I snorted.

"Um. Oh, yeah. Spencerina [ed note: this is Richard's nickname for Spencer's sister, Stephanie]. She was dating this guy named Cameron who I think works in the professional idiot business. I think he's a top executive, actually. Corner office. Idiot secretary, idiot copy machine. Just wall to wall idiots. So that's nice for him. It's nice to work with like-minded people. But Spencerina was having problems. You see she can't quite figure out the alchemy that is Getting Airtime. Should she be dating? Not dating? Friendly with Spencer? Not friendly? Lauren's homegirl? A whispery snitch? You want the cold hard truth, Spencerina? Frankly, be prettier. There's no real science here, my love. It's just that simple (and that hard). Also maybe learn how to express a coherent mind grape. Just in general. For general life's sake.Anyway she ended up trying to cry when she dumbly broke it off with Cameron, Idiot at Law.


So that was a scene that happened on this show once. I like to think that the people who cobble this little shitshow together are just like doing each other's hair and smoking cigarettes and drinking sangria at this point and not really paying attention to the fact that the experience of watching the show has become something like walking slowly through a carwash. If they are trying, like really hard, to make f'ing Spencerina interesting, well then shame on them."



These recaps, as a commenter noted, give you the gift of 28 extra minutes in which to live your life. I mean, if you aren't parked in front of your TV anyway.
