Things Wrion Likes

That you might like too

Happy Endings

Original Facebook post, pre-Tumblr:

This week I’m recommending everyone watch Happy Endings.

 Like “Better Off Ted” it has a deceptively dumb name, but it’s really great. It’s not as ambitious as Community or as sweet as Parks and Rec, but it might have the highest laugh/minute ratio of anything I watch, and it’s definitely the show I have to rewind the most because I was laughing over jokes. It’s a fun, breezy show with a cast that has tapped into an amazing chemistry and rhythm, and you can drop in at any time with almost zero catching up. As an entry point, I’d recommend this week’s “The Code War” the Halloween episode. Wednesday nights on ABC.

Carissa likes it too!

I found this show on Hulu and watched the whole first season in like two days and then I told Wrion about it. Just so you all know how cool I am and what good taste I have.

The League

Here’s my original, pre-Tumblr Fackbook post recommending The League:

Do think I have good taste in TV? Are you not watching The League? If you answered yes to both, then you should really start watching. Unmatched improvised one-up-manship (one-uppery?), and this is coming from someone who can’t stand fantasy football in real life. I wouldn’t call it “Community Brilliant”, but it’s easily “It’s Always Sunny Consistently Funny.”


Recommendations from two ladies (one of whom I’m married to):

I am a lady and I like this show about dudes bro-ing out and talking about football. It’s that funny.

The only thing I hate more than football is TALKING about football, and yet…I LOVE THIS SHOW!
