It’s that time again, folks. The Emmy nominations will be announced on July 14, which means I have almost an entire month to flood this space with hopes, dreams and predictions about what could happen come nomination time. To kick things off, I’ll be bringing back the Dream Emmy Ballot. It’s something I did last … Continue reading 2011 Dream Emmy Ballot: Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series

Season Finale — Cougar Town, “Something Good Coming”
If there was ever a series tailor-made for the Hawaii vacation episode(s), it has to be Cougar Town, right? Taking a band of goofballs who sit around drinking and playing stupid games in Florida and putting them in another beautiful, warm location doesn't really change much, thankfully. "Something Good Coming" not only keeps the series … Continue reading Season Finale — Cougar Town, “Something Good Coming”
Cougar Town, “Free Fallin'”
Cougar Town is most certainly a goofy, sometimes weird comedy. I usually enjoy those zany parts of the series, but I'll be the first to admit that sometimes Town goes a little too far into the broad humor that reminds me of some of the lesser episodes of Scrubs. I mean those really bad episodes of … Continue reading Cougar Town, “Free Fallin'”
Cougar Town, “Damaged By Love”
It's pretty clear that the end of this season is going to primarily focus on Travis' destroyed state after his proposal. In theory, I am fine with that.

Producing 22 episodes of comedy isn't easy. Every season, it is probable that two or three episodes won't be completely awesome, even for the best series. These episodes don't necessarily have to be terrible, but they're just at a slightly lower quality than the rest. Last night's episode of Cougar Town, "You're Gonna Get It," … Continue reading Cougar Town, “You’re Gonna Get It”
Cougar Town, “Baby’s a Rock N’Roller”
Most of the time, growing up sucks. And even though we tend to look at adulthood in a specific sort of way in this culture, people can still have a lot of growing up to do well into their 40s. This is especially true for television comedy characters, who are often broad, wacky versions of … Continue reading Cougar Town, “Baby’s a Rock N’Roller”
Cougar Town, “Walls”
Our long national nightmare is over folks, Cougar Town is back! ABC took the series off the air to try to jump-start Matthew Perry's career (which I don't think worked), but for all our waiting, the network has done the nice thing and given the series a twofer week, starting with last night's "Walls" and … Continue reading Cougar Town, “Walls”
