I think Anna Faris's show Mom actually felt like an Anna Faris show with the beginning of the third episode.

It's kind of goofy, sentimental, and earnest overall, but that first-act sequence was actually well-done, I thought.

Still, now that Christy has broken up with her boss, it's very easy to see the whole workplace side of this show being written out. That might hurt the show, though, I think. Christy needs to leave the home set sometimes, and bouncing from job to job could just add an unneeded complexity.

Oh, I watched part of the latest Super Fun Night. The humiliation of Kimmie trying to lie about herself and her roommates got a bit too uncomfortable for me.

Show I weirdly like: Trophy Wife. I've seen a couple of episodes so far, and I might still get sick of it. It's very broad, but something about the contrasts between the main character and her stepkids' mothers is kind of fun for me. I don't know, I don't have or want kids, but this was funny a couple of times.

Hm.

Yeah, I don't know, maybe I should just go back to public affairs shows.
