Girl Don’t Need A Man To Get Into Hilariously Comedic Situations

2 Broke Girls, S2E14 “And Too Little Sleep”: A TV Review
This episode begins with Caroline reminding Max [and the rest of us] that “this isn’t the diner where everything comes with attitude and E. coli.” The fact that the cold open takes place in the cupcake...

2 Broke Girls, S2E15 “And the Psychic Shakedown”: A TV Review
Turns out 2 Broke Girls [and the other, better CBS sitcom] took some time off for some reason or another, so last week was a nice break for me. And now we’re back. SURPRISE: Max and Caroline are in the...

2 Broke Girls, S2E16 “And Just Plane Magic”: A TV Review
Now I normally don’t grade my reviews, but after watching this episode I wish I had started back with Episode 13. Without ratings there’s no way of indicating how huge the drop of quality is which...

2 Broke Girls, S2E17 “And the Broken Hip”: A TV Review
I finished writing my last review with sort of a bad taste in my mouth, so I decided to try approaching this episode with the same curious naivete with which I viewed Season 1. It’s a tried and true...

2 Broke Girls, S2E19 “And the Temporary Distraction”: A TV Review
I’m not going to lie, I’ve been infinitely grateful for the two week break CBS decided to give the show; working had made it hard to write these on Monday nights. It couldn’t have come at a better...

2 Broke Girls, S2E21 “And the Worst Selfie Ever”: A TV Review
CBS putting their sitcoms on hiatus is both a blessing and a curse. It’s a blessing because last week was my first full week of work, and I’m trying to get back into a schedule; it’s a curse because I...

2 Broke Girls, S2E22 “And the Extra Work”: A TV Review
Fair warning, I attended a screening of Iron Man 3 tonight in order to write a review for a children’s magazine. I enjoyed it a lot. I am not sure how my enjoyment of that movie will affect my...

2 Broke Girls, S2E23 “And the Tip Slip”: A TV Review
Let me begin by saying that this week’s cold open was a wonderful representation of the show as a well-run ensemble comedy. Max and Caroline are ragging on Has as usual, yes, but he retorts, and Oleg...

2 Broke Girls, S2E24 “And the Window of Opportunity”: A TV Review
I don’t think I can put into words how excited I was for this episode. Not only does my opinion about starting this all again this fall hinge on how this turns out, it also means a months-long hiatus...

2 Broke Girls, S3E2 “And the Kickstarter”: A TV Review
I’m of the personal opinion that the best episodes of 2 Broke Girls have always been the ones that focus around the protagonists trying to make money by any means necessary. While I’m fairly positive...

2 Broke Girls, S3E7 “And the Girlfriend Experience”: A TV Review
First thing’s first, I had every expectation that this episode was going to be super duper racist. It was not, but I’ll get to that in a bit because of how much of a big deal my second point is: Dang,...

2 Broke Girls, S3E8 “And the ‘It” Hole”: A TV Review
If there is anything that 2 Broke Girls excels in doing it’s creating outlandish characters. Whether it’s Dennis Endicott III, the self-proclaimed Thrift Shop Scout and Brooklyn’s Crazy Kitsch Genius...
