  • Hey everyone, I was really pleased to be invited onto the TVx3 Podcast last week to talk comedy. As you know I don't get to podcast about comedy very often so this was a rare chance to talk The Office, Parks and Rec, Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother, Modern Family and The Middle. You'll get to hear lots of positivity from me which makes a nice change and I had a great time with hosts Jason (http://www. tvaholic. com/[http://www. tvaholic. com/]) and Amrie (http://www. mytakeontv. com/[http://www. mytakeontv. com/]). For all the information go here http://tvtimesthree. com/tvx3-e179-how-the-big-modern-office-community-parks/[http://tvtimesthree. com/tvx3-e179-how-the-big-modern-office-community-parks/] Enjoy, Robin

  • Credit HBO *Girls Season 2* Girls continues to be one of the most watchable shows on television but for unusual reasons. It's constantly breaking with the accepted TV formula that you need to present lovable characters that the audience can get behind. Instead Girls is ruthlessly determined to present Hannah Horvath as a selfish and whiny person regardless of the situation. Even as she fell deeper into a very sad bout of OCD Hannah was shown trying to manipulate her friends and family rather than being honest.

    Forgot to add this complaint about Arya/The Hound scene. The Hound didn't tie her up when he sleeps? I'm more surprise that Arya didn't book it when she had the chance, seeing as she considers him to ...

    Better than the last two episodes for sure. Annoying that we have two weeks wait for the next episode. The Good: Tyrion and Sansa's wedding definitely the best moment in this episode. Thank god,...

    I just want to add that I was so glad the odd Mexican brothers plot began to pay off here. The seeds are planted to bring on the Mexican Cartel in an even bigger way in the seasons to come. Than...
