I heart fall

NYC is crisp and cool these days. I broke out the black boots and the cozy sweaters. It's fall! My favorite time of year. Turning leaves, pumpkin everything! I've been watching two new funny shows to honor fall sweeps.

Glee- watched b/c everyone was talking about it. Sort of like High School Musical meets The Office. The awkward moments of high school brilliantly counterbalanced by professional song and dance sequences. Characters interesting but flat; if they can make them more dynamic I will keep watching.

Party Down- skated completely under the cultural radar. Show about a tiny catering company in LA. Very accurate, which makes it hilarious, and also very awkward. By god, this show had to happen one day because so much drama goes down during catering, and everyone is an artistic type. best line (which I hear all the time): "we are not waiters, we are actors!"
Plus: produced by Rob Thomas of Veronica Mars glory, so the show is populated by former VM actors. Yay Logan! and Dick! and Meg!

Both shows feature Jane Lynch (she actually left Party Down to do Glee), so that's a plus. She's frakkin hilarious.
