On Why More Women Should Write Comedy: A Mathematical (But Not Boring) Study
The more I think about it, the more I realize that basically they basically gender segment television into dramas for girls (lifetime, most shows with hospitals in) and comedies for boys (comedy central, adult swim). But then all the "good" dramas like Mad Men and the Wire are about hyper-masculine shit like being a violent criminal or Don Draper. Also I'm noticing that most competitive reality shows are marketed primarily at dudes (except, like, project runway) and "passive" reality shows at chicks (except, like, pawn stars). Basically what I'm saying is, I'm sick of ads for guys on all the shows I watch (but then I wouldn't be satisfied with ads for ladies either, as Target: Women taught us). Conspiracy theories (and interior design) aside, this article was in fact inspiring and I am going to make a conscious effort to remember funny ideas I have and try to write something about them.

On What's Happening with NBC's Comedy Lineup?
oh man, I do not know what I'll do if they cancel Community. I've watched the first season 5 or 6 times now, twice with commentary on. If there isn't more material for my addiction, and it's Outsourced's racist fault, I'll be quite peeved.

On The Dan Harmon School of Comedy Writing
oh, this is great! I had absorbed a little of this stuff from the DVD commentaries and that one "behind the scenes" where he gave a really broad writing process overview, but this is golden. Well spotted, sir.
