What Do You Think of the Word "Blog"?
I found myself watching TiVoed episodes of Miss Guided this weekend and got a kick out of a scene where a student's gossip blog creates drama on campus. Namely, the main character, Becky, learns she's at the bottom of the "do-able" teachers' list and complains about the site to the principal, calling it a "blurgh." The principal, who is played by the dorky SNL alum, Chris Parnell, says "it's a blog, Becky, not a 'blurgh.'" It was a hilarious scene, but I couldn't help but wince.
TV Tonight: Miss Guided
These days, every network seems to be developing a comedy niche. NBC has its single-camera, deadpan workplace comedies like The Office and 30 Rock; CBS has its laugh-tracked, massively appealing Monday night lineup led by Two and a Half Men; Fox has its Sunday night animation block. ABC, though, has been largely left out of the game, gambling with shows like Cavemen and canceling other series that were wonderfully strange but little-watched (The Knights of Prosperity).
"Veronica" Creator Moves to ABC Sitcom
With "Veronica Mars" now officially dead — despite a last-ditch marshmallow and candy campaign by fans — series creator Rob Thomas is moving onto his next project: ABC's new sitcom "Miss Guided."
The sitcom, which ABC picked up for a mid-season premiere at May's Upfronts, stars Judy Greer as a guidance counselor who returns to work at her old high school, only to find that her high school nemesis has also joined the faculty. Thomas will run the show as executive producer.
