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.

Judy Greer Is Giving TV Another Go
Back in August, the overwhelming majority of you said that Judy Greer deserves more leading roles, and now she's getting one. The actress will be returning to the small screen in I'm With Stupid, a new comedy in development for ABC.
Based on the novel by Elaine Szewczyk, the show will focus on Manhattanite Kas Sienkiewicz (Greer), whose life takes an unexpected turn when she has a vacation fling with a park ranger in South Africa, and a few days later he shows up on her doorstep and moves in.
Ask a Geek Girl: Dealing With Annoying FB Status Updates
We probably all have one or two in our update feed: a friend whose Facebook status updates — for any reason — drive you nuts. Maybe they update too frequently, are serious oversharers, or post updates about things you just don't find interesting. Reader DefyAllLogic posted this etiquette question in our Ask a Geek Girl group:
"I've already created lists of 'friends' and 'not really friends' and have my homepage set to only show the 'friends' updates.
