the Fall comedy lineup on TYBC©...


All right folks, we claimed these names First. You hear? If we turn on the frigging CW and see these this Fall, there will be some ass kicked.

Sublet
revolving cast (Love, American Style-style), a weekly MTV-esque soapsy serial anthology, each week featuring two hot twentysomethings running an ad for a sublet, thereupon finding their prospective renter miraculously falling into bed with either or both of their respective landlords, with the whole steamy mess neatly wrapped up by 22 minutes later with a denouement either in favor (happy threesome settles in) or with the search continuing (applicant shown the door, or a shallow grave in the basement). regardless of the ending, the next week, it's a whole new couple, whole new sublet, whole new set of jiggly & ripped young shirtless things looking for that special Sublet.

The Intricates
and yes, we know "Intricates" is misspelled. our Honeypie was trying to slur out "Intricacies" in a drunken monologue, when out spilled "the Intricates" instead. We knew at once it was a Fall lineup title for the network. It's a great title. Evokes the Pixar Incredibles, yet the name just has an elusive seedier pedigree. It just feels trailer to us. And no, we have no idea what the show's about. Isn't that what writing staff is for? Big picture, people.

Better Than Cramps
Another great show name for which we cannot recall much else. But now it sounds to us like a choice reality show slant: our Hackers jack into various situations (workers with webcams, phone calls to people we can film indiscreetly) dangling exciting cash prizes for office workers who can come up with the best on-the-fly excuse to flee work without undue managerial scrutiny. "Cramps" being, of course, a failsafe way to get the Boss to hustle you out of their office and home with a Get Out of Work Free pass, no questions asked. But what's Better Than Cramps? Tune in to find out.
