That’s what I delivered for the first thirteen episodes—a baker’s dozen of shows that were critically acclaimed, but disastrously under-watched. The ratings are so low it feels like I could personally email every viewer and ask for tips for new storylines. Hell, I could visit their homes and serve them pancakes for breakfast while shooting the breeze on what they like and don’t like about Lane and Amanda, my hero and heroine.
My stomach rumbles as I lock the door, wanting those pancakes.
As I head toward the kitchen, shock still rippling through me, I wonder if there is un-mined comedy in pancakes. Some hilarious bit about that time Amanda went to a friend’s house and her friend served those terrible pancakes from Trader Joe’s that taste like soap, and Amanda called them soap cakes, and that becomes a bit on what to do when a host serves awful food?
Best friends and former roomies Amanda and Lane would laugh about it, and it would help them buddy-comedy their way back to living under the same roof.
But as I turn on the coffee maker, I don’t know if soap cakes are funny.
As the coffee drips, I don’t even know if Speedos are funny. And I should know the answer to that.
Most of all, I don’t have a clue how the hell I’m going to pull this off in a mere six episodes.
The ironic thing is that deep down in the squishy, soft part of my heart, I knew this was coming.
But knowing something is coming doesn’t make it hurt any less.
With a cup of joe in hand, I flip open my laptop and try to play with all the ways a lime-green Speedo can spawn humor.
