i'm having a really hard time putting this into words so here's my deranged and incoherent ramble:

abed being in cougar town is the most incredible fourth wall break ever. it's not deadpool talking to the camera kind of intense demolition of the wall or abed saying they might be on a tv show levels of gently tapping on that wall, it's more like the wall just kinda crumbled but no one acknowledged it or cared. the prescence of abed as a character on cougar town is the show acknowledging itself as a tv show whilst having none of the characters interact with that knowledge. they literally just have this one scene where they just tell us "yeah this is a show, none of this is it's own universe, these characters are not real, in every universe and continuity imaginable, this is a television programme." holy fuck this is wrinkling my brain so goddamn hard i cannot explain in coherent speak what i'm trying to explain so just like think about this occurence for more than 5 seconds and your brain shall be wrinkled in that same way as mine has been.

These two would be best friends. I will not elaborate but if anyone has seen both of these shows you’re more then welcome to elaborate

Would these two be friends? Probably not, but i would have a threesome with them

So, I rewatched the first two seasons of Cougar Town.

A few days ago I was laying on my couch full of ibuprofen and with a hot water bottle, waiting for the period pain to go away and unable to concentrate on reading or watching anything that required paying attention, and I saw it was on Disney+. Low stakes funny comedy show that I enjoyed in the past, felt like the perfect fit.

And it was, meaning it worked: it kept me entertained enough during three days of cramps and jelly brain.

What I remembered about it: that it started terrible (I actually dropped it after a couple of episodes) but then found itself and became fun and endearing (I picked it up again because people were saying nice things about it).

And it's kinda true, but also: wow. 2009 was a different era. Yes there are funny random bits, and yes there are moments of genuine connection between characters and a lot of relationship building between all members of the cul de sac crew, but to get to them you have to sit through A LOT of diet culture bullshit, heteronormative bullshit, gender essentialism bullshit, classist bullshit. Everyone is mean at least 50% of the time. These people say they love each other but spend SO MUCH of their time making each other miserable. They construct the most complicated rituals to allow themselves to express feelings for their friends. When they don't, they are endlessly mocked by the other characters and the narrative (I'm just going to say: Andy. And leave it at that).

And it's just... I genuinely liked this show when it aired. Yes, I never thought it was excellent tv, but I had fond memories of it, and even recommended it to others. I wouldn't now! Times changed and I knew it but I didn't know it know it. Strange feeling.
