I dunno about being transfixed with that show, but it is oddly a guilty
pleasure around here.

Seems like a bit over the line being a broadcast network show with some of
the jokes they fire off, but both me and melissa think it's pretty funny.

I think though it might of "jumped the shark" recently, the point of the
show, more or less, was them saving their tip money to some day open up a
cupcake store. That sort of was dropped in their lap with the neighbor
upstairs giving them $20K to do it.

I mean it won't take much to come up with something else, just seemed like a
rush to derail that plot line which the show seemed to focus on since it
started.
