Quotation Marks – Stinky nuts, bananas, and a good Pinot

The Olympics have made it tough to find something -- anything -- original on TV, but some shows have persevered to bring us laughs. Hang in 'til next week, folks!

It’s been a sad two weeks for TV. The Olympics have killed our February, our snow days, and our spirits. But while it hasn’t exactly been business as usual on the big “four,” renegades like USA Network — among others — have continued to work hard to bring us something more entertaining than their counterparts over at the USA Committee (see that little play on USA?). It’s not quite the same without a tidbit from Brick Heck, Michael Scott, or Barney Stinson, but at least it’s a start.

Just a few more days everybody. Hang in there!
