As much as it pains and nauseates me to say, I kinda liked it.

Either Ned Lannamann now writes for Boston.com or there are Ned Lannamanns in every city in America.

Off topic: have you seen the new show Free Agents? It's set in Portland! Just like Portlandia! And it's awful! Just like Portlandia!

Will Portland ever be the setting for a good sitcom, or is this the curse of Hello, Larry?

I...I liked it too Joneser. And I HATE Zooey McCupcakedreamz

Hopefully, ZD will meet the same fate as Bernie Mac. He's still alive right?

So.... it's Big Bang Theory with better looking dudes?

@ 3: Right?! Somehow liking her show makes her MORE annoying.

I guess everyone is ignoring the fact that her sister has already conquered the uncomfortable and attractive nerd factor with her sister who has RULED it on "Bones" for years. There is an amazing gene pool with these women. I'm really glad to see the sis on her own show now instead of having to be a messed up cousin. Love both of them.

Sorry, very redundant about the sister part. Just happy to see another one of them on the little screen.

I don't get it. Hannah Simone is also on that show and everyone's swooning over Zooey?! Internet nerds, what the hell is wrong with you?!

@dmitrir: Can we sell a sitcom called "Hello, Carrie"? Carrie Fisher (played by Carrie Fisher) moves to Portland in order to stalk Daniel Baldwin and winds up broke and living in a house with a group of young nerds (half of whom are Star Wars fanatics and the other half anarchist vegan fixie-riders). Carrie has to get a job as personal assistant to the personal assistant of Paul Allen's Portland-based personal assistant. In the closing scene of the pilot she ends up drenched in red Karo syrup in an industrial accident at Voodoo Doughnut while picking up a gross of cock-n'-balls for Allen's PA's PA's PA.

Have your people call my people.

@Todd: phew, for a second there, I thought "Hello, Carrie" would star Carrie Brownstein. Anyway, I'd rather see Carrie as the new intern at an alternative newsweekly that's an alternative to the other alternative newsweekly. Her co-workers are all super wacky and the boss is CRAZY! It'd be hilarious.

@dmitrir: Huh, sort of a "Carrie Tyler Moore" schtick then? OK, one episode could feature an eccentric billionaire buying the paper and having the next issue translated entirely into Esperanto before it goes to press. Then his fortune could evaporate and the business could be sold on the sidewalk in front of the office building to the only person around with any actual cash, a Street Roots vendor.

In fact, every episode there could be a new owner of the paper. COMEDY GOLD!
13
All Carrie would need is a wacky neighbor. Is Bill Daily still working (or even alive)? He was the ur-wacky neighbor.
14
And the eccentric billionaire could be played by Anthony Head, just because he deserves to be on something better than Free Agents.
15
Whatever celebrity was in town would be forced to play that week's owner, even if we had to chase them through all the boutiques on Hawthorne or NW 23rd.
16
Also, I'm thinking Udo Kier as Wilhelm Steiner Humpfkrieg, the wildly eccentric and occasionally sticky editor. If we can afford him. If not, Walt Curtis.

Todd -- We watch that show all the time. That is why to Mercury moved to the new studio. I think the URL is something like www.portlandmercury.com/securityCam5.html.

The reason blogtown is so laggy is that it has become a hit
18
Todd, it sounds perfect now. You start working on the first few scripts, and I'll start shopping it around Hollywood. We're going to be rich!
19
Big brain finds Zooey incredibly annoying and repellent. Unfortunately, little brain doesn't agree. Sigh. :-(
20
her clitoris is a Skittle.

She really has a unique sense of style. Here is some behind the scenes footage from a recent Fox photo shoot with Zooey: http://bit.ly/Uxr1av

Enjoy the video!
