Whitney

• Season 1, Episode 2 “First Date” [Sept. 29, 2011]

Here’s yet another not-great 2010s sitcom, fronted by Whitney Cummings (who at this writing in 2025 is transforming into a right-wing hack comic). The show didn’t do well and this scene might tell you why. Tired humor around male-female relationships with beautiful people who don’t work real jobs but have great apartments and fabulous lives. Also college will make you temporarily gay. There’s hardly a trope this show doesn’t bring back from the dead.

Thanks to Dorie Bofshever on this one.
