TV Review: 2 Broke Girls - "And the Disappearing Bed"

Season 1 - Episode 6
CBS (US)

I said last week that 2 Broke Girls was a show that was finally showing signs of finding its feet. With "And the Disappearing Bed", they continue to improve week on week with another strong episode with some really good progression for the two main characters.

Again, as mentioned last week, I'm really enjoying the chemistry between Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs as Max and Caroline, and this week, their dynamic takes a turn, as it's Caroline who takes the lead, encouraging Max to promote her cupcakes, while deciding to build herself a fold up bed. The subplot with barman and artist Johnny is a little clunky, but has some potential to grow in upcoming episodes (and also allowed some more Chesnut based humour), while Max's other boss Peach is back, and as airheaded as ever.

I really liked the dynamic between Max and Caroline this week, their unlikely friendship is really taking a nice path, and the jokes - while still feeling a bit forced in places - are getting funnier. I hope for more to come next week.
