Season 2 - Episode 1
E4 (UK)
E4 have made the excellent decision of starting season 2 of Happy Endings right after season 1 finished up on the channel. This should insure that the show, which is rating and reviewing well in the USA, keeps its momentum going.
And the second season starts with Penny buying a condo and declaring it the year of Penny. Of course, this doesn't really go to plan for her, when she believes her new house has a "spinster curse" on it, when she hears that it was two old unmarried women who had owned it before her. After finding her DVR full of The View and The Good Wife (all MAx's doing), several cats inside (her weirdo new neighbour's doing), and a bunch of other coincidental occurences. By the end of the episode, Alex is moving in (due to setting her own place on fire - which we'll get to) and all is well. Especially the 1920s themed party. Which looked awesome.
Elsewhere, Alex and Dave decide to celebrate the first anniversary of their almost wedding by being completely honest with each other. It's hard to explain without context, but this ends up with Alex getting a snake from an animal shelter, making huge amounts of her horrible soup and burning down her apartment. While Dave makes up with his idiot old friend, takes up frisbee golf again, and revisits his old (awful) 16 minute love ballad. It's nonsense, but very funny nonsense, and all mediated by an increasingly agitated Jane. And Max and Brad get into a tiff when Max thinks Brad is avoiding hanging out with him. Of course he's not really, and it all works out fine. Aww.
Happy Endings has started its second season very strongly, and I look forward to seeing a full 22 episode run this year.
