Happy Mother’s Day! And we don’t mean that in a Justin Timberlake/Susan Sarandon way, you pervs. In honor of the women who changed our stinky diapers and only allowed us to watch PBS (just us? Cool Mom, cool…) here’s a list of our favorite TV Mommas. Enjoy, and remember to call your mother. Or else.
In the midst of all of the southern charm and small-town hijinks, Hart of Dixie’s Magnolia Breeland has transformed before our eyes from a drunken, teenage debutante with attitude to a complex, ambitious, family-loving ‘belle… with attitude, of course. But, she didn’t do it all on her own. Meet actress and singer Claudia Lee, the 15-year-old fireball who has taken Lemon’s Little Sister and given her a life of her own. We got a chance to...

Of course, we’ll leave some space for an additional entry or two after the season finale this Sunday (it looks like it’s going to be a bloodbath.) But for now, here are the top ten in all their gory glory…...
Since St. Patty’s Day is a drinking holiday, we decided to pick the characters we’d most like to grab a brew with… or five. Because alcoholism is nothing if not a celebration of impossible whims that you drink to forget! Check out our picks and let us know who you want to to make some shamrock-infused, booze-fueled bad decisions with. Sláinte!
Since NBC announced that Community would be going on a prolonged, indefinite hiatus after its Christmas episode in December, the show’s cast and its fans have been on a crusade to rally support for the ratings-challenged program. From endless pieces of fan-art to occupations of NBC, impeccably reasoned analysis to the sobs of Gillian Jacobs, Community‘s fandom has spent the last few months asserting its place in the pantheon of “save a show” campaigns....
