Two Broke Girls With One Contradiction
I live in DC, where the people are nerdy and we still form lines at cupcake shops. We’re dorky. Okay. I admit it. But I also live among the smug and deceptively pretentious. I’ve been to Brooklyn, too. I’m familiar with stereotypes. Therefore, let me judge.
In the new CBS laugh-tracked comedy, 2 Broke Girls, a sarcastic bitchy brunette, “Max,” played by Kat Dennings, is poor and full of sass, living in the birthplace of hipsterville, Williamsburg, yet dreams of opening a cupcake store.
Max isn’t a hipster herself, as she easily mocks two wool-hat wearing scrawny boys, but she sure isn’t subscribing to Real Simple either. Heeding information solely from the inaugural episode, I concur that the too-cool Max should be too-cool for the tired cupcake hysteria, making 2 Broke Girls a new sitcom with an already faulty old-trend.
Fuck cupcakes.

aaaah so true. clearly she should be running a pie shop. or a poptail stand. nice try, CBS.
paris hilton over there seems to like her cupcakes, too. (ps – i was going to say pies!)
i’d like more milkshake stands to exist. (boozy milkshakes wouldn’t be too bad either)
This review is bullshit! This show is full of laughs and has a great cast.
