The Middle, Happy Endings, Cougar Town, and Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23: Scoop from TVLine's Matt Webb Mitovich

Here's some scoop on The Middle, Happy Endings, Cougar Town, and Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 from TVLine's Matt Webb Mitovich's weekly column Matt's Inside Line for the week of 9/14/12.

Sitcom Quickies | As previously scooped here, The Middle‘s Sue will be charged with – and take great pleasure in – mentoring a freshman lass (played by Bunheads‘ Bailey Buntain). Thing is, the new girl stands to do just fine on her own. “[Bailey's character] arrives in pretty great shape, but Sue mentors her nonetheless,” says show boss Eileen Heisler. “An all-around winner who’s assigned Sue as a mentor!” …. Now that Happy Endings has cast Christopher MacDonald (Harry’s Law) and Julie Hagerty (Airplane!) as Alex and Jane’s parents, you may wonder: to what end? In the very funny half-hour introducing the Kerkoviches (no relation!), Jane will labor to get a laugh out of her dad while Brad pulls it off effortlessly (if not with diminishing returns), while Alex debates telling her folks that she’s back with onetime-groom Dave…. Cougar Town newlyweds Jules and Grayson will butt heads over last names – namely, why Jules won’t take his. (Scrabble tiles amusingly come into play)…. That B—- in Apartment 23 will set June up with an old pal who on a good day is a bit loony, but in this specific scenario has gone off his meds. Eep.
