'Cougar Town': A Surprise From Grayson's Past Could Jeopardize The Future
A throwaway gag about being able to spot one of the young floozies Grayson slept with prior to getting engaged to Jules on "Cougar Town" (Tue., 8:30 p.m. ET on ABC) turned into so much more this week. After calling one out to prove a point as to how prevalent they are, this one proved harder to throw back into the sea.
She showed up shortly after again, only this time with a baby in tow. Grayson's baby. Even a paternity test confirmed it, and while it would seem to solve a lot of their baby issues, it left Jules feeling very uncertain. Grayson wanted kids, while Jules was pretty sure she wasn't ready to go through that whole thing again. So why wasn't she happy with this?
Her argument that it was because the child was with another person didn't hold up very well under scrutiny considering Travis is her child with another person. So she had to finally realize that after the shock had worn off, it really might just be the best thing for them. All the joys of a new baby, with as little of the responsibility as Jules wants to take on. After all, it's not her kid!

The worry over the fate of Community isn't just about the future of the study group at Greendale Community College: It's about whether comedies that are neither broad nor predictable will be able to make it on the biggest networks.
One of the most impressive things about "Cougar Town" is how many jokes and silly moments it can fit into a scene, while keeping the characters consistent and the enclosed world of the Cul De Sac Crew rooted in its own loopy reality.
The weirdest thing about my list of the best television shows of the year is that "Mad Men" is not on it. This December, it feels odd not to be writing about the exploits of Don Draper and his fellow ad men and women. But the good news is that 2011 was a very good year for television, even without Roger Sterling's witticisms and Don's flings and existential crises.
