“ Disclaimer —the placement of Vulture’s Real Housewives expert and video host is not nepotism; she was nominated by multiple people not on our payroll. And with good reason. She’s an octuple-threat: acting, singing, dancing, writing, monologuing, interviewing, kibitzing … and is TV recapping a threat? It should be. She’s written two books (her memoir I Don’t Care About Your Band and her upcoming YA novel Art Girls Are Easy) and for TV (Billy on the Street), but all of her talents are showcased in her podcast “How Was Your Week,” which features informal chats with comedians/authors/whomever and a free-associative comedic monologue about her pop-culture obsessions du jour (which usually includes Mario Lopez’s inane, diet-obsessed Twitter feed). The diversity of guests and highbrow/lowbrow mix on “HWYW” brings to mind the old The Dick Cavett Show, but with more of an old Broadway sensibility. ”

I have volunteered to weigh three seasons of  Arrested Development’s imperfect perfection against sixteen-and-counting seasons of South Park’s sloppy, anarchic brilliance. George Seurat next to Jackson Pollack. Ten minutes of meticulous, Sufjan Stevens–style orchestration against five hours of punk-rock improvising. A modern commedia dell’arte next to a really tight ASSSCAT.  
I wrote this impassioned essay about two great shows for Vulture’s #SitcomSmackdown. I hope you like the winner I picked.
