Jayma Mays Adorability Factor Update

Still totally adorable. With added bonus, mulletastic Greek god, John Stamos.

I believe this was after he parachuted into a tomato truck.

I heard that John Stamos will be joining the cast of Glee next season (as Emma's dentist boyfriend), and my first thought was, "Can John Stamos even sing???"

WHAT WAS I THINKING.

Jayma Mays, You Make Me Want To Buy A Bunny

After loving Jayma Mays as an obsessive-compulsive guidance counselor on Glee, I watched her on Heroes, playing an equally charming waitress named Charlie who is murdered after only a few episodes. Then, in a glorious twist of fate, I caught her as the "coat check wench" on How I Met Your Mother (episode: Okay Awesome). I had already seen this episode before and had fallen in love with this character for her theory that everything that's supposed to be fun actually sucks (parades, New Year's Eve). After re-watching this episode, I decided to go on a quest, a quest to find a Jayma Mays role in which she isn't totally adorable.

According to imdb, Mays has been in a handful of shows and movies that got awful reviews. These include Joey, Epic Movie, and Paul Blart: Mall Cop. However, she was also in some winners like Six Feet Under, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, and Ugly Betty.

Her most surprising role was that of Ben Franklin's lover in Funny or Die's Drunk History volume 2.5. Drunk History is basically when they get somebody really drunk, have them describe a historical event, and then match up this narration to popular actors reenacting the event. For example, Ben Franklin was played by Jack Black. I'd include that video here, but there are a few graphic vomit scenes that no one needs to see.

She's also in a Switchfoot video, the movie Red Eye, and a strange (I'm assuming satirical) trailer for something called The Night Hikers, but she's adorable in all of them.

IS THERE ANY ROLE YOU'VE TAKEN THAT DOESN'T MAKE ME WANT TO HUG YOU AND BUY A KITTEN POSTER, JAYMA?

Alas, the following video is the ONLY thing I could find in which she's not a rainbow of unicorn love. And that's really only because it's in black and white.

BONUS VIDEO that I'd like to title Adorable Rocker: Jayma Mays, let's be besties.

(Yes, that's Buster from Arrested Development.)

Fall TV Preview...because apparently there's more on than just Heroes.

After a summer of craptastic television (example: Legally Blondes), I am more than excited for the new fall programs. Here's a rundown of what's up.

YES.

Glee - If I had a job, and that job had a water cooler, this show is what would be discussed in the immediate vicinity of this hypothetical water cooler. Also, I love that Jane Lynch is doing all the promotion for this show. tonight, 9/9 on FOX at 9/8c

Community - The guy from The Soup being less of a douche + Chevy Chase + the British guy from The Daily Show + community college = hilarity. 9/17 on NBC at 9:30/8:30c

MAYBE.

The Middle - A sitcom about middle class suburbia that pits my hatred for Patricia Heaton against my love for The Janitor, ahem, Neil Flynn. My indecision gets them at least one episode. 9/30 on ABC at 8:30/7:30c

Accidentally on Purpose - Even though this show is jam-packed with all the greatest stuff in the world, it probably won't last more than 5 episodes. Said stuff includes Jenna Elfman (whose character is named Billie and is a movie critic and therefore compares everything to the world of cinema), the chick from Extras, and Jon Foster*. 9/21 on CBS at 8:30/7:30c

*Holy crap. I just realized that Jon Foster is not the actor from Get Over It but is instead his younger brother. Hear that? It's the sound of my world shattering.

Mercy - I've had one too many hospital shows, but I will give this one a shot. This singular chance is based on the presence of Michelle Trachtenberg, but if the show sucks, I'll turn on it faster than Harriet the Spy's friends turned on her when they read her diary...and then threw paint on her. 9/23 on NBC at 8/7c

Cougar Town - Okay, I know this show should be in the sub-basement area of the YES, MAYBE, NO category system. However, if you ignore the use of the term "cougar" and the similarities it shares with that awful Debra Messing Lifetime miniseries bullcrap, it seems...well, funny. It's like Drunk Monica meets Liz Lemon in 6 years with best friend Busy Philipps. Sounds like a perfect recipe. 9/23 on ABC at 9:30/8:30c

NO.

Vampire Diaries - And by NO, I mean this show is going to suck, but I'll probably still watch it anyway. Teen angst, vampires, and love triangles are okay separately, but together, they form a boring, overdone trifecta of fail. 9/10 on the CW at 8/7c

Trauma - This show was way better when it was called In A Heartbeat. 9/28 on NBC at 9/8c

countdown to glee...

43 days, people.
