Random Wordplay for Wednesday 10/24/12

Some people can't handle Vegas; you can.

Used in a sentence:  "Way to go Wilfred for taking the idea presented literally in the Hangover movies and making it resonate metaphorically in the season 2 finale of Wilfred:  'some people can't handle Vegas;  you can'".

Wilfred is definitely an acquired taste -- but if you can hang with what seems like its extreme ridiculousness, you might just be shocked at how touching it can be.  And the payoff in the last episode of the second season for anyone who relates to the highly functional wounded soul that "Ryan" represents was Wilfred's summation that there are those whose survival instinct is so great that they can get through anything they face in life -- those who embrace eccentricity and recognize that invoking just a touch of insanity is how one truly stays sane.  And if you don't want to go that deep, you still can be entertained by the guest performance of the amazingly talented Allison Mack or by the clever commentary on canine-human interactions constantly on display in every episode.

Come on FX -- work out those details for a third season!  Some of us are eagerly anticipating and ready to handle more Wilfred!
