multiplitude

If you don't watch The City, you're missing out on one of television's crown jewels. It's a smörgåsbord for the senses, an exhilrating whirlwind adventure of emotional exploration and discovery. In fact, the only thing better than watching the show is reading New York Magazine's recaps every Tuesday morning. Here's an excerpt from this week's recap:

Lesson 4: Knowing when it’s time to be single.
Do: Listen to your own best advice. Whitney runs crying to Erin to discuss her Jay situation. She wonders if she's overreacting, which Erin reassures her she's not. “I don’t even know if he really likes me,” Whitney says. “I’m, like, drowning in this. I feel like everything is crashing down on me right now and I need to take some control.” Yes! Praise the gods of reality television — Whitney Port has reached a turning point. Her character has an arc! So … why isn’t she single already?
Don’t: Confuse yourself by thinking of how great things used to be. Whitney reminisces about the night she met Jay and they made out in public like animals. She reasons that must mean she really likes him, because that’s so out of character for her. Aw. It was for all of us before we moved here, Whit! But that’s not love. That’s getting drunk in a bar in New York before you know better.

Next week is the season finale. LC's going to be on! Then we'll try to switch gears back to The Hills for its final season.
