Is this the end? Who knows, but if it is we can all take solace in knowing that our friends went out doing what they do best, making us laugh until we pee a little. This week’s double dose of Happy Endings are the last two episodes of the season, possibly the series, and they leave it all on the floor, like the ballers we’ve come to love. Let’s review.

Deal-breaker! That’s it, I am officially annoyed with this season. After a mediocre start to the second season, Smash commits a cardinal sin: killing off a character that I like. Also the writers decide to make one of the worst couples ever to exist on television happen.

It’s the penultimate week before the last two episodes of Happy Endings of the season…and possibly ever. Sad face. But let’s focus on the positives and remember the good times: like that time Brad (Damon Wayans Jr.) pooped his pants. Or when Penny (Casey Wilson) banged the Car Czar (Rob Corddry).

Well, it’s finally here, opening night for Bombshell. After all the work, all the cast changes, and of course all the drama, the big night is here and it all comes down to this. Will Ivy (Megan Hilty) show everyone why she was the only choice for Marilyn? Will Tom’s (Christian Borle) direction be as brilliant as Derek’s (Jack Davenport)? Will Eileen (Angelica Huston) have a smash on her hands or will it be a bomb? And most importantly, will someone explain to me why Emory Cohen is there? Let’s bitch.

As Bombshell goes into previews, technical difficulties arise and so do ticket sales with the help of a little full frontal. Meanwhile Hit List has some major structural changes a few hours before a big preview. So is Derek (Jack Davenport) a visionary or a jealous old man? Maybe both?

This week things get serious on Happy Endings. No, the show isn’t cancelled…yet, but it’s the end for one lovable couple. Also, Dave (Zachary Knighton) discovers he’s a psychic, Brad (Damon Wayans Jr.) and Jane (Eliza Coupe) aren’t as perfect as we all thought, and Max (Adam Pally) and Alex (Elisha Cuthbert) become taste makers. Oh, and did I mention it’s the return of Derrick (Stephen Guarino) and he’s putting on a musical? DRAMA…literally. Let’s bitch.
