New Girl this week made me laugh in that they just randomly swapped out their...err...how do I phrase this...african american lead. So it was one dude in the pilot and a new dude in the 2nd episode. Which isn't exactly unheard of, things often change from the pilot after a show pickup, sometimes including re-doing the whole pilot, but my thought, for good or ill, was basically "so they've changed token black guy roommate this week - you know, they could go with an ongoing shtick, new roommate every week".
