Is this the easiest Strands puzzle of the week? I think so. Or at least it's the one I solved with less drama and in less time. The task was aided by the fact that the spangram, SITCOMS, was right in the middle of the board reading from left to right and high up, with only a small movement in its path.
With that in place, the task became clear, and I immediately watched COMMUNITY (watched a few episodes, didn't particularly like it), VEEP (amazing, one of my favorites), CHEERS (an all-time great that gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling if I watch a rerun), SCRUBS (never watched it, always thought I should), FRIENDS (meh) and SPELLED (before my time). All in all, an enjoyable and fun Strands puzzle.
