By Tess Lynch at

Happy Valentine's Day to all of you: The Notebook cynics, the marathon kissers locked in a 58-hour-long chapped embrace, the bipartisan curious, the romantic unmanned aerial vehicles that shoot conversation hearts from above, the brat fry lovers ("it was an absolute disaster as a brat fry," but love finds a way) and the corpses of people whose husbands were cruel to them because laser hair removal hadn't been invented yet. Having a shitty Valentine's Day? Well, at least Matt Damon envies you.

Privilege is getting another chance to build a TV show around a "sensibility" the viewing public just finished gagging on when it was served to them in multicamera-sitcom form.
