99 Words About … A reason to feel good about watching E!

Ken Marino is the best thing to happen to the Internet since porn.

Like his “Children’s Hospital” before it, “The Bachelor”-spoofing “Burning Love” (10 p.m. Monday, E!) is transitioning from Web series to TV series.

Clueless firefighter Mark Orlando (Marino) is just seeking “someone who can make me laugh but isn’t afraid of robots.”

Among the ladies hoping for a “hose ceremony,” one’s blind, one’s homeless, one’s extremely pregnant. And one’s Ken Jeong.

“Burning Love” serves as a welcome refuge for “Party Down” alums.

And it finally gives E! something besides “The Soup” you can laugh with, not at.
