Faith: A kid. Angel's got a kid. Wesley: Connor. Faith: A teenage kid born last year. Wesley: I told you, he grew up in a hell dimension. Faith: Right. And what, Cordelia spent her last summer as… Wesley: A divine being. Faith: Uh-huh. Can I just ask--What the hell are you people doing?

Experimental TV: Comedy  

This thread is part of an experiment to determine Buffistas' interest in television discussion. It will close on June 1st, 2007, after which there will be a brief skirmish to sort out what we want to do next. This thread is for discussion of all comedy, regardless of airing station. [NAFDA]

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

The Office actually has me shipping a couple (Pam and Jim). I never ship. Except, well, now.

I'm the same way, Kevin! I don't ship either, but dammit: Jim and Pam must be together!

And, as much as I want to hate Karen: I kinda like her.

I love Karen. I don't even want to hate her. She's too cool to hate. A girl who will play Call of Duty with you is a girl...you should play Call of Duty with, if you catch my drift.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Polter-Cow makes more sense than... erm... Who makes sense? I don't know. Babbling.

Yes. Being somebody who plays Call of Duty 2 & 3 on Xbox Live (and who sucks at it). Yeah. I had forgotten about that.

Plus she saved Jim from a bush.

What is even happening?

Call of Duty != Call of Booty.

I've never even played Call of Duty. But gamer chicks are hot.

Call of Duty != Call of Booty.

It is my duty to please that booty.

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel

I thought last week's episode put an end to the mini-slump the show had been mini-enduring since Phyllis's Wedding. There were impressions and B-A-N-A-N-A-S and "Beer me the CD" and "It's my job to inspect the stock once a week and it's unfortunate this happened the year I took off". And the stories unfolded with pithy grace. And Creed's actions were a nice little hidden razor blade of a kicker.

I think that's the most absurd Michael's been, at least in a setting where I couldn't buy into the behavior, even coming from Michael.

The only time I haven't bought Michael's behaviour over an extended time was the second last episode with the threatening to jump from a four-storey building onto a trampoline. That was frightfully cartoonish.

And, as much as I want to hate Karen: I kinda like her.

She's my favourite of the three. Some of that is down to my contrariness but mostly, and this is very punk rock of me, it's because she's very together and, for me, there's no more attractive feature in a person.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Late because I only tiptoe in here every once in a while and lurk.

You may know her from such cancelled hits as Popular and Life as We Know It and of course Profit.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'll forgive the trampoline because that episode managed to ride the fine line of comedy dealing with depression without falling off.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Oh, she was the secretary on Profit! She's awesome.

Always Anti-fascist!

Yeah, thought it was funny. But I'm a sick fucker. And Michael totally thinks everything is about him. But it's not really like "You're so Vain"...more like "You're So Needy,"

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Lord beer me strength is my favorite. Oh, Halpert!

How I Met Your Mother--oh, Barney, bless. You thought Bob Barker was your dad! How awesome is that?
