I wish it could be Thursday now, so we could discuss The Office.
I KNOW! It's a rerun this week. WAH! Not that the eps don't hold up to multiple viewings.

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]

Re: Notes from the Underbelly, I just can't figure out how they'll milk the premise (ewwww, I didn't mean to go there) after the first season.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
The NY Times basically said it'll make you want to kill yourself.
But they don't seem to like anything these days.
(Are reviews spoilers? I don't even know anymore!?!)

It's a re-run, this week? Feh. You're right. They do hold up, but still. Feh.

Our wings are not tired.
Re: Notes from the Underbelly
I've seen the promos so many times, and yet have not been tempted to watch.
I don't know as I am watching any comedy, except TDS! Guess I better try The Office. Most comedy shows bug me in under 3 episodes.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
I had Notes from the Underbelly on last week while i multi-tasked and it annoyed me even if i was distracted by other things. it's bad. don't bother.
is The Office new? i was thinking it was a repeat for some reason.

lisah said it's a re-run, tiggy. I haven't checked on my own.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
30 Rock and Scrubs are new, but no new Office, unless they're doing a newpeat, which I haven't heard anything about.

except TDS!
Can we talk about Daily Show and Colbert in here? (I don't think it fits in reality/documentary, really...)

Because books.
I think this is the first time ever I don't watch any comedies. Unless you count reruns of Friends and Sex and the City.
I keep wanting to try The Office, but it's been on so long, and I'm too lazy to catch up on who's who and all that.
