I gotta say I'm not really feeling the Poehler show and The Office back-to-back. But yesterday was the first time I've ever seen the Poehler show. It seems like a lot of mockumentary for one evening, imo.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
The first episode was much, much better than last night's. I hope they keep Amy Poehler's character a true believer in the democratic process and don't let her self-aggrandize into yet another Michael Scott.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I really like Amy Poehler's show, but that may have something to do with the fact that TCG has to go to meetings like in the first episode for his job. Some of the stuff isn't very far from reality.

Man, I love Portia de Rossi's character on Better off Ted. She's a fantastic combination of obtuse and manipulative - you can see why she would actually be an effective manager, but when she says "You called me powerful and complimented my calves, that's all I remember", she isn't being merciful, that's really all she heard.

Sigh. Second painfully unfunny episode in a row for Kröd Mandoon. Though I am willing to cut them some slack since they had Sean Maguire spend half the episode in wet swimwear.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I've been watching Krod but I can never get up enough enthusiasm to post about it.

I actually didn't mind Krod this week. Maybe because I was prepared for painfully unfunny and it wasn't that bad. I thought that the cyclops was kind of amusing.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
I can't remember where I heard about this but it doesn't appear to have been from this thread, so in case you haven't been told about it, check out this behind the scenes footage of Ricky Gervais and Elmo. Hilarious shit. [link]
