You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Ugly Betty made me sniffly a few times tonight, especially with all the Wicked music. I really liked this episode, and the previews for the wedding episode looke exciting.

Ann, that's a ferret.
We caught up on two eps of The Office last night. I have to agree with Laga -- Michael's commercial actually had the better visuals.
As for last night's episode, the Finer Things Club should have guessed that meeting in the break/vending machine room would lead to complications. Liked the idea. And Oscar's thoughts on the subject.
My opinion of Michael took a big drop. All along, he's at least meant well. Which isn't much, but it kept him from being a total waste of carbon. But last night, from virtually kidnapping Jim (and his reason for including him) to stealing the copier -- I can't see how he even meant well from all that.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I really think Michael's character is starting to fall apart, in an intentional way.

Ugly Betty:
Aw, that last scene! With "Defying Gravity"! Man, this show knows exactly how to push my buttons.
Did anyone else just want to smack Daniel every time he tried to "protect" Betty from Henry? I'm glad she finally told him that he was being manipulative, even though I'm not sure the message sunk in.
I'm so happy to have the old Justin back! I missed the swish. Love that kid.
The Office:
I'm glad we got an episode with Karen, who was totally awesome in this one. I was a little surprised, in a good way, to see how immature and uncomfortable Jim was around her. I would have expected to see him own up to the prank right away and try to smooth things over, but instead he made things worse. It was a good reminder of the fact that he can still be kind of a dick sometimes. Watching him get the smackdown in the Finer Things Club was also pretty funny; I'm guessing that was his last meeting.

All I could think was, "About TIME!!!"

YES!
Relatedly, I couldn't help thinking that a writer for Ugly Betty must lurk here. (Because, y'know, Nico getting bitten by a monkey and having to be quarantined?)

So much so, but I wanted to smack Betty even more when she looked like she was going to listen to him.

Pushing Daisies There's something about it that's soporific for me. I can't get through an episode without falling asleep at least twice, which means I'm about 3 weeks behind. I can't figure out what it is, if it's the music or Jim Dale's voice, or what.
Kristin Chenowith is SO good, as is Chi McBride, Swoozie Kurtz, well, everyone really, but especially them.
