Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Abed doesn't have to be right. He's just that implacable.

I'd heard about that Paul Reiser show a while ago and wanted to watch it, but I had no idea that it was starting this week. I haven't seen any promos at all.

Abed's professor learned a lesson--don't mess with Abed.

Did you see some of the stuff on the board? There was chemistry! My favorite part was the Abed stuff. The rest was sort of meh. Although Chang's face when Pierce was talking was hysterical.

I watched about 1/2 of the Paul Reiser show because I used to love Mad About You, but it wasn't awful, it just didn't hold my interest. Then I had to do dishes and I missed the rest. There are a lot of wacky sidekicks - not sure I'd dig that in the long run.

Always Anti-fascist!

I watched it on Demand, found it kind of funny, but pilot-y. I actually liked the latest Community, especially Stephen Toblowsky as the pop-culture prof.

I find my interest in Paul Reiser projects is directly proportional to how much interaction he has with Greg Evigan in them.

oh, well.

Har. You just want them to get together. I continue to hope that Paul Reiser and Greg Evigan guest star on Glee as Rachel's gay dads.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Punishingly Intricate

The Paul Reiser show looked unbearable to me from the promos. But I can't stand the Larry David show either.

I'm not a fan of the Larry David show, but I think that it has some good elements. I think that maybe I was hoping that the Reiser show would be a better Larry David.

Compassionately intolerant

OMG! I never looked closely at the Warblers. But looking at that photo, I recognize three of the Bubs from the Sing Off! Hah. I'm pretty much over Glee at this point, but might have to watch again for the 'hey it's that singer.'
