He really was. The whole thing was very cute. I don't quite understand the premise, if there is a premise, but I think I am okay with that.
They pretty much had me at the bit about Twilight.
Spike: I'm not a monster. Xander: Yes! You are a monster. Vampires are monsters! They make monster movies about them! Spike: Well, yeah. Got me there.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I don't think there was a premise, so much as stories about different people who all had a few degrees of separation from one another.
I'm still kind of impressed that they managed an anal sex reference on network TV.

That was pretty smooth. And funny.
I'm wondering if we will keep following these characters if we will be watching new characters in new places next week. Gonna watch and find out, either way.

From the previews, it looked like at least GG would be there, so I'm happy.

Good! The LA contingent has a lot of potential to be amusing and adorable.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I thought "Win Some, Dose Some" and "Lust in Translation" were the funniest episodes overall.
Okay, I've got to add "Jabberwocky" to that list because that was awesome. "The environment—everyone likes it. And so, we do too."
And the presentation about nothing was such a perfect parody of flashy corporate presentations about nothing. It is perhaps the first time the word VAINGLORIOUS has ever appeared in a sitcom.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
So, now that the regular seasons are over. What were the funniest single episodes of shows you watched this year?
I'd have to pick two Archer eps, "The Double Deuce" (the flashback episode for Woodhouse involving H. Jon Benjamin's immortal line reading: "That's a lot of scalps!") and "Stage Two" (Chemo rampage!) and also the season ender for Raising Hope "Don't Vote For This Episode" (another flashback including Drakkar Noir).
So what did I miss on Community, 30 Rock and elsewhere?

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

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I really liked the Raising Hope episode with hide-and-seek and brother husbands. Booyah! Community was not quite as awesome for me this season as it has been; I was watching it somewhat haphazardly, which didn't help.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I thought the Simpsons was particularly strong this year. There was one episode, 500 Keys, where the A and B plots came together in a way that left me gasping for air.
