Always Anti-fascist!

Have started watching Big Bang Theory(Both DVD and syndicated) and have come to the uncomfortable conclusion that I'm too much like Howard Wollowitz, despite not being Jewish. I live with my mother, and when I try to be flirty or sound hot it almost always goes wrong. And I do think most of my friends are more educated that I am.

Because books.

So apparently Community won reader favorite in a TV Guide poll, and they're on the cover this week. Watching them discuss this on the Today Show was funny -- no one, of course, mentioned that the show's been pulled.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I have a friend who works at NBC, and based on what she's heard, she thinks the show was pulled because they expect one of their new midseason shows to fail, and they'll have Community ready to replace it with, even on a different night.

Oh my god, PAINTBALL.

t edit Er, that wasn't a commentary on Community as a mid-season replacement or NBC's methods of communicating same. I just watched the paintball episode, is all.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

P-C,

I understand that, but NBC's communication failures are epic. They could have just said that Community will be expected to air as a mid-season replacement and there would have been light angst, but nothing like releasing a schedule and oops! it isn't there.

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

Steph, and...THEY'RE NOT DONE.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Oh my god, PAINTBALL.

Hahaha. That's pretty much everyone's reaction after watching that episode. The most brilliant use of Senor Chang EVER. His grand entrance was my favourite part in an episode chockful of ridiculously awesome things.
