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

Is it wrong that I find Evil!Abed really hot? I shouldn't even be surprised. I totally had the hots for the evil-goateed!Spock from that AU episode of the Trek.

Poor Troy. I'm looking forward to how this storyline is going to develop. I'm game for this plot, provided that they reconcile before the end of the season. Could you imagine what it would be like if Troy and Abed finished the season not being friends and the show got cancelled? WORST ENDING EVER.

I really dig the way they're writing Jeff and Britta. When they don't force the UST, they make pretty awesome buds. All the stuff Britta yelled at Jeff to deflate his ego! "... and you butt crack is REALLY high!"

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Evil goatees are hot hot hot, Vonnie.

Ptui, let us never speak of that outcome you mention in your second paragraph again. I don't want to quote it because, like, magical thinking and whatnot.

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

This is going to make the proposed air conditioning plotline (yes, that preoccupies me--what of it?) even more tense.

I never thought I'd scream "Fuck you, Harmon!" at the skies, but...here I am again, in another dysfunctional relationship with a TV writer.

Is there therapy for this? Or maybe medication?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The Quotable Archer (from last night's ep):

“What is taking so long?”
“Couple things. First, I didn't invent whatever this door is made out of. Which appears to be an alloy of adamantium and mythril, And two, not crazy about your tone.”

“Animal farm is a book.”
“No it's not Lana. It's an allegorical novella about Stalinism! And spoiler alert, it sucks!”

"A black astronaut, Cyril! That's like killing a unicorn!"

"Oh please, you'd do... name a noun."

"Whorediot!"

"Goin' to outer space / to shoot that dickbag in the face..."

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

Man, I am not a fan of these new cartoony gags like thought bubbles and ego apples and slot machine hearts and whatnot. They feel wrong.

But, ack, Troy and Abed! And Evil Abed! Aaah!!

Archer did help a bit, but DAMN. Community, you're still hurting me, and I had a weekend of Sera Gamble and Suzanne Collins pain planned. This really fucks with my schedule.

The moment Abed made that spaceship with two seats, I worried. But I worried he was going to make up his own Troy. Evil Abed didn't even occur to me. That's just too sad...And he's so capable, compared to "cool, cool, cool" easygoing Abed. I don't even know...

French Stewart is also on next week's Psych. He's having a good week, I guess.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

So I tried Community for the first time this week. I'm guessing it was the wrong episode with which to start? 'Cause I kinda hated it. But I also never cared for the Office or 30 Rock or Parks and Rec, so maybe I'm just not the right audience?


Jesse - Mar 24, 2012 9:20:41 am PDT #5255 of 8624
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I watched Community last week, thought it was OK so watched it again this week, and...maybe not. But maybe stick with it a little more?

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

Liese,

I think you should start with season 1 if you can. Starting now is probably not the best choice. Too much backstory.
