Loved this ep to bits. Funny and weirdly touching and sweet. Agree with all the kudos above, and will add that I liked Shirley's "Then you need to learn the words, we, us, and our."
Love isn't brains, children, it's blood, blood screaming inside you to work its will.

Shirley was excellent, if not very showy, this ep. I love that she's in the running for valedictorian - when she presented the business plan for the sandwich shop I was reminded that she was at Greendale to learn and had obviously been doing so, it's nice that that's a plot point.
I think I was already on board to watch Donald Glover in anything he does, but this performance certainly reinforced that.
Oscar-winner Jim Rash wrote this one, is that right? I'm starting to think he might know what he's doing. And that he wrote himself shirtless is kind of funny.

That does seem to be the case. I do kind of wonder if he was thinking "and this time I'll be sexy" while he was writing.

Big Bang Theory was pretty good this week. And surprisingly Buffy-centric.

It was, but part of me is thinking that if Penny doesn't like Buffy, Leonard should move on.

I did have the same thought.

Always Anti-fascist!
Why wouldn't Penny like Buffy? I think Penny is a lot like Buffy.(Although my stepfather was a lot like Niles Crane and he never thought that show was funny. Nor my mom's friend who is totally Joy from My Name Is Earl. Although that may be more of a self-incrimination thing.)

I would have guessed she would, really, especially when she made the vampire:meth head analogy, but I guess they didn't want her to for plot reasons.
