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

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.

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

Yes.

I am not sure what I think about Community right now. But I do think I'm going to need to watch it again, and that's pretty good.

Well played, Parks and Rec, I did not see that coming.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Big Bang Theory -- Only seen half of the episode, but it's clearly going to be a classic. Sheldon's fanboy plus Bob Newhart's underplaying equals comedy gold. Platinum, even.

I liked Community. I think I think maybe they're trying too hard, but if Harmon had been on the show, I wouldn't have thought that, so I'm trying to discard that reaction. I enjoyed it, and I bought the transitions, especially the penultimate one.

I liked the transitions but I'm definitely going to have to watch again and pause judiciously to really see them all. But I like the idea.

I was really leery about the concept of this episode but I think it played out okay.

They might be trying too hard but I also feel like they are trying in the right directions and given some more time they will find the sweet spot so - one more season, please. Or two more and a movie. You know.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

This would be especially hilarious for another season or two of them making excuses for why Pierce isn't there each episode.

In honor of tonight's likely series finale for Happy Endings, I'll be eating ribs right along with Alex.
