me neither, but i'm not all that surprised that something on imdb is screwy.

And here I always thought IMDB was more reliable than other sources. Live and learn.
I am sad that I have missed the new Office episodes.
Back to HIMYM:
These amused me at the time but the allusions went by me until now:
Barney: Tell me more. Tell me more. Like did he have a car?
This is a reference to the lines of a song from the musical Grease called "Summer Nights". With the song, Sandy and Danny, the lead characters in the play, describe to their friends how their brief summer love affair went.
Barney: Finish Him!!
This is an allusion to the video game "Mortal Kombat". When you KOed (knocked out) your opponent, he stood once again to receive the coup de grace while those words were showed on the screen.

I thought that JJ's Canadian accent was good (it reminded me a bit of Michael Hogan as Col. Tigh) but people at TWOP (or some people at TWOP) thought he sounded more Irish - what did you guys think? Because I didn't think he sounded at all Irish.
It sounded vaguely Scottish to me, though he did tone it down to a more typically Canadian/Minnesotan dialect by the end.
But I think that there are Canadian accents that do sound vaguely Scottish.
It sounded vaguely Scottish to me,
me too.
Me three. But, since my housemate told me Dawson is Canadian, I figured I just didn't know any better.
Ugly Betty is back tonight! I've really missed this show.
Dear Hubs,
I like to watch The Office on Thursday nights so I can discuss with the Buffistas on Fridays. If you want us to watch it together, fine. If you're too tired to watch, I can live with it.
However, if you're too tired to watch The Office, please go to bed instead of snoring on the couch while I watch something else. Bill Haley and the Comets' performances in Don't Knock the Rock lose something by the accompaniment.
With love,
Fred
The Office last night felt very Old School, except OMG Jim has turned into Michael... !! Part of it was probably Jim overreacting to Ryan, but I think they're planning on a character arc for Jim this season, similar to what they did with Pam in season 3. Should be interesting.
OMG TOBY NO. Poor Toby! If it had been anyone else, I'd have been skeeved out, but it's TOBY, and he's my poor little woobie, and he's been pining hopelessly and he let Pam's innocent compliments go to his head! Don't move to Costa Rica, Toby! It will be okay!
Cokehead Ryan = Priceless. Dwight = AWESOMECAKES.
Re. 30 Rock: I really admired their commitment to the Amadeus homage. Not sure whether it completely worked, but it was worth it for the shots of Dr. Spaceman with his cape running slo-mo to Confutatis from the Requiem. If I recall, every single piece of music used was from Amadeus soundtrack.
Liz offering Kenneth to Banks! Then making out with him in the elevator to protect Jack!! Do they want me to start shipping Liz/Jack or what?
