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

It's a great little show -- it's got all the trappings of conventional workplace sitcom, but frequently manages to subvert your expectations. The show is blessed with an excellent diverse cast and is great at making tart social commentaries without being preachy. It's also got a very sweet core and has less element of cringe comedy than The Office, which I appreciate.

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

Good to know, thank you!

List is misleading, there's a spreadsheet.

That's maybe one of the favorite things I've read lately.

Now I will check out The Good Place. This thread is why I started Community back when. It's a good track record.

Also, it took me a day and a half to get the joke of having "Tapped That Ass" on Crazy Ex-Girlfriend set to an actual tap dance. Best Gene Kelly and Donald O'Connor routine that never existed.

I still have Tapped That Ass stuck in my head. Last night needed more songs, but it was nice to see the inside of Josh's head.

Also, I am now out of The Good Place to watch. I don't know what I'm going to do with myself.

Captain Holt eating a "marshed mallow" may be my new favorite thing.

I love Captain Holt so much! Nothing will ever beat his dance off with the street kids though.

Always Anti-fascist!

Love that Paula and Rebecca are Wirefiends. I would kind of love to hear them talking "like Stringer and Avon"(Yo, is that racist?)

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Last night's Good Place had me laughing hysterically by the end. Probably the funniest thing I've seen since Mr. Carlson bombed Cincinnati with turkeys.

Mr. Scola’s wardrobe by Botany 500

Very funny episode —I chuckled through the entire thing. But that one gag I could see coming a mile away.
