I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

also one who really enjoyed the premiere, but my recording was a little wonky. I hope it is not a sign that my CBS reception is going to be off this year.

I liked that Eleanor's BS detector was on high alert and she picked up on people being too nice and trying to get her to drink.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Is anyone watching The Opposition with Jordan Klepper? I've watched the first three episodes but I'm finding it painful and not fun at all. I miss The Nightly Show.

Always Anti-fascist!

For me, it's like, I live *here*. I'm soaking in that bullshit. Also, I like Klepper, but if he was a girl, they'd tell him he can't carry a show, and they'd be honest.

Yeah, all of that. He is trying to be Colbert. He is not Colbert.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Man, I love Ted Danson.

Also, as per usual, Chidi. t points to new tag

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

As usual, it was hilarious. Every time you wonder how can they continue to sustain this, they take another left turn at Albuquerque.

"Wait, Jason figured it out?!?"

The parade of Eleanor's soulmates was fun, too. Glenn, Tahani, the golden retriever...

Thrive to spite them

Saw the new episode and so good. I think my favorite version was Michael wearing an undershirt and the complaint abiut stress eating while Elanor was right there.

Ted Danson is KILLING IT.

And my Eleanor/Chidi OTP heart grew 3 sizes last night. I may have shrieked when she said "I love you."

But also! Chidi wrangling a pig in one of the reboots! And also! Chidi running from bees in another of the reboots! Basically every goddamn moment with Chidi.

A clam chowder fountain should be a huge tipoff that this isn't the good place. Though I do like clam chowder from time to time.
