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

I think it was Kat G who posted this over on FB, but it deserves to be shared over here too so even the FB-abstinent can see it--a tremendous NYT article on the show. Such thoughtful appreciation for the smart, effortless-appearing but grindingly hard work actors do; for the writers room; for Schur; for the philosopher consultants; for all the many parts of this amazing group project.
And I'm just utterly boggled that the article was written in the middle of filming Season 3, and acknowledges the threeness of it, and still manages to be completely spoiler-free and safe for complete novices to read.

Has everyone else seen the Comicon panel? Pure gold! Can't do the linky thing on tablet.
It's on YouTube.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I was over at Shoutfactory.com yesterday and had a mini Marx Brothers-fest. Highlights included an episode of the Jack Benny Show where Jack appears (in disguise) on You Bet Your Life, and two episodes of The Dick Cavett Show with 75+-year-old Groucho as guest. (Bonus -- Truman Capote is also a guest on one of the shows.)
Highly recommended. If there's a level above comic genius, it describes Groucho. Only one of a number of highlights -- Groucho and the sailor on You Bet Your Life. ("You've never kissed a girl? And you call yourself a sailor?")

Nice, Fred! The need for comedy is greater than ever lately. I will check out that site.

Laura, it made me realize what comedy giants were roaming during that era, and how they were taken for granted.
I also recommend Carol Burnett videos on YouTube. There's a great skit with Carol and Robin Williams at a funeral. As for "Went With the Wind," yes, the bit with the curtains is classic, but Dinah Shore comes very close to stealing the scene.
