With Sarah Palin joining FOX news I think they may need to bump TDS to an hour.
You know The Colbert Report will fight TDS to the death for Palin coverage opportunities.
So, 2 hour block, then?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Thanks for the Dominic Monaghan confirmation. I will reply to my would-be-corrector with cites. I must have missed that episode of Hetty. I don't remember bummage.
I lapsed out of sitcoms too. I tried to get back into them with mainlining 30 Rock, but it just never took. I've caught bits of HIMYM and it never really worked for me, despite loving NPH and liking AH.
I can still consume UK Coupling (the Jeff seasons) without hesitation, though. I would like to give Extras a shot, for the guest stars.

Because books.
I like what I've caught of The Office, but even HIMYM hasn't really grabbed me. Friends destroyed my sitcom gene!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Community is the funniest sitcom I've seen in a long, long time. I think it's funnier than 30 Rock or Parks and Rec.

Because books.
I've heard good things about Community. Parks and Rec is the same model as The Office, though, right?

Awww... I want to go to Antarctica and use the ATM. I wonder what the use fees are?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
They waive the fees.
Awesome, right?

Here's a clip from the first episode of Community with the brilliant Ken Jeoung as Senor Chang. [link]
And they do these hilarious little outros, generally featuring Abed and Troy. [link]

In the far-off year 2010, we'll all do our work and schooling and library-book-reading on ingenious video screens that can connect to each other from anywhere around the globe.
Of course, in author Geoffrey Hoyle's 1972 vision, those screens are telephone-based, the size of a large dishwasher—and we use them while wearing practical and futuristic jumpsuits.
Daniel Sinker loved 2010: Living in the Future as a child, and now shares the book—in all its not-quite-on-the-money glory—with the Internets. Wait until you get to the part about "a series of tubes".

In the year 2010 everyone wears a jumpsuit and shoes. The clothes may look odd, but they are sensible. The jumpsuits and shoes are made in thousands of colors, from a material so light you can hardly feel it. The material keeps you warm when it is cold and cool when it is hot.
