What do you mean "lead in other shows"? As anyone who has seen Rob Lowe's Emmy submissions knows, he's already the lead in Parks and Recreation.

@avclub-dc10fce584f2cdf09d6690e0f2883227:disqus Alternate dimensions and time travel stories are very hard to do well, especially as part of a television series. Once you've introduced something like that, it can't be a minor plot point. Like on Star Trek, it's silly to have time travel in a handful of episodes but

Does that mean the arrest counts in the Peralta/Santiago contest are going to be lower in the next episode? That's going to be a really unsettling lack of continuity.

You would rather they call an NBC show "Fox" or "The Fox Show"? That might be a little confusing.

How is that not on CW?

How is Meltzer the villain here? Informing the FBI about a terrorist plot is not a bad thing.

I have those! I also have the I Dream of Jeannie Bottle, the King of Queens delivery truck, the Full House house and the Brady Bunch box set covered in shag carpet. I pretty much buy anything on DVD if it's on sale.

It's pronounced fa-SAY-hands!

"Boring" might be an appropriate word, but not with its most common definition.

A Russell Brand roast would be two straight hours of jokes about Katy Perry's tits.

This, approrpriately, looks like it's going to be a much worse show than The Good Guys (which I still miss).

I almost always side with Richard and Emily in their disputes with Lorelai, and I absolutely sympathize with the Springsteens in their conflict with the wayward daughter. What's wrong with WASPy pod people?

Girls is basically a 30-minute television series version of Reality Bites.

They're the AT&T of commercials.

Too Cute! sounds a lot like South Park's "Close-Up Animals with a Wide Angle Lens."

@avclub-a93a879594c13c12a83fd45ab289a022:disqus It's strange how common that sitcom plot is (minus the portly father detail). Frasier did one where Daphne steps in at the end. It's an episode that's been done dozens of times, and it's never been funny.

OhBGYN

More likely because Wizard of Oz is public domain. It must be given all of these adaptations, right?

"My Way Home" was my favorite episode of Scrubs, but I'm not sure the concept can sustain a whole series.

Ack! I can't believe I missed this. I actually would have bought some of this stuff. The flute from Inner Light went for $6,500. If I had seen this post a few days earlier, I would have won that!!
