That seems like a stretch. It never seemed non-absurd to me.

Shake. Interesting.

I'm blanking on this. When?

Just once, I want to see a "will they or won't they" thing where the answer is, "they won't, and years later, one of them will think bemusedly, "huh, remember the time I was briefly convinced I was falling in love with HER? So weird." Because let's face it, that happens a lot more often.

In an unexpected development, he was actually referring to Don't Trust the B——- in Apartment 23.

A martini isn't exactly the Great Wall of China, either.

But they'll be replaced by a roughly equal number of people (often the same people) working on a new show…

Or one Community. They shoot very close to each other.

They liked it at first, then they didn't like it, and then later they'll REALLY like it?

Homer Simpson is a dad! Bob Belcher is a dad! American Dad is… …I've never seen that one. Is he a dad?

Are you sure Peter Tolan identified the robot-portraying '70s mimes as Monteith and Rand? Because those mimes were Shields and Yarnell.

Nah, I've done a few shows with him. I don't really listen to podcasts.
