Fair enough. It was in the 3rd season Slapsgiving episode (the one with "Bob"). They then (which I forgot) made a separate music video that they tried to take viral.

What was there not to understand about Boyz II Men? A way to make the episode and the slap concept even more lovably absurd while calling back Marshall's slap song from season 3. It was a superb conclusion.

No way the rhyming episode was as bad as the second Britney Spears episode or the one in which Marshall gets mugged by a monkey.

Sadly, it's because one looks like Snooki and the other looks like Keira Knightley.

Wez gonna get silly bitchez

Even weirder than the fact that the Good Samaritan spoke from the perspective of the abused rather than the abuser is that the other members seemed to signal that they knew what he was going through.

But how does that work though? If going to the support group is treated as a legal admission of abuse (at which point - they wouldn't even really need the wife to cooperate in the investigation, would they?), wouldn't that sort of discourage people from going?

Nate Ruess + 20 years = Frank Whaley

On top of the Slap Bet and Robin Sparkles storylines, which are reason enough to consider that episode a classic, it also has some of the best banter, sharpest dialogue and most fun character moments you'll ever see on this show.

They didn't - but the woman (was it his wife?) did. She thought they were going to ask about something with what I assumed was the daughter…and seemed offended when they brought up the niece who went missing.

Maybe I'm too naive, but is that really an accurate portrayal of (admittedly backwoods) Louisiana in *1995?* I don't mind the war on religion deal - FOX News types still allege one - but other elements (such as the vandalism to the black church not getting investigated) seemed straight out of 1965 rather than 1995.

But hold on a second. What happened to the DAUGHTER of the handicapped ex-baseball player? They mention that he's the uncle of the girl who went missing, but the reason they came across his name (as mentioned in the previous scene) is that he was the father of some girl that came up in one of the other cop's…

It's weird. I completely agree about the Little Red Riding Hood segment being the best, yet for some reason, the inconsistent narrative mode really bothered me.

I thought Brooklyn Nine Nine was this year, and Ben & Kate definitely was last year.

Completely baffled to find out that this got good reviews.

It's definitely not a show designed FOR nerds. The references aren't niche enough (and, according to a friend who's really into gaming and comics, are occasionally flat out inaccurate), and the premise of the show ultimately requires them to become LESS nerdy to succeed in society.

Didn't Sheldon and Leonard have Star Wars shampoo in the first episode?

I was too old to let myself appreciate Drake & Josh when it came out (but not old enough to realize that it's okay to like family-oriented stuff), but in looking back, it was definitely a good comedy by Nickelodeon standards.

Just like I don't understand the reviews that complain when Shawn from "Psych" acts like Shawn from "Psych," I'll never understand why so many treat Sheldon acting like Sheldon as a negative.

There's no universe in which one can say she's worse on this show than Precious.
