If only someone could convince her to stop dying her hair.

Lindsay wasn't capable of reading lines about her career.

It was a bland, inoffensive, and forgettable episode of the show. Seems like a pure baseline C. Lindsay Lohan was utterly useless as a host. How did they not get her into something with Stefon? I was really hoping for her to be called in as Weekend Update's new city correspondent, or a special LA correspondent. "LA's…

I'm also a fan of "I love the BCS."

I've really enjoyed Top Chef, but I think I'm about done with it now. I don't think it's gotten worse (maybe it has, but not hugely) so much as I'm just tired of it. I've seen what it is, I've seen nine seasons plus all stars, Masters, and Last Chance Kitchen. It's just not worth it any more.

There's at least some relief in the fact that the show never pretended Jim might fall for Cathy–we all know it's not going to happen; this isn't that kind of show. Letting us immediately see that this is just a plot for Jim to get out of with as few hurt feelings as possible is better than trying to keep some tension…

Yeah, this exactly. It's not a story about how Karofsky learned the true meaning of bullying because a week after he punched Kurt he got a pimple and the girls made fun of him all afternoon and now he totally understands. His bullying was integral to his closet, and a result of a culture of homophobia. It works.

Plausible and tasteful!

The sequence with the vampire was included because the most tasteful thing in the world in an episode about suicide is to have the winner of regionals announced by a man in ghoul makeup who just stepped out of a motherfucking coffin.

How could they nail the deeply affecting sequence of Karofsky's suicide attempt, and then still botch the tone at every other point in the story? It's almost like they had a fully developed Regionals episode, came up 15 minutes short, and decided to graft on a plot from a much better show.

Even lacking the production stills, we all know Quinn's not dead, right? At this point, it's not even within contemplation that the New Directions could lose Regionals. They couldn't even stand to lose Sectionals to the obviously-better Troubletones.

I snickered, but is that really the best time for product placement?

I'll be the one, I guess, to make the inevitable comparisons between this episode and "Advanced Dungeons & Dragons" from Community. I think that episode really exemplified the ability of a show (or a show like Glee with broad comic elements) to take on an issue like suicide respectfully,  without losing the essential…

Sucks, but I guess there are only so many episodes, we might as well stretch them out.

Shut up, Paradox.

We're gonna fly to school each morning! We're going to smile the entire time!

Modern Family is the most overrated bit of entertainment I've ever seen. It's not so much that it's bad (it's solidly middle-of-the-road at worst) but that it gets so much fucking praise for being a run-of-the-mill family comedy where the characters occasionally talk to the camera.

It would have been funnier to keep the Assange joke, but have his voice done  by Professor Frink or something.

Median is generous. This is substantially below par in what has been a good season (at least, compared to the last half-dozen or so). Few of the jokes landed, the plot was nonsensical, and the conclusion half-baked. Ugh. Worst in a while.

I think it was just working like they usually do - subconscious and involuntary movements or whatever, that you steer towards what you were thinking. I forget how it really works. But both of them were happy enough with a little love note to construct it themselves.
