No love for "Baba O'Riley" and "Bargain" from the fabulous "Who's Next"?

Me neither. Some great episodes in Season 3, but it was decidedly weaker than Season 2, which itself was not quite as consistent as Season 1 (although it contains the show's strongest run of episodes, "Epidemiology" through "Mixology Certification").
Yeah, that grade was insane. We must have been watching different episodes.
@avclub-9afff0211eb09c350cfc3101fb8ad116:disqus Christ, yes.
I thought this was a pretty average episode (which isn't to say "bad"), but I did really like Andy finally doing something other than saying stupid things and receiving alternating indulgent, pitying, or nonplussed looks from those around him.
Have you seen Aziz Ansari's Tumblr or whatever it is? I laughed at that joke because he actually does that in real life.
This reminds me: I think it's pretty fucking pathetic that NBC fired Dan Harmon because he and Chevy Chase didn't get along, and then Chevy Chase ended up walking out before production wrapped anyway.
Controversial opinion: the prog-flavored Phil Collins era of Genesis ("Trick of the Tail" through "Genesis") is superior to the Peter Gabriel era.
The anime bit in the foosball episode worked because it was brief and a total non sequitur. The "Greendale Babies" bit made me cringe because it went on for way too long and was actually a plot point.
It's like the New Order of "Community".
Yes, but the zombies were fun. This felt incredibly, painfully forced.
There is even less romantic chemistry between them than there is between Alison Brie and Joel McHale, whose scenes together starting in Season 3 have felt like fanservice for 20-something fangirls who think they're really pretty together and are into "older guys".
I don't really want Jeff and Britta to settle down with each other, but I've enjoyed the show mining their sexual tension (and occasional hookups) for comedy.
A Troy/Britta/Jeff/Annie quadrangle, actually. But it's less like they're setting it up and more like that started happening in Seasons 1 and 2.
I feel the same way. I laughed a few times, but it honestly felt like I was forcing it because I really wanted it to be "Community", dammit.
I gave up on "The Office" after the godawful wedding episode. I've seen several episodes since then (a couple of which were okay, not terrible), but it's just not the same show at all. It started going downhill early in Season 4, and the Michael Scott Paper Co. was its last hurrah.
The fake ads were easily the funniest part of the episode.
I've said it before, but Season 1 > Season 2 > Season 3.

Season 1 > Season 2 > Season 3
