None!  They're all UCB folk and I only really know the AT&T guy and, of course, Michael Patrick O'Brien, who I got to see perform once last year.  I can't believe Chicago got shut out.  I could fill those five slots with fantastic Chicago folks a couple times over!  I wonder the last time they had 5 new featureds.

Liked both for including Fruit Snacks in your answer to #2 (I'm on a weird fruit snack bender lately) and because I love your idea for #8 and am annoyed with myself for not remembering him as one of my favorite tertiary characters

1.  Mosquitoes and bats so I don't have to be afraid when I travel? Bears so I don't have to be afraid when I camp? Sharks so I don't have to be afraid when I surf?  This question is revealing some anxiety issues…

…sings and dances….knocks that American Idol loser off the show…

Exactly.  Yay for more Bailey Buntain on TV.  Boo for everything else.  She deserves much better than this one-dimensional snobby high school mean girl kind of role.  I particularly loved how vulnerable and a little neurotic she played Ginny, which contrasted nicely with her perfect, blonde high-school-mean-girl

Chevy's in this?

I'm currently learning from a CD (and Biscuit. And what Biscuit says to the football on tv.

Aww thanks!  You can't tell, but that walrus is saying "bleep bloop!"

The Latin roots of words are mildly useful with medical terms, but, much like on the SAT, you can figure out those roots just by having a good vocabulary and recognizing them in other words.  Meanwhile, Spanish actually lets you talk to patients, which is, of course, is always a useful skill :)

Well this just makes me happy.

Aww…I just passed 5K with no celebration.  Can I be 5K twice because 5K is really hard for everyone?

English.  That's it.  Because in my stupid, backwards, old-school South high school,  Spanish was for slackers, French was kind of random, and if you were a "good student" you took Latin, because that would supposedly help you on the SATs.  (False.  Know what helps you on the SATs?  Reading and developing a good

This is my Sophie's Choice….

@avclub-b7a8211586995578af1a2a97cfd214ca:disqus YESSS!  I haven't even watched Breaking Bad, unless you count one episode on an international flight (I know, bad TV nerd!), so I don't have any happiness specifically related to Jonathan Banks, but I'm thrilled that this hopefully means giving Annie some direction! Does

Definitely a grower for me, as well.  I wasn't that on-board on the first viewing.  The Kiss From a Rose montage kind of weirded me out, in that way that I'm always nervous the first time watching each Community episode that this is the one where they go off the rails.  But, as others have said, it's just such a fun

She did go missing for a good part of the summer….Orange is the New SBT!!!!

Eh.  I feel like Aubrey Plaza is much like Jack McBrayer and Tina Fey.  She plays one thing and she plays it well, but I'm not convinced there's that much of the craft of acting going on with her work.  It's more simply slotting her "thing" (I'm pretty sure that's phrasing, one way or another…) into whatever show

Ahhh…Hong Kong in the early morning.  Best airport breakfast I've ever had.

Yeah, that's why I'm mostly an outdoor exerciser.  I can run or bike much farther when I'm looking at the scenery or motivated by wanting to reach a favorite spot on the lakefront than when I'm stuck on a treadmilll.  Though I did actually have some luck with doing a speed-training plan that involved changing

Me too!  I love watching the activities on the tarmac and the view on takeoff and landing (especially certain cities, like San Diego, where you fly right through downtown to get to the airport, or Chicago, where it's just so satisfying to see the grid layout of the city) and having the wall to lean against if I want
