I haven't even paid attention to the new pilots, really. I don't even really know what's coming on except the NBC shows (Not interested in any of them. Super-hate Blacklist already) and the Goldbergs (advertised on every stinkin' bus and train station in Chicago).  I think I'm kind of burnt out on watching…

@avclub-04e0ee7f57cb99fce8677b2f946c35af:disqus Interesting.  As a very happy car-free human, I agree with you (and I'm glad people my age and younger are increasingly ditching cars as status symbols or whatever). There are LOTS of interesting legal issues around them, for sure, but I'll leave those to the lawyers….

That's interesting that you say that about the self-driving cars, as transport is a big issue of interest to me (I'm doing my thesis on motor vehicle injuries as a work injury issue) and I keep coming across the self-driving vehicle thing. In a way, I think it has potential to be great, as people can still have the…

Community, the second episode of Bunheads, Southland.  I'm pretty sure there are others but that's all I can think of at the moment.  I'm becoming a sap in my old age.

No…but I did tell her I look to her like a mother figure for her out of the box thinking like Children of the Corn*

I just used the word "kerfuffle" in a meeting with my boss/research mentor.  She was greatly amused by use of the word, though I don't think she would have known the reference, even if I had been able to work in the word "race" before it.

Oatmeal raisin are the AT&T of cookies!

I'd assumed it was  based on the actual Masters of the sex researchers Masters and Johnson….who, admittedly, sound like a network exec made up their names while chuckling about his own cleverness.

Why are we supposed to like her, anyway?  I mean, her voice was never going to be one I would enjoy (her whole insecure-girly-girl, rom-com-y thing is just not for me) but seriously, when did she get crowned the next female comedian we have to like to be cool?

My favorite line of the Vulture review of the show: "…but really, none of that matters, because it's Braugher you want to see. If he were playing a guy named Joey Joe-Joe Junior Shabadoo and spending all 22 minutes of every episode sitting silently on an orange crate and drawing cartoons on a memo pad, you'd still be…

I scanned through them and they weren't even that bad (heck, I probably said worse things about her here…), especially if you ignore the "Saturday Night DEAD!" genre, which is just background noise to any SNL article.  So, yeah, if that bugs her, she reeeeally probably should avoid reading about herself on the…

Are you sure it was the swift hand of AVC justice and not the swift idiocy of Disqus?  I saw your original post and it was in no way different than anything else that gets posted here.  (Also, cool story, bro!)

Speaking of whom, did they cut her out of the syndication version? I didn't realize until I saw her in the credits that I don't think she was in the episode (I looked away for, like, half a second, but I don't think it was long enough to have missed that scene).

One of my local channels is showing the pilot!  Which makes me realize I've never actually watched an episode of Community in Chicago.  For some reason, it actually is feeling really strange to watch it here.  I don't think I've ever had that experience with a TV show that was so strongly associated with a place for…

ALERT ALL THE NETWORK EXECS! It worked!

Because it's fall-ish out and I'm excited to have new scripted network TV and there's nothing else on, I'm watching the new episode of Bones.  One of the characters just said: "It's reeeally getting late!  Hope we have Sleepy Hollow on the DVR!"

Maybe he's replacing Donald Glover…

It's starting to get me little worried….if those people need to come back in service of the story, great.  I just hope it doesn't turn into "look who it is!" fan service.

OF COCK!!
