Well, at least the first book in the series will be good.

Ponce! You're a g-g-g-g-g- dead guy!

I really do admire how the show is going to great lengths to SMASH the gay stereotypes by having black, beer-drinking, sports-loving, God-fearing gay Sam as an approaching-main character. But damn it if it doesn't feel ridiculously contrived—every chance they get, they make it clear how straight-acting he is, even

Mr Principal, I started this job to pay off some gambling debts, and my rent, and this tab I've racked up at Rack Ups… yeah, it's a strip club, don't judge me, but that's beside the point. I never wanted this job. I didn't deserve this job. I thought these kids were nothing but hopeless losers, with no chance in life.

His facial reaction when Michael said "It ended a long time ago" was the best acting on the show so far. He genuinely looked like a man who'd just seen his entire life collapse around him.

I really like Easter Beagle, if solely for the fact that when the kids go shopping for Easter supplies, the mall is adorned with huge Christmas trees and signs reading "Only 215(ish) more shopping days 'til Christmas!"

I thought the Dean WAS J.P. Manoux when I first started watching. And I clearly wasn't the only one.

Maybe I need to rewatch it, but I thought the whole thing was kind of muddled. I think the immediate reveal threw me off too much, so the entire time I was thinking "Okay, where on earth are they going with this?" And then it was really sad and I felt terrible for Robin.

That was the one part I didn't like (not that they kissed, that was obvious. The Community ripoff I took issue with). But otherwise, I loved it. Especially the bear ("Oh God, not like this! Not like this!")

Wouldn't you rather watch Christmas Ape, and Christmas Ape Goes to Summer Camp?

He should be very proud. He has a nice home there.

Didn't Popular have essentially the best "The Wedding" episode possible, when it incorporated every big TV ratings ploy (including killing off a cast member by video camera roulette)? If Murphy draws from that episode, next week should be great.

"He's going to be vengeance from on heil!"

The first five minutes I thought would be standard fare, but the Lily/Marshall line got better and better, Ted and Zoey taking on the "Formidable Opponent" relationships was great, and Barney and Robin having a grand old time in the museum was hilarious, especially how they continued to escalate the madness. Then the

The "Jeremy" riff was easily the best part of the episode.

*Attempts to make a meta-comment*

But you can see why people who disagree with him don't like him. He's viewed as a highly-intelligent, incredibly-funny everyman, but he's quite liberal. I'd imagine it would be frustrating for conservatives who realize that he's making fun of them, and no one's calling him out for partisanship.

"He's a former scam-artist looking to clean up the city he loves! HE'S a tough-guy loner who can hear dead people's thoughts! Together they're the toughest crime fighting duo on the West Side! Be sure to catch SeCON'd Sight, this fall on FOX!"

"Raise a Little Hell?"

*BANG! BANG!*
