I am much more concerned with CBS's definition of "good"

Don't forget escapism.  RKO in the 1930s comes to mind.

For fear of reading too much into the episode, the guys reaction to the gay couple was actually critical of TV in general.  They were generally fine with them, at times uncomfortable when they showed too much affection, but ultimately overly accepting when they figured there was a dollar to be made… just like TV…

While I always considered the religious rants against rock music as BS, nothing quite caused me to reconsider things until, in my Lutheran HS, we were shown videos in religion class of talks by Kent Hovind and Ken Ham.  Not only were they both Young Earth Creationists, but Hovind believed that social security numbers…

The titular mother will actually turn out to be the runaway teenager who had her baby stolen by Ted who grew into the older sibling.  It will take another 9 years for him to reveal the mother of the younger sibling.

I think it's easier to find reruns, especially on local channels, of older sitcoms.  What is harder to find are the variety shows that ruled tv for so long.  No one reruns those anymore and there really isn't much of a nostalgic call for them.

Alec Baldwin playing a character that enjoys talking to his daughter?  Now there is some Emmy worthy acting

The gun was then discarded on 5th Avenue, right before the shooter took a fun dip in the river.  The shooter was described as looking like a nerd, and attempted to hang himself with a super rope.  Authorities are still looking for an accomplice, who was the shooter's sugar daddy.

Anyone else worried that this will suck?  Sit Down, Shut Up and Running Wilde weren't exactly classics

Reallly?  Peter Gunn Theme? No one?

Look the show isn't perfect, but it does have dinosaurs and the promise of more dinosaurs.  And when you throw the show into the bigger picture of Fox programming it really isn't so bad.  House, Bones, Glee, Fringe, cartoons and questionable sitcoms that can be enjoyable.  If you are watching this, just relax and…

This episode delivered more than others this season.  Some real laugh moments (Phil and his attraction to strong women, Luke and his war on drugs comment), everyone coming together, a good interaction between Gloria and Claire, and hey a smarmy David Cross.  Also, some great physical comedy, not quite the level of the…

As with any list, there will be much debate over omissions, and I submit 2.
