It was Christ Carter saying "Previously on"? Neat.

The X-Files definitely had "previously ons." Mitch Pileggi would intone "Previously on…The X-Files…."

Which one is the Waitress? Is it the ugly one? Was it the ugly one?

Krasinski had a small role in For Your Consideration. Pretty funny.

Wizard did it.

Plus Anne would eat a hard boiled egg and squirt mayo into her mouth….

I had the volume on low while I read about Community. I can't comment too much on the quality without being able to hear it. But sheesh, the cast even isn't that attractive. At least the people on Friends were good looking. I don't mean to disparage the actors, but…

Tail. I've always wanted one.

"NAveryW …is a perfectly acceptable word used in the Bible. "

It appeared to me that Abed/Elf Maiden had his/her hands tied above his/her head at the end….

Pendrell was easier to relate to because he was so "normal." He looked "normal," he had a fairly normal job (working in a lab), he was kinda dorky, he didn't chase crazy conspiracies. The Lone Gunman never felt all that real to me.

Agent Pendrell
I *loved* Agent Pendrell. Yeah, I was a Shipper and all that, but I totally wanted Pendrell and Scully to go on a date. Or at least for Pendrell to be around a while…. When you think about it, The X-Files has a really small cast, so Pendrell was always a nice addition.

I agree, Belgand. The stakes are lower — when he was a prof, they had to put up with it. Now, they could really just ignore it.

I enjoyed having Change back as a crazy teacher. I have missed that. As a teacher, I found Season 1 Chang so cathartic….

I think Britta babysitting would be similar to Daria babysitting — you think it will be crazy, but the kids are fine in the end. Britta babysitting and having it go crazy seems little too…cliche.

Neat comparison!

I think the writers fudged the numbers for the sake of the misdirect.

I adore Britta. Her flashing her tits was the highlight of the episode. I wish Britta was my friend.

Don't forget that severed finger….

I'm glad they didn't mention it. There was a lot of explaining in this show: Remember Halloween? Remember Anthropology? Remember Rich? Remember Change? Remember Shirley's Ex?
