Troy and Britta come to mind, if he had different plans for them.

I was kind of surprised she just vanished after that episode, not even mentioned (that I can remember) again. Abed meeting a girl that's on his wavelength is a pretty big deal.

I was about to ask why they couldn't have come up with something more clever than "The Starving Games", but then I realized it had to be something their target audience would get.

Damnit now I have to go watch it.

You know, six seasons and a movie is actually becoming plausible. Just one more season after 5, and a movie that, if a studio wouldn't pick it up, could get kickstarted no problem.

Get off the stage!

I don't get the hate. It's maybe the only S4 episode that had its own original ideas and wasn't just pandering and bringing up stuff from other seasons.

Speaking of Remedial Chaos Theory— in the 4th season puppet episode, Pierce sings that he never really had sex with Eartha Kitt in an airplane bathroom. But in Remedial Chaos Theory, he never mentioned Eartha Kitt in the real timeline. He says it in all the other timelines, but not in the real one (the last one).

I thought Under the Dome was a ripoff of Girls (right down to the little map at the beginning). Was the Simpsons movie before that?

It was Pacino that couldn't get out 'cause they kept pulling him back in.

Eh, that's a stretch. I just read the article, and it's mostly quotes from people saying "Look how big that thing is! It's ridiculous!" And then there's one quote from a local business saying they think it's hurting business. Then there's a picture showing that the thing is not that big at all, and makes no difference

I need a video clip of the Troy Stare with the Dramatic Squirrel music. Get on it, internet!

No. A return to paintball for the finale vs the evil timeline? Abed actually says the words "We made paintball cool again"? No. No.

Their "relationship" was bizarre, shoehorned in, then randomly over. It's very strange to have two characters get together on a TV show and not get to see it happen. It was just "We're back from summer vacation! Troy and Britta are sleeping together, like in he same bed, every night. No, we don't need an episode about

The first three quarters, even. It wasn't until the bloated and stupid third act that it fell apart, starting with the moment that Jeremy Irons leaves McClane alive on a boat, strapped to a bomb. It's such a dumb Bond movie moment, it drains all seriousness from the movie and turns it into a cartoon. (Then follows it

I said, "As long as it's not Lindelof, as long as it's not Lindelof…" Well played, Monkey Paw Casting Director, well played.

I didn't know rendezvous was its own plural. Thanks, A.V.club!

That headline is quite the sucker punch.

I can't tell when I'm supposed to be angry at a band for using Kickstarter and when I'm not.

Every other time I've tried to load the A.V.Club today my browser has crashed with a Flash error. Maybe it's a new ad or something, I dunno, but haven't been able to comment until now.
