For Buffy, I think you can watch just a handful of S1 and get to the good stuff. Watch the first two, "Angel," and "Prophecy Girl" if you are pressed for time. The others are bad to "eh". Season 2 is where things start to really get good.

I know it sounds like the name of a girl in a Fall Out Boy song. But it's real all the same.

This is amazing. Now I want to have someone in "The Lie" claim how they got a flaming arrow in the knee.

Lindelof and Cuse actually bring in episode editor Mark Goldman along to talk about the episode, and it was a smart choice to do so. Some really fascinating discussion there.

OK, that made me snort. Well done. I love the idea of characters from other shows wandering into the bar.

This is why calls for "comedy" and "drama" ring false to me. Every drama has funny stuff in it. And plenty of so-called comedies have tons of pathos/dramatic moments. The idea that "Louie" can only be judged how much it makes people laugh seems silly and reductive.

It's my personal #1 show of 2011, and something I can't recommend highly enough. It's best to watch both seasons, but watching S2 as a standalone is also extremely rewarding.

My feelings about "Community" are irrelevant here. I certainly don't despise it. But I also didn't do the image/alt-text at the top of this article, either.

I'd put Season 2 into the inner circle of great seasons of TV in the past decade. It's top to bottom awesome.

One of which featured the line about Ace Ventura and Titanic, a line almost as good as the ScarJo one.

I'm actually in the same boat as you: I'm an outlier here on "Community," as I appreciate it but never fell in love with it. But making the comparison between the two shows still felt valid in a "then versus now" way.

Zeppo's right, I'm wrong. "Sam at Eleven," indeed.

We've already seen him, a few episodes ago, in "The Tortelli Tort."

Well played. Well played indeed.

I am down with that idea, but only if Katey Segal appears as Gemma.

Nope. Just ironically commenting on how impossible it would be to predict.

But Cartman owned up to making up Mitch the entire time, no? After he convinced everyone it was POSSIBLE he didn't know anything about "Mitch," he then admits it was a prank to mess with his friends. Whereas tonight, he doesn't truly realize he's killed the other dolls until the very end.

Nah, that was Season 2, in the Tom Sawyer/Missile Command episode.

It worked a lot better than it would have had the Rangers sealed the deal last night. No doubt.

If I got you to register, I've done my job here. I got a $1,000 bonus for every person I get to register. Usually, it's hard to prove that I was the sole cause, but you've helped me immensely. Thanks!
