I actually liked the way they worked this whole plot out, although I was annoyed by Leslie's behavior while it was happening, it all worked out in the end.

I just recently started watching Parks and Rec by starting with the first part of season 3 and watching a couple episodes before deciding I needed go further back, to the halfway season 2 point before watching a couple episodes and deciding I needed to watch them all.  Which I did.  In 2 weeks.

I vote New Years Eve as the sexiest holiday, since the main traditions involve drinking and kissing a person at midnight.

Never apologize for talking about Dawson's Creek!

I think the characters are finally starting to gel as it becomes more and more clear that all of them are unabashedly weird (and really isn't it more fun to hang out with weird people anyway?)
Jess - sings to herself, speaks in voices, naive
Schmidt - OCD about cooking, oddly into clothing/hair products, overcompensates

Student/teacher story lines:
-Jeff and Professor Slater on Community - A-
-Pacey and his teacher on Dawson's Creek - B+
-Aria and Ezra on Pretty Little Liars - C
-Dan and Rachel on Gossip Girl - C+
-Serena and her high school teacher (and her college professor?) on Gossip Girl - D
-Milton and his student on Boston Public - B

Oh no!  I thought for sure NBC would switch to a 3 hour comedy block again and keep both 30 Rock and Community on the schedule…. *sad face*

As with any SNL episode the key is how tired and/or drunk you are.  I was exhausted (going on two nights with almost no sleep) and therefore found this hilarious.

That was definitely the most random, and most hilarious, sketch of the night (and understandably needed to be on at the very end).

I would be okay with it if that was the only way Community could stay on the air, but I would prefer if Community did not reach Chuck levels of corporate sponsorship.

I think there is no way that she doesn't know.  Ben told Andy that he and Leslie liked each other, and if he's living with Andy and April it would have to be obvious I think when he started to date her.

I think this episode had probably the most throw away gags of any episode yet this season, and therefore it was my favorite from Season 4.  The Model UN scenes just slayed and I liked how the Ben/Leslie dynamic played off the April/Andy one.

I agree!  Him and Leslie geeking out over the flag collection and the return of their secret handshake when discussing treaty terms had me in stitches.  I love the fact that truly dorky characters are shown with such love on this show.

Aren't the Gap and Banana Republic a little low brow for Jeff's tastes… I just did not peg him for a Gap man. (And, while the Dean was clearly just at Gap to stalk Jeff, surely his tastes run more to Halloween USA than the Gap).

I am a sucker Lesben geekery in all forms and therefore loved this episode of parks.

I think I prefer episodes of Community where the whole gang is together and tonight's episode seemed too segmented to really work - I could have done without the Jeff/Dean plot (although the elaborate hospital lie was pretty great) or the Pierce paint-fume hallucination plot.  I tend to hold Community to a higher

I know! Also, I am thinking of buying a roomba just so I can convert it to one.

I think my life would be complete if only I could have a rug with Tom Haverford's face on it. =)

Being the highlight of Top Chef Masters really isn't saying that much though….

As much as I hate the fact that an artist like Sucklord can still be here, arguably over more talented artists, because of his sound bites rather than his work, man this show would be boring without him….
