Eh, I thought it was decent, probably a B. It was cute with the family yelling "Marco" and seeing Phil excited at the end. I do agree with the cyclical nature of the jokes, though - almost every joke I can see coming now. (As an example, when Jay said, "What do you want her to be doing, holding a big sign in the first

I became obsessed with this song and album when I was, like, 8, and my mom always played it. I didn't really listen to music then, so "Rock Lobster" was my first favorite song. Also loved "Planet Claire."

I do like parts of this season - I like how Abby is being used, and I rather like the Fitz and Mellie scenes this year. At least for me, Fitz is only really annoying/douchey when Olivia is involved.

Nah.

Cam and Mitchell's plot was mildly funny. Gloria, Manny, and Jay's plot was one of the worst I've ever seen on this show.

Maybe to an extent, but I'd still like to see the serious tone more often. Besides, there's a happy in-between, like with the shows I mentioned.

I'd give this a C+ or B-. Didn't find it that funny, although I got a couple unexpected laughs, like when Cam said, "'Sup, dude?" The tag was good, too.

Glad this is doing well. I actually disliked the series a lot, more than most YA series I've read, but I always thought it would work a lot better as a movie than a book.

There's always Shameless.

I'm not sure how I like what they're doing with Libby, but for some reason, I like this season much more than the first. It seems to have more humor (last week's episode made me laugh quite a few times, if I'm thinking of the right one), and all the plots have really intrigued me. I've liked pretty much all the

Yeah, the OCD is almost always what determines it for me.

I'd say definitely, even though 8 is generally bad and 9 has some bad episodes. The finale, the second-to-last episode, and some others like "Lice" and "Dwight Christmas" make it worth it, in my opinion.

I largely agree with this, aside from two things:

Yeah, I definitely agree that The Middle is more relatable and realistic. I just never enjoyed it as much, I guess.

The Middle. I watched three full seasons and found it okay, but I always found Modern Family much funnier, and I even found Modern Family to be more emotional for me (at least at that time). And most people (critically, especially here) would agree that The Middle is far superior, especially in the later seasons.

Agreed, I really enjoyed this. Going into next season fairly optimistically.

Well, I don't want to give away what happens, but the title of the article is slightly misleading and doesn't actually tell what ends up happening. But I do agree with you that the titles can be spoilery, even if they're misleading.

Pretty psyched, he fits in so well on New Girl.

Well, I guess it just worked for me, then. I thought this was fantastic, and even though I didn't actively care about Lizzie and Micah, it was still really horrifying. Carol's reactions made me tear up a lot. Huh.

One of the weakest of the season for me. I liked the Black History Month short, but most of the skits fell flat. I'd give it a C or C+. Drake was the best for me, I'd give that an A-.
