Agreed about Tina and Harry! I could easily picture any other show throwing the two together (or at least having them make out on the bus ride home) and I was a little worried that would happen. I love the fact that Tina, despite being a dork/weirdo/whatever, still has enough self-confidence that she feels comfortable

Oh, I vaguely remember the mother saying it was a step-grandmother or someone once removed? Something like that. But Zach's perplexed reaction at realizing she was black was probably the hardest I laughed during the episode.

Last night's RAW was such a great palate cleanser after Wrestlemania. My friends and I were all still a bit sour on WWE after Sunday and only reluctantly watched because there was nothing else on TV but by Orton/Sheamus, we were all pretty sold because the crowd was so great (and Fandango!). Also most of the matches

I think it's because MMA is more about fighting whereas I basically view WWE as a balls-to-the-wall insane soap opera occasionally interrupted by dudes fighting each other. I'd say it has more entertaining storylines than the majority of the dramas I watch on television.

It would turn into fan-fiction very, very quickly.

Yeah, I didn't recognize her at all because I'm used to the long blonde hair (and the Scott Pilgrim vixen look, I suppose) and only realized during the end credits. But she was great and I really hope she comes back, too.

Oh, my mistake! I had spent all day thinking this was episode 7, mostly because it was 7 in the original production order.

I graded it in comparison to other episodes of Community. I thought it was a good episode, but it's still below what I've come to expect from this show. Also, and I know I didn't touch on this at all in the review, the barely-there Troy subplot didn't do anything for me. Plus it was totally predictable, and it was a

I agree, SF is one of my absolute favorite seasons. Even rewatching it, I realized that I still truly enjoy it (and was surprisingly affected by the birthday surprise they threw for Pam). Did you happen to watch the Real World: Brooklyn season? The producers allowed the cast to pursue their outside interests rather

I've always wondered what the exact rule about physical altercations is. Like, if it's ultimately up to the producers or do the roommates have to vote to evict someone? Or maybe MTV just doesn't care anymore.

Honestly, it's not that interesting but it was just a strange situation. I did the online application and got invited to an in-person group interview (at a Hooters!) and went because I'm fascinated by MTV and had nothing better to do. The strange/sad part was just meeting all of the people who were also auditioning 

Real World: St. Thomas had a roommate with a history of drug addiction. MTV randomly drug tested the roommates and he tested positive for cocaine and was immediately sent home.

Yeah, the 8th roommate Nia replaces one of the original roommates later in the series.

Yeah, I vaguely remember reading some article months ago where Tim Allen references Archie Bunker and talks about how Allen's S2 character has stronger opinions about "controversial" stuff mostly to provide some sort of water cooler talk the next day (because in Tim Allen's head, everyone is gathered around eager to

I just hope this article starts a national discussion about how great Wonderfalls was.

I didn't HATE Season 5 but I don't think it was one of their high points. I was always a little iffy on the Avery storyline (as much as I love Elizabeth Banks) and I think "TGS Hates Women" is in my bottom three 30 Rock episodes.

I just want to make an Emmy out of paperclips and old chewing gum to give to Jane Krakowski because she has been killing it since the pilot episode and never gets the proper recognition.

Yeah, I got that St. Elsewhere reference but that scene was more about the joke about Kenneth's immortality than it taking place in his imagination, no? Though, if you're into the whole Tommy Westphall hypothesis thing then the fact that Munch showed up would put 30 Rock into that universe.

This is the one thing I didn't like about the last few episodes, if only because Will Forte is nearly flawless whenever he does anything and if he doesn't get the lead in his own sitcom soon, I will straight up revolt against Hollywood.

The legitimate rape joke! Still one of my favorite jokes in this season. This show had pure balls the last season, but I also like that they didn't hesitate to inject a little more heart into it than usual. So much of this Season 7, especially the last few episodes, showed that they're really, REALLY good at balancing
