Grade A
I loved this episode, even though the flaws were there. That Marilyn Monroe thing was just ridiculous, and the fall of Gothy and Jesse was too fast. The fact that a nine year old kid killed Combo didn't really resonate throughout the episode.

Tre Cool
Looking like a grandma in drag.

2fer
"Jack is reluctant is reluctant to give up his kidney" - DOUBLE POST!!!

Doppleganger
Isn't the joke with Dwight's best friend that hey looks remarkably like him? I have to agree this episode was short on laughs.

Perfecto
Even though I'm not attracted to Alicia Keys, I have to say after her appearance tonite, her face is aesthetically perfect, even if she looked a little sleepy reading from the prompter. However, she has fat, odd shaped legs, and being a leg man, that was offensive.

Somehow I don't feel like that was a true gerund.

Payoff
Tonight's episode didn't resonate with me as it was predictable as what was going to happen: Walt going back to dealing, and Skyler running to her boss.

So not making it a secret somehow makes it look any better? I'll pass.

Tat-sleeve girl's charms have totally worn off on me by now; she was a terrible singer but lovely on the eyes.

Doubt
The whole No Doubt thing confuses me, especially how they seem perfectly preserved. Wasn't Gwen doing well singing songs about plantains or something? Now she wants to get away from lil Kingston? Or is it that Gavin is no fun to be around anymore.

hey
I'm a huge Conan fan (even shook his hand and sat at his desk once) but all this material, I've seen before. While we don't necessarily want change from Conan, I'm hoping for some growth.

BOTOX
Cris Miller has had some TREMENDOUS botox or plastic surgery, evident in this season. She looks awful. Hot wife, no no.

Typos: "so nobody got a full dress rehearsal, but he show must go on."

DVRs
Are they just allowed to record 30 min or 60 min blocks? They cant handle a show running over?

I loves em
I love the letter grades. They're so intriguing on the main page - "That got a B-? Can't wait to read the review!" Seeing Wolverine get a D just made me laugh out loud - "The A.V. Club does it best." Yet, I understand how flawed and arbitrary they are, and can't be taken as the be all and end all . . .

Typo
"The top five knew it's be singing old standards tonight"

Link Is Dead
Viacom took it down. I so wanted to see this too.

thrilled
That this is Lil Round's last week. With any hope, this will be an Anoopless universe soon enough.

Stupid
Stupid Rushmore being so great yet inspiring fare like this.

Intro
I thought the video introduction would get more coverage in the write up, as I can't even fathom such an intro on any other show ever. It was a bit long, but very well done.
