Good to know — I'm in the SF Bay Area, and right now it's only showing in San Francisco… parking there is so damn expensive, that the whole shebang gets pricey.

I liked that. A Pax Network Joint, if I remember right.

Also, checkers. No one ever actually plays it. The one person will be sitting at the table, and then another person briefly sits down and quickly wins the game in one extended move. He says nothing. Then he gets up and walks away. Other character is left sitting, mouth agape in shock and indignation. NO ONE ever

And in case no one "got it," the little girl drew an eye patch on the chess piece. I felt embarrassed.

That wasn't the one with the deaf cop, was it?

Has anyone watched this "on demand" yet? I have Xfinity, and you can only buy it… for $18… which I wouldn't mind, if it was a dvd copy. But for a dvr copy? I just want to rent it.
EDIT:
Ugh. I can't believe I forgot about asking internet:

NYPD Blue did. Jimmy Smits' gf or wife.

On tv, all the smart people wear glasses. And the nerds never talk in normal voices.

How about when one of the adult characters apparently still believes in Santa Claus, and no one can tell them?
Worse, there's the gimmick at the end of the episode where the audience and every other sane person is supposed to be proven wrong.
Gasp!
I cite both Friends and TBBT.

Oh, I guess I forgot that wasn't the name of the final episode (which was, "Don't Fade Away"?).
My bad.

Actually, if there was a sitcom with a sort of dumpy gal married to a smoking hot, superfit guy… no matter if it was really bad, I might just watch it on principle.

Holy crap. That's uncalled for.

Little House did that a lot, too.

For a while, anyway, no one gave birth in a hospital, either. It was always an elevator, taxi, whatever.

They do this on (multi-camera) sitcoms a lot: show a character on the phone, but instead of having you actually hear the other caller, they just have the original person repeat everything that is said: "Let me get this straight: you want ME to drive YOUR COUSIN to the EMERGENCY ROOM because you think he has FOOD

Check the heating vent; that little monkey has quite the stash.

Single people (usually guys) making fun of each other because they haven't had sex in, say, a month. No single person I know somehow gets laid multiple times a week without having a boyfriend or girlfriend.

Haha, me too. Actually, sob…
We'll all be alone: TOGETHER.

They did make the high school really polarized: sort of like a West Side Story thing.

Yes. He's chained to my bed. Mind your own business!
