Yeah, I only laughed once, which is a first for me and this show.

Sigh. This review is spot-on. I only laughed once ("Not for the usual reason."). Making Abed even more autistic-y is SUCH a big mistake. And in such a lame, uncreative way, to boot.

I did not know that. Thanks so much!

Psssst. He plays Garrett.

Me, neither.

Me, neither.

I'd watch the heck out of that.

If lavender even touches me, I break out in a rash. Eating it would probably be REALLY expensive.

This. I read AK primarily on buses while commuting. Tolstoy is a great novelist - yeah, his work has some heavy ideas, but he also knows how to keep a plot moving.

Oh, goodie. I've watched the series straight through any number of times. When I was a teen I had a BIG BIG BIG crush on Peter Graves.

It's not what is said, it's HOW it is said.

Darn it. I was looking forward to 'Downwardly Mobile.' It sounded like it might be really good.

Will you all kick me if I confess I far prefer the Honor Blackman episodes? And the B&W Peel eps are OK, but once they went to color, the show became quite silly and given to long-winded plot rehashes.

Oh, yeah - I worked several years for a Shakespeare company, so I love the Bard. I also love a good musical - but I agree there are a lot of horrible musicals out there.

I was a bit miffed at Geoffrey's slam against Rogers and Hammerstein in the final episode. R&H are da bomb.

Oh, gosh, I took one of those 'which character are you' quizzes on FB and I turned out to be Darren, to my everlasting shame.

Have you ever had someone you love die? The phenomenon of the bereaved still hearing and seeing their lost one is quite common. Perhaps that's where the concept of 'ghosts' comes from.

I'm the baby! Gotta love me!

Poor Oliver - he's surrounded by this wonderful community of artists, but he's also a profoundly lonely man. The performances in this show are so wonderful, even the ancillary characters are rich and subtle. I even like Sloan, he's actually a fine, kind, caring young man. He's wrong for Ellen, but he's a nice person…

May I confess that I fell in love with DM while watching all the extras on the extended LOTR?
