Simon Helberg really excels at being insane, twitchy and broken on video chat. Seems like he's found an acting niche!

I love Zoe and Wash as a couple, of course, and their banter is aways a delight, but this line always bothered me a little. At this stage in history spaceships would no longer be seen as science fiction because they've been real for quite awhile. Science fiction would mean something else. It's like someone today

I think with Raj they're kind of in a tough spot. He doesn't have much of an ongoing story, and the show is basically a relationship comedy, so their options are to either get rid of him entirely, have him become comfortable with the single life, do another permutation of "nerd guy gets a girl", or make him gay.

Much like this week's New Girl I thought the basis of the episode was stupid (Nick / Jess flirtation and Penny / Leonard relationship troubles respectively) but each episode saved it with jokes. I guess I can handle Sheldon being a jerk that people still hang out with and so his scenes to me with Leonard and Penny

New GIrl has the ability to take a premise that I absolutely dreaded (Nick and Jess flirting and doing a will-they / won't-they) and pack it with so many hilarious one-liners that I end up charmed anyway. They could do an episode about the characters watching paint dry and fill it with enough banter to make it work.

I feel like the fact that Sheldon was willing to even seriously the borrowed Spiderman speech at all at Amy's request was about as big of a step as they're willing to make on his emotional intimacy. Which is fine with me because Amy wouldn't be as funny if she weren't frustrated in life.

I thought these episodes were brilliant. My only request is that they let Winston get super creepy more often. His two best modes are "God of authority" and "Secretly the weirdest person in the room" and I crave more of it.

Hands down my biggest laugh of the night (threatened only by Nick "The Cricket" leaping).

This episode was great, and though Todd said there wasn't a lot of non-Cam and Dani stuff, I was impressed with where NIna's arc has taken her. She's been on a hell of a ride this season and she is basically killing it. That is one strong woman, and I love to see that on a genre show.

I pray to god Parks and Dolls is already in the works, akin to Leslie's book about Pawnee becoming a reality.
