'What about the teases? WE DON'T LET THEM IN.'

So with Fringe back for 13 and Community for 13… Choosing the timeline in which Community does not get picked up for a back 9 (and this is the final season) does that mean there's a possible Friday where the final ever episodes of Community and Fringe end back-to-back?

@avclub-70bbc051341bb1f5c1fdb481a767c1cc:disqus  - it's funny that you count Virtual Systems Analysis as a perfect episode but then say you dislike some of the forced darkness (good phrase, by the way) as this is the episode that I felt most suffered from 'forced darkness'. But then I loved Course Listing Unavailable…

Regardless of how long the show 'could' run for (referenced in the last episode) I think 4 years is the perfect length for it - it starts with Jeff starting community college with his plan being to attend for 4 years. Damn it, he has a table booked for a celebratory dinner on May 23rd 2013!

Not to make you feel old @avclub-cfe912f5cb3aa572bd1c9ae2a9b82207:disqus but Happiness is 14 yars old now. A whole new generation of kids have been born, grown up and excitedly announced their first ejaculation to their family since its release.

OF COCK?

The Lesbian Spank Inferno episode is a masterclass in building and building the 'situation' part of the sitcom and watching it explode. The climactic dinner scene is incredible, perfectly finished with Steve's defence of the integrity of porn.

You love Love and Monsters but dislike Amy Pond? Your Sopranos reviews are the only thing keeping us as friends now.

@Brainlock - except that Ashes to Ashes aired its conclusion a week before Lost.

RTD has the worst 'tell, don't show' attitude. For a start his awful prophecies which became overbearing and stupid, especially as characters would suddenly become magical to tell them to him (the suddenly-prophetic 'he will knock four times' bus passenger). Even in his final episode he threw in that Timelord…

'The Writer's Tale' actually turned me off from RTD. I was really excited to read it as, though I wasn't the biggest fan of his writing style, series 4 of Doctor Who had completely blown me away and I was interested in how it all came together. But learning how in love with his own ideas he was, how most of it came…

Sorry Space Gandalf, I too rank that as a bad episode. In fact I rank it as the worst episode in the reboot. And not for the blowjob joke, which I thought was the only clever moment of the episode, but for every single other frame and sound of that episode. The horrible, ridiculous, cringe-worthy use of Mr. Blue Sky…

He's got a point though. There's loads of us who appreciate The Sopranos… fuck it, I'm going to say 'on a deeper level' and sound like a cliched pretentious twat. But I don't doubt that there are loads of people who watched that episode - my favourite of the series - and just thought 'Fuck, his head got cut off and…

No.. I… did… not! But so what? It was a fucking horse!

I love the last points but the POV being 10 seconds - I don't buy that as a connection being as Chase wanted the final POV to be 30 seconds and this epsidoe was made, edited and aired months before the decision was made to have it as short as it was. The length of the POVs is just coincidence.

I don't think where Tony is in the coma-dream is Purgatory, being as he is still alive. It's limbo as his soul decides whether or not to relent and detach itself from the mortal world. Once he's made that choice - by going in the Inn - that's when Tony's mortal body would die his soul would pass through to the…

With regards to Vito's subplot is there a better phrase we can use than 'he couldn't pull it off'?

It not only gave us the "I love you, Johnny-cakes" line, it also gave us the scene where Finn tells the crew what he saw and Tony's "He's a faaa-aaag!" line to Melfi. Both of which are brilliant bits of comedy.

Well if the Home Builder's Organization won't be supporting them then I think it's Showtime! I think they should have a show during dinner.

Agreed, it sounds really amplified compared to Bale's line before it. Who knows, maybe that mask is a glued-on loudspeaker. If you're going to be heard to the crowd at an exploding football stadium then you need all the help you can get.
