And how he kept repeating "YOU CAN'T GIVE CANDY TO A BABY!" I really thought they were gonna accuse him of being a pedophile or something… but it was about teeth brushing. This show…

Holt actually joining the hug… I couldn't stop laughing about how matter-of-fact his decision to be in on the hug was.

"Gotta be known for something." - Kyle, winner.

Um no no no and just no. First of all, I'm a woman with bipolar who wants children and has gone through her options with psychiatrists and gynecologists. It's either get off your meds and risk suicide (by the way, Lithium isn't even all that effective for depression, so I don't know if the producers don't realize that…

That's what I've been told by doctors. It's not clear to me whether she's been dosed on lithium, which is not safe for the baby, but if she is, that kid is gonna be fucked up.

Eh, from personal experience (I should say multiple experiences in the psych unit), she would have to explain why she went off her meds and they would immediately put her on meds. And they ask you to take a urine test for pregnancy, even if you say you're not pregnant, they want to make sure you're not lying as Carrie…

It's really too late. You have to go off your meds the moment you get pregnant. And the mental ward would have told her to terminate the pregnancy. It's just not realistic.

Look, I have bipolar, and whatever your moral convictions are on abortion, she shouldn't be having this baby. The baby will either die or she will get in serious trouble or it will have bad deformities. It's a lose-lose situation either way.

Ever heard of Ken Tremendous? It's his sportswriting alter ego. He was also quite awesome.

Loved the Frankie subplot because it reminds me so much of my mom when we make fun of her. Seriously, she can never get right and left straight (pun not intentional), and she's no dummy, either. Although, I should really shut up about that because I'm pretty sure it's hereditary.

The first episode was hilarious. Why the fuck would the National Zoo have turnstiles? It's free, and that's kinda what it's known for.

And the teacher's horrified reaction was perfect.

You'd think the Emmys would have some shred of self-respect and stop giving a show that has gone downhill steadily since its inaugural season all this love (ahem, Modern Family). You're right, the Academy has abandoned network dramas (for good reason, the cable stuff is just miles ahead of everything except the Good…

it's network television. I'm pretty sure the FCC prevents them from saying the word we're all thinking of, although maybe it's just conventional curse words. And it's not a mockumentary so they can't bleep it out. As a stand in for that word, I was okay with suspending disbelief (which is hard for me, normally.…

it looks like they're gearing up for a romantic pairing of some sort. Especially last week they were pushing the Santiago/Peralta thing. So that could bring some serialization.

I liked both the A and B plots a lot. And I do believe it deserves at A-, but it would be an A if I didn't find myself, unlike you, missing Gina. She brings everything up a notch.

You know what I meant. He's not nearly as obnoxious as he has been in his other roles. And he's actually funny more than sometimes, which is a big step up.

I love how immediately when he heard the whale songs he fell like a surf board onto the couch.

he's not that bad, in fact the most tolerable he's probably ever been. He's pleasantly surprised me. And any obnoxiousness is quickly outweighed by how awesome every single other character is, even the minor ones like the two fat cops.

I'm guessing Peralta is Italian-American. Samberg is Jewish though.
