You know, for kids!

I pay $5/month for the most bare bones phone line possible and $30/month for my DSL connection. I pay $60/month for my unlimited calling/data plan. Why would I pay $150/month to Comcast for a phone/cable/internet package? There's a ton of people that have broadband (DSL) that don't pay for cable.

Ha. What I wrote doesn't apply to me personally, but I'll stand by what I said. In real life two people in their 30s don't "date" for over a month while forgoing sex. It's ludicrous, although I liked how Ann was in love with his apartment last week.

I think you misunderstood my post. I wasn't disagreeing with the percentages in your post. I simply like expressing myself in percentages as well, which are sometimes different in my examples than your (or Sepinwalls) examples. Apples and oranges. Carry on.

Ann (not Rashida Jones) is the weak link. Especially for a show that Mike Schur claims is largely based around a strong female friendship. Leslie's character has a deeper friendship with Ron and Tom, and it's arguable she's developed a deeper relationship (if not outright friendship) with April. From the first season…

1) Agreed. If you haven't spent several hundred hours of your life watching original Law & Order then that's your own problem. Community was so good that it was as compelling as an actual L&O episode while being amazingly funny. If I was King of NBC I would comission Dan Harmon to reboot the series in collaboration…

I'm not sure I understand this post, but I find myself liking it per its sentence structure.

I noticed/remembered a through-line with this episode and Telethon. Leslie kills time by describing/acting-out an episode of Friends. Wait, was Phoebe there……

I noticed, but was still horribly disappointed with the episode. I've missed the last four or five and it barely registered with me that Andy was fired.

The Roadhouse description was so amazingly good though. I've seen about 33% of the movie on TV and another 10% on youtube clips (and I'm sure 20% of the movie is just people talking or something boring anyway). I immediately knew what movie he was talking about. For a split second "Point Break" entered my mind, but…

Yeah, this was straight up funny. I enjoy the character stuff perfectly fine, but there's no way I would claim that that's why I keep watching this show. I loved the Dreamatorium episode last week, but the character development provided a vehicle for really fantastic jokes, as it should.

Me too. And that would have been decently funny. But I was absolutely slayed by that last line. It was just too perfect. I love the first decade of L&O and that was just so spot on.

I didn't watch L&O much in the Anthony Anderson era, but I felt like Abed's facial expressions and mannerisms was a dead on impression of Lennie Briscoe (Jerry Orbach). I could be overlaying my own L&O biases over the show. Needless to say this episode worked for me in a big way.

That was the only episode I truly didn't like when it aired. I've since rewatched it on DVD and it was better than I remembered, but still missed something essential throughout that plotline even if I can't say what. The Pierce plotline with the "hipsters" is perfect though.

Ok, still rewatching, and just have to point out another awesome joke. I'm sure everyone caught in the beginning when Abed says that the correct word is Blorgon and that Blogon means "thank you" in Blorgon. At the end when Annie is beating up the Blorgon she says, "You'll Blogon me for this later."

Loved it. Rewatching it this morning and there's plenty of great jokes, but I think the main central conceit of the Dreamatorium is pulled off fantastically. I never lost the conceptual thread that this was Annie and Abed just talking, like when "Jeff" goes in for a kiss or "Troy" is administered truth serum, or even…

Britta confirms it. He's up to his waist in hot snatch.

Chevy is probably the bigger asshole, but Dan Harmon is self-aware about his assholishness which means it's up to him to not play into it. This voicemail is from a pure unaware place of assholishness.

I DON'T WANT ANY OATS! And I don't appreciate that seductive glance that the guy in the sailor jammies is giving me with that spoon in his mouth. Choice of a new generation that's already going bald.

Incorrect. They got bought out by Chase.
