Oh god, I actually watched the entirety of that Grumpy Cat movie because I was of the belief that Aubrey Plaza could make anything amazing. It was the wake-up call I needed.

This was an ambitious season, and unlike Season 2 which fit snuggly in the 13 episodes ordered, Season 3 was begging for a few more to let some of those later plots breathe. (This excludes the 8-month time jump, which I stand by being a smart move.) But I’m really happy this show has been able to continue this long

Rachel Bloom hugged me once. I now realize that life peaked there, and that everything since has been underwhelming and pointless.

I love that this show constantly finds new ways to spin its theme song(s), but none have topped the original Paula/Scott spoken theme for me. Trent’s “Just a Boy in Love” may have come the closest.

The cat song was the hardest I’d laughed at any song this season...until about a minute later when the Trent theme song happened.

I thought Tonight had at least a couple interesting ideas (I dig “Lucid Dreams”), but I don’t remember a damn thing about their 4th album. But I consider Franz to be one of several mid-00's UK bands that had two great albums and then jumped off a cliff.

Fuck it, here’s where everyone ends up:

This brings up so many questions in a show that already had a billion questions. Did Jean-Ralphio exist on the real Earth, or just the post-death iteration of Earth created for Eleanor and co? Since Jean-Ralphio faked his death in the Parks and Rec finale, is this a fake Jean-Ralphio, while the real Jean-Ralphio is in

Agreed. Every time I’ve been to Panda Express (and it’s been years now since my last visit), I feel like I’m getting a slop of sauce and a bunch of batter with no meat. It’s repulsive.

Vinyl’s made a comeback recently, so my refusal to abandon CD’s should look pretty smart in about 30 years when hipsters try to bring CD’s back.

The time-jump was a great solution to my two minor concerns - A) I wasn’t really looking forward to a Heather pregnancy arc, and B) Valencia is the one character I feel this show has struggled to find what to do with for the last year. This way, we get peak Heather anguish (her cry-insulting Hector was easily the

One of my first reactions was “Someone in the AV Club comments totally called this.” Don’t recall if it was just you or multiple people, but nice work.

I would gladly take a Matt Berninger guest song over the inevitable mid-album Martin song.

“The Bones of What You Believe” may be the album I’ve played the most in my car this decade. Every song on it was infectious, and “Every Open Eye” was pretty fucking good too. I’m not 100% sold on this new song and its repetitive chorus, but whenever this album comes out is probably still bad news for any other artist

I love the implication that Father Brah learned about a 2am poker club at an office where he doesn’t work, meaning he doesn’t have a key to the office, and gets let in every week anyway. I love Father Brah.

I initially predicted that Nick Offerman would play Shawn. That said, after reading the Mary Steenburgen suggestion, I’m now fully in support of a Mary-Ted Danson showdown season finale.

Muse haven’t put out something worth listening to since 2006.

An unused “George Is Getting Coffee Song” take was just posted to Twitter, and I’m legitimately sad this didn’t make it in:

I think my favorite part of “Get Your Ass Out of My House” - which was wonderful throughout - was Amy Hill’s mic drop into the trash.

Refrigerate KFC hot wings, eat them cold, and they taste infinitely better.
