I love Roger so much. He makes me feel better about my own incompetence.

Peggy cleaning out Roger's clock. Everything about that was magical.

I stopped watching the show a year or two ago and I've started watching again at season 7… I was really surprised to see them together, but I think it's going great. Their interactions are still a lot like they were, it's just the subject of their bickering that has changed a bit and they both look believably happy

Now, now. If you don't see an evolutionary rationale for selectively accepting evidence that justifies maintaining or increasing one's social position, and having the ability to weave a tangled web of rationalizations that will convince the unwary of the rightness of one's position, why you must be anti-science.

Yeah, I know a lot of people are all like Pete is dissatisfied with the suburbs and doesn't like how parenthood has changed Trudy, and I can see that, but after 4 seasons I Believe in this couple. They love each other, more than that they like each other and function as a team, and when they aren't on the same page

When I saw her all frazzled in the "Previously on Mad Men" intro I was like "Oooh right I know that girl".

First thing : I loved this episode. While I can understand the problems you had with it, for me the ending of Troy and Abed's subplot made everything worth it.
It also offered the tantalizing suggestion that most of Chaos Theory actually happened in Abed's mind (well… I don't buy that he would have an insight into the

For some reason I thought that one of the previous glimpses we'd seen of the mother showed she was blonde. I guess it makes sense that they wouldn't have given away even that much, so I'm probably wrong.

Oh… Guys ! GUYS. What if Quinn's the mother ?

So I discovered reading further down. My bad, and my apologies to Brian Stokes Mitchell.

Re-thinking on it, her line about one of the apostles being gay does also pose a problem for that hypothesis. Oh well…

"Well maybe he wanted to but he didn't want to hurt Simon's feelings"

One of them might be black in the "one drop" sense I suppose…

I’m still baffled by Rory as a character, period. I just don’t find the
actor terribly charismatic, which leaves the character’s sole trait as
“Irish.”

I thought the drama over the God Squad performing a Lesbian Valentine! was about Mercedes, not the new guy. Her insistence that they make sure he was okay with this came across to me as someone who has problems with it but doesn't want to admit it, and thus pretends they're worried for someone else. The way the camera

I'm ready to believe such incompetent teachers would exist - especially in fields that the school doesn't much care about, which can be the case with second languages in many countries. I'm less ready to be fine with a main character we're theoretically supposed to root for being one of those teachers.

Racism is prejudice + power. I wouldn't go as far as to say it's impossible to be racist towards a dominant group (as the US in the context of the world definitely is) as some say, but what's absolutely clear is that stereotypical depiction of a dominant group and stereotypical depictions of a historically oppressed

Hah ! And Community got the pathetic levels of such a teacher right at least !
Again, Community proves better at being Glee than Glee is.

He learned a lesson a man has no business learning at his age or with his presumed teaching experience. An incompetent idiot becoming a slightly less incompetent idiot would be more palatable if he wasn't so damn smug about having Learned His Lesson. Some major Dunning-Kruger effect going on here.

Yeah, I couldn't like the episode as much as Todd did. My hatred for Will Shuester is becoming rather entrenched by now, and while I appreciate a redemption plot as much as anyone (wait, actually I TOTALLY LOVE a redemption plot), the prior behavior needs to be not-bad enough that the character remains likeable for it
