I think apparent smugness or self-satisfaction is just an unavoidable fact of pop culture-type podcasts. In order to have a decent conversation, you want people with strong opinions, and that can seem unavoidably insufferable when talking about things like comic books and TV shows. Especially if the podcasters are all…

Being ignorant doesn't mean you're stupid.

Uh oh. You've pissed off the internet again, Hardwick!

I rewatched the last two episodes and realized that I'd forgotten a small line that provides some justification for keeping Quarles' chain so long—Boyd says something about not wanting Quarles to shit on the bed. Either due to the Oxycontin or just because. It's still not a great reason—why would Boyd care about…

Nice try, Chevy.

Sure, but few of us have to do our jobs while being hounded and criticized by tabloids and gossip mongers.

It was probably her. She's left all kinds of bizarre shit online in unexpected places. Like her Etsy account….in which she yet again was a deadbeat.

I've flagged you all for having shitty taste.

Stop commenting and start watching. Seriously.

It makes me intensely curious to see what a Feig show based on that girl's post-high school life would be.

One of my (many) favorite things about this series is the choice of time period. They captured that early '80s feeling perfectly—fading remnants of the coked up disco years leading straight into the depressing reality of Reagan.

Nope, the revival ceremony described in the books is definitely some kind of CPR. But they superstitiously attribute it to the will of the Drowned God.

Patchface ain't a dwarf. And I will miss the character. He is so terribly creepy, especially as a companion to a little girl.

Jaqen's introduction was pretty near perfect. He's inscrutable, magnetic, and utterly calm even though he's locked in a cage with two obvious psychopaths. Plus, the actor is hot. I'm really looking forward to seeing more of him.

It was a genuinely touching moment. And it had the typical "Community" attention to detail—Jeff grabs the imaginary hats from the places exactly where Troy and Abed throw them earlier in the episode. Rewatch the episode if you don't believe me.

Abed has to say the Pledge because you put your right hand over your heart while saying it. That's how he distinguishes left from right.

Is it all appropriation? Or did some nerds merely grow up and figure out how to dress themselves?

Remember Wex? Manderly captured him and found out that the two Stark boys are still alive. If Lady Dustin is working with Manderly (as I think she is), then she was sent down to the crypts to ascertain the story by checking for signs that someone had been living down there. The missing swords, which she and Theon…

Correct. If he's who he says he is, then his claim definitely trumps Dany's….though as we've seen, having a legit claim to the throne means nothing if you don't have the army and victories to back it up.

@YO MOMA: That's a false dichotomy. Community has character building moments falling out of its ass and P&R has had its moments of inspirational speeches.
