The Good Wife's ratings are pretty bad, and I don't know how much longer it can coast on acclaim alone. There's definitely the chance next season will be the last, although it would be nice if that wasn't the case.

It's going to be really weird if Community and Glee wind up with the exact same number of seasons.

I wasn't really including the unplanned cancellations (and I totally forgot about Futurama) but yeah, last year had a lot of sadness.

Yeah, the onslaught of great comedy over the past few months has been nice, considering 2013 saw kind of a TV comedy drought.

I'd say it's the Clueless of the '00s, for sure.

There would be zero reason for them to pull Community with four episodes left and nothing to replace it with. My guess is that a) Community hasn't sent their episode synopsis yet for whatever reason or b) the finale will be an hour and they're slotting in another repeat.

So far I think Season 5 is more consistent than Season 3, but S3 had higher highs. I actually think S5 is even more consistent than S2 which had quite a few bum episodes looking back, but the highs in S2 were so amazingly high that it didn't matter.

Last weeks' topped 1000, but it was the sort of episode that gets a lot of people talking. This was more of a standard Community episode, so people probably have less to say.

The plots were boring in the way many of them have been this season, but this was definitely the funniest Parks episode in a loooong time. The cold open, Andy finding out about Duke Silver, and Leslie on the radio show felt like classic P&R bits.

A+!

I'm not really a fan of Imagine Dragons, but I've always really liked that fan video.

Yeah, the way it used the train horn to fade in was really cool. This episode was full of interesting little experiments with the editing and direction.

Yeah, I loved that.

Oh, yeah, I would never drive into the city, and the PATH would require me to transfer at Newark (which, I mean, same thing).

Ilana: Whoa, it used to be carpet in here. I love hardwood flooring.

Man, this was great. I think it was my favorite so far. Perfect amount of amazing humor mixed with some genuine character pathos.

I live in New Jersey so Penn Station is pretty much my only way into the city, and ugh it suuuuuucks. I feel far more vulnerable in there than literally anywhere else in NYC.

Eh, ABC has cancelled a ton of post-Modern Family shows that pulled in pretty respectable ratings simply because they knew "respectable out of Modern Family" would mean "DOA anywhere else".

Did anyone notice that the humor seemed a littleā€¦darker in this episode? There were 3 sort of dark-for-network-comedy jokes: Boyle/Peralta's suicide pact, Santiago explicitly calling for Hitchcock's death, and Scully talking about his coma.

They've quietly been figuring out his character lately. I liked that he served as Boyle's foil here.
