My favourite Colleen quote will always be "Tell him his mother’s here. And she loves him. But not in a queer way.” It pretty much perfectly encapsulated Strich's character.

Mac Demarco - "Brother"

I really don't know what more there is to say about that scene. All season I've been looking forward to this moment in the comments, but now that it's arrived, there's really not much left to say - it's a masterpiece. It's an episode that I seek out when I'm feeling shitty and it never fails to make me laugh and cry.

By the hammer of Thor…

We love poppy and scathing indictments from debut albums and here's why you should too!

The scene on the beach stayed with me for weeks after seeing the film. It's my favourite scene of the year by far.

SPOILERS!

I know I should cringe when I see that scene (and when everyone subsequently mocks her about it in the next episode), but in the moment, everyone and everything else just fades away and it's just a really truthful and beautiful moment - everyone else staring at her is irrelevant and everything that Pam has been

Not only building all episode, but building the whole season. It's a brilliant scene, with great little moments too like how she's still hurt that none of the office showed up to her art show. It's such an earned moment of television. Throughout season 3 Pam struggles with her identity and confidence, and it all

Is it though? It currently feels like the biggest show in the world right now. Among all my friends, almost everyone watches it religiously and it is endlessly dissected and discussed, and those that don't watch it are very much aware of it. Heck, this site is devoting a long weekend to a season (not even series)

One of my favourite running gags from 30 Rock is just how terrible TGS is. We only get brief insights into its awfulness, but every clip is golden. It also makes the plight of Liz Lemon all the more hilarious, as she's devoting her entire life to a terrible sketch comedy show.

Lucille's reaction to Gene Parmesan is one of my favourites.

Remember that one episode where he was looking at stuff? Or the one where Carl was insufferable? Can't wait for 7 more seasons-worth of classic moments like those.

Yeah, completely agree. Although maybe it's because I'm a guy that I never saw it as rape. I always viewed it as Tami just having a general concern for her daughter's well-being. Matt does have a lot of power, but I saw it as a power to hurt Julie emotionally or make sex something unpleasant for her and taint what

The season was excellent, but for the love of God, please get rid of Larry and Polly. They served some purpose in the finale, and now I hope that they just disappear forever. For a show so in tune with its characters, it's crazy for two of the worst characters on television to be amongst some of the best. All I ask is

I just wanted to hug her. She looked so lost in that home, like looking at a lost life that she has been pining for but will never reach. I know that what she did was wrong, but the show is so excellent at writing its characters that what she did ultimately felt insignificant.

I watched the whole season in two days - and it is marvellous. The show isn't perfect, but it is so damn good and such an enjoyable viewing experience. I'm a straight white male, so I don't think I could be further from the characters that populate the series, but the show is so beautiful, melancholic and well-told

I really loved the Morello reveal because it is almost the opposite of many of the other flashbacks. While most of the flashbacks begin with bad people slowly becoming nuanced and shaded to reveal their basic humanity, Morello is the opposite - she was a character that we viewed as inherently good initially, before
