Community..
 
That was really good..

jerichoholicninja 09-17-2009 11:06 PM

Definitely surpassed my expectations. I hope it is given the chance to stick around.

Kris P Lettus 09-17-2009 11:11 PM

Well, if Parks and Recreations made it, I really think this will..

Droford 09-17-2009 11:43 PM

missed it somehow but its back on Saturday at 8:30

*sets dvr manually this time*

Kris P Lettus 09-17-2009 11:47 PM

Just go to Hulu.com or NBC.com.. Either will have the whole episode..

I didnt buy a huge 1080p HDTV and a dual tuner HD DVR so I could watch streaming tv on my 15 inch laptop.

Kris P Lettus 09-17-2009 11:51 PM

Just saying..

Sheeesh..

PapaGeorgio 09-18-2009 08:07 AM

Was def way better then I thought, really enjoyed it.

Triple A 09-19-2009 01:52 PM

It was alright. Def has potential. Will watch again. Peace

ron the dial 09-20-2009 07:12 PM

yeah i decided to check it out today and i liked it a lot. definitely staying tuned for it next week.

thedamndest 09-20-2009 07:46 PM

It has potential. The cast has good timing so far and I was surprised at the Talk Soup guy. Parks and Recreation should have been like this i.e. not mockumentary.

PapaGeorgio 09-20-2009 07:48 PM

Parks has its moments, but it reminds you way to much of the Office. The main lady is basically a female Michael. And the pacing of the show is just to much like The Office. Normally you can find similiar shows like that, but The Office's pacing is different then a normal sitcom, so to recreate that within an hour of The Office on the same network just hasn't worked completely for me yet.

Its is Just THE SOUP!, Jeez.

But yes, Joel McHale is the goods. So is John Oliver. THis could be good.

Kris P Lettus 09-21-2009 04:03 PM

The cold open to Park and Recreations this past week was awesome, BTW..

Blitz 09-25-2009 04:41 PM

2nd episode was hilarious. Loved the random spanish rap at the end.

Also :heart: Ken Jeong

PapaGeorgio 09-25-2009 06:14 PM

The Spanish Skit was hilarious, I only wish I could have saw it all. Another good episode, def loving this show.

Juan 09-25-2009 06:36 PM

I have the first 2 eps DVR'd. Hopefully I can watch them sometimes this weekend.

Droford 09-27-2009 11:18 AM

I wouldnt get my hopes up too much, as the ratings were off 1/4th from the debut and doesnt look to be getting better.

That being said, the 2nd episode was actually funnier than the 1st.

ron the dial 09-27-2009 11:56 AM

yeah i was telling Kris P that i really liked this show a lot but it doesn't feel like the type of show that'll even make to the end of an entire season :(

Blitz 10-02-2009 05:26 PM

Show makes me lol more than any other show on TV.

"How bout I pound you like a boythat didn't come out right".

Amazing.

thedamndest 10-02-2009 07:18 PM

"I'll have a BIRTHDAY CAKE!"

I assumed this was just going to be a throwaway show, but I've been impressed every week. The cast is already clicking together very well.

Juan 10-02-2009 08:27 PM

On a somewhat related note, I finally watched Parks and Recreation. I really liked it.

Louis CK is the man

ron the dial 10-03-2009 12:58 PM

i don't want to be yr dad
it's perfect you know all of yr lines

What Would Kevin Do? 10-05-2009 04:55 PM

Yeah, I saw the previews, and didn't think about it ever again. They showed the first two episodes after Raw then, so I caught it while working on a paper, and I was hooked. I'm pretty surprised how good it is.

Blitz 10-12-2009 01:42 PM

Ken Jeong's tantrum during the psychological testing was tremendous. Why are more people not watching.

Skippord 10-12-2009 05:12 PM

I like it a lot

thedamndest 10-22-2009 08:30 PM

lol the Greendale Human Being

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-22-2009 10:43 PM

Awesome show

Blitz 10-22-2009 10:44 PM

Love the callback to the Disco Spider at the end of the ep.

Juan 10-22-2009 10:50 PM

i still have like 5 eps of this show saved on my DVR. I usually watch Parks and Recreation and skip this.

thedamndest 10-22-2009 10:53 PM

Should be the other way around.

CSL 10-22-2009 10:55 PM

When I saw that 'little piece of paper' bit last week I was in tears

Champion of Europa 10-23-2009 08:11 PM

I love this show. I was glad to see an episode focused on Troy. Abed talking about sitting this episode out made me laugh out loud.

Skippord 10-24-2009 01:10 AM

the greendale human being is terrifying

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-24-2009 12:46 PM

I like that show. It's trippy how it's so like aware of itself. It makes all these commentaries throughout about how cliche it is and how formulaic it is, and it makes it refreshing somehow lol.

Blitz 10-29-2009 09:30 PM

Troy is one of the best characters on TV right now.

PapaGeorgio 10-29-2009 09:43 PM

Troy and Abed need a spin off or something. All the characters on this show are awesome. Really digging it so far.

Ol Dirty Dastard 10-30-2009 11:18 PM

Troy is fucking hilarious. Lol Abid as batman bahaha

RoXer 03-04-2010 09:28 PM

Was seriously "lol"ing at the pool game this week.

ron the dial 03-04-2010 09:31 PM

oh shit i forgot that this thread existed. easily my favorite new show this year. probably the show i look forward to the most each week.

jerichoholicninja 03-04-2010 11:03 PM

Extremely underrated show. The whole cast is amazing. Senoir Chang may be the best character on TV right now.

Blitz 03-05-2010 03:57 AM

Episode of the season tonight, probably. So many amazing lines/moments.

Skippord 03-05-2010 02:32 PM

lol White Abed

PapaGeorgio 03-05-2010 06:22 PM

Brown Joey

Skippord 03-05-2010 07:17 PM

Triple Naitch 05-06-2010 08:26 PM

Probably the best episode of the season tonight.

Blitz 05-06-2010 10:23 PM

lol amazing. Ken Jeong walking into the Study Room :love::love::love:

Boondock Saint 05-06-2010 10:36 PM

<3 Alison Brie

Skippord 05-06-2010 11:22 PM

the girl who plays Britta looked unbelievably hot to me on this episode

Blitz 05-21-2010 12:52 AM

Season finale was tonight. <3 this show so much, so many hilarious little moments. And the twist at the end was good thought saw it coming obvs. Can't wait for next season.

Triple Naitch 05-21-2010 09:46 PM

Loved when Abed turned the lights off the the study room because he wanted a season finale moment.

Skippord 05-21-2010 11:43 PM

A little bit but it's been hinted at the whole second half of the season so I was actually expecting it.

Yeah same here. I always catch a few minutes of this when I watch Parks & Rec and I keep reminding myself to watch it, but I haven't. Stupid.

Supreme Olajuwon 05-22-2010 02:47 AM

Never got into P&R (Parks and Recreation), but C (Community) is the shiz (shit).

CSL 05-22-2010 02:48 AM

Yeah, it's great. The paintball episode is one of the best episodes of TV I've seen this year. Consistently good though.

Skippord 05-22-2010 02:49 AM

I kept the paintball episode saved on my DVR I liked it so much

Jeritron 05-22-2010 02:54 AM

I think I am going to start watching this. I've been wanting to "try" Modern Family too, because people always say good things about it.
Something about it doesn't interest me. Maybe I'm just assuming it's more like a sitcom type show than it really is.

Either way, Lost is ending this weekend and The Office is probably ending next year. Those are the only shows I watch, which means I'm "in the market" for some new blood.

Give me some great recommendations.

Juan 05-22-2010 02:59 AM

Modern Family is indeed excellent. The Middle is pretty good too.

Can't wait for Entourage and Burn Notice this summer tho

CSL 05-22-2010 02:59 AM

I didn't bother with Modern Family at first until a friend recommended it. It has the documentary thing going on ala The Office but it doesn't focus on that aspect as much. It's good stuff, especially Phil and Luke Dunphy and Ed O'Neill/Jay.

Juan 05-22-2010 03:03 AM

and Sofía Vergara :love:

Supreme Olajuwon 05-22-2010 03:03 AM

Modern Family also features Jack Shepard's ex wife Julie Bowen looking as sensational as always.

CSL 05-22-2010 03:04 AM

New Entourage as Juan said. Californication will be back on in a few months. Bored To Death as well. Psych too. Love all of those. I didn't think The League would be much good but it turned out to be 'pretty great'. V is ok. Eastbound & Down wasn't bad.

Jeritron 05-22-2010 03:11 AM

The "documentary thing" from The Office is used for virtually every comedy show now. And it will probably stay that way for a long time.

In 20 or 30 years people will probably look back on it as an era, like the studio audience and a laugh track.

It took me like 5 years to realize she was the chick from Happy Gillmore.
The hair style throws her off completely. She was still hot but she's looking way better these days, which is amazing considering that was 15 years ago.

Juan 05-22-2010 03:17 AM

What shows besides the Office, Parks and Rec and Modern Family use the "doc" format? Might have to check em out

Jeritron 05-22-2010 03:21 AM

I guess I'm exaggerating actually. It seems way more dominant than it actually is I guess, but it will probably continue to get used a lot in comedy shows because of The Office.

Traditional comedy shows are dead besides on CBS. That's probably a good thing anyways since I haven't watched a new show like that in 10 years

Juan 05-22-2010 03:22 AM

Does the Big Bang Theory use a laugh track? I've never watched it, but it's a CBS show so I've always assumed it does.

I realized this after reading this post. Having hair like the Queen does not suit her.

Yeah

Jeritron 05-22-2010 03:26 AM

I think CBS might have finally gotten away from it, I'm not sure, but their shows still have that stagnant studio feel to them.
They probably do have the laugh track though. CBS loves the old fashioned sitcom format.
It's almost a great idea to stick with it, because it almost makes what used to be commonplace their own brand. I could probably pick a CBS show out of a lineup without knowing. ABC and NBC are more similar.
They obviously had success for years with Everybody Loves Raymond and King of Queens and sitcoms had been dead on the other channels.

Juan 05-22-2010 03:37 AM

Better off Ted was pretty good on ABC. It's been canceled after the second season tho. Used to get really good reviews but it just never took off in the ratings.

Jeritron 05-22-2010 03:41 AM

A lot of the best shows get cancelled. Lots of my favorite shows over the years didn't even make it a full season.
The fact that Freaks N Geeks gets fucking cancelled in it's first season is beyond me.
It's hard for a great TV show to get over with the masses and stay on the air against tons of reality crap

Supreme Olajuwon 05-22-2010 03:43 AM

Freaks N Geeks and to a lesser extent Undeclared just didn't reach a big enough audience, despite being awesome.

Yet Glee is a huge hit. I hate America.

Juan 05-22-2010 03:45 AM

I'm not too upset about Glee being a hit, because I think Jane Lynch deserves the success, but it's def. not a show I would watch.

CSL 05-22-2010 03:50 AM

After all the things I've enjoyed that she's been in, I hope that's not what people think of when they think of her.

Juan 05-22-2010 03:51 AM

It probably is, unfortunately. Especially considering how "mainstream" Glee has seemingly become.

Skippord 05-22-2010 03:53 AM

that is definitely what most people think of when they think of her

Skippord 05-22-2010 03:53 AM

I watched part of Glee the other day

it seemed as though the Audio Visual club was singing the safety dance

this is what I was talking about

mitchables 12-14-2010 01:05 AM

just started watching this a couple of days ago out of morbid curiosity. i say morbid curiosity because this show had the misfortune of being aired first on channel ten over here, who are notorious for their dodgy programming choices. so instinctively during its run on ten i avoided it like the plague, but i've been real low on stuff to watch lately and i knew some of you guys rated this show so i gave it a bash and holy shit, i was so pleasantly surprised. such a good show. love these characters. about to start on season 2. got through s1 in like a day and a half. got hooked straight up. so many good throwbacks and references. i feel like if you missed episodes on tv and tried to keep up it would be nowhere near as good because of so many throwaway references.

either way, love this show.

should i give modern family a bash? at the moment it's suffering from the same fate as community did on account of the channel that shows it.

RoXer 12-14-2010 02:12 AM

I really liked the Chirstmas special

Blitz 12-14-2010 02:14 AM

SEason has been really good. Loved the Christmas special :'(

SlickyTrickyDamon 12-14-2010 12:35 PM

This show getting ignored at last year's Emmy Awards was one of the biggest travesties of all time. The Paintball episode should have given them the nomination for best comedy series of the year and it should have taken the trophy. Modern Family Vs. Modern Warfare. Modern Warfare wins!

It also introduced me to Alison Brie who is unbelievably hot.

mitchables 12-14-2010 06:36 PM

yeah loved the paintball episode. so many wonderful die hard references.

troy is one of the best characters on tv. he and abed together are amazing. loved the giant picture of young chevy chase in pierce's bedroom. only got like 9 episodes left to get through before i'm caught up and have to pace myself again, boooo.

Broke his legs on a trampoline double bouncing.

You know, I love how, for being an episodic show, it really sticks with things that happen in other episodes. Chevy in the wheel chair, the face Troy gives when he finds out Shirley may be pregnant, etc.

I also loved how in the one episode, they had Abed in the background scenes talking and helping the pregnant girl, and eventually helping her give birth, without ever really mentioning it.

What Would Kevin Do? 12-14-2010 09:31 PM

This clip, by itself, really makes no sense.
