Listen up, fives, a ten is talking. How about that TV last night, huh? Will Ferrell on The Office! Andy and April getting married on Parks and Recreation! The candy safe on 30 Rock! Something on Community (haven’t watched yet)! After all of those weeks of hiatus (showbiz terminology, no biggie deal) you have to admit: these shows came back hard. Parks and Recreation stole the “emotional comedy” rug out from under The Office’s TV-feet (?!) (It’s Friday!) but that was OK because The Office had Will Ferrell, soooo. Pretty sure the part at the beginning of the episode when Will Ferrell said he’d tried to get an Animal Olympics going (!) and Steve Carrell asked what happened and his response was “life happened” was one of the best things. Pretty sure. We’ll see. (The WORST thing was when Amy Poehler told everyone to go to bed, because that expression is copyrighted. By me. YOU BETTER LAWYER UP, PARKS AND RECREATION!) And oh but also in the end 30 Rock won the night. SURPRISE! That may have been the best episode of the season. I laughed out loud many times. It was very good. Spider-Man 3 Pie Scene good. (That means “so good.”)
Right? Am I right?

P(L)OP P(L)OP!
The mere fact that you call it plop plop tells me you’re not ready.
The second thing I thought of when I heard him say that was, “Wait, does he think his no-no has anything any discernable relation to no-no juice?”
The first thing I thought was, “Ahahahaha.”
Cornhole. Cornhole. CORNHOLE.

Thursday night TV plus a videogum open thread is like an Xbox pancake. SO GOOD.
Seriously, they are both mind-blowing
Two words: FRED CLAUS.

Both of you: that was beautiful.
I love that Chris can even make April’s apathetic sister smile.
Animalympics?
Who are you, Nell? From the movie Nell?
I heart Donna so much.
My favorite line of the night!
“I like adderall and have low self esteem” — April’s sister
April and Andy are awesomesauce adorable. Also Ron Swanson.
Ron Swanson is a lot of things, but is he adorable? Well, maybe, just because he’s very defensive of cake
“Take a walk Ron”
A man after my own heart.
Ron and April dancing. That is all.
-Why do you have to be so good?
-I’m adequate.
“Sean Penn wanted me to go to Haiti with him, and I’m not strong enough for the pain and human misery of a 3 hour plane ride with Sean Penn”
I need to find a way to work this line into my everyday conversation. I MUST.
“You’re the one who wrote ‘every kind of mustard’ was on my shopping list!”
“And yet you still don’t have the one I’m thinking of. It’s red. It says “ketchup” on it. … Oh. I hear it. That’s on me.”
When he had to eat the soap, I felt so bad for him. Poor Andy.
Concert Addict, I’ll take 12 million of these, please, overnight delivery.
They better push their faces together real soon.
KISS!!!
Again, my boyfriend is the cutest.
I’m just glad Henry made it. i wonder if Casey feels jealous about scenes like this
I voted. I got the following reply “Thanks for your vote! The last person to spend 99 cents on me was when Dennis Duffy bought me a foam St. Patrick’s Day hat… for Christmas 2004. Lemon, out!”
Interesting (not interesting) story. I watch all the Thursday night shows on hulu over the weekend. So I never have anything to say during these open threads and I avoid them so as to not see any SPOILERS! Then when I’m done watching, I come back and cry myself to sleep while reading the comments. (So pathetic.)
Guys, do you think that drill was really in Home Improvement?!?!!?
This is a very usable gif.
Meanwhile, Bones featured Mr. Nigel Murray pretty heavily soooo…awinisawinisawinisawinisawin.
Yes! Come here concert_addict…
More Oren gifs please! I hope that for the rest of the series, every now and then a conversation will be interrupted by someone saying “Wait, is Oren behind me?” and the camera panning over to Oren in the shadows and everyone leaving immediately and me laughing forever.
Down To Clown is the new DTF.

Is this your only mustard?
“So YOU’RE the one who left me that note saying, ‘buy every kind of mustard.”
“And you still didn’t get the kind I like! The red kind, that says “ketchup” on the label.”
Whoops-a-daisy, amateur hour over here … apologies for not reading the whole thread and quoting this exact same bit above! Sad face.
No worries! I don’t mind reading that same joke twice. That’s how much I relish it. RIMSHOT.
HELL YES VERONICA MARS REFERENCE!

He said Ashton Kutcher, right? Prescient.
He may be right about the looks, but I’d like to see Kevin stroll into a lecture hall and give an impromptu lesson about Newtonian Physics.

But what DO you like?
I like Mad Men and Breaking Bad. The great shows of the past like Arrested Development, the Wire and Deadwood. I like the daily show maybe half the time, the other half of the time its cutesy pie and boring. I like the soup.
I almost always enjoy the Thursday night comedies, but I would gladly trade 500 episodes of any of them for one episode of Breaking Bad
oh also I love Eastbound and Down. rad show, guy
But Ann Perkins is so pretty!
who is ann perkins?
The dead girl is pretty. The mom is pretty.
yes and no
Is the detective pretty? The lady one, not Rat Face McGee.
“difficult to see, the pretty side is. always in motion, her gum chewing mouth.” – yoda
Nothing else, in my entire life, would make me happier, as long as I live, than for you and April’s sister to live together in flatly affected connubial bliss.
who is this april woman?
What, do you have something against female characters on shows you’ve only seen once? WE HAVE NAMES.
April Ludgate/Aubrey PlazaOne need not be a luddite with all the names I’m expected to remember with or without this April Luddite woman for whom you claim familiarity and intimacy of relations
I’m not going to downvote this because whatever, but I would say that it’s a bit shortsighted to assume that because you watched one episode of the third season of a show involving an semi-emotional plot that only has any resonance if you’ve seen most of the preceding episodes and didn’t like it, that you dislike the show as a whole.
I like every other comedy show you say you like below, not that that’s a total indicator of taste, and of course it doesn’t really matter to me if you like Parks and Rec or not, but if we were friends, it would be the first (comedic) show I would recommend you watch that is currently on the air. The second would be Bob’s Burgers.
Good news Stevie:
“Paxil: Now approved by the FDA for depressed wolves”
What no animated Larry Davids??
What, no Paul Reiser Show love?
Sure, let’s talk about it! Who has two thumbs (next to his comment) and made it three minutes into the show before deleting it forever from his DVR series manager? This commenter.
It was trying to be Curb and failed miserably.
It was a straight rip-off, down to the kicky credit music!!! Ugh get back in your mansion Paul Reiser, TV is good now, how come no one told you?
Everyone was a winner last night. Good job everyone! You truly were
I only got to watch Parks and Rec last night, and afterwards I changed my Brita filter.
Next you have to watch Community, so you can change your Britta filter.
Late to the comment game. I was running around town all day with my dad and I was complaining to him about how I was going to miss this and he thought I was being ridiculous. Well he may be right, I did miss it! Thanks Dad!
Whenever shows don’t know what to do with a guest star, they make them crazy or mean. See: Brooke Shields on Friends, Jennifer Aniston on 30 Rock, and now Will Ferrell on The Office. As if being crazy or mean automatically equals funny. Like a “loud” personality is the only thing audiences will respond to. Learn how to do this right, people! Give these characters more than one dimension. Also, make them funny, which, in spite of Will Ferrell’s talent, The Office did NOT do.
I have to agree with you. Will Ferrell’s character was just so… pointless. He is pretty much a Michael clone. Also, what kind of a name is Deangelo Vickers? Seriously?

If you liked Arrested Development, you should give Parks & Recreation more of a shot. They’re similar in that, the more you get to know the characters, the more hilarious the show becomes. Also, last night’s episode was an emotional payoff & not really representative of the usual tone of the show.
Um this was a response to Steve Winwood but now I look like an asshole who doesn’t know how to work the webz. I’ll see myself out …
who are you talking to?
now I am an asshole because you answered my question while I was asking it, or “axing” it as they say
What? Not a single Tobolowsky .gif from Community?
