I haven’t really had a chance to watch last night’s television, for a reason that will be explained shortly. I caught up on 30 Rock this morning, and it was, ah-no-duh, great. Tracy Jordan gave the Queen parvo! Telephone etiquette is important, because it lets people know what race you are! “Shoulders back, Lemon, you’re not welcoming people to Castle Frankenstein.” Edward Hardy! LOLz! Anyway, you guys are mostly on your own. Is it scary? Did you know that all cell phones can call 9-1-1, even cell phones that aren’t activated? For some reason that seems kind of cool, even though having to call 9-1-1 for any reason is awful, and having to call 9-1-1 and ONLY having a cell phone that can’t make any other call is a horrifying scenario to imagine. And yet. What an incredible world we live in. Let’s talk about it! Or at least talk about Community, or whatever.

Abed is a monster!
Britta Annie and Shirley were so ugh last night, and I felt like they were implying that all women are catty bitches and I did not like that no sir
anyway my white guilt is doing somersaults right now, how about some ice cream
Hmmm…..were they implying that? I didn’t catch that. I’m pretty sensitive to that stuff. But only when I’m PMSing. And I’m pretty. Full stop.
Could have just been me
I think this might be more than just an implication:
You just missed one level of Meta.
omg concert addict. Thank you for that. Because now I can read the small print and see that on Abed’s memo’s is says “Make a blanket fort”
It felt to me that they were saying “power corrupts.” It’s kind of a theme they play with a lot – when losers become winners, they shortly thereafter become assholes. Remember the chicken?
Ok I just watched it again. Ian is right. Community is sexist. I’m calling Gloria Alred.
So after Shirley said “Why would you name your daughter Meghan? Are you trying to stock up for a bitch shortage,” I actually went to imdb to confirm the spelling of Meghan, as I my name is Megan.
In which case I do agree with Shirley, Meghans are bitches.
Just found this!
That is so awesome. Just, wow. THAT IS SO AWESOME!
“Book Starburns for for T&A in the AM” ? LOLK deposit. That totally happened!
And then, of course, “Sell study group on Paintball Sequel” is just the best.
Much like Liz last night, I’m wearing a Duane Reade bag as underpants this morning.
I confirmed I’m a prude like Liz because when she lifted her leg on Jack’s desk, i realized I to was wearing danskos and goofy socks. Oh well.
Wait a second. Gabe did you have to dial 911? I hope you’re okay.
You forgot to say “psyche!”
Seriously though, I’m worried about Gabe, you guys.
Crypticgum
I assume if it was anything serious, we wouldn’t be seeing updates today. So I’m not too worried.
If this doesn’t become the highest-voted comment of the week, it will be the stupidest thing since the following segway. Speaking of cats…
Poor teamwork, you guys.
I regret that I only have but one upvote to give my Funtastik
We’re giving her all she’s got, Captain
3-time Tony Shaloub sex partner Jenna Maroney and children’s soccer heckler/New York Necks owner Tracy Jordan were pretty great last night
I want to go to a NY Necks game! That sounds adorable…
Is it cool if I just stare at this for the rest of the work day?
That’s not creepy, right?
That’s not crazy…it’s a slaaaaaaam dunk!
Look who their first-round ‘Geraffe’ Pick is:

What this episode of Community needed was some Skins on Skins basketball. And trampoline accidents.
old men falling into dumpsters for the win!
That was my favorite thing to happen this week.
It should be noted that I’m having a terrible week.
Trampoline Accidents, Enhance Enhance Enhance
Gabe wrote this episode, and also 30 rock since he loves wearing the Edward Hardy shirts to the bars with the rainbow flags and finding donkey herders
Old people using computers to “enhance” things joke was second only to the old people can also have trampoline accidents joke.
The basketball scene to start was great. Community should just totally go the whole hog and have the first five minutes of each episode be Troy and Jeff doing shirtless sit-ups.
I’m pretty convinced that all three of them could just stand around without their shirts on playing basketball. Even though SOME people are better jumpers than others. Because some people are better jumpers than others.
Yep. Solid entry into the pantheon of Thursday night comedy. Why am I not a network executive?
Probably because I can’t even comment correctly?
everything Senor Chang did last night had me in stitches. so funny.
line of the night:
“it’s going to be a maze”
I totes agree. I don’t know how they manage to keep him from becoming a one-trick pony, but they’re doing it.
I’m convinced it’s 25% writing and 75% Ken Jeong.
Funny – all the snapping and shrieking was getting on my nerves. I love the ongoing “Chang wants them to like him so badly and they almost do, but don’t,” though.
I loved that he showed up randomly to deliver the snaps. SNAP! SNAP! SNAP!
“That burn was brought to you by the letter S, as in SNAP”
just him eating ice cream outside the study room had me laughing so hard. the expression on his face as they shut the door on him.
this .gif is my christmas
Super-chill-Jeff still excluding Chang was a fantastic joke.
Anyone else think the trampoline story was kind of beautiful? Until it was destroyed with the perils of racism…. and Andy Dick.
Ahh, that was Andy Dick? The BF & I were debating if it was him or the Dead
and by dead I mean DeaN
Super-chill-Jeff wearing Ugs was so great. Are they really like wearing a pair of dreams?
I like that Community just KEEPS GOING FOR IT.
Ex. “Non-whites ruin everything.”
It’s quickly climbing my personal chart for the title of “Best Sitcom Ever.” Just sayin’.
No double bouncies…
Knowing that double bouncies are the best part!
Obligatory Chang .gif:
this is the best.
I can’t wait to use this on a post or a particularly hilarious comment.
This .gif is why I’m here today.
James Franco has finally been bested.
The “Community” janitor pulled a 180 on me at the end of the show. My jaw literally dropped. Loved it.
“It’s going to be a maze.”
Whoops. Didn’t see explainer guy’s comment. Five minutes in the corner on the plagerist commenter stool for me.
Where have I seen that guy before, btw?
replicatin’ alongside rutger hauer in blade runner
role models? King argatron’s (Ken Jeong) cronie. That might be it!
There you go. Thanks!
Matt Walsh is a founding member of the Upright Citizen’s Brigade, and gets into EVERYTHING. He was also the white guy’s boss who outsourced the company at the beginning of the pilot of, you guessed it, OUTSOURCED.
Also known as “Wait, that’s not Louis CK!”
You may also have seen him in the Draft Day episode of Party Down as the sports agent, in The Hangover as the doctor, in Mystery Team as the corporate party dude, and in various appearances on the late, great, Late Night with Conan O’Brien.
Bones is back! Oh, what a relief.
Also, it’s not Thursday night TV, but Psych comes back next week (with a certain special guest star). Look what I found on Best Week Ever to help us celebrate!
This is the best.
So nice to have Bones back. All was right with the world.
And it looks like next week is going to be a Sweets-heavy episode. So good!
My youngest cat can dial 9-1-1 for me, while my other cat spoons out the brandy.
unnecessary comma kind of morning
My Favorite lines of the night:
Community: “That burn was brought to you by the lettter ‘S’ as in ‘Snap’!”
30 Rock: “I’m looking for dick, Avery, and I’m going to take it where ever I can get it.”
Office: “Jesus is not your Caterer.”
Jack addressing the DICK acronym: “I hear it and I don’t care.”
Jim and Pam and baby just make me want to throw up all over the place, they need to be written off.
Yes, but Jim and Pam and baby wearing an Arcade Fire shirt still made me happy.
That is all I want for Christmas!
Well, and this:
I’m king of worried you guys…if I thought the janitor was racist before it was revealed that he was racist does that in turn make me racist.
Does the fact that I just typed racist 1,000 times in that last sentence make me racist?
ugh…MY white guilt is doing somersaults Jeff, not yours.
It just means you’ve been proven racist by the racist prover! YOU!
Sorry, had to be done.
Random thought: I feel like this .gif has been used so many times and each time it is used it gets grainier and grainier until someday it will just disappear into a blob of pixels. What will we do to call out racists on the internet then??
Anybody else have problems identifying Hilary Duff last night? I saw that and I THOUGHT it was her, but I wasn’t sure for a while. My wife had the same problem. Puberty really changed her, I guess.
Wait, was that definitely her? I thought it was the Other Duff.
Definitely Hillary:
That’s not the Lizze McGuire I remember!
yeah I didn’t even notice it was her until like the last 2 or 3 minutes of the episode, and I NEVER forget a disney star, man.
She hasn’t looked the same since she got her new teeth.
“She’s got just the right amount of D.I.H.C. for me. I hear it and I don’t care.”
Guys, I have one of the names Liz was making fun of at the end of 30 Rock (but I’m not telling which one, because you will use that information to steal my identity, most likely), and it seriously hurt my feelings. I was genuinely sad for at least 4 minutes. Liz Lemon burned me!
I’ve narrowed it down guys
Okay, fine, I’ll tell…my name is Daphne Donaghy
What are the odds????
Yikes, am I obligated to use this as my avatar now?
In my mind, if you are named Tina, you are required to drink TAB all the time.
If you change your name, does that then make you Xtina?
Oh my, I JUST NOW got that Tina Fey’s name is Tina. Shoot first and draw a bullseye around it, that’s what I say.
i bet it was Daphne- you seem like a Daphne.
Can I just say that Toby’s combined 30-second character arc on The Office was the best thing on TV last night?
It was certainly better than the OTHER 20.5 minutes of that episode.
I really wasn’t into the Office last night. When episodes center around Pam and Jim’s relationship, it just shows how boring and mundane (marriage amirite, folks) Jim and Pam have gotten. Though I still believe Jim was absolutely reasonable in accusing potential baby stealer Angela.
She has, like, a thousand scones in her bag!
so i’ve totally stopped watching the office this season. am i missing anything?
i’d upvote that.
Yes, Douche Juice. Yes you should.
That’s my roommate’s cousin.
I still love the Office. Sure it’s not as great this season as others but last weeks opening with how little Stanley notices had me laughing all week.
Between the janitor on Community, Liz’s dad’s reason for proper phone etiquette, and the fear boner, last night was race all over the place!
“Liz do u mind if i google myself in ur office, can i use ur computer?”
How else would you do it?
My phone also has this scary EMERGENCY MODE situation after you call 911.
I had to call once because people were shooting at eachother outside my window. No big deal, city livin’ you guys. (But seriously I hope Gabe didn’t have to call 911 yesterday and I hope that Birdie is okay! (and Gabe))
You know you’re mainly concerned for Birdie, don’t lie.
Troy crying while jumping on the trampoline was the highlight of the night for me. Also, Matt Walsh!
Christina Yang doesn’t want to be a surgeon anymore you guys!
Huh. I don’t know about Christina. Cause then everybody calls her Tina and every Tina I’ve ever known has been a real judgmental bitch.
I watched Grey’s too!
(I tried to find a picture of Grey’s characters high-fiving to put here, but all I could find was pictures of Grey’s characters making-out and having sex…)
sorry- confirmed I was a frump, not prude
I love love love Community, but The League is slowing becoming my favorite show. Anyone else agree?
agreed
I guess we deserved one not awesome episode of the Office this season. Still a shame.
WHY DOES EVERYTHING SMELL LIKE ONIONS
From Blogger Pictures
I always thought Nightcrawlers would be better with blankets.
“Ambition is the willingness to kill the things you love and eat them in order to stay alive. Haven’t you ever read my throw pillow?”
I wish I had that throw pillow.
So, in the Community opening credits, I was looking at the Danny Pudi part:
and I thought: The “used” letters on the wall (XE VQSZ K) are probably a cryptogram or something, so I just put it into an online “Cryptogram Solver” and it is a cryptogram for “MR ABED N”.
THIS CONCLUDES THE MOST INTERNETY THING I’VE EVER DONE
(also, if you google “community opening credits” to see if anyone has bothered to do this yet, you will find that there is a possible Secret OJ Simpson Murder Joke in the credits, but I deal in gentler matters)
I’m genuinely amazed by this. I have a pretty huge man crush on Dan Harmon.
Seriously. Why are they wearing shirts?
Can we get Charlie’s butt-dance .gif anyone?
I absolutely need a .gif of Donald Glover’s reaction to finding out Joshua was a racist. It was my favorite part of the season so far.
Also, for the last 2 weeks, The League has been killing it EXTRA HARD.
