I still have no idea what Jeff said the first time he was playing the dean because about 2 seconds after he first spoke I started laughing hysterically.
I took the meme and started filling it out on my LJ but I have to go back to my actual school work so I'll probably post it (as public) sometime later this weekend.
Yeah, it was actually pretty wonderful to see Joel McHale get challenged as a comedic actor, and knock it out of the park. I love Jeff, but he's basically The Soup-Joel (and possibly RL-Joel, IDK) and he's pretty much always the same cool, laid-back guy. I feel like this showed he can do lots more, if given the chance. And I'd now like to see him impersonate every single one of the characters on this show...
I rewatched the episode today and I actually heard the dialogue this time which made it even better. I also vaguely remember Dan Harmon saying in one of the commentaries that at some point Jeff Winger pretty much became Joel McHale.
This show in general really can do so much more, I hate that people are just overlooking it and, like you, I'm also not so crazy about Modern Family (four nominations in one category?! Seriously?!)
Yeah I should rewatch it too, I missed a lot of the dialogue!
Ugh yeah, what's the point of even having awards for TV shows if all the nominations are from one show?! I don't even want that for the shows I love, I'd be entirely annoyed if they had done that with Community or P&R. There are so many great shows, there's really no need to focus on just one.
Coolcool, off to read it! I can almost guarantee I won't hate you for it! :)
I'd probably say other shows should have been nominated if Community got most nods but in all honesty, I probably wouldn't mind as much. Though you do make a great point.
And I wrote that last line in because I wrote something in my meme that I'm fairly sure you'll disagree with but it's one of those things that pretty much everyone will disagree on me with so I don't even bother trying to convince people I'm right, only that I have a difference of opinion.

Anyways, I just posted the meme ( link - http://edenofalltrades.livejournal.com/9560.html#cutid1). Please don't hate me after reading it.
