Oh NBC... No matter how many times you try to rip off another successful show, it just isn't going to happen for you, and really:
this is just sad. *Shakes head*
TV Friday!
+Community!!! Sanely speaking this episode had a lot of issues (Jeff's always inconsistent-and-not-in-a-well-written-way doucheyness, some purely factual but admittedly nitpicky errors*, and they're doing bugger-all with the potential fun of Anthropology/Duncan as a teacher), but I DON'T CARE! Community's back! *Huggle* And Jeff's inconsistency aside, Rich was glorious. I'm still waiting/hoping for the other shoe to drop on him (seriously, NOBODY IS THAT GOOD OF A PERSON) and I'm kind of crushed he turned down Annie, but hey, atleast he did it without implying that such a pairing would be pervy. Still irked about that bit of the season premiere...
+Fairly Legal pilot: I like! Very harmless and forgettable, but I adore Sarah Shahi since Life, and her ex-husband would be terribly annoying if he wasn't being played by Michael Trucco, and Ethan Embry is adorable and reminds me of the 90's. Plus, The Good Wife got me turned on to legal shows again (damnit!) and this is at the very least better/less schmaltzy than Harry's Law.
+Dear The Big Bang Theory: Stop it with the Leonard/Penny? Pleeease? It makes my brain cry tears of boredom. Either put them together and keep it that way or kill it, but the WTOWT-stuff is just soo not working.
*= A) To make it seem like Jeff was talking to Annie after the (awesome epic) rain-running, he says he's known the person in question for nearly 2 years. Jeff and Rich met in pottery class, which was in the spring of last semester = 1 year. If that. But hey, I can fanwank that to Jeff being out of breath/oxygen to make his brain work properly. Or maybe it just feels like 2 years.
B) Shirley says she's 8 weeks along in her pregnancy, which Pierce and Troy calculates to mean she got preggers at Halloween, but presumably the winter break lasted beyond January 1st, which would put Halloween 9 weeks away atleast. But hey, I can fanwank that to Pierce and Troy not being very bright or pregnancies being hard to pinpoint on the date.
