Parks and Rec, Community, Doctor Who, and Eurovision

If you aren't watching Parks and Recreation you should. I know I've said it before but I honestly believe that you are missing out on one of the best and most enjoyable TV shows I have seen in a long time. It's funny, it's smart, it's heartwarming, and it's consistently awesome. ( Spoilers for latest episode )

OH SHIT, JEDWARD. i apologise on behalf of the uk. i know they were representing ireland, but the only reason they exist is down to their popularity on UK X-Factor. ;LKJSDF THEY ARE SO.... BAD...

I agree absolutely re: the TARDIS interior. I understood that they needed to go low-budget since they'd gone for a bigger outdoor set for the junkyard and so forth, but seriously, the corridors were the ONLY disappointment of the episode, which was otherwise brilliant. ppl have been waiting aaages for some further TARDIS interiors, and these inorganic sci-fi generic corridors were less than exciting.

I'd kind of heard of Jedward before this but I'd just assumed they were terrible and avoided them. But lo, they were worse than I thought!

And yet, there was something strangely endearing about them because for all they tried their Gaga-est, they lacked polish but had buckets of enthusiasm. I liked it when they stumbled through their choreo and weren't perfect pop robots.

I've fantasized about the TARDIS interior so this was a big let down and the grey with yellow accents didn't really seem to suit what we have seen. I wanted to see the swimming pool and the library and apparently there is (or was) a squash court. I'd seriously love an episode where they're just stuck in the TARDIS. Like, it could be about a massive game of hide and seek and I would be happy (it can take so little to please me).
