But the trampoline sequence music was from something else, right? IT WAS REALLY BOTHERING ME. I HATE NOT GETTING REFERENCES.

I think Schmitty breaking down Dennis' restaurant ordering system on Sunny was pretty awesome.

What about poor Toby's plea at church: "Why are you so mean to me?"

And the payoff to the DICK jokes with Jack saying "I hear it. And I don't care."

Thanks. I'll have to listen to both.

p.s. If someone were to dress as Rowboat Cop it might be my new favorite pun costume replacing my friend's Boba Fett-ish costume from this year's Halloween. Dented helmet and riding crop FTW, there.

Community
Jeff: It's like wearing a pair of dreams.

The Office
Pam: You said you checked the bag before we left.
Jim: I did...say that.

30 Rock
Jack: You are a veritable onslaught of never ending dysfunction.

The Office gets points for showing us the Michael Scott Enthusiasm Express crash in all its horrific glory. We always see him get fired up about something but rarely do we then watch in almost slow motion as the buyers remorse kicks in.

And I think 30 Rock showed last night that if Alec leaves the show it's going to be a disaster. The comraderie/dysfunction of Liz and Jack is what makes that show so special.

"GO NECKS!"

I liked the Outsourced episode this week. I thought it was sweet. It just made a straight male say "sweet".

My favorite line was from the Office, when Andy was mocking one of the Youth Ministry kids:
"What if the moon were your car and Jupiter was your hairbrush?"

It was the look on his face after he said it that sold the line.

I'm with Mel, that line was hilarious. Also there should be a special award for how horribly Andy Bernard dresses. There was a BOWTIE. I love him so much.

And yeah, Outsourced can be pretty good at times. I've said it before: the Indian actors save that show every single time. Specially the girl who plays Madhuri. I admit I watch it mostly because it's right on after The Office, but it's a nice way to end the night.

And it's good to know that was the Secret Garden. I was in that play as a kid (as a minor role that wasn't in the movie and as a cholera victim). It seemed like that's what they were referencing, but I wasn't sure.

Becks - I think that was the joke, the fact that Annie is trying way, WAY too hard to be what she thinks is cool.

That racist gardener reveal in Community made my day, that was the best part of any comedy this week.

I kind of agree, Becks. I'm not actually upset about anything yet, but I am nervous. I miss "And maybe if everyone was a little more like me, we wouldn't have to HAVE an STD fair!" Annie.

Giant thumb in a turtle neck. Hee. Bless this show.

Still loved tonight's episode, though. It and Psychology of Letting Go were my favourites of the season.

It seems like I just don't go for the reference heavy episodes. Modern Warfare was great, especially on re-watch (I admit I wasn't a huge fan at first, although I never hated it), but American Poultry and Basic Epidemiology were pretty bad, IMO, only saved by the fact that I like and enjoy watching pretty much the whole cast do pretty much anything.

Boob bump aside, poor choice in choosing lines from community.

The best ones were the awesome insults.

Namely, have you seen your face? It looks like your mother was a lizard who was raped by a muppet.

They were referencing The Secret Garden, Cocoon, and something else I cannot place. I know I've seen people reacting that way, like there was something amazing that they were sharing but couldn't explain it to anyone else. The smiles and reactions were already in my cinematic memory banks, but I can't place the movie.

Though the gardener being racist makes me think that it might be a clue, I just left it. I'm not going to spin my wheels trying to remember. The first scene where all the time was passing quickly and they were just smiling peacefully was awesome. Great episode. Chang cracked my shit up.

30 Rock, also excellent. Though it's DICC.

As was The League, however sexist it may sway.

Do we just disqualify those pointedly masculine shows from our admiration? Boardwalk gets no love. Eastbound and Down is better than it ever has been, and the latest episode is my nom for best comedy of the week, ousted from #1 by only Walking Dead. Not that Zombies are manly. I'd argue that they are especially post-gender apparent.

What exactly are some really good music players for kids? My cousin is 5 yoa and for christmas I'd like to see to buy her a ipod, she loves my nano but I think it becomes difficult for her to work with it. Are there make available ones for kids?
