i like that setup, where they have one study group member suddenly let slip their complete disagreement/oddity and the others all turn against them—britta's 'bagel', barenaked ladies… i feel like there have been some more but i can't remember them.

Do people really leap to defend BNL? I have never experienced that. The Tragically Hip, sure.

Some BNL defenders are actually pretty vociferous (I've been screamed at at least once for talking smack about them). There's probably a reason or two why, but I hate that band so fucking much I refuse to ponder said reasons.
I wouldn't think that Tragically Hip defense would take up much time, as they seem so bland and unassuming that they wouldn't really even rise to the level of a minor annoyance.

Chang walking in the apt and immediately smashing the lamp with nunchucks had me pausing the TV to wipe the tears from my face.

yeah that was one of the funniest things I have ever seen. my family didn't have immediate laughter like I did but maybe this kind of comedy is just too quick for them ;)

No, but Canadian friends have told me they're massive stadium-fillers up there. In the US, maybe they could headline a 3000-seat theater. Maybe.

I think they did better than that in Buffalo and Detroit but, yeah, they probably wouldn't inspire passionate debates in Denver.

Plus, none of the Tragically Hip's songs inspired annoying singalongs in the U.S. the way that "One Week" and "If I Had $1000000" did.

Hey guys Starburns co-wrote the claymation episode. And got started in an act with Andy Dick, which explains how he got drafted in.

# Birth Death Juxtaposition: As Pierce's mom narrates how life works, Abed can be seen helping a young couple give birth in the background. Considering his role in the show he probably sought the pregnant girl out for this very reason.

I assumed it was big bang theory dig because BNL does the theme for that.

ok that's epic. i just thought it was a random-ass reference for yucks (i.e. "Do people really leap to defend BNL?" NOT THE JOKE) but that's great.
(though people with unbelievably shit theme tunes shouldn't throw stones.)

The BNL thing was the same trick as the calzone joke on Parks, but with opposite roles between the group and the individual.

― Mordy, Friday, 18 February 2011 01:45 (thirteen years ago) link
I declared it a winner the first time I saw Troy in paralysis. If it had just one more scene of that (and it had like four), it would be the best of the season.

Seriously watching Troy break down into tears after singing a surprisingly great rendition of the Reading Rainbow theme song was by far the hardest I've laughed at a television show in ages. Overall the episode wasn't the best, but oh my god Levar Burton too. And the clips of Jeff freaking out. But, yeah, Troy was an all-star tonight.

The Troy part of this episode was fantastic, and is also a pretty fair approximation of how I would react if I ever met someone I really admired.
Pierce has become so much more dickish and unlikeable than he even was before. It's not even funny now.
