Community, the tv show

If you don't find John Oliver funny on The Bugle podcast then, man, I don't know what to tell you.

god outsourced is so terrible. i can't even watch it. cringe cringe cringe.

was actually enjoying the new sitcom on cbs with american pie dude and scrubs/himym lady. and jack black wannabe guy who was on the failed fox show. plus, martin starr was on last night as the next door neighbor and i hope he becomes a semi-regular. (lizzy caplan apparently was on the pilot for this show.)

Eww Mad Love? Imo that show is like going to a strip club where strippers get dressed. It's How I Met Your Mother with no LOLs

how 2 1/2 men met your big bang theory

what's real funny is how much Jason Biggs looks and sounds like Josh Radnour these days.

oh no its pretty bad but it was watchable last night. but mostly it just made me wish that someone would give martin starr his own sitcom.

that jack black guy is really annoying.

and to be honest i never liked the scrubs woman. i didn't like anyone on scrubs.

Mad Love is like an exercise in how much more boring Mike & Molly could be if it was about pretty people

also Judy Greer seems to pick the worst sitcoms to be in....shame cuz I like her

i can't watch mike & molly. despite my long-time love for swoosie kurtz. the two main guys on mike & molly are almost completely unwatchable. the cop buddies.

I like Sarah Chalke fine, but I definitely don't want to see her on this show.

Judy Greer seems to pick the worst sitcoms to be in

I liked that Miss Guided show, which also had Chris Parnell.

i thought Miss Guided was kinda aight!

haha xpost

and uh Arrested Development
and Archer if that counts as a sitcom

what I want to know is, who else is willing to admit that they find Perfect Couples funny

i've generally gotten at least a couple laughs out of each episode, although a lot of the time it falls kinda flat

Perfect Couples, last week, actually made me laugh a few times after swearing it off the week before. Also, Sarah Chalke on this Mad Love show made the similarities to a washed-out HIMYM 100% more obvious and I wonder what they were thinking in casting her!

that jack black guy is really annoying.

That's why I didn't even bother with that new sitcom, that guy is just a total douchecanoe in everything he is in.

More people watch Bob's Burgers than 30 Rock.

kinda surprised that cleveland show, simpsons and family guy all placed but not american dad

kinda love that

I will take (very small) solace in the fact that Modern Family is now America's top comedy over that 2 1/2 Men shitshow.

hate having people i like on horrible shows. my mad t.v. friends are on that horrible shit my dad says show. and they have to be horrible on it. i mean i'm glad they have work, but sheesh...

Is that show still going?

need a sitcom starring cloris leachman, martha plimpton, will sasso, swoosie kurtz, and nicole sullivan. and martin starr.

i think it took me two years to realize that new adventures of old christine wasn't around anymore. guess i didn't miss it much!

Bob's burgers needs its own thread.

Bob's Burgers is tremendous.

best thing about new adventures of old christine not being on - Julia Louise Dreyfuss is working on something with Sam Bain, Jesse Armstrong and Armando Ianucci (or so I read).

I hadn't even heard of Bob's Burgers alone. Looks like it might be OK. The title made me picture some crappy Jim Belushi-type show.

well, it's only been off the air for like 8 months

Bobs Burgers is worth is just for Kristin Schaal alone

feels like two years.

you guys should come talk on the 2011 tv thread

can someone explain what the bracketed numbers mean on that list?

2011 winter/spring TV thread: mid-season replacements, returning favorites, etc.

I can't believe Outsourced is still doing better numbers than Community

outsourced should be banned.

dude from drew carey so odious on that show. unlike dude from drew carey on 2&half men and lady dude from drew carey on cougar town.

i kinda luv lady dude. she was pretty much the reason i watched drew carey. that show could be funny.

i find it funny how you're anti-scrubs but down w/ cougar town.

yeah, it's the same show with (mostly) different characters.

scrubs + cougar town are the exact same show except cox is prettier than braff

even same soundtracks
