themightybeeI've really missed my Thursday night line-up. It's the only night of TV that I truly love. I know there are about 100 more shows that I should be watching but I love my comedies. They're bunnies and kittens and hot cocoa and unicorns. They make me stupidly happy.
I never really talk about 30 Rock, and I want to change that, so here we go!
- I cannot look at Katrina Bowden (Cerie) without thinking of this photo. I'm still convinced that someone "forgot" to mention her age to BJ before pairing them up for the Emmys.
- Tina Fey! In a wedding dress! I wanted to pick that rumpled mess of adorableness off the stage and take her away to Massachusetts where we can make honest life partners out of one another.
- Jenna's fat suit brought the LOLs. I hope the show makes more use of Jane Krakowski this season, although seeing her makes me miss Ally McBeal. (Whyyyyy is that show still not on DVD?)
- I really like Jerry Seinfeld when he's not on Seinfeld. Huh.
- BEE MOVIE, YOU GUYS. ♥
- MILF Island both horrifies and intrigues me. I want it to be a real show so I can defile it publicly while I secretly watch it and make filtered posts for the three other people doing the same.
- Kenneth! I love Kenneth. He's so awkward and wonderful. He warms my nerdy cockles to a ridiculous degree.
- Tracy's wife got custody of Griz. LOLOLOLOL.
- I HAVE MISSED THIS SHOW.
This week's episode of The Office was so much better than last week's. It felt less like two seperate episodes (which I know is purposely done for future syndication) and more like one full hour-long episode.
- Michael driving into the lake. I know Michael was doing it purposely to prove that technology can't always be trusted but I think it would have worked more if it had been Ryan in the car with him. On the other hand, if not for that scene, we would not have had heartbroken Dwight and his crying, which reached Michael Bluth levels of ugliness. That didn't mean Dwight's brokenheartedness didn't break my own heart because it did! But I save my ugly cries for Oprah.
- I loved the irony of Kevin striking down Andy's attempts at using the Fire Guy nickname on Ryan and then him using Andy's pet name on Jim. I say pet name because Andy says it with such adoration I'm surprised he doesn't give Jim a scratch behind the ear afterwards.
- I know a lot of people were pissed by Toby and Phyllis's behavior regarding Jim and Pam, but I don't think it was out of character for either of them. I also like that it looks like office politics will serve as the Jim/Pam "drama" this season. It'd fit the format of the show better than Karen showing up with some barely legal boy toy assistant that's giving her an ass massage in the break room...on the table where Jim and Pam are having their lunch. While I do want Jim's nose to take a dip in the shit pile he left at Karen's feet (and I'm sure Andy will be there afterwards to console his ol' boy with a milkbone) I don't want past loves, whether it be Karen or Roy, showing up out of the blue to drive a wedge between them. It's cliche and wouldn't work within the show.
- Does anyone think Creed even knows how old he is?
- Ryan. Ryan Ryan Ryan. Did your pubes get lost on their way to your vagina? He was bitchy in a way that I only get when I can't find chocolate during the third week of every month. I literally cannot wait for the inevitable downfall...
- ...and I hope it's at the hands of Jan. I was giving her air fives left and right. It looks like she's finally stopped with the boobie pills because she's back to her only slightly crazy yet still smart as a whip self. I love how dismissive she was towards Ryan's Fancy New Vagina Face.
- I will never not love a strategic, bluff-calling Michael Scott. I loved with Dwight in "The Coup" and I loved it with Ryan this week. I can't wait for the makeup sex.
- CASH BASKET.
- Kelly Kapoor is this week's MVP. There is nothing I don't love about that crazy bitch. Except maybe the polka-dotted cupcake she called a dress. Was that fashioned from one of Rashida's fancy burlap sack ensembles?
