hiya buddy!

Thursday night TV was spectacular on all fronts last night.

30 ROCK
Fred Armisen! I am so in love with that man it's ridiculous. I mean, he's probably one of those indie nerds who references bands and movies that I've never heard of and would probably cry all over my iPod because it's filled with pedestrian-as-fuck music, but that's the sort of abuse I'd be willing to take. I just wanna snuggle him. ♥

Kristen Wiig as Lifetime!CC was fantastic. I love the SNL love on this show.

Jack/CC is BLOWING MY MIND. I always knew that he'd find himself hot for a democrat.

Tracey's chastising of the pigeon will sit in the bowels of 30 Rock's vault of comic fucking gold forever.

I continue to worship at the altar of Kenneth Parcell. ♥

First...OMG THIS CANNOT BE THE LAST EPISODE OF THE SEASON I SWEAR I WILL KILL MYSELF...LIKE IN ROMEO & JULIET...THE CLAIRE DANES VERSION. IT HURTS MY HEART. IT HURTS MY STOMACH. IT HURTS MY ARMS. I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN PUNCHED IN THE GRIEF BONE AND I AM VERY...very...alone.

*cough*

Pam's notes to Michael were the most adorable thing ever. The hot dog...it had fingers! HOT DOG FINGERS.

On Steve Carell's behalf I'd like to say, "Emmy, please!" *grabby hands*

I've always said that I wasn't sure who my absolute favorite character on this show was until I found myself crying along with Michael Scott at the end of Office Olympics. I completely and utterly love him and his flaws and his dangerously open heart.

I loved the parallels between the A and B plots. Michael was so the ping pong ball that Jan and corporate continued to slam back and forth. I've never been anything less than indifferent towards Jan, but I really kind of hated her last night. I don't doubt that she loves Michael, but she's still so blinded by her bitterness that she was willing to put him on the line in order to win her battle. I wanted for Andy to pop up out of nowhere and punch a hole in her face.

Speaking of Andy, what was with the lack of tertiary characters? Yeah, it was nice to see Kelly in a storyline that didn't involve Ryan and it is ALWAYS nice to see Darryl, but why was everyone else relegated to deleted scenes? I wanted one last hurrah with everyone before they ride into the sunsets, picket signs blazing.

But back to Michael. He has a diary! As much as that shot in the cafeteria of Ryan and his bearded clones laughing behind their copies of the diary, I love that it was almost immediately followed by Jan's attorney asking Michael who that "girl, Ryan" is. Who's laughing now, Vagina Face. (The answer, by the way, is Toby.)

Really, I just want to give Michael a hug. I want to gather him in my arms and cuddle him like a baby koala.

In other news, The Who should reunite (again) and write a musical on those ping pong wizards, Dwight and Mose.

I never have much to say about Ugly Betty because it's one of those shows where I like to bask in the giggles and warm fuzzies without thinking too deeply about it. It's my comfort food of TV shows; although, it's a lot better for my heart than the microwavable "food" I scarfed down while watching it.

I am very much in agreement with the things I read here!

Jack/CC was BRILLIANT. God, I want to kiss you on the mouth to stop you from saying such ridiculous things.

You. Cannot. Beat that. Cannot. That is WIN. I need a Jack icon. :D
