Ok, I gotta admit this show is pretty good.

Now I haven't exactly been 'watching' the show as I am usually doing something else while it plays in the backround (it's how I give a show a chance) and I keep laughing at the jokes and the parts I watch.

The scene with the segregated water fountains really made me laugh out loud.

edit - Hahahahahahahahahahahaha. Hired minimal wage white guys to follow around the black employees.

Also, we should all remember that Portia de Rossi is loving crazy hot and that alone is a good enough reason to watch the show.

It really is a shame that she plays for the same team and I still don't know how the butterface Ellen managed to snag her.

Odd, we usually agree on hot women.

I mean Linda is hot, but Portia is seriously crazy loving hot. Just admit it.

I dunno, I mean, she's hot, but I think Linda is more so. I think I am broken.

vv

der juicen, you know I respect you and we generally get along, but yes I think you are broken for not recognizing that Portia is way hotter than Linda.

Now I am not saying you are wrong for picking Linda over Portia because we all have our own personal preferences. But objectively speaking, Portia blows Linda out of the water in the terms of pure hotness.

TMMadman was telling me that VERONICA was hotter, but HAH Linda takes the lead.

Hey, I said Linda was hot. I am just saying that Portia de Rossi is crazy loving hot.

It's like comparing apples and oranges. It doesn't work. They are both really hot, just on different scales.

Are you suggesting that sometimes, when I'm with Veronica, I should just let her go to sleep?

And then have sex with her?

edit - Some things just shouldn't be probed.

This episode is on fire tonight.

^^^ - I hate laugh tracks and I am glad that this show doesn't have one. I really wish they would remove it from BBT as well. Hell pretty much all shows. If you need a laugh track to tell you when to laugh then you are broken.

There are two episodes on tomorrow (Friday), one new and one repeat.

For anyone recording it, the new one is right after the Rose Bowl coverage so I wouldn't be surprised if it started late.

Oops, I didn't even notice that when I checked today. Although I must have at some point because it was already scheduled to be recorded.

The way they're burning off episodes, you can pretty much count on it being dead.

Next week is 2 Scrubs and 2 Teds. That is not scheduling a show you want to keep around.

Maybe if they hadn't dicked around with the schedule so much it would have gotten better ratings.

edit - Also, Tuesday is a terrible loving place for it as it has to go up against either NCIS or NCIS: LA. Both of which have a huge number of viewers, despite LA being a hunk of steaming crap.

I couldn't get Lie to Me, Greek, or Flash Forward, and I guessed on Fringe. Everything else was fairly easy, and I only watch or watched about half of those shows.

I missed Breaking Bad, Greek, The O.C. and Always Sunny. I have never seen any of those shows so it doesn't surprise me. I only watch 7 out of the 16 shows in that list, although I did see the first few episodes of Flash Forward. The others I recognized from commercials or from the star in the picture (Californication), but I did completely guess on Weeds.

I probably would have gotten The O.C. if it was still running because I would have recognized someone from a commercial on FOX. I rarely watch FX, AMC or ABC Family, so I never see any of the commercials for the other three.
