Excited for this show! Wanted to point out....Terry Crews wasn't Terry Tate Office Linebacker...that was another dude who is also a great actor and does a lot of voice work. Unless I'm missing a season two of Terry Tate or something.

All right, we all knew there'd be a hit so let's just get it over with. Brooklyn Nine-Nine dropped to a 1.8 in the demo. On the bright side, that's still better than Dads (1.5) and The Mindy Project (also 1.5), and not TOO far off from New Girl (2.1).

Yeah given the competition, I think those are good numbers. Running any comedy against SHIELD is going to get hurt bad from the numbers, it's just something they'll have to deal with. Or maybe put a singing competition on in that timeslot and reschedule the sitcoms elsewhere.

I'm still kind of surprised Fox didn't go for the kill shot on NBC considering it has a nearly entirely fresh Thursday night.

But are they hotter than Andre Braugher? I remain unconvinced. I liked Diaz more this episode than last episode, so that was pretty good. I actually liked everything more this episode than last episode. I want to see it again though because I'm still trying to figure out my thoughts on the office assistant girl

The office assistant girl is Chelsea Peretti and I'm gonna take a stab at people who know who she is from other stuff will take to her faster than people who've not seen her in anything. It's probably worth following her on Twitter, or scoping out some of her other work (although a lot of it is writing for other people). Obviously not everyone will come around to her, but I think a lot of people will.

I liked her more last week, she was my favorite person last week I think. She seemed kinda dumber this week, but I literally just threw the episode on again so we'll see

I am going to start watching New Girl soon I hear its pretty rad. How many episodes do you think I should skip in the first season?

Stop skipping episodes of things. Just muscle through if you really want to watch the show.

Yeah, so, when you tell somebody that they have to "muscle" through something it doesn't make it sound like an enjoyable experience

They aren't all standalone episodes, there's a storyline. So if you skip episodes you're skipping story. I watched them all and I never thought New Girl was bad, but then again I have no taste.

I really like Andy Samberg. Hot Rod is one of my favorite movies. I don't really watch SNL anymore, but I like some of the Lonely Island songs. Am I a horrible person?

No because I'm the same, and meant to bring up Hot Rod in this thread. It's great. (Same except I didn't really care for TLI latest and I still like SNL, but other than that!)

This show is my first exposure to Andy Samberg besides seeing him in the Franco roast, I don't have much of an opinion on him as an actor but I'm not a huge fan of the way his character is written

Conquistador posted:Yeah, so, when you tell somebody that they have to "muscle" through something it doesn't make it sound like an enjoyable experience Everything starts coming together in the third episode and there's no real noticeable dip in quality over the season, every episode is at least fun and worth the 22 minute investment. It's not like it's Parks and Rec S1

The "stigma" of being in commercials is going farther away by the minute. As long as they're not terrible and/or annoying, there's really no downside to doing commercials for some extra cash anymore.
