Outsourced S1E1

outsourced better be good, following the office and all.
now's a time for a good first impression.
  • i'm not the only one who thinks pb&j is best served with cheetos. catch that moment?
  • this show seems a bit racist. i hate to be the one to see it, but it's crude and racist. not approving.
  • i do enjoy the girl who can't speak above a mute-type whisper. 
whereas this show is quite racist, it brings up a valid point that i have failed to ever think about. no, not that outsourcing is wrong. no, not that there is anything wrong with india. but when american jobs are outsourced to places that aren't familiar with american culture, it is quite a job to educate them on the 'american' ways. this brings me to my next point. why does everyone in the world have to be familiarized with america? we're not all that far above every other culture in the world. i think that's the point NBC is parody-ing (?).

The Office S7E1

3 words: BEST OPENING EVER!


my opinion of steve carrell leaving (everyone not living under a rock knows this is happening, right):
the office is probably one of the best written shows out there as far as the wit goes.  now, steve carrell is not a writer for the show, so obviously the writing will continue to be amazing after he leaves. BUT, steve carrell is one of the better executors of the writing. so it's a toss up with what will happen to the office after steve carrell leaves. as you will see in the quote list (written in the spoilers), michael has the funniest lines. but once again, the writers. they'll give that role to someone else once steve is gone, right? they have to.







30 Rock S5E1

and now begins my relationship with 30 rock:

  • matt damon. can't stand him. his hair is getting gray. this makes me feel old. 
  • tina fey and matt damon sitting in a tree....
  • i officially want to claw my ears out. matt damon crying is quite awkward for me.  
  • i love their 'would you rather...?' games. bahaha. 
i think i'll be hitting up netflix soon, so i can catch up on 30 rock. i have fours seasons, but it's been done before. it helps that each episode is only 20 minutes long. i've been missing a lot of funny stuff.


Community S2E1

thursday night is only known all across america as being the funniest night of all the nights.
if days were in high school, thursday would be the class clown.



so we begin thursday night on NBC with Community.
i watched the very first three episodes ever. since then, i haven't really cared for the show.
but i know that if i'm gonna do this, i'm going to have to devote myself to the entire NBC thursday night.
so here goes:

  • betty white is in this episode. now, i'm not one of those die-hard betty white fans, but she is pretty entertaining for an 'older' woman. 
  • the blonde girl on troy's back attempting to do the wave--wow, she was bad. i would be quite embarrassed if i was her watching back on this.
  • as i'm watching this, i'm trying to overcome the fact that the main girl's name is britta. i just can't do it tho. britta. britta? really?
  • just a forewarning: i won't have much to say about this show, tonight at least, because i have no idea what is going on. 
  • that was not george clooney, just in case anyone was confused about that.
  • who remembers this quote: 'i better not smile at that wall outlet or you'll fry your tongue off.'
  • 20 minutes in and i'm finding that this show, although the premise is sorta lame, is very quotable. i say that, knowing that shows like the office are much more quotable. but this gives me one reason to enjoy community. i am definitely a sucker for quotastic television. 
  • every show should present a man with star-shaped sideburns. community is onto something here.
  • betty white has lost her voice over the years...if she ever had one.
