I remember watching season 4 for the first time. I made it through three episodes and I determined it was garbage and stopped. I have never seen the rest and i dont remember what happened. Anyone here saying season four is watchable has nothing of value to contribute to society and frankly should be euthanized.

The major problem with the puppet episode is the puppets themselves- they're the uninspired off-brand Muppety things you see on Christian kids' TV. Granted they had to look like the characters so that's limiting, but it did feel like they didn't do enough visually with the idea (compare to the Claymation or videogame eps and the nice goofy designs there.)

I really don't think the actual puppets were the problem with that episode. It was probably the cringe-inducing songs and terrible writing.

If I have to say anything good about the episode I think I liked when Pierce yelled "drat you Vicki!" or something when the balloon went down.

Okay so I bought season 4, it was on sale at JB Hi Fi for $13 AUD (normally it's $20-25 in stores).

Then I found out a weird thing: season 5 has never been released here on DVD.

I didn't say "wasn't very good", I said "wasn't as good". I still enjoyed it, even though I thought it wasn't up to par with the rest of the seasons. And I suppose I meant network TV as a blanket statement for CBS programming, which is what I think of when I think "network TV" because of how god drat popular that crap is. What do you consider good on network TV? And I mean the big four broadcast networks. I'm not being snarky or anything, I'm honestly asking. I'm sure I'll agree with you on a lot of it.

I never get the last word, and it makes me very sad.
"Are we sure this is a game and not some art film?" Man, I loved that episode. Both plots were fantastic, and Gina Gershon at the end was such a treat.

On a related note, I've been going through a rewatch as well, and I was kinda surprised at how much I liked season 1; I never did like the pilot much, and that probably colored my recollections of the rest of the season.

Sadly not. I know there was talk of it right after Sony re-hired Harmon, but I guess they wanted to play it safe and boring with the dullest cast and crew commentaries of any of the series.

I'm gonna join the top episodes chat from a few weeks ago and do my top 10 of season 1-3 now that I've rewatched it all. In chronological order:

s1e10 - Environmental Science (the first truly great episode of the show IMO)
s1e23 - Modern Warfare
s2e08 - Cooperative Calligraphy
s2e14 - Advanced Dungeons and Dragons
s2e21 - Paradigms of Human Memory
s2e23 - A Fistful of Paintballs
s3e03 - Remedial Chaos Theory
s3e10 - Regional Holiday Music
s3e14 - Pillows and Blankets
s3e19 - Curriculum Unavailable

So many of mine are gimmick episodes, but that's what the show does so well (most of the time). Pillows and Blankets probably just pushes out in front as my top episode of seasons 1-3.

I can't even imagine what it's like to see your show after it's gone off the rails for a bit. It must be like when you see your best school friend, only now it's two years after high school and he's still acting like that and you're trying to tell them "that was fine then, but you have to grow up" but it just doesn't take.

There's this really funny story being typed up somewhere about all the things Pick's done, too bad none of them are actually true. Seriously, out of 35,000 posts, the best you can find is me telling a crackpot who fallaciously accused me of being a child molester based on a lie about my comic to gently caress off?

Alison Brie is going to star in and executive produce a show on TV Land about elementary school teachers. It features Key & Peele showrunners and a Chicago improv group called The Katydids because everybody in the group is named some form of Kate.

TV Land. That's not the best sign.

But they will plug this at Comic-Con. It is called Teachers.

“Teachers” revolves around six elementary school teachers who are trying to mold the minds and lives of America’s youth, even though they don’t really seem to have their own lives together at all. From refusing to read fairytales because “sometimes Prince Charming wants to date other people” to hitting on the resident “hot dad,” these teachers are certainly changing the world, one student at a time. The series stars improv group The Katydids - Caitlin Barlow, Katy Colloton, Cate Freedman, Kate Lambert, Katie O’Brien and Katie Thomas – who also wrote and starred in the web hit that the TV series is based on. In addition to writing for and starring in “Teachers,” they will also serve as executive producers alongside Alison Brie (“Community”) and showrunners Ian Roberts and Jay Martel (“Key and Peele”).

I would watch Brie sleep. In a totally not freakish way, of course.
