speaking of old NBC sitcoms, I've been rewatching 30 Rock and I forgot how consistent this show is. It probably rivals the golden years of the simpsons in terms of good jokes/minute

30 Rock was good television, Dennis is one of the better minor sitcom characters in sitcoms IMO

community was good but it’s also very much had-to-be-there show that’s Obama-era as gently caress. and you either like it or dont. fwiw the first couple of eps are rough for a variety of reasons I don’t know how or why anyone would just finally watch it in 2023 for the first time

does the experience of being a driver make you better understand driving scenes in movies? i can hardly tell what’s going on in mi6 sometimes, also other movies with more than a couple vehicles.

Agreed that Community takes a little while to get going; it's one of those shows with a particularly rough season 1 before they have the character's shticks fully figured out. Jeff and Britta in particular are Generic Male And Female Leads for that season and don't become actual characters until S2

Jeff seems like he should be the author-insert but Abed is actually the author-insert

Presumably The Office did too but I wasn't watching by then so I don't know

I wish someone would just release Modern Family cuts for specific family members. Screw everyone else, I want all Phil Dunphy storylines and nothing else

This show is dog poo poo. Season 1 was a decade late 1-dimensional 00's era War on Terror propaganda and season 2 was hilarious pro-regime change propaganda in Venezuela so it makes sense that Season 3 is gonna be about scary Russians (incorrectly) trying to resurrect the Soviet Union propaganda and being behind all the West's problems.
