Jeff and Britta aren't on camera nearly as much as Liz and Jack, though. They don't get a ton of screentime in today's episode.

I'm not sure if this new tendency to appeal to the apparent inherent evil of Xahar in all things even remotely related to forum policing or this damn game is especially helpful.

I'm watching the eps on Hulu now and this is pretty good. I'm going to add the first season 1 disc to my Netflix queue.

If you liked season two, then season one ought to blow you away.

The episode today was one of a few this year where the shift in tone between the two seasons was a good thing. An episode like that wouldn't have been possible a year ago.

The one I watched was the one where Pierce was about to marry the Chinese girl.

The season finale next week is going to be nuts.

What I don't get is why it doesn't pull better numbers.  I know it's up against another great show in Big Bang Theory (which crushes it in the ratings...we're talking 3:1 here), and one that is aiming at a very similar demographic.  It (Community) has been renewed for another season and CBS seems to like to move BBT around every season so maybe it won't be up against it next year.  I think Community is a much better show, but I understand it's not everybodies cup of tea.

The unique misfortune of the Palestinian refugees is that they are a weapon in what seems to be a permanent war...today, in the Middle East, you get a repeated sinking sensation about the Palestinian refugees: they are only a beginning, not an end. Their function is to hang around and be constantly useful as a goad. The ultimate aim is not such humane small potatoes as repatriating refugees.

People do not have great taste. Tongue I mean, look at Arrested Development.

Excellent show. It expands what should be a generic premise into a great production with top notch casting and out of the box writing. Last night's return to paintball modeled on a spaghetti western was one of the smartest episodes on TV this season, in or out of the sitcom genre.

I've actually never met anyone who watched it and didn't like it. I wouldn't have been crushed if it got the hook, though. Parks and Recreation is clearly superior at this point.

Family Guy isn't far left and South Park isn't far right.

I still have yet to seen Community but I should check the show out sometime.

Family Guy isn't committedly leftist (or at least, not intelligently so), it just parrots the most dumbed-down versions possible of conventional American liberal talking points.

My roommate's cousin is a writer for it, so he normally watches it, and if I'm around, I'll watch it.  I generally like it, but it's not one of the shows I keep up with.

It's not coming back in January. The remaining episodes will be aired at some point, but it's hard to see it continuing beyond this.
