You Punched A Lady Bee

Another great episode of "Community" that bent the rules but still played by them. Still the best comedy on the air.

"Community" 2x6: "Epidemiology"

October 25, 2010

Accomplices

We're halfway through the first season of "Boardwalk Empire," which remains the best drama currently airing.

"Boardwalk Empire" 1x6: "Family Limitation"

(And as always, here's my week in review.)

Those Aren't Thumbs

A gimmick-heavy but still very entertaining episode of "Community."

"Community" 2x4: "Basic Rocket Science"

I Ain't Buildin' No Bookcase


Another great episode of "Boardwalk Empire" last night.

"Boardwalk Empire" 1x4: "Anastasia"

(And here's my weekly wrap-up, too.)

Day At A Time, I Suppose

A smart, solid episode of "Boardwalk Empire" last night. Easily the best new drama of the season, even with just three episodes aired.

"Boardwalk Empire" 1x3: "Broadway Limited"

(And be sure to check out my week in review post, as well.)

Review: Let Me In

Not terrible, but not as good as it could have been. Worth checking out as an interesting comparison with the original, which is fantastic, and available for streaming on Netflix (with correct subtitles, too).

I Stopped Doing Blow, Not Being Rad

Fantastic episode of Community this week. I'm amazed by the show's consistency.

"Community" 2x2: "Accounting for Lawyers"
