    Yeah, she sure looks pretty all modernized.
    I enjoyed it, but because of the commercials and trailers, I had seen much of the pilot without trying.
    Ken Juong (SP?) comes onboard as an instructor in later episodes and that guy's a laugh riot. He was the Asian gangster in bachelor party movie and the doctor in Knocked Up. He's been in other stuff too.
    Seems like they have a real good cast.

    Liked the pilot a lot. I'll definitely be watching to see how it develops.

    I thought it was a "meh" at best. But definitely better than "Parks and Recreation," which was/is aggressively bad.

    I don't really like Parks/Rec, but I thought last night's episode was actually pretty funny.

    That's the one thing keeping me from watching that show. I cannot express how much I abhor Chevy Chase. I wish I could get paid for hating him. Then I'd be abwhoring him!

    But seriously, Caddyshack, National Lampoon's Vacation, and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation are the only things with Chevy Chase that I like.

    What's with his constant blinking? I think he needs to be investigated by Homeland (in)Security. I think he's sending morse code messages to sleeper cells via his blinks. He used to play drums for Steely Dan so that proves he hates music [I hate Steely Dan as much as I hate Chevy Chase]. Is it that far of a stretch to think that he might hate this country too?

    The fact you didn't mention Fletch makes you lose all credibility. :)

    I thought the episode was good - or at least good enough to come back to it. Hell, HBO shows always take 3 epsiodes before getting good.

    And Parks and Rec took a big step up, in my opinion, with its season 2 debut episode.

    Actress Yvette Nicole Brown plays Shirley on the show.
    Here is how her name appeared in the opening credits of this week's episode:

  9. It was certainly better than any of the episodes of last season. Characters aren't really appealing outside of Amy Poehler. I am amazed that NBC was talking of dropping Chuck, but this piece of crap show kept on trucking without any rumors of its demise.

    Yeah but the rap scene at the end was hilarious, as was Ken Jeong. "Why don't you teach math? Or photography? Or how to build a wall you can see from space? I AM A SPANISH GENIUS!"

    The rest of the show blows.

    I thoroughly enjoyed it. Didn't dig the pilot, but holy hell did I love the second ep.

    here's the rap for anyone who didn't watch.
