- I love 'em all, but Phil is a shining star. (nm) - musubi Apr 29, 09:17 1

  - And Gloria. And Dylan, even. -- nm - Callisto Apr 29, 09:13
- Either the younger daughter or Manny. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:13
- Manny -- nm - Ender Apr 29, 09:13
- This is so hard. Phil, or Manny, or Sofia Vergera, or Claire. -- nm - TFox Apr 29, 09:12
- Gloria, or the Phil's youngest daughter -- nm - prayformojo Apr 29, 09:12
- So, what I get from all this is that I need to get the DVD's of season 1 when they come out correct? -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:12 1
  - Yes. You should break your "no torrenting" rule for it. -- nm - Shaun Apr 29, 09:16

Abbey, DiNozzo, McGee, Ducky all are asking for pay raises for NCIS as thier contracts are up.... -- (link) - Remlik Apr 29, 09:05 14
- Overrated, carries the series, underrated, coolest old guy on TV. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 09:07
- Absolutely. It's killing in the ratings after a bazillion years on the air, they deserve to share in that success. -- nm - TWuG Apr 29, 09:07
- no, yes, yes, no -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:06
- No, Yes, Yes, Yes. - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:05 10
  - yeah she's done. -- nm - Remlik Apr 29, 09:10
  - She's easily the weakest link as an actress. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 09:08
  - or at least give her some depth and make it about a person, not a one liner freakshow. - tRuMaN Apr 29, 09:08 7
    - whenever there's an Abby-centric episode, it really shows her limited range. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 09:08 6
      - Wentworth Miller from Prison Break could give her lessons on range -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:09 5
        
        her guest stint on LA was dreadful. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 09:10 4
        
        well...it was NCIS LA....how could you tell it was just her :) -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:11 3
        
        she looked like the worst actor on screen, what does that say? -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 09:11 2
        
        yeah, it really was bad. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 29, 09:14

Gulu Walk! -- nm - zork Apr 29, 09:02
Modern Family is sublime, but I really like Cougar Town as well. It's a solid hour of comedy. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:01 37
- If they had only put Better Off Ted after Modern Family instead.... -- nm - JaxSean Apr 29, 09:06 14
  - The Middle - Modern Family - Better Off Ted - Cougar Town would have been a nice comedy lineup. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:09 1
    - Yup. I'm not sure what their reasoning was for not replacing Hank with Better Off Ted. -- nm - JaxSean Apr 29, 09:11
  - Dude, we watched 2 episodes of BOT. It's *awful.* In our opinion of course. -- nm - Shaun Apr 29, 09:07 11
    - I never thought it was awful, I just did not think it was funny -- nm - amoxy Apr 29, 09:21
    - Dead to me. (nm) - musubi Apr 29, 09:19
    - this is the wrongest thing that's ever been said. -- nm - Reagen Apr 29, 09:12 1
      - I diaagree. -- nm - Shaun Apr 29, 09:13
    - Awful? Really? Have you never worked before? - JaxSean Apr 29, 09:09 5
      - See, I don't think it's a Dilbert-esque "it's only funny to working folks" show. It's just absurd awesomeness. - TFox Apr 29, 09:11 2
        
        Yeah, the working in an office just adds to it but it's pretty damn funny on it's own. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:14
        
        I agree, but I'd think at the very least people working for any type of corporation could find *some* kind of funny in the absurdness of it. -- nm - JaxSean Apr 29, 09:12
      - Sorry man. It had zero effect on me. -- nm - Shaun Apr 29, 09:10 1
        
        wow -- nm - prayformojo Apr 29, 09:13
    - .......... -- nm - TFox Apr 29, 09:08
- I may never get over the title of this show enough to watch it. -- nm - TFox Apr 29, 09:02 16
  - Good news then, they're thinking of re-titling it next season. -- nm - Ender Apr 29, 09:12 3
    - dried up cunt town? nm -- nm - groiny Apr 29, 09:13 2
      - i think cootch is the preferred term today -- nm - the narcissist Apr 29, 09:18
      - *snicker* -- nm - Don Homer Apr 29, 09:14
  - I watched the first couple eps or so and just didn't get what everyone was gushing about. - decline Apr 29, 09:09
  - What do you have against the titlte? -- nm - ty97 Apr 29, 09:05 6
    - It sounds tacky and dumb. -- nm - TFox Apr 29, 09:05 5
      - I just realized: I don't even know which show we're talking about. -- nm - ty97 Apr 29, 09:08
      - As mentioned below, it's entirely inappropriate to what the show is now, but I think they are stuck with it. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:07 3
        
        I get that, but I'd still need to turn on a show called Cougar Town. -- nm - TFox Apr 29, 09:08
        
        Actually, there are rumblings they could be changing the name. (Although idk how this occurs?) -- nm - MDH Apr 29, 09:08 1
        
        It worked for The Hogan Family. -- nm - Ender Apr 29, 09:19
  - i think the title refers to the direction the show originally intended to go in - prayformojo Apr 29, 09:04 1
    - I agree, though I'm not complaining that I got some shirtless Nick Zano out of the deal. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:06
  - I think it took a few episodes to find it's groove, but it's in it now. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:04 1
    - Ironically, ditching the entire premise suggested by its title was apparently what it needed to get there. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:05
- i'm with you on this -- (link) - prayformojo Apr 29, 09:02 [Backboard]
- Agreed. If my TV could only work one hour a week, I'd be perfectly happy with choosing just this hour. -- nm - ty97 Apr 29, 09:02
- yes. -- nm - Callisto Apr 29, 09:01 2
  - (I'm so crazy about Bobby.) -- nm - Callisto Apr 29, 09:02 1
    - The petting zoo episode had me in stitches. -- nm - The Human Danopede Apr 29, 09:03
*wipes out going up the stairs* I need to fix that step! -- nm - Shaun Apr 29, 08:57
Re: Friends. I really, really wanted to punch Ross. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 08:55 24
- "It's making a paste!!!" -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 29, 09:01
- I wanted to punch all of them. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 29, 08:59 10
  - Courtney was smokin the first few seasons... -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:00 9
    - I thnk she looks even better now. -- nm - ty97 Apr 29, 09:01 1
      - she really is lovely. Part of it is that she's just so damn funny. -- nm - Callisto Apr 29, 09:03
    - I am not a JANIS fan, and Courtney lost her hotness when she married Arquette. nm -- nm - groiny Apr 29, 09:01
    - "How many cameras were on you?" -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:00 5
      - great line. the later years she reminded me of Chandler when he was a druggie -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:01 4
        
        It gets maligned a lot, but I think it's one of the one or two most quotable comedies in the last 30 years. - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:04 3
        
        definitely. "Laminated list" for God's sake. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 09:14
        
        Simpsons, Seinfeld, Cheers, Friends, South Park would be top 5 I think -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 09:05 1
        
        Simpsons is tops, yeah...i missed them. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:07
- they were on a break!!! -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 08:57
- Everyone shoulda by about season 6 or 7. - Will Hunting Apr 29, 08:57 9
  - Season 1 does not hold up well. -- nm - Shaun Apr 29, 08:58 2
    - I thought well of it a few months back....not nearly as badly holding up as Seinfeld. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:00 1
      - I agree that Seinfeld does not hold up. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 09:03
  - it was more like 4 or 5 for me, but yes. and agreed on the IM. Chandler was far and away my favorite for the whole series. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 08:57 5
    - I started out liking Chandler best, then it was Ross, then it was Joey. - Callisto Apr 29, 09:01 2
      - I started out liking Ross...while Chandler and Joey were the humor....but after about Season 3, Chandler and Joey carried it for 5 years - Will Hunting Apr 29, 09:03
      - I liked Joey much more as the series neared the end. Ross just grated on me more and more until I wanted to kill him. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 09:02
    - too skinny Chandler was scary -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 08:58 1
      - or do we call him drugged up Matthew -- nm - Beaker Apr 29, 08:59
- 18 pages! Front and back! -- nm - oblique Apr 29, 08:56
well this sucks. An NB WWII veteran who was awarded an all expenses paid trip to Holland died days before he was supposed to go -- link - Beaker Apr 29, 08:55 2
- serves him right for taking Andie' -- nm - zork Apr 29, 09:03 1
  - SFEK ... Andie's trip. -- nm - zork Apr 29, 09:03

Honestly I wish that little tart would go back to Columbia and take her weird little brown friend with her. -- nm - ty97 Apr 29, 08:54 4
- probably my favorite line of the series thus far. -- nm - loosilu Apr 29, 08:56
- *great* line. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 08:55 2
  - I want to give them an award for coming up with that joke and making it work so damn well -- nm - oblique Apr 29, 08:55 1
    - Yep. The writers deserve raises for their stuff. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 29, 08:59
Would you jam this guy? -- (link) - Hotkiss Apr 29, 08:54 1
- that is just so wrong -- nm - Epiphany Apr 29, 09:08
