must see Thursday


So Thursday night TV writing was on POINT last night. Here are my favorite moments from my favorite shows:

Community:
Law & Order inspired ep...FANTASTIC


30 Rock: Live Episode
Jon Hamm as BANJO

"They thought that two black people on the same show would make people nervous...a rule NBC still uses today!"-Kenneth
The Office:

  • Jim: Okay, guys, not every glance means something. Alright? Life isn't "Downton Abbey."
  • Pam: Life IS "Downton Abbey."

I was obsessed with this moment for OBVIOUS reasons!

Parks & Rec:
The Debate episode might have been my SECOND favorite all season...last week was my favorite!
"Nothing pumps me up like Sarah McLachlan!" - Leslie Knope

This episode actually had MANY awesome moments. I advise to watch it in it's entirety. Andy acts out scenes from Rambo, Roadhouse, & Babe, Traeger & Ann are the ultimate spin team, Jerry is watching with nuns, and the debate discusses the important issues of who is the best James Bond to books turned into movies. 

Grey's Anatomy: 

There is no better friendship on television than Meredith & Cristina. It's my favorite. 










Scandal:
THE BEST MOMENT OF THE NIGHT...Cyrus' hypothetical monologue of what a "Post-Public-Affair" life would be like for President Grant:

Cyrus: "What's next? What's next. Okay here's what happens next. You resign from office now! Or Amanda goes on TV, tells her sad sordid tale, there are hearings, you're impeached, and you're forced to resign from office. Your Vice President, a moronic, right wing, nut job, who thinks the Tea Party was founded to lower the yacht tax! And also seems to not quite understand that Evolution isn't an idea, but an actual fact! But who cares we won the scary states in the election! They'll have a party now that their Grand Wizard is President! I'm pretty sure I'll never see a legal marriage, and women will lose the right to choose. But hey whatever! We're all Republicans, even if the new president will give Republicans a bad name! You'll leave in disgrace, go home to California; keep a low profile a while. And then some fancy publishing house will pay you a fortune for a book, which you'll write. Only it won't talk about what everyone really wants to know about, it won't talk about your sordid affair with a white house aide, it'll talk about policy and your thoughts on the economy. And it won't sell! Because no one cares about your thoughts on policy and the economy anymore because you're not the President anymore! What you are now is a joke on Letterman! Millie, a lovely woman, ambitious and strong, and well quite wealthy in her own right; she's not going to be circa 1998 Hilary on this! No siree, this is the 21st Century, she's going to leave you and she's going to take your children with her. And everyone will applaud her from the religious right to the women's groups because you are a philandering pig, who had a child out of wedlock, and we all know it's true because we heard the tape! You'll be alone in your house in Santa Barbara, listening to old records and telling the same story over and over again to the poor sap not smart enough to get out of being assigned to your secret service detail. Then one day, about oh, three or four years from now, you'll step into your bathroom, take out that revolver your father gave you when you were elected governor; you'll put it in your mouth and you'll blow the back of your skull off! Oprah's retired now, so I guess I'll have to do a post funeral interview with Barbara Walters. She's nice. But you know...you just go back to writing your own speech, that's important. (Chuckles) That matters!"
     All of this said while he drapes himself casually across the couch in the Oval...oh it was amazing to watch.


    Did you watch any GOOD tv last night?
