Community is back to its comedic roots, but not without some key losses along the way. Last season, we lost Pierce (Chevy Chase) and this season, Pierce died and took his former roommate Troy (Donald Glover) with him. Not literally with him since Troy’s till alive and all, but Pierce’s will offered him an opportunity […]
This week said a tearful goodbye to Ann and Chris on Parks and Recreation. While this wasn’t the funniest episode, it was definitely an emotional one as everyone struggled to figure out the perfect way to send Ann and Chris off. Leslie already knows exactly what she had to do for Ann before she leaves. […]
When an actor leaves a long-running TV series before its natural conclusion, it’s generally not a good thing. Sure, there are some series so long-lived that turnover is not only inevitable but necessary (while it’s key that Grey’s Anatomy has held on to McDreamy, where would we be if George never left and Jackson never […]

That’s an overstatement of course; as one of those cartoonish people who honestly took a university course called “The History […]
Downton this week was fine. It wasn’t fantastic, but it wasn’t terrible. It fell somewhere squarely in the middle. After weeks of stepping outside of its comfort zone, Downton retreated back to the familiar. There was nothing wrong with it, but it didn’t shine like it did in the past few weeks. Thomas is back […]
‘The Sign of Three’ was a light, but perfectly enjoyable episode of Sherlock. It took a break from the darker arcs the show has been pursuing of late, and delivered a fun adventure instead. Thinking about it, since the end of Season 1, there has been a Moriarty shaped shadow hanging over the show. The […]
This episode of Girls focused on Hannah’s reaction to her editor David’s death and her at least perceived lack of emotional depth. This episode felt incredibly familiar to me and kept pulling me back to My So Called life and Freaks and Geeks more so than most episodes. This episode discussed the grieving process and […]
