OK, I really liked the latest Community. 2-4 were kinda not all there, somehow, but this one clicked for me.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Blanket forts are magic.
Unrelatedly, looks like Louie is still a show where anything can happen. I had some trepidation, for some reason.

IJWTS, I am grateful I didn't watch Louie last night before going to bed.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Was it "Friends" or "Northern Exposure" had the joke that used "Spiderman" as the example for why just adding "-man" didn't make a Jewish name? Maybe both, cause sometimes I picture Chandler and sometimes Dr. Joel.

Friends had the bit with Phoebe & Chandler: "He's not "Phil Spiderman". He's a Spider - Man." Though I wouldn't be surprised if Northern Exposure did one, I don't remember it off the top of my head - I haven't seen every episode 50 times like I have with Friends.

Maybe they both did. Wouldn't surprise me.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Any other fans of the new Odd Couple? It's a fairly standard NYC sitcom, except words cannot describe the brilliance that is Tom Lennon. He gives the standard version of Felix a modern metrosexual overlay. I suspect with a fair amount of improv.

Yeah, I think it's pretty cute, in kind of a retro way. New Felix kind of reminds me of Niles Crane.

Kind of -- but Lennon brings a physicality to Felix that Niles wouldn't dream of.

I tried to watch a couple of the early eps, but found them painful. Has it found its voice better? I'd be pleased to hear it because it seemed like such a waste of Lennon. And Perry. And Brown for that matter.
