With the return of “The Office” tonight, this might be a good time to point out a few things:
* “The Office” remains NBC’s top-rated scripted series.
* Without “The Office” as a lead-in last week, “Community” overtook “30 Rock” for the first time ever.
* “Chuck” is currently NBC’s third-biggest show.
* "Trauma" and "Mercy" both just hit series lows while "SVU" hit a season low.
* “Heroes” fell to another all-time low Monday. It now ranks between the Tuesday and Wednesday editions of the now-cancelled “Jay Leno Show.”

new Burn Notice and supernatural returning with new episodes tonight.
-
Lacey shows up.Good for Chuck. If you believe Grunberg's wishful thinking, Heroes will survive and resolve the cliffhangers that are reportedly left dangling.
-
FUCK YEAH!
-
I love the office (i even worked on the show during season 2) but latley i find myself anticipating community then i do a new episode of the office on thursday nights
-
Anyone remember the halloween episode when Chevy's character asked the main guy what he was dressed up as and then quickly replied "Gay Douche Bag?" That still makes me laugh.
-
I thought it was the first of the DECADE?
-
Sounds like a cheesy flashback episode. I'll still watch though...
-
...In the DVD Cover sucks. That lowers the quality of the movie. What fuck tards.
SUPERNATURAL FTW. -
What the Office is not on again next week? The Fuck NBC?
-
Can't emphasize this enough people. That shit is hillarious. Community and 30 rock too, but MF is my new favorite.
-
I mean, seriously. How much longer?
-
I feel like there's no way that the bosses from this new company will be cool with there being two managers at the Scranton branch. I feel like one of the only logical directions that they could go would be to keep Jim on as full-time manager and demote Michael, back to a salesman.
-
yeah Thursday's are great for new Burn Notice, what I don't understand is it has the bruce in in yet no Talkback WTF? Plus it's one of the most fun shows to watch on tv
-
WTF!!!
-
Jack Black singing about that young brunette chick's ass = Priceless...
-
But she was far from being the worst part of SyFy's crapfest Alice mini.
-
Sometimes funny. But WAY too forced. Not as bad as Big Bang though. Community is the absolute perfect balance that just works. No show has ever put together the same tone that Community has.
-
Almost willing to take it off DVR.
-
Office is on a major slide.
-
What I dig about Modern Family, is that it's about a family unit, like every single sitcom in the last few decades, but manages to put really fresh spins on characters. Community is funny, but it just put oddball characters together from different places of life and let them bounce off each other. MF still feels like a family, but we don't have the goddamn tired cliché of "smart mom keeping her goofy husband under control and caring for her bright, but problematic kids." They casually discuss which kid is the dumbest, Al Bundy has a golddigger trophy wife and the "family sitcom" feels fresh again. they're just fun to watch. And I wouldn't call it overrated - one or two posts in the sitcom talkbacks is not hype.
-
that kid is doing great.
-
Is amazing. The Dad is funny as hell and Manny is the best kid on TV ever!
-
then the Jack Black episode happened. But one bad show out of 13 is still pretty good. They should be back on track tonight.
-
on Community! You were awesome.
-
Now I agree that 30 Rock WAS on a major backslide this season, but the past three episodes (from Julianne Moore's cameo to now) have shown a turnaround.
-
It was fun to see he and Chevy together again, too

Modern Family, Community, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
by badmrwonka
my 3 favorite comedies on TV at the moment.Modern Family is fucking CONSISTENT, too. the laughs are just non-stop. when Phil was in the hospital, this exchanged just KILLED me. Luke asks him if he was scared to go to surgery:
Phil: When was the last time you saw your old man scared?
Luke: When you walked into that spider web … when we were playing with the Ouija board and the wind blew the door shut…
Phil: That wasn’t the wind buddy, we brought something forth.seriously? that was fucking hilarious. the first episode, with the gun that kept going off. oh my god, it's just hilarious. -
I wish I could marry her. I would die happy.
http://tinyurl.com/yk2722s
she's PERFECT! -
and if he was alive today..."
-
When was that bug eyed freak on Modern Family? I missed last night's so I am assuming that is when she was on.
-
Then they turned him into a whiney loser bitch. Just the past few episodes he has returned to his muselike greatness.
-
Plastic face. She was so pretty when she was normal looking. You cannot even tell that it is the same person. She now looks to be trying to overpower Castle Greyskull.
-
She reminds me of Victoria Jackson back in 90s on SNL, only funny.
-
2 things flaming. I am not saying that the show is not good, but overrated. Better than 30 rock, and maybe tied with the Office, but Community and (damn, I never thought I would say this) P&R are golden. Office may never come back, not until Pam cheats on Jim with Michael. You know they have set that up. Her art exhibit. MS Paper Company. Dundy Awards. She is not just being nice.
-
Is probably my favorite show on Thursdays now. I think it is a good ensemble. Joel McHale plays that "smartest guy in the room" role so well (ironically it was what made Chevy Chase so popular in the 80s).
-
Right? Started sliding in season 4 and completely ate it from s5 onward.
-
If that shit gets cancelled I definitely will not miss it. I'm still watching solely because I'm a completionist that has been watching it for this long, and it hasn't completely slid into complete unwatchability for me. Remember the assholes who compared that show to Lost? Hhahahahaahahaahaha
-
New episode tonight!
-
Best show on tv.
-
Ruining my midseason Smallville premier. Selfish assholes. I swear.
-
you should have died instead of the haitians
-

-
We have Community, Modern Family, 30 ROCK, Dexter, Supernatural, HIMYM (random gay ass musical number in the middle of the episode for no reason was such a shock laugh). Just finished watching THE SHIELD and the WIRE... So much quality, charm and originality in all of these... yet most movies continue to fail miserably.
-
Ya got me. And my shameful Supermanville love. Clearly you are out of touch with how much ass Smallville is finally kicking.
-
it's the show I always look forward to the most out the four NBC Thursday comedies even though I think Parks & Rec is a little "better" (whatever that means).
One thing though, has anyone else noticed how often Joel McHale/Jeff is referred to as being hot? It seems like every episode has some mention of what a great-looking guy he is. Don't get me wrong, he seems like a handsome enough fella but the characters interact with him like he's Brad Pitt or something. Perhaps I'm over thinking it. As Dean Pelton says, "This better not awaken anything in me." -
One of the best things ever on Supernatural.
-
star Jenna Fischer's tits.
-
on general principle, I'm quitting watching the horridly shitty Heroes. So there goes their last viewer. Only those assholes could fuck up an X-men ripoff. That means The Office is now the only 30 minutes per week my DVR is set to NBC, and I could quit that with relatively little inconvenience.
-
There writing some funny-ass characters. As much as Fey and Pohler annoy the fuck out of me on SNL, they really impress on their own shows.
-
Its like I'm watching the Golden Girls.
-
Thanks the Office, a part of me just died inside.
-
But really a clip show? What the fuck where they thinking? I am insulted by this.
-
Have no fears, we've got stories for years.
-
Fonzie is greasing up his water skis.
-
Sigh. Unfortunate. Hopefully it meets its end soon, and Michael reunites with Holly.
-
Can't believe they revealed THAT piece of news on an otherwise boring clip show. LOL at people who turned off early!
-
Oh, wait...
-
The chin strikes again
-
we get a clip show. And then, we have to wait two weeks for another new episode? Way to squander one of your best rated shows. NBC sure is on an effin' roll.
-
But missed the faux secret. Was there really one?
-
Fuck you Dale Snidderman!
-
did they get new writers after S4 or was that just when they ran out of ideas?
I've seen better Office clip shows on Youtube, they should be ashamed. -
if only for making Chevy Chase funny again. "I don't get it....is the tea killing the flowers?" hee!
-
I was wishing there was because it just seemed so lame for this show to not give it a twist.
-
jim was where?
total bs. -
What ... the ... fuck ...
-
So not only does a clip show suck, it reminds me of waaaaay back when this show was incredible. Seasons 2 and 3 of The Office were amazing. Now the show isn't even worth watching. *sigh*
-
But I did enjoy seeing the cat tossed again!
-
haven't watched tonight's 30 rock yet, is murray in it?
oh, and david constabile has got quite a fucking range. I watched all of the the wire, conchords and damages; and yet, it took me about 15 minutes of office to figure out why is that bank guy so familiar. can't wait to see his character in next season of braking bad. -

Community has found what makes a great comedy -Heart.
by keepfuckingthatchicken
Community has grown into one of the best ensemble casts on TV and the comedic writing has been outstanding because they have found, in less than half of a season, the perfect balance of heart and comedy. Troy and Abed at the end of the episodes always keep the comedy going and tonight's was no exception. Britta finally got some good character development tonight as she was a little boring and 1-D for awhile, but this episode made her likable again. Office HAS been sliding and they need to end the show in 2011. P&R, Community, and 30 Rock make me laugh on a continuous basis. Office has me SMH too much...the last decent episode was the company conference with the stock shareholders then before that was the wedding. Nothing else stands out this season.
-
handle character development and status quo change, much. Look at how Brits still moan about the last few seasons of Red Dwarf. They wanted it to just be Lister being a slob yob ad infinitum.I've only ever seen The Office on DVD; never with the commercials, and doled out each week. It plays better in a marathon without the interruptions.
-
The NBC comedies are funny and all, but nothing made me laugh harder than that tonight. Very good ep of Supernatural.
-
And the reason why Community is so funny is the writing and the actors. The whole show has a comedic rhythm thats incredibly entertaining IMO. The show seems to be hitting its stride in the past couple months.Also maybe this is just me but the show has a positive vibe on the surface but its kind of dark to the core (in a subtle way if that makes any sense)... I mean most of the characters are losers at a community college. It's light and upbeat but tragic at the same time (but maybe Im looking too deeply here)...Simply put it's like a bizarro Saved By The Bell...
-
Clip shows had there place back in the day without youtube and complete season DVD's readily available for fans. They just don't work anymore and to come back after 6 weeks with one is just weak. The only thing this episode did for me was remind me how good the earlier shows were and how ok they are now. I am no hater and a huge fan of the Office, but have to admit even watching Steve Carrell tonight his acting seems really forced lately.
-
Which she deserved. The flowers were the final FU. Great job.
-
NBC had an almost 2 month hiatus from the office, so they thought put on a clip show, hype it as a new episode and everyone will tune in to watch, however it was another bonehead move by the cock network, they would have been better off just mimicing last thrusdays line up and giving us a double episode of Parks, community or 30 rockAnd I love community, but i get the vibe that NBC will never appreciate the show, they'll continue to renew it, but treat it like crap by moving it around or not promoting it enough...nbc never thinks of the future, the office and 30 rock are the thursday strong holds now, but both shows are nearing their ends in a few years, NBC needs to lock down community so it can one day take over the 9 pm slotOverall it was a solid thursday line up with Park's episode being the best and offices being the worst. community and 30 were average episode with community being slightly better
-
I can't wait for the Community clip Show...when will that be?
-
to scenes from the series, but they're presented The Soup style with Joel McHale presenting them.
-
was when we were reminded of Jim and Pam's wedding that happened three months ago. I forgot all about that.
-
so why a damned clip show!?!?!
-
But I think the last two seasons of the show have been as good as ever. Season 4 was the only bad season, ever since last year it's been very funny.
I wasn't thrilled about Jim and Pam getting together, or Jan leaving, or any of that, but it's all been funny. Michael Scott Paper Company one of the series best storylines ever.
No way is the Office on a slide, but the clip show...yeah, that blew. But I didn't remember the "That's What She Said" about Phyllis at the picnic. I am still laughing today about that one. -
Some of the funniest 5 minutes of the Office was Dwight starting the fire drill and everyone panicking. Angela throwing the cat through the ceiling was one of the funniest scenes on tv ever.
