I loved Michael's new plasma tv

I loved last night's episode.

"It's purely carnal."

I need to start watching this show. I think Steve Carrell is hilarious but I've only seen bits and pieces of The Office (when I do it's funny though). I usually tend to take a break between 30 Rock (awesome) and Scrubs (starting to slip a little, imo)

I started watching the show last season and I think it's one of the best shows on TV.

Yea last nights show was great. This show is definitely my favorite comedy on tv. Loved when Dwight pulled up to the stop sign and his 'date' was waiting for the bus and he looked the other way and drove off. Or Dwights X-girl at dinner saying I dont want your beets in my mouth ever again. Love the show. Have been watching the office since the BBC and then when NBC made this version. Good stuff.

Very funny. Michael giving himself up to the Cops during the "domestic dispute", and Jim stealing the CD. But topper was Angela slamming her ice cream cone into the side of Andy's car because he stole a bite. The show is priceless.

Best show on TV, bar none. I thought last night was good but not great. Some funny lines, but overall seemed to be kind of out of line with what the show is usually about. SO awkward though! I've been to dinner parties like that...

Used to love Scrubs, but it's really tanked recently.

Used to love Scrubs, but it's really tanked recently.I feel the same way about Scrubs and that sucks.
I think the problem is that they have turned JD into a caricature of himself, much like The Simpsons writers have done with Homer. The characters are so out there now that they're not really relatable.

Seasons 1-4 were awesome, I think it started going downhill with Season 5, and 6 and 7 are just mediocre.

You are absolutely right - everything is so overdone now. What they did so well with "real" yet quirky characters early on is just chaos now. They've also reached the point where it's obvious they're digging for new content - they're attendings now, getting married, everyone is having first or second children, it's just ridiculous.

The whole idea of the show was this quirky young doctor trying to figure the job out - it's really lost it's way lately.

yeah it's a real shame. I'm not a doctor but some of my best friends are doctors and they've always said Scrubs is the most realistic doctor/hospital show on television (I don't know if they'd say the same anymore though). Rumor is it's coming to ABC next year for its final season. I wish they'd just let it end though.

30 Rock is really good though. And I definitely need to start watching The Office. How does it compare to the British one for those that have seen both?

Yeah a good show. But one of my favorites is coming back to TV, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Very very underrated show.
