NBC Thursday Comedies - Week 14

30 Rock is nearly done and The Office is breaking down the forth wall.  Also, stick around to the end for a guest star appearance of 1600 Penn.

NBC Thursday Comedies - Weeks 12 & 13

Once again, I've let myself get way behind on posts. Parks and Rec took a week off for a new comedy, 1600 Penn, so I'm stuffing two weeks together.

Downton Abbey - Series 1

A new catchup series.  This had been on my radar for a while, and I had told myself I was going to be ready for when it premiered in the States.  Alas, I only made it through the first series before the third one started airing here on PBS.  It's pretty addicting, though, so once I get started on the second series, I feel it won't be too long before I'm caught up.

Top Ten Shows of 2012

2012 has come and gone, and there was a lot of good TV this past year.  In my particular list, it was a resurgence of dramas pushing out a few of the comedies I had here last year (my second 10 is overflowing with comedies now).  While a few established dramas notably improved, the only new show of 2012 to make the list was a comedy.  Just a quick reminder, if I don't watch it, it can't make the list.  I watch a lot of shows, but I can't watch everything.  So no Downton Abbey.  I actually just started watching that, so maybe it will show up on the 2013 list.

NBC Thursday Comedies - Week 11

December can be a strange month.  I started working on my 2012 top ten list when it struck me that I had completely forgot to do a write up for the last NBC comedy block.  Between many family Christmas activities, the end of the fantasy football season, throwing a New Year's Eve party, and spending as much time as possible with a friend of mine who was home from Hawaii for a few weeks, it never even entered my mind.  These episodes aired way back on December 6th, so nearly a month ago.  If you can still remember them, here are some quick thoughts.

NBC Thursday Comedies - Week 10

A wedding!  An affair uncovered!  Heated rivalries!  Honestly, I really have nothing to say up here this week.  On to the reviews!

NBC Thursday Comedies - Week 9

I had an extra week to write these up due to Thanksgiving, and it's still being posted at the last minute.  Even with a few days off, I'm barely getting this up in time.  Just goes to show my ability to procrastinate knows no bounds.

NBC Thursday Comedies - Week 8

After being weirdly scheduled on a Wednesday, 30 Rock takes a week off.  Guess they had to get that election themed episode in before the election.  That leaves only two shows to review this week, and for once, I didn't completely hate The Office.

NBC Thursday Comedies - Weeks 6 & 7

Another combo week.  Hurricane Sandy knocked out a large portion of primetime television last week, and the Thursday night comedies had to be put on the back burner for The Voice.  For some strange reason, 30 Rock was put on Wednesday.  It was a two-parter anyway, so it kind of works out for this post.

NBC Thursday Comedies - Week 5

Whew, finally caught up.  A normal week this time, too.  Just three shows and three reviews.
