Recently, my media professor said that we were in the “Age of television.” He said the 70’s had the movies, the 90’s had hip-hop and we have TV. Then he said that Friends was the worst television show ever and that’s what I tuned out and don’t know what happened in the rest of the […]
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. […]

This episode of Parks and Rec had its funny moments, especially with Ron and Craig. However, I am pretty ready for Ann and Chris to leave. Their storylines have been kind of boring this season. I do still love them, though, and hope they get the huge sendoff they deserve. The episode starts off with […]
This week’s Parks and Rec was one of transitions. With people moving forward, and some moving back, the characters have to decide what to do and where they belong. There have been a lot of changes in these people’s lives and some transitions are easier than others. The show itself is also dealing with its […]
Last Week marked the 100th episode of Parks and Recreation and Amy Poehler was finally recognized for her work as Leslie Knope at the Golden Globes Sunday night. Parks and Rec never fails to make me smile. They blend sweet with funny incredibly well, the characters are endearing and hilarious and the show incorporates current […]
Of all the shows that walk the fine line of will-it-or-won’t-it get cancelled, Community is the one I’ll never understand. It’s about as smart a comedy as we get these days, and the lack of acclaim confuses me more than Nicolas Cage’s morality confuses Abed. It suffered from losing it’s vision along with creator Dan […]
