<\/a><\/p>\nPeirce really hit his stride in this episode.\u00a0 It’s incredibly easy to write him as a clown, but giving him a bit of conviction was a great way to strengthen the character while keeping the laughs coming.\u00a0 He’s bigoted, sure, but he’s not trying to be mean.\u00a0 The roundtable of unintentional bigotry at the beginning of the episode may be his funniest moment in the show so far.<\/p>\n
The junior college bucket list started out strong, with Abed smashing a guitar ‘Animal House’ style and moving on from there.\u00a0 It didn’t have the best follow through, but it did create a reason for the great song at the end that included the lyrics, “I hate science unless it helps me build a robot.”<\/p>\n
Jeff and Britta fighting with the high school kids started out really funny, but escalated into a pretty childish “duh” war towards the end.\u00a0 I love that they took a page from the ‘Always Sunny’ playbook of revenge by sleeping with someone’s mother.<\/p>\n
Parks and Recreation ’94 Meetings’<\/h4>\n
‘Parks and Recreation’ had some really amazing moments this week.\u00a0 While Leslie’s quest to prevent the destruction of a historic gazebo wasn’t too thrilling, the segments with Andy, April and Ann taking on meetings for Ron were brilliant. April and Ron are great together in the show.\u00a0 They’ve both got the same “I don’t care about anything” vibe, and they’ve each got their own emotional weak points.\u00a0 ’94 Meetings’ really allowed us to see the range of each of these characters.<\/p>\n When Andy and Ann get roped into taking meetings for Ron, it makes for some great comedy.\u00a0 Andy immediately caving to any good cause, but still trying to avoid saying yes was clever. \u00a0The instant “does this look weird to you?” that came after Ann revealed that she was a nurse\u00a0 – a trend that continued throughout the episode \u2013 was a gag that really worked<\/p>\n The story featuring Leslie and the gazebo was somewhat uneventful, but good for a few laughs at least.\u00a0 Tom’s minute long cologne bath and the absolutely disturbing painting hung in the mansion were highlights.<\/p>\n The end, with April’s oh so sweet family and horrible nickname was a nice revelation.\u00a0 Pairing up April and Ron is the smartest thing the show’s ever done.<\/p>\n Let’s start with the good.\u00a0 Dwight trying to get Kelly into a minority executive training program was great.\u00a0 His attempts to be the puppet master always are.\u00a0 It quickly backfired of course, in the way that such plans always do.<\/p>\n Gabe’s inclusion still feels tacked on.\u00a0 He’s like Toby, but without all the funny.\u00a0 He served his purpose in the episode, playing the straight man to the others, but One of the best moments in the episode was when Dwight was pitching the minority executive training program to Stanley and Oscar.\u00a0 Erin, in the background, observing and commenting on the proceedings was a great touch.<\/p>\n There were some really funny moments in the episode, but Michael Scott is just getting tough to watch.\u00a0 He used to be a lovable loser, but it’s really getting out of hand.\u00a0 It’s past not understanding social etiquette at this point.<\/p>\n Who would actually try and kiss a woman he’s only met once before, and in a business meeting no less?\u00a0 Who would, after getting turned down on the kiss, proceed to take a breath mint from her hand with his mouth?\u00a0 I found myself getting angry at Pam for egging him on too.\u00a0 One of the many voices of reason should really have suggested asking her out before trying to make out with her in an office setting.<\/p>\n It wouldn’t have been so bad if the episode had ended with Michael failing.\u00a0 A woman came into his life, used him for a discount on some printers, and then just as suddenly left.\u00a0 But for some reason he succeeded.\u00a0 His lack of social graces apparently won her over, apparently.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nThe Office ‘Body Language’<\/h4>\n
