INTERRUPTION!

I'm taking a break from my regularly scheduled post to say this.

WATCH COMMUNITY ON NBC.

NBC is run by a cadre of idiots seemingly set on bringing the network down in flames. The only two good things they've done in recent years is greenlight 30 Rock and Community. 30 Rock has ignited in me a huge crush on Tina Fey, and I hated her on Saturday Night Live. Though in retrospect, it was probably the show I hated.

Community, however, has pulled ahead to be one of the best shows on network TV in a very long time. It has only been one season but it has been a fantastic season, something you'd probably see just as a show is hitting it's stride after a few years, but this is the very first year. The cast and crew is amazing.

The most recent episode, Modern Warfare, had countless homages to action movies from the last three decades and they crammed it into 22 minutes. And they did it very well. They managed to put in a Mother's Day plot that didn't feel forced and advanced two characters in a way I wasn't seeing. No spoilers, just watch it. The episode is up on Hulu. WATCH IT. That animated picture up there is the Mexican Standoff scene the main characters have in a bathroom. No explaining. Watch it. You will not regret it.
