Your Favourite Thursday Night Comedy
Last night NBC gave us new episdoes of THE OFFICE, 30 ROCK, SCRUBS and ANDY BARKER P.I.. Which begs the question, which was your favourite show last night and why?
This TV Addict’s pic: 30 ROCK, because Will Arnett (ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT’S Gob Bluth) is officially my new favourite television comedian. Only now, after re-watching the show for its second and third time (weekdays at 5:30 and midnight on CBC) am I fully appreciating the brilliance that was ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT. Can we not get a Gob and Franklin spin-off?
THE OFFICE Returns
What can I say about last night’s episode of THE OFFICE that hasn’t already been brilliantly summarized on OfficeTally, EW, GMMR, TVGuide et al? Simply this:
THE OFFICE proved once again that the show works best as a true ensemble. Unlike some of the season’s weaker episodes, ‘The Negotiation’ wasn’t dominated by one character (ie. Michael or Dwight). Last night, each one of our favourite pencil pushers was given a moment to shine, an unforgettable line, or in the case of Kelly, the best baby name ever.
Download Your Very Own Dunder Mifflin Letterhead
Do you often find yourself inexplicably answering your office line with, “Dunder Mifflin, this is Pam”? Do you wish your cubicle buddy was as much fun as Jim or as crazy as Dwight? Do you step into your office everyday wishing that your bitter and sullen receptionist would somehow magically transform herself into Jenna Fisher? If so, you’re a bona-fide OFFICE addict and this post is for you.
Make your work day speed by with your very own DUNDER MIFFLIN letterhead. Now you too can fax Dwight from the future or write up your own set of “that’s what she said” jokes. Simply click here to download your own copy of the official DUNDER MIFFLIN letterhead (in a word document).
Enjoy, and please use responsibility. theTVaddict.com claims no responsibility should this letterhead lead to you jamming the fax machine, or getting yourself fired for wasting precious company paper.

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS: Only One Episode Left
Does anyone else feel that FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS is wrapping up a few too many story-lines leading up to next weeks season finale?
Don’t get me wrong, I love story-lines that actually pay off and reward viewers that tune in regularly. But I have this sinking suspicion that the FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS writers know something we don’t and as a result have been intentionally tying up stories for fear they won’t be getting a second season (both in the TV and literal sense) to do so.
It’s pretty obvious that Coach Taylor is going to cave into Tami’s demand and turn down the job in Austin. How many universities are there in the United States? Thousands. How many Tami Taylor’s are there? ‘Nuff said.
Jason Street has a new job and possibly a new girlfriend. Frankly, it’s about time the guy caught a break and had some happiness in his life. How great was his smile after he told QB1 Jason that he’ll, “Take care of Julie. I’ll give her a nice call and tell her there’s a new girl in town and that girl is me.”
Moving on to the Panther Roast. Sure it’s a conceit of the show, but I absolutely love how every week in Dillon there’s a new after school event revolving around football. Dance, carnival, rally, bake sale — aside from Buddy Garrity, who in Dillon can afford to attend all these events?
I imagine being a football star in Dillon is the equivalent of being a famous child actor. Incredible while you’re at the top, but somewhat sad to know the highlight of your life was when you were seventeen. No wonder Al Bundy couldn’t stop talking about his four touchdowns at Poke High and Brian Bonsall ended up like this.
That said, the Roast was a ton of fun to watch and a welcome change from the horrifying final minutes of last week’s episode. Tami once again proved why she’s worth turning down the TMU job for and Tim Riggin’s line about Matt and Julie had me rolling on the floor laughing — “How ‘bout Saracen sleeping with the coach’s daughter?” Leave it to Tim to empty out a room.

LIVE Blogging LOST (Episode 15, Season 3)

A SUPERNATURAL Photo Revealed
