I Can See Why My Own Worst Enemy Was Cancelled post a comment
So after finding out that My Own Worst Enemy was canned after just nine episodes, I finally decided to watch that series premiere that had I had gotten through a thoroughly legal means. It wasn’t all that bad, but I can see why NBC made their decision.
The Office, “Customer Survey” post a comment
Season 5 episode 6. Wow, it has been a long time since my last episode recap. But I am back in (small) force with one of the best scenes of the series. Here, we see Michael helping Jim and Dwight improve their sales pitches to their clients after they receive poor customer reviews.
A Travesty of Epic Proportions 1 comment
Remember my Nuttin’ But Stringz post way back when? They made it top the Top 5 acts of America's Got Talent! Unfortunately, they landed in third place while Neal “Meatball” Boyd landed in first.
Unbelievable! No one sings like that anymore. I think this Jerry-Kramer conversation from the episode "The Opera" sums it up pretty well:
KRAMER: So, what do you think?
JERRY: About what?
KRAMER: About the opera.
JERRY: Nah, I don’t wanna go.
KRAMER: You gotta go.
JERRY: I-I-I don’t like the opera. What are they singing for? Who sings? You got something to say, say it!
KRAMER: Jerry, you don’t understand, that’s the way they talk in Italy. They sing to one another. (Kramer starts to sing in bad Italian.)
JERRY: All right, all right.
KRAMER: That’s the way it was, you know. You listen to the language, its got that sing songy quality. It’s the language Jerry, the language.
JERRY: So why don’t they talk like that now?
KRAMER: Well its, uh, well its too hard to keep up, you know. They were tired.
We’re tired of your singing, Neal!

I’m not sure why, but the television shows I watch look very similar…proof after the break. And, oh, the following picture has nothing to do with anything.
The Office, “Branch Closing” post a comment
Season 3 episode 7. Jan delivers bad news to Michael that the Scranton branch of Dunder Mifflin is slated for closure. This leads Michael on a quest to keep up the staff’s spirits up. Meanwhile, everyone tries to imagine what their lives will be like in the wake of the close.
Next episode: Dwight vs. Andy! Sounds like Hobbit trouble to me. “Right now, the title of Michael’s book is, Something Weird is Going On. Colon, What Did Jan Say? The Michael Scott Story. By Michael Scott…With Dwight Schrute.”
