Over to NBC for the comedies!

Another great episode this week! Lots of funny moments, including the creep-tastic Human Beings mascot. That culturally neutral thing is going to haunt my dreams. It was nice to learn a little more about Troy and see him do more than a couple of one liners in an episode. As it turns out this episode was actually supposed to air earlier in the season, which would have made perfect sense – but it worked here alright as well.




The best exchange of the night had to have been the following between Jeff and Troy:

Jeff: I’m saying you’re a football player! It’s in your blood.
Troy: That’s racist.
Jeff: Your soul?
Troy: That’s racist.
Jeff: Your… eyes?
Troy: That’s gay.
Jeff: That’s homophobic.
Troy: That’s black.
Jeff: That’s racist.
Troy: Damn!

This one came in at a close second for me:


Jeff: I'm not having a conversation with someone who emerges from a bush.
Britta: Because I'm right?
Jeff: No. Because I'm not in a commercial for breakfast cereal.

Any time Will Arnett shows up on our TV we know we’re in for something awesome, and this was no disappointment. In this weeks episode Jack sets out to design a better microwave and ends up turning it into a car by accident, Tracy (and everyone other man in NYC) is made at Liz for her Dealbreaker book, and Jenna disappears to Iceland to film a werewolf movie (to punish Liz for looking for a new cast member) – perfect plan except for the fact that Iceland only has 1 minute of darkness this time of year. Oh and loved that the porn actress from Nalin' Palin played Liz's porn alter ego.




Best quotes of the night:

“Blammo! Another successful interaction with a man!” – Liz

“I have mercury poisoning. From obsessively taking my rectal temperature.” – Jenna (nice burn to the Pivs.)

"A book hasn't caused me this much trouble since Where's Waldo went to that barber pole factory.” – Tracy

"The only headline will be 'Donaghy Saves GE, comma, Marries Your Mom." – Jack


Devon: You'd have to take it. I'd make you. I'd make you take it all.
Jack: I'd roll over and let you give it to me.
Devon: I'm honestly not trying to make this sound gay.
Jack: No one is, it's just happening.


 
PS: We are half-way through Parks and Recreations. We'll be finishing that one off tonight!
