The butthole flag at Greendale Community College is flying at half mast today.
By now, I am sure that you’re aware that @nbc has announced that Community is not part of their midseason schedule. They say that the show is not canceled - but doesn’t that really just mean “not yet?”
It really is a shame that a show so unique and innovative can’t draw an audience - but it’s probably the uniqueness of the show that is to blame for its small audience.
That and the fact that it is on NBC.

Was This Awesome #Superman Blanket.

Seriously, if you are not watching this show, then you are missing out on one of the most suspenseful, bizzare, horrific, frightening, and awesome television shows on the air right now.
I like to think that Glee is suffering because its creators are putting all their focus here. I’m sure that’s not true - but after watching four episodes (and catching up on number five tonight) I’m craving for more.
That’s when I know I’m hooked.
Already renewed for a second season, check out American Horror Story if you haven’t yet. If you have - tell me what you think!

Tonight marks one of those bittersweet moments in the life (or lack there of) of a fan for a television show. The show you love is finally back for a new season - but you know going in that it is going in that this is it. This is the end.
Tonight that show is Chuck.
I don’t have much time to write this tonight but I just wanted to say something about a show that has brought me and my friends a lot of fun over the last 4 seasons (tonight starts Chuck’s fifth and final season).
This is the one show left that I still get together with my buddy for every week - and that’s why I don’t have much time to type. I have to quickly walk my dog, eat dinner, and head over to my friend’s house…For the first of the last.
It’s funny looking back to the beginning - realizing just how much has changed with the show.
But one thing has never changed - Chuck doesn’t take itself seriously. It’s a comedy show above all. And while it pokes fun at the spy/action genre, it does it with a quality that makes it an actual great addition to that genre.
That’s all I’m going to say for now - just happy to have Chuck and all his friends back….
For one final season!

As I mentioned before, I’m excited about DC Comics’ New 52. To honor this major change in DC Comics (at least at this point it seems pretty major), I’ve decided to read all 52 of the new….52. Some I may like, some may love, some I may pretty much hate.
I am sure there will be more than a few that I won’t read again, but I want to give these 52 titles a try even if it’s just so I can say years from now, “Yeah, I read all of those…”
So here is the full list of the relaunched titles, with the dates they are released. The crossed out ones are obviously the ones I’ve already read - and I’ll updating this post as I go along.
Anyone else out there doing this?

I am a comic book fan - but not really a comic book aficionado. So what does this major DC Comics reboot, affectionately known as “The New 52”, mean to me?

Well, this past week I became one of those people. An iPad owner. An iPad is one of those things that I’ve always wanted but figured I’d never have because I just couldn’t justify spending that kind of money. However, getting one is a gift pretty much takes away the need to justify anything.
So, here I am. An iPad owner.
