TV week of 2/4

So I'm not gonna lie, I didn't watch much TV this week. I did, however, enjoy what I did watch.

The first thing was Monday, The Big Bang Theory. I've loved this show for a while; I find it quite funny. The character of Sheldon Cooper is especially hilarious. This weeks episode was superb. Sheldon, in the process of trying to deduce why electrons behave as though they have no mass under certain conditions, didn't get any sleep for three days. Hilarity ensued. I really recomend this one, it was probably the funniest episode yet of this emerging powerhouse of a comedy.

Next up was American Idol of course. Again, I'm not feeling this season. It just seems gimmicky to me and it's not the talent show that it used to be. On the up side, only one more week until the debut of Ellen. Let's hope it gets better.

Next up is Thursday night comedy on ABC. All four shows (community, parks and recreation, the office, and 30 rock) were excellent as always. The Office was especially entertaining yet again. I feel like the show has finally returned to its winning form after a rocky season and a half. The episodes around the time of the writer's strike (before and after) were pretty poor, but the show is now returning to its full stride. This weeks episode centered around a Dunder Mifflin - Sabre merger and the unfavorable changes that it brought. It was very funny and didn't try too hard to be profound. The show isn't trying to be overly serious anymore and is just being funny, the thing that it does best.

Last and also least is the superbowl commercials special that played before AI on Wednesday. Not only were the hosts completely fake in their demeanor, but they also made tons of pathetic attempts at humor. The actual meat of the show, the top ten commercials of the decade, did little to remedy the shell that they were wrapped in. I'll pass on this one from now on.

Thanks for readin and enjoy the snow!
