Broadcast Order: Season 1, Episode 11

Writer: Laura Gutin
Director: Crystal Chesney-Thompson

Looks like "Math Lab" is finally set to air.
 
Though I was only half watching this week's plot, I did enjoy the It's a Mad, Mad, Mad World-ish plot. It was a good concept to give equal lime lights to each of the main characters. I think the only cringe worthy moments were the talking cats which felt more narm then anything else.
 
This was one of the best episodes so far. I was laughing throughout! Stuart's meth-cooking show was very funny, as was when Larry was anticipating the showcase of the negative effects on drugs and then came...nothing.

10/10.


Great news that Comedy Central's picking up the show. Let's hope they give it a second season.

On tonight's episode, "SpEd"...
 
Saw it, loved it.
That "FOX Legal" joke was pure brilliance.

So many clever quirks in this show and too little of a fanbase to appreciate them. :shrug:
 
Even though how dated jokes about the Nigerian prince scam is (does that one even still exist?!), I loved the twist on it where the prince actually does exist.

One left, folks. One left. :( Let's hope that Comedy Central's hopeful pickup results in a DVD release...

Here it is, friends. The very last "Sit Down, Shut Up" to air. In "High School Musical Musical" (no, seriously)...
 
Where was the Arrested reference? The jokes in this show fly so fast, I miss about half of them.

This was the 11th episode produced. I believe the last episode produced production order wise was Tackin'.
 
In the wrap party scene towards the beginning, Larry comments that they don't want to be "stuck in arrested development." Ennis responds, "not for at least three years", which is how long AD was on the air.

Good episode, though I honestly liked Ennis' plot more than the Andrew one, which was a little underwhelming. Looks like they had already cast Chenoweth by the time they wrote this script, seeing as they not only had her singing, but referenced her Broadway background.

That's it for now, folks! Now we just sit and wait until it gets picked up by Comedy Central to moans of haters until they actually have a chance to watch these nine and go, "Gee, this isn't so bad!" I hope that means DVD release!...
 
Hey, guys. Even though no new episodes have been ordered and there's that pending Comedy Central deal coming, it seems that SDSU will continue to air reruns at midnight on FOX for the rest of the season.

From the FOX midseason schedule:



Interesting....
