Oh man, I totally forgot about Futurama, The Big Bang Theory, and Flight of the Conchords. And the West Wing. And North and South (another mini-series).

Oh my god XD I had totally forgotten about the ''Why the face'' joke. I remember laughing so hard at that one... I also watch Glee though I feel the last couple of episodes were pretty awful.

As for Community, my fondest memory is still this:

YouTube - Community - "La Biblioteca" - Abed and Troy Rap

Community!!!!!!! Modern Family! How could I forget? :shocked:

... so even though I feel like I don't watch too much tv, apparently I do.

Also, I prefer tv over most movies any day because a) Hollywood usually sucks b) I have a hard time believing that big movie stars really are their charcaters (all I see are Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz etc) c) tv allows for the development of complicated and deep story lines/characters (ie the masterpiece that is the Wire) in way a lot of movies are unable to do. Obviously, there are a tonne of counter examples but I feel that my points generally hold up.
