On the bright side, it's not like Jack wants to burn down a church. That would be more death metal, I think. And while stealing a statue from a church is metal, what about dining with the statue afterwards? That may be more klezmer, maybe? Right-click to save the GIF. I most certainly do not…
The season premiere of Season 2 takes the teacher-class relationship to a different level. Jack delivers the goods for his students, showing he cares for them and hopefully shifting the tone from antagonistic to something more collaborative, if still vengeful and bizarre. I especially love Sarika's positive reaction at being called "formidable", though I'm also…
https://youtu.be/wu61DZzvKfc Still my favorite character on the show and here are some reasons why.
Sending his students out to work and gather research for his happiness book takes its toll. Anthony's "Don't even bro" was delivered perfectly. Sarika remains astounding in that mail carrier outfit. And Heather shows that she even has her limits when it comes to pleasing the boss. Longer version of GIF found here. Right-click to…
Durbin tries to handle the copier situation with an unusual announcement. The reaction from the school is what one would expect, but Durbin and Helen are proud enough to attempt a fist-bump. Sort of.

Jack discovers the secret to happiness and pours it on Marcus' glasses. The question for me is, is happiness about mayonnaise or torturing Marcus? Probably both. Right-click to save the GIF. I most certainly do not claim copyright to the material being GIF’d, I’m just doing this as a fan.
The new season of AP Bio started last night and it was a lot of fun. On the one hand, I kept wondering where Colin, Devin, and Dan Decker were, on the other hand I was glad to see a focus on new students Eduardo and "new girl" (who I noticed last season, especially when…

The clip episode reaches epic heights when the Gang reminisces when they were living in New York in the 1990s and held a certain contest... The show did an astounding job of recreating the Seinfeld set and looks - it's too bad we didn't really get enough of Frank as George Costanza, but the others…
The close of this episode sees a convenient deus ex machina return an Eddie Bauer Range Rover to Dennis - and somehow, the entire gang back to their old status quo. I love how Dennis is blissful and happy while the others are damaged and shellshocked. Somehow, that seems right - and thematically, closes the…
After Dennis' devious and masterful turn last episode, "The Gang Gets New Wheels" finds him not quite his usual self. The reason? His Range Rover got blown up at the end of Season 12 and he can't replace it. The Gang did a great job on it, though! Right-click to save the GIF. I most…
As great as Mac grabbing Dee was this episode, this was far and away the best and funniest scene - and perhaps the most quintessentially Dennis, even moreso than the Dennis Doll. The plan, his need to lecture, and the sociopathic delivery of the punchline is perfect. Right-click to save the GIF. I most certainly…
Dee finally makes her way out of Dennis' private escape room - but does so in an unexpectedly dangerous way. I love how her anger afterward gives way to delight when she becomes the hero of the evening. And the steak is making me hungry... Right-click to save the GIF. I most certainly do not…
The gang locks Dee in Dennis' bedroom and she finds out he has his own kinky Escape Room game for the women he tries to... well, "seduce" may not be the word. "Implicate" maybe? Dee's reaction is particularly hilarious, from fear to anger to frustration. Right-click to save the GIF. I most certainly do not…
And just like Pinocchio, the Dennis doll seems to transform into a real boy! With that, we're back to the status quo for the gang and the show. Much as I love Mindy Kaling's performance and the potential Cindy offered, this is very much in keeping with the spirit of the show - its refusal…
As we continue Fun And Games Month, we move from one refreshing dip in the pool... to something far creepier and disturbing. And yet, Jack seems to be completely at peace, so who’s to say? Long version of GIF found here. Right-click to save the GIF. I most certainly do not claim copyright to the…
Martial arts lesson in school? Great PE Class! Your AP Bio teacher karate chopping you? A little scarier. Good thing Sarika was hiding her textbook! Right-click to save the GIF. I most certainly do not claim copyright to the material being GIF’d, I’m just doing this as a fan.
