Season Finale: How I Met Your Mother – “Challenge Accepted”

“Challenge Accepted” May 16th, 2011 Considering that this entire season of How I Met Your Mother has been built around an absolutely terrible metaphor, I think it’s only fair that we try to consider what exact challenge this season of … Continue reading

Glee – “Furt”

“Furt” November 23rd, 2010 In what was generally considered to be the “end” of the series’ bullying arc, Glee becomes self-aware. Its characters realize that they are in an after school special about bullying, and that they need to do … Continue reading

Season (Series?) Finale: Party Down – “Constance Carmell Wedding”
