Daniels' character is starting to get pretty annoying "omg he's going to change the Internet now!"

My only real problem with this show is that every character knows EVERYTHING. Oh thats the geometric symbol for incongruent, oh that person was a french actress from the 1900s, no that play is ____ you were thinking of _____. I mean i am a trivia buff and pride my self on knowing a wide range of topics but these people would all have to be Mensa.


I literally had the exact same thought. Actually, my thought was more along the lines of "This is the smartest group of MFers on the planet."

I just think its quite convenient that each episode one of the Characters happens to har a friend, or relative, or ex neighbor, or someone who happens to be directly involved with that particular episodes conflict.

I agree, I love this show despite what the "Know-it-alls" on this site say.

Tonight was a good episode. As unrealistic and too precious as it may be, the dialogue between Mac and Will cracks me up for some reason. Maybe because they're among the few characters on tv who are clever and don't happen to be in their fricking twenties.

I enjoyed it. I love how Don is just enough a-hole to still be categorically an a-hole, but is that borderline lovable a-hole.

FTR, I'm calling that Maggie gets left out in the cold. Jim ends up with her roommate and Don ends up with Sloan (or just not with Maggie).

Probably, but eventually they'll get together. Although I thought that about Donna and Josh from WW, but they didnt.

Right before Santos got elected.

You should go back and watch those seasons. Still very good TV.
