The Hamptons episode with the skrinkage lol.I loved to be in the room for when they came up with that plot point.
And how they came up with Bob Sacamano.

Chevy Chase was never part of the writers room for Community

No you wouldn’t. That sounds like hell.
Working with Chevy Chase sounds like the last thing I’d ever want to do.

Exposing someone to the risk of an std without their knowledge and gaining consent to sex under the fraudulent pretense of monogamy seems like it should carry some weight behind it. This is assuming you continue a sexual relationship with the original partner.
It takes a level of sociopathy to hand waive cheating. That's not hyperbole. I'd rather be mugged than be cheated on especially if it was for an extended period of time in a relationship. That can amount to years of your life being fundamentally a lie.

Reply to HBO's Oz is lowkey underrated by BodeineBreezus
Low points were the aging pill, O'Reily's mum working at the prison, and the fact Alvarez managed to avoid death row but Cyril didn't.
Fucking brutal show, though. Without it, The Sopranos wouldn't have happened when it did.

You had the guy also fucking interns. That was probably the final nail in the coffin for them.

Dan and Chevy always get the brunt of it, but Donald Glover and Alison Brie also have enormous egos. Ken Jeong’s is not particularly small either.
Honestly I think the fact that the cast and crew were all so full of themselves is part of what made Community work so well, given that most of the episodes are about the characters getting in fights with each other due to ego.

I think you can kind of tell it's a live studio audience when Fez first appears, He goes to say something but the audience is still going off their heads and he has to wait a bit longer.

Reply to comment by get_the_reference_ in TV Rewind: Edina and Patsy Will Always Be 'Absolutely Fabulous' – 'Absolutely Fabulous' turned 30 in 2022, and though it has had its official swan song, it still feels as fresh and lively as the day it premiered by SanderSo47
The way Patsy cries after Saffy slaps her is seared into my brain.

Sarah Schneider worked at College Humor before her SNL days and I used to produce some of their shorts, it was one of the funniest offices I’ve ever seen, felt like what National lampoon must have been like early on, constant pranks, always some goofy sight gag thing, the whole place was laced with laughter and the smell of weed, that was a very fun place to be and Sarah is exceptionally hilarious

Early season of the Simpson’s. Get to work with Conan, John Swartzwelder, Bill Oakley, Josh Weinstein, and Brent Forrester.
Also 30 Rock would be great.

I'd say D'Argo and Chiana from Farscape (mainly because someone's already said John and Aeryn).
So during a standard body-swap episode they do the obvious thing everyone would do in a body of the opposite gender, and decide they quite like each other. They have a relationship (mostly based on sex) which doesn't get a lot of attention, until Chiana decides to sleep with D'Argo's son (for unknown reasons).
Takes them probably over a season to start getting back together (I can't even recall when it happened), but in the end Chiana is pretty distraught at D'Argo's death.
Just seemed like a good "background" relationship to me.

WWE had this nailed down really good for a year or two, you'd see live interviews happen during commercials on your phone, polls, voting for things to happen on the show in the app, and then one day it just fucking disappeared
