(no subject)

So, I'm watching the season finale of The Office - because Catherine Tate (Donna Noble - Doctor Who) is supposed to be guest-starring on it (not for everyone else - which includes Jim Carrey, Will Arnett, James Spader, Kathy Bates, etc.), and I see one of the kids I went to undergrad with pop up as a supervising producer. He was a stand-up comedian in 1990s playing low-life comedy clubs then switched to sitcom writing.

And when did James Spader get paunchy and old?

As an aside The Community's season finale was far more creative and funnier than The Big Bang Theory's which was incredibly cliche. Odd, considering all season long I laughed harder at Big Bang. Sitcoms...they really an inconsistent breed.
