Community, Season 3, Episode 8 “Documentary Filmmaking: Redux” Airs Thursdays, 8pm EST on NBC Before I start my review, let me address the elephant in the room. Yes the show was benched from the January lineup this week and it was a real shame to get that news. While it didn’t come as a huge …
Misfits, Season 3, Episode 3 Airs Sundays, 10pm GMT on E4 Around the time of season 2 something changed within Misfits. Slowly Simon started becoming much more interesting as a character than Nathan.

Community, Season 3, Episode 4: “Remedial Chaos Theory″ Airs Thursdays, 8pm ET on NBC Now this is more like the Community I came to know and love. I’m not going to lie, I have been a little disappointed with the first three episodes of season three and thought that it might be heading in a …
