Not even good enough for Carmen Electra to get the wings of an Emmy.
I'm just going to hope Fox lets the show run through this season at the least. Anything beyond that is a bonus for me.

Now did the dvd sell really well though? If so, that and the awards are the only hope for this show though it is the best out there right now. I think one problem is it takes a few shows to get into the characters since the show is a little more complex than most comedy out there. I tried a couple of episodes in the 2nd season last year when people told me to watch it. I really didn't enjoy it much but went out and bought season 1 dvd b/c of the word of mouth. Now I love it and after watching those 2nd season episodes again, they were great and I just didn't know what was going on at the time and that is why *I didn't enjoy it.
*This is not meant to explain why others didn't like it but I'm sure it is a factor for some people.

I hope ratings go up a bit tonight. I know CBS is really trying to dominate the comedy department, but I hope some people wise up and tune into Fox...really, they've got an incredible monday night line up (Arrested, Kitchen Confidential, Prison Break), and i'm starting to worry that a few of these shows will get axed... Back onto topic, I can't wait to see Charlize tonight, should be great.

I wonder if the fake "next time on" segments are gone for good. Probably trying to not confuse new viewers and actually show scenes from the next ep.
Pretty good episode. I didn't laugh as much as last week but this was more of a set-up epsiode for the Charlize storyline.

This episode seemed incredibly bizarre (by AD standards) to me. The laughs that were there were very good, but it did seem it was an episode meant much more to set up future episodes than to be funny in its own right.

Go Kuzak! They should have put him in a gorilla costume though.
Loved the Bond take-off. Speaking of 'take off,' great to see Dave Thomas, eh.
