I don't know why the Get On Your Feet thing had me laughing so much, but hilarious.

I love this episode - the stuff with Ben was hilarious. The Low Cal Calzone Zone and his claymation flick, that he emailed Leslie about and compared it to Avatar, were totally genius.... then the Ice Rink scene happened and I lost my shit...I was howling with laughter and crying. I love this show so much.

I got into a coughing fit and had to pause the DVR when the song came on after Pistol Pete fell. I mean, how could that have been funnier??

Holy crap this was funny. Every time that music started I lost it. The claymation piece. The look on Ben's face when he expected it to look like Avatar and be longer! Not enough red carpet. This show is too much. So glad it's back.

The 2 second claymation scene and Ben's disappointment was hilarious.

I didn't know this was coming back last night and just happened to be flipping channels and caught it. Man that was a nice surprise.

Great episode. Hilarious stuff.

This show is awesome, second only to Community in my book. I used to hate Amy Poehler with a passion and she's now in my top five of women I'd like to fuck. Of course I'd have to ask my wife first but I'm sure she'd be cool with it.

Still love that band and all of Kay's work since they split. Never got to see them live though.

On Up All Night they mentioned a Better Than Ezra shirt. Both things stuck in my head when my daughter's diaper mishap ruined a nearly 20 year old Black Flag shirt today.

Same here, man. There was a ton of hilarious shit in this episode, but the look on Andy's face when he was busting up was what really killed me.

Every time that snippet of the song came on, I laughed my butt off.

I'm not sure there is an example of better comedic timing than the use of that song in this episode.

Have to echo everyone else here, Andy laughing at Pete and then the sound clip - makes me laugh out loud thinking about it now.

I actually kept it on my always overcrowded dvr for a few days just to watch that sequence. (...like I used to do with the office...)
