You know how much we love lists here at UnderScoopFire. So I brainstormed and tried to find a list no one has covered. I scoured the interwebs and came up with nothing.

Netflix and Arrested Development ran a contest recently, having fans submit potential taglines for the poster seen below. There were some great entries (that can be seen on their Facebook page), but none so perfectly captured the feel of the almost-moment combined with an in-joke quite like this one: Some honorable mentions include: “The Mother(boy) [...]

There are many great things about being young and single: drinking, being hung over, pissing through money to name a few.

We’ve mentioned them before- the classic TV tropes that we’ve all come to know and love. Nestled among the “visit from the in-laws”, “loss of a job” and “keep the bad grades a secret” episodes of 70s, 80s and 90s television was the marijuana episode. How each show tackled the subject varied greatly- mainly based [...]

I’ll admit it, I don’t fit in here. All of my new UnderScoopFire colleagues are all things 80s children, whereas I’m a 90s kid. Even when I was watching Nick at Nite in the 1990s to try and catch some glimmer of television history before me, the closest I got was Mork & Mindy [...]

This week’s “Table 34” seemed like a cryptic episode title. It didn’t seem to address the fallout after [SPOILER ALERT] Nick and Jess’ big kiss in the previous episode but surprisingly, the episode tackled it with the perfect combination of realism, the kind of “adorkiness” the show is known for, and its hilarious one-liners.
