Ha!....Cougar Town moved to midseason! [six seasons and a movie!].....Cougartown Abbey...lol!, the UK always give you closure, lol!

Lots of meta refrences and parodys, Goodman was awesome...that speech he gave was menacing!, loved the opening musical intro....good start to the season.

Annie's Boobs!

Great episode, Jeff was amazing after he got monkey-gassed... going to be an interesting season with the impending war against the air-conditioning annex

I don't know how they did it, but that episode was even better than expected! Inspector Spacetime was great, as was the Breaking Bad reference, and the opening number too. But my favourite moment was the awkward looks between everyone when Troy and Abed said they had some news to announce, brilliant!

Also, 'You are the opposite of batman' is my new favourite put-down.

What was the thing near the end about when Britta said about becoming a therapist.

I think the joke was that Britta is not you'd call a 'people person' and yet she wants to become a therapist to help people, the rest of the group just didn't know how to point this out to her.

Was thinking that, just making sure there wasn't something else.

John Goodman was amazing, Chang is back in a position of authority, even Shirley was funny when she was talking to Starburns! I love the idea of the air conditioning repair school annexe. I skipped the musical number though, urgh.

9/10 for me, the only let down was the atrocious song.

Jim Rash in the main credits. Well deserved.

Cracking opener. I missed Annie's boobs.

It was meant to be bad, but has it actually given away the whole season?

Don't think so, the song was just Jeff imagining what life would be like without Pierce in the study group.

Ok start for me. Nothing spectacular. John goodman character could be interesting. Also Chang in charge of security could be good.

I hope this is a strong season, and people get behind it....cos they didnt pull in numbers in america (not even 4 million watched the episode) compared to 28 million that wached the unfunny 2 1/2 men, and respectable 14 million for big bang.

if numbers dont improve......
