We also fight, break up over a rousing conversation on how edgy Modern Family, Parks and Rec. and Community are. Check this episode out to see if we remain friends!

Tio chimes in with impressions on A Serious Man. Check out the Toy Story 3 trailer that just dropped, we did! We can’t seem to escape talking about Mad Men! At least this time around we’ve all actually seen the first season and rap a little bit on that. Finally we talk about Robert Kirkman’s new book Haunt and Jeff Lemire’s Sweet Tooth – 2nd issue!

Lift our spirits by listening to us discuss our Labor Day “festivities”, thoughts on Extract not being as funny as we anticipated (and how that’s a good thing) and Defying Gravity’s cheese-cake drama and cool space suites.

Rounding off the episode we give a quick nod to Sweet Tooth and Chew, some new ongoing comics that are interesting to say the least!
