I'm just catching up on P&R, midway through season 3 now. Considering its on 2 different networks, I'm suprised how many people from The League I've seen make appearances on P&R. First they had Andre in season 2 as the Kaboom guy, and now in season 3 I saw my boy Ruxin as Dou*che from the Pawnee radio show, followed up by Rafi the next ep as Tom's fav cologne guy. I wonder what the connection is there. Does Universal own FX?

On a side note, on P&R I just saw the ep where Swanson goes on a bender with Tammy & gets his hair corn-rowed. Could be my favourite P&R ep of all-time. Classic!

The guy that plays Andre and Aziz Ansari started out together doing a sketch show for MTV called "Human Giant". Wouldn't be surprised if we eventually see an Aziz cameo on the league.

The second season of The League has been pretty bad.

I wouldn't say bad, but 'meh' is more like it. Season 1's 6 episodes totally triumph Season 2.

One can only hope. Everything needs more Tom Haverford. I actually kinda want to see 30 Minutes or Less now, even though I know its crappy, just because he's in it and I hear he kinda steals the show. Man that guy makes me laugh. Love his buddy Jean-Ralfio too, that's the all-time greatest Dbag name.

They should somehow do a crossover just so Jean-Ralfio and Rafi can hang out at the club. That'd be deadly.

Season 2 isn't quite as good as the first season, but it did include my new favourite insult "Ride my suck stick", so it can't be considered bad.

Whatever...I think it's a bad sign when my eyes continuously wander to what I'm studying. Haven't laughed out loud since episode 2 of season 2.

The actor who plays Raffi was in Parks and Rec. He played the ######bag cologne creator who was launching his new scent at Tom's club.

I thought the first few episodes of season 2 were weak, but the last few were great. Thought the christmas episode was hilarious

Just thought I'd bump this seeing as the season premiere is tonight. Just got into the show over the summer and am now completely caught up, pretty pumped for it. Especially Dirty Mike aka Seth Rogan making his first appearance tonight. What's not to love?

So did anyone watch the premiere last night? I thought it was a great start to the season, I'd say their best premiere to this point in the show's abbreviated life. Ruxin getting the ring was pretty classic, and while the Shuffle thing was a little forced, it was still pretty funny. MJD was a surprise. So many good one-liners too, I laughed pretty hard when they were chirping Andre about his creepy outfit:

"So do you consider yourself more of a rapist who likes to do magic tricks, or a magician who rapes people?"

The fisting with Ruxins ring was historical.

That guy makes me laugh so hard. Love when he just whips his beer can at the library wall. Need to get him in as many episodes as possible. Him & Ruxin are definitely my 2 favs on that show.

Oh yeah another good quote from last night, bang bang what the hang!

Episode wasn't anything special last night, but I loved Andre's one line about vulturing: "You're the Tolbert of my life!"

As a Ryan Mathews owner, I LOL'd

Just saw last night that CTV has picked up "The League" and showing it Monday nights at 11:30pm for those of us without FX.

Last night was the Seasons 3 Premier so they are a couple of weeks behind still.

And that Shiva Bowl music video was hilarious. Nice to see Jon Lajoie with a bigger part. He's most of the reason I started watching the series.

CTV is just previewing FX shows before it hits Canada at the end of the month.

They will probably butcher the fx shows through censorship. Can you imagine sons of anarchy (my favorite show and an fx show) censored?

The creators and executive producers of the league are doing an AMA on reddit for anyone interested.
