SitCombat: 4/12/12

30 Rock has forged a SitCombat dynasty in recent weeks. Tina Fey and company have racked up a half-dozen consecutive victories with no end in sight. The wrap of Archer and the repeated re-runs (is the redundant?) by the Office … Continue reading

SitCombat: 4/5/12

30 Rock’s stranglehold on SitCombat continued with a fifth straight win on March 29th.  The absence of Archer following the completion of its third season has removed much of the competition (and, so far, suspense) from SitCombat. The Office has … Continue reading

SitCombat: 3/29/12

30 Rock has won an unprecedented four consecutive weeks of SitCombat. The Office had been red-hot for the middle part of the season, but a recent swoon has seen 30 Rock and Archer benefit from the Office’s decent but unspectacular … Continue reading

SitCombat: 3/22/12

30 Rock has triumphed three consecutive weeks and isn’t making things any easier on the competition this time around.  The venerable NBC show has two all-new episodes tonight. Still, it’s far from a given that 30 Rock will make it four in … Continue reading

I’m skipping the first night of the NCAA tournament to write a review of three sitcoms, so I’m going to dispense with the preamble this week. It’s only fair. I’ll just point out that 30 Rock is riding a two-week … Continue reading

SitCombat: 3/8/12

Last week’s compliment of shows was one of the strongest since I’ve been running this little recurring feature.  The Office came in THIRD with a B-plus.  Archer put together probably one of its two best episodes of the season, yet … Continue reading

SitCombat 3/1/12

The Office has hit an unexpected stride with a bifurcated workforce.  The NBC demographic powerhouse has won two consecutive weeks despite the fact that half of the employees of the titular place of business have been in Tallahassee.  The show … Continue reading

SitCombat: 2/23/12

The Office turned in an outstanding episode with last week’s “Tallahassee,” topping solid efforts from 30 Rock and Archer in the process.  Will Jim, Dwight, and company be able to turn in another superior episode with the workforce divided?  Will … Continue reading

SitCombat: 2/16/12

A convincing victory by 30 Rock last week reinforced the balance among the three shows we’ve seen so far this year.  There hasn’t been one show that’s dominated so far this year. In fact, I don’t think any of the … Continue reading

SitCombat: 2/9/12

The Office scored its first victory of the year with a humorous tale of responsibility-avoidance, while Archer hit a minor bump in the road after a very strong start to the season.  30 Rock was solid as usual, but that … Continue reading
