The Boss Baby (2017)

20171218:
I initially didn't know what to make of this movie, but it took shape and I eventually enjoyed it.

Boss Baby (Alec Baldwin)

With that being said, I still had to overlook the strange indecision between fiction and reality. To elaborate, initially the movie seemed to establish that the entire story was imagined by the protagonist Tim Templeton. However, there were moments where the movie seemed to go beyond this premise. I could, however, be wrong.

Tim (Miles Bakshi)

Overall, I would have trouble recommending this film to anyone. Actually, the movie would be suited to adults who are having a second child. On a related note, this movie seems to have complicated story compared to other computer-animated movies more fitting of adults than children, like Inside Out.

Netflix determined the movie for me as a 98% match. I decided to give the movie neither a thumbs up nor a thumbs down.

Francis Francis (Steve Buscemi)

That intro with the baby that's different from the other babies is cute.
That is how babies are.
Gandalf alarm clock.

Triplets (Eric Bell Jr.)

The border between imagination and reality.
Fly you fools.
The baby corrects his brother, Lennon and McCartney, but Tim says "You don't even know their names."
Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots
Indiana Jones

Dad (Jimmy Kimmel), Tim, and Mom (Lisa Kudrow)

Mouse Trap
Mary Poppins: "practically perfect in every way."
Aim for failure and... aim away from failure!
Called it: "Blackbird" to get the baby down.

Staci (ViviAnn Yee)

Of course he comes back.
Ah nice ending. Especially with the boss baby sister.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

20171218:
Star Wars: The Last Jedi had some magical moments, but the story felt unsatisfying. First, I was confused why Holdo didn't tell Poe her plan. Second, I didn't believe what Kylo said about Rey's parentage; if it was true, it wasn't convincing.

Regardless, I probably would have watched this movie even if it were terrible, because it's part of such an epic universe.

Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill)

In the end, the movie is rough around the edges, and might be too long in the wrong places, but I still think it's worth seeing.

Trailers: Avengers: Infinity Wars (2018), Early Man (2018), Rampage (2018), Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018), Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018), The Greatest Showman (20189), A Wrinkle in Time (2018).

[20180303 Edit]

20181024:
Initially I was thinking about doing just a screenshot viewing, but 18 minutes into the movie and I definitively changed my mind.

Leia Organa (Carrie Fisher)

Watching it today, I found the movie had a strong start but eventually became sluggish after the Kylo Ren and Rey fight.

With respect to my previous entry (20171218), I was able to understand Holdo's actions during this viewing as well as understand the message behind Rey's parentage.

On 20181024, Netflix determined the movie for me as a 98% match. I decided to give the movie neither a thumbs up nor a thumbs down.

20190317:
Today, I put The Last Jedi on television for my dad. I saw parts of it.

Rey (Daisy Ridley)

Instant Comments:
2: Huh. I didn't think about it the first time, but a strategy built around those slow bombers seems disastrous. Not only are the bombers slow, but their vulnerability is terrible.
2: Snoke can use his force powers from a distance...
2: "You must have a thousand questions." "Where's Rey?"
2: A seemingly epic moment and he tosses the saber behind him.
2: Leia most definitely channeled the force there.

Kylo Ren (Adam Driver)

2: Haha! "Go go go go. Woooo!" - stable boy.
2: I didn't catch what Yoda said: "Oh Skywalker. Missed you, have I."
2: In context, the scene where DJ explains to Finn about business. I begin to think that this is just one of many topics which this movie addresses. However, I'm not sure I want to think about such topics while watching a Star Wars film.
1: Plot twist: Finn fails to deactivate whatever it was he needed to deactivate.
2: Why does Stoke want Skywalker?

Finn (John Boyega)

2: When I first watched the movie, I didn't believe that Snoke really died. But today I read various tidbits that suggest it's actually true; barring some stupid plot twist. However, the main reason given is the story is going in a certain direction and it doesn't revolve around Snoke, so there's no reason to keep him alive.
2: How did Rose rise to such a big authoritative position? (Poe asks her about munitions or something rather.)
2: The visual of red contrasting with white is amazing.
1: Millenium Falcon

Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac)

1: Porgs
2: This theme song (as Chewie navigates the Millenium Falcon through the canyon). What's it's name? What a classic.
2, 3: How did Rose intercept Finn if the speeders have about constant speed and she had already begun retreating? [Equally perplexing is that Finn brings her back]
3: Luke gives Leia the dice. At that moment, she knows.
3: C3P0 says, "Master Luke" and Luke winks. C3P0 probably knows too.
2: Haha. Luke brushes his shoulder off. 3: Hehehe, I love that shoulder brush.
3: Ah, Kylo Ren moves the ground with his feet and reveals red, but Luke didn't.
1: Awesome final battle with Luke
2, 3: "And I will not be the last Jedi."

Rose Tico (Kelly Marie Tran)

2: "See you around kid." - Luke to Kylo Ren (a line which Han Solo normally says)
2: A two-star system.
1: Little boy is force sensitive. [20180303: This suggests that truly anyone can be force sensitive and become a hero. In particular, it would align with the possibility that Rey did not come from a previous Star Wars family name. With that being said, despite what Kylo said, I still think she's either a Skywalker or a Kenobi. Actually, I still wish she was Kylo's twin sister, in partial keeping of Jacen and Jaina Solo in Star Wars Legends]

Credits:
2: Interesting, while Rey seems to be the bigger character with more screen time, Kylo Ren precedes her in the credits. Of course Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher precede both on account of seniority, but I don't see why Adam Driver (Kylo Ren) should precede Daisy Ridley (Rey). Was it also seniority?

Luke gives Rey the first out of three lessons: the Force is everywhere, and no one owns it, not even the Jedi.

2: Oh. Maz Kanata is played by Lupita Nyong'o, who later played Nakia in Black Panther.

Kevin Hart: What Now? (2016)

20171211, 20171212:
When I first started this special, I was surprised to see a comedy spy story preface the actual special. In the end, I actually enjoyed the spy portion much more than the actual special itself.

Kevin Hart

My lack of enjoyment for the special may have been to one or a combination of the following factors:
1) I've never seen Kevin Hart perform a special before.
2) I've never seen a single Kevin Hart movie.
3) I'm not entirely a fan of his style of humor.
4) His style of humor seemed dependent on delivery and his energy.*
5) Excessive and/or forced references to earlier jokes.

Sold out stadium.

Overall, if you enjoy humor that's based on a lot of energy or already a fan of Kevin Hart and his style of humor, then you'll probably enjoy Kevin Hart: What Now? However, if neither of the previous two conditions apply, then perhaps it's just better to stay away.

Netflix determined the special for me as a 82% match. I decided to give the special neither a thumbs up nor a thumbs down.

*I love how he brings so much energy to his performance. That doesn't necessarily make his jokes funny, but I commend him for it all the same.

Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

20171208:
This movie was hilarious. I enjoy the funnier Marvel movies more than the serious Marvel movies. In particular, I enjoyed Iron Man (2008), Ant-Man, and Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017).

This movie had some epic battles. 9:41PM PT

Thor (Chris Hemsworth)

I had low expectations coming into this movie and in the end I enjoyed it.

Trailers: The Last Jedi (2017), Black Panther (2018), Samson (2018), The New Mutants (2019), Downsizing (2017), Early Man (2018), I, Tonya (2017). 7:19PM PT

[20180203 Edit]

20181007:
I decided to watch this movie again today and I was reminded that the film was hilarious. This film most definitely belongs in the top three among humorous Marvel movies belonging to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Hela (Cate Blanchett)

What's great is that the film also boasts satisfying action scenes. Off the top of my head, there's one at the beginning with Thor, one with Hela on Asgard, a battle between Thor and Hulk, an escape/chase sequence, and the grand final battle.

Oddly enough, I previously forgot to recommend the movie. If you're into action films, then this movie has the ingredients of a great one and I'd just about guarantee you'd enjoy it. As a remark, don't worry if you haven't seen any of the other films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, because the film's story can essentially stand on its own. There are, however, references and connections to past and future MCU films for those who have seen them.

On 20181007, Netflix determined the movie for me as a 99% match. I decided to give the movie a thumbs up.

20190324:
My dad came over today and so I put Thor: Ragnorok on television for him.

Loki (Tom Hiddleston)

One thing I wondered during this viewing was how Helena was able to stop and break Thor's hammer.

On 20190418, Netflix determined the movie for me as a 97% match.

Instant Comments:
1: Thor references looking for the Infinity Stones.
2: So many jokes in the opening scene. 1) Him talking to the skeleton. 2) Son of a... bitch. 3) Rotating. (x2)
4: Smile. The dragon's eye rolls up towards the girls.
1: Lol. Matt Damon.
2: "Father." "Oh shit."
1: Hmm. Loki... I forgot how the other Thor movie ended. [I believe I was referring to the second movie, and I actually didn't see the second movie.]
1: Repeats one of the credit scenes in Doctor Strange.

Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson)

2: Hehe. Strange 1, Loki 0. ("Alright, bye bye.")
1: I didn't realize the portal under Loki's feet was clearly created by Strange.
4: haha. I didn't remember her drunk falling off.
4: oh, a soldier actually managed to drive a spear through her.
2: Hela may be a villain, but that fight sequence (Hela vs. soldiers) was a joy to watch. Hela is a badass.
1: Nice little scene. [20181007: This comment probably refers to the fight sequence with Hela.]
4: oh, it showed someone pulled out the sword [20211105: actually, for those familiar, it's pretty clear that it's Heimdall who pulls out the Bifrost sword, and in the scene before it gets pulled out, he's shown climbing on the rocks outside of the area]
4: they use the music from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory [20211105: "Pure Imagination"; it begins after the speaker says "The answer is Sakkar."].
2: Ha. "I am the God of Thunder!" [with sparkles coming out, and no thunder sound]
4: how was Loki already there for weeks before Thor? [20211105: The Grandmaster actually says soon after that time works different on Sakkar. So since Loki popped out of the Bifrost before Thor, he's already spent weeks on Sakkar] 2: Ouch. "Officially pardoned... from life."
2, 4: Hela comments "Smaller than I thought it would be." and @tesseract "That's not bad."
2: Hehe. Stan Lee cameo. He cuts Thor's hair.
2, 4: [4: hahahahaha] "Yes! That's how it feels!" - Loki in reference to when he was tossed back and forth by Hulk (in the Avengers).
2: Meh. Cheated out of a win.

Thor with his haircut

2: Hahaha. Fire. Water. Raging fire. (Conversation)
2, 4: [4: "What happened to your hair?"] "Some creepy old man cut it off." [4: "It looks good."]
2: Ha. Banner is "strongest Avenger." Compared to all of Thor's failed voice access codes. Speaking of which, what does "point break" mean?
2: "Did I win?" "No, I won, easily." "Doesn't sound right."
1: Thor talks with Banner, "I prefer you." 2: Opposite of what he told Hulk.
1: Ha. Conversation between Loki and Valkyrie [20211105: maybe I meant to write Banner and Valkyrie]
4: 7 PhD's vs 0 PhDs ["How many PhDs does Hulk have? Zero. How many PhDs does Banner have? Seven."]
4: Haha. "Use one of your PhDs"
4: Oh, I forgot how this is how Thor lost his eye.
2: "Are you, Thor, the God of Hammers?"
2: It has a nice effect when lightning only comes out of one eye.
2: Oh, it's "Des" and "Troy".

Hulk (Mark Ruffalo)

1: Loki must have stolen the cube.
1: Speaking of which, why are those treasures not locked up more securely?

Credits:
2: After the end title credits. "I feel like everything will turn out fine." Uh-oh.
2: Haha. After credits: Grandmaster tries and talks his way out of a sticky situation.
2: "Thor will return Avengers: Infinity War"

Bob Ross: Beauty is Everywhere

Summary: A selection of episodes from the television series The Joy of Painting Seasons 20-23 (1990-1991) with Bob Ross.

The episodes are as follows: 1) S20E06 2) S21E07 3) S21E01 4) S22E07 5) S22E08 6) S20E11 7) S22E11 8) S22E10 9) S21E04 10) S22E13 11) S23E01 12) S21E03 13) S20E08 14) S23E03 15) S21E02 16) S20E10 17) S20E10 18) S23E13 19) S21E06 20) 21) S20E08 22) S23E12 23) S21E05 24) S20E07 25) S22E12 26) S22E09

I watched Bob Ross when I was younger and I vaguely remember wondering who would ever follow along. Of course, I had the same thought about all the cooking shows and the other painting shows on PBS.

Fast forward to the present and Bob Ross has made his return to Twitch.tv. It's quite a social experience.

In any case, my significant other wanted to do another Paint Nite, but I convinced her to just follow along with Bob Ross. This was when I first watched episodes from this Netflix collection entitled Bob Ross: Beauty is Everywhere.

20171203:
I watched half of episode 18, most of episode 13, and then I decided to follow along and paint episode 8. I first watched it once without painting, and then when I started following along, I had to rewind and watch parts of it multiple times.

(Episode 2: Wilderness Cabin)


20180219:
Today I wanted to paint along with another Bob Ross episode. I started by watching episode 3, but then ended up watching episode 4. Unfortunately, that episode used masking tape which I didn't have.

20180221:
Instead of trying to paint along to episode 4, I decided to look at some more episodes. I watched episode 11 a couple of times and was interested in painting it. Then I watched the first couple minutes of episode 12, but I decided to hold off on paintings that used black gesso. Finally, I watched episode 14 multiple times and decided to paint along to it.

20180531:
I turned on Netflix today and expected this show to have already expired (it was set to expire at 20180531 12:00 AM). To my delight, it was immediately renewed!

C1E1: Cliffside
1: White liquid clear | Black gesso
1: Three baby squirrels.
1: !ripdevil 9:45
1: Wipe the brush off and load it to get a clean (white sea foam on top of lavendar)
1: Oh wow. The white on top of the lavender really brought out the feel of the sea foam.
1: I felt asleep towards the end, when he was working on the cliffside to the right of the painting.
1: Summary: Pink Sky | Seascape | Cliff

Bob feeds a baby squirrel (Episode 1: Cliffside)

C1E2: Wilderness Cabin
1: Black gesso with sponge | Covered with some liquid clear | Dried | Covered with green | White liquid clear on top
1: Highlight and shadow at the same time.
1: When he talks about the Little Painter Man, either he talks about the opening every so often, or I've seen this episode on Twitch.tv. I do recognize some techniques being implemented, but he repeats many of his techniques so that's less clear.
1: It gets darker and darker on the way down the tree because there's less paint on the brush and the brush picks up the darker black

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

Overview: A group of friends own a bar called Paddy's Irish Pub in South Philadelphia. The group consists of Charlie (Charlie Day), Mac (Rob McElhenney), siblings Dennis (Glenn Howerton) and Dee (Kaitlin Olson), and, starting with season two, Frank (Danny Devito).


Dennis, Dee, Charlie, Mac, and Frank. S2E02

20171122:
Set to expire on December 12, 2017, I decided to start binge-watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. With 124 episodes to watch (11 out of the 12 seasons) at approximately 20 minutes a piece, that's about 41 hours of episodes. Assuming I can watch an average of four hours a day, that'd take me about 10 days.

To start, I watched from Season 1 Episode 1 to Season 2 Episode 4 with very few breaks. However, after Season 2 Episode 4, I had to take a break.

S1E03


20171123:
Today I watched the rest of Season 2, and while the show is hilarious, I just had to take a break from watching more.

20171201:
Today I watched the rest of Season 3 and a couple of episodes from of Season 4 as well.

20171203:
I was watching Season 6 Episode 1 and noticed that it was in widescreen. Apparently Season 5 was also all shot in fullscreen.

20171209:
My goal was to finish all eleven seasons before they left Netflix, but yesterday was so busy that I left in the middle of the last episode of the ninth season and by the time I came home and got settled the episodes had been removed.

20210905:
Today I began resuming the series on Hulu.
20211226:
I was finishing up S15E06 and curious if the season was still in progress. It turns out the season concluded with the release of the seventh and eighth episode on the 22nd (a couple of days ago).
S1E01
"We weren't expecting you to be black that's all." - Mac
I can't help but feel, how Dennis might be feeling right now. Does he mean "butt sex" when he says "tear his ass apart"?
Lol. Focus on black men.
Oh. Okay. He skipped kissing Dee and went to aggressively hug Dennis.
Lol. (two against one)
[They made the whole tequila order confusing. So I looked it up and it's salt, then tequila, and then lime.]
Ha. $114 = Back to normal for a Saturday night (e.g., they made way less than being a gay bar during the week) (of course, the plot of characters having the potential to become rich, but eventually break even is common among sitcoms)
Lol. "How's that ass feeling?" (as the punchline ending)
1=20171122

S1E01

S1E02
Pokes fun at contradictions in religious beliefs. In this case, Charlie is Catholic, chooses to believe in premarital
Hahahahaha. "What's this?" "That's the list of doctors I'm gonna kill."
Haha. "There's two already crossed out."
Lol. It worked.
"I don't really have any convictions." - Dennis
"I love the smell of protest in the morning." - Mac, a conscious reference to Apocalypse Now (1979)
1=20171122

S1E02

S1E03
Haha. The camera panning over to the underage bar patron and Charlie says, "Did you see that he was totally going to cry."
Elmer's glue is non-toxic and safe.
"We can't go to the prom." "What do you mean we? Who asked you?"
Mac says he's 28 years old.

Lol. When the camera pans to it, it's not even a discrete bulge.
"Gross... two-fifty."
Lol. Accidentally punched the trannie.

Dennis tries to help Charlie, but the waitress shows interest in him over Charlie. S1E04

"I think it's clear what needs to happen." "What?" "We need to buy a gun."
Michael Rosenbaum.
He's probably the one who committed the crime [Charlie subsequently foreshadows this]
Ha. "Tell me we're not getting rid of that gun?" "No way." "Never."
1=20171122

S1E06
Dee's grandfather called her Deandra.
Lol. Her grandfather purposely teased her.
"Great. You must be really proud of yourself. Your grandfather's a Nazi."
Lol. Mac kept the picture, now in Dennis's possession, while Charlie kept the hat.

"Tell me we're not getting rid of that gun?" "No way." "Never." S1E05

S1E07
"I didn't like that class."
Hahaha. Hahaha. "Why didn't I get blown?" - Mac
It's Dennis Haskins (Principal Belding in Saved by the Bell)
Lol. What idiots (going around telling everyone that Charlie was molested; they didn't even ask him)
Creepy. Who is that? (The man who keeps saying "Turn it over." "Slow, slow.")
The resolution was simpler than I thought it would be.
Ha! "That little prick's going to hell."
1=20171122

S2E01
Danny Devito! (I didn't know he was their dad)
At around 15:37 minute mark, the woman in the store which they pass waves at the camera.
Hahahahahahahaha. Ahahahahaahahaha. Hahahahahahahahaha. Ahahahahahaha. ("What's going on down there?" "Those two guys are pretending to be disabled and are kicking each other's asses." "Dee remarks "What a bunch of scumbags" and then walks away disabled. (I haven't laughed this hard at a sitcom joke in a long time)

Lol. The ending. ("You gentlemen know anything about this?")

Haha. Missed it by a day.
Ha. Crack addicts.
Ha! "Because you are crackheads, children."

Dennis and Dee have become crack addicts. S2E03

S2E04
How is Mac holding the toupee if Frank is wearing a toupee.
Haha. "Not interested."
"It isn't over 'til I say its over!"
I can't wait to see how it all comes together.
Holy! Phase II was great.
Hahaha. "I guess I kind of overlooked that detail."
Aww. Charlie's master plan didn't work out after all.

Hahaha. They just ditch Dee.

"Here's a confession: I'm in love with a man. What? I'm in love with a man... a man named God. Does that make me gay? Am I gay for God? You betcha." - Charlie
Decent ending. (teabag)

The McPoyle siblings. (S2E09)

S2E08
This is the second episode that displays Charlie's inability to read.
"Who do you think you are? Bill Clinton?"
"That's politics."
1=20171123

S2E09
Ha. The transition.
I didn't understand what Dee was talking about with choking and vomiting.
Haha. These guys.
"Rock, Flag, and Eagle."
Oh, in this scene with the McPoyles brothers and their sister, the brother on the left reminded me of one of the actors in Dead Poet Society. [I thought Liam McPoyle (actor Jimmi Simpson) looked like Charlie Dalton (actor Gale Hansen).]
Hahahahaha. Russian roulette.
1=20171123

S2E10
Frank isn't the biological father of Dee and Dennis (While I came across this info about two to three episodes ago, I didn't know when it would be revealed. I also know another tidbit as well.)
Hahaha. "What do you guys know about smuggling heroin through your anus?"
That's the same gun from the previous episode.
It's Stephen Collins who played Rev. Eric Camden on 7th Heaven.
Smile. Elmer's Glue again.
The episode ends with the implication that Frank is Charlie's biological father. (This was the other tidbit I mentioned having learned from the Wiki. I didn't realize it would happen in the same episode.
1=20171123

S3E01
WTF: "There's a baby in this dumpster."
Hehe. The weed.
The reverse psychology. (Chains)
Hahaha. Hahahaha. Frank and Charlie sleep outside instead of getting rid of some stuff.
Parodies The Doors (1991) ("Riders on the Storm" is playing)
Ha. "You survived the abortion."
That was unexpected.
Ending was great. (And reasonable that Frank feeds the ambiguity of the situation)
1=20171125

S3E02
Ha. Beers and Dominoes outside.
Doyle McPoyle.
"Can I get the check."
Hahaha. Dennis gets hit by the football.
Lol. Frank's tripping inside a trash can.
Credits: Geoffrey Owens (Elvin Tibideaux on The Cosby Show)
1=20171125

S3E03
1a: Lol. Doesn't make sense how she gives away his money.
1b: Ha. Frank's idea is ridiculous.
1b: Ha. Frank's reaction to AIDs.
1b: Didn't see that coming. Though I suppose he probably did know what Frank looked like.
1b:
We're three cool guys looking for other cool guys who want to hang out in our party mansion. Nothing sexual. Dudes in good shape encourages. If you are fat, you should be able to find humor in the little things. Again, nothing sexual.
1b: Throw him off the roof.
1b: Hahaha. Guy comes falling from the roof as Charlie and Ernesto are crying.
1b: The ending of this episode wasn't as good as the other episodes.
1a=20171125, 1b=20171128

S3E04
The McPoyles...
Ha. That fake map bit was good.
Haha. Stab somebody.
Ha. Dee is beginning to display Stockholm Syndrome.
Mac picked up an axe which he could have used as a weapon.
Hehe. Better than the last episode.

S3E05
Ah. It's the secretary from Arrested Development
Hahaha. Charlie uses Dennis's sketches as porn material.
The song continues playing through the credits.
1=20171128

S3E06
Christopher Walken impersonation, but from what movie?
Like American Idol.
"Charlie, he smell like dog fart."
This girl laughing at Dennis together with Charlie was a great moment.
Haha. "Am I in America?"
No way she'd actually be 12 years old. But it wasn't a terrible way to bring misfortune with respect to their situation.
Hahahahahaha. The final exchange of lines.
1=20171128

S3E07
Hmm. Where have I seen this actor? [Richard Ruccolo from Two Guys, a Girl, and a Pizza Place]
Ha. They took the difference out of her pocket.
They're playing jacks.
50's Doowop Group.
1=20171128

S3E08
1a: HAHA. "It was absolutely crazy."
1a: Holy. Simple and neutral until asking what she doesn't like about the place.
1b: No one acknowledged that Mac just saved that guy's life.
1b: Ha. Oh Charlie. (no tape)
1b: Can't believe she did the well.
1b: Of course.
1b: The dance beat continues into the credits.
1a=20171128, 1b=20171129

Nightman.
Dayman.
"I don't think he's retarded."
1=20171129

S3E10
Larry Bird
Dee references the time she had crack.
Pepperjack
How long will this be drawn out (confusion between Mac and Charlie).
"Look, it's not like I'm ashamed of you. I'm ashamed of myself."
Hahaha. Dennis takes a jab at Dee's physical appearance.
1=20171201

S3E11
This episode had its moments.
1=20171201

S3E12
Tango & Cash

Ha. "He does have gorgeous hands though."
Ha. They run into the priest that Dee screwed over.

Agent Jack Bauer. (The cat's name.)
Serpico (1973).
1=20171201

S3E15
Ha. Rickety Cricket (Matthew) is back.
Haha. Charlie washes his balls every Friday.
Dennis does the stealing idea bit against Dee, which was something they both used
"You lousy bastards."
Hahaha. Charlie's still going even after the cough syrup filled brownie.
Oh. Finally.
Hahahaha. Cricket accidentally hits Dee.
1=20171201

S4E01
Rambo
Hahaha. Frank totally psyched them out. They don't know whether or not he's bluffing. Actually, I don't know either.
Cricket's back!
HAHAHA. Charlie licked a cat's butt.
Hehe. "Hey, we got monkey."
"Rambo again."
"Then I guess Jaws IV is stupid."
Hahahahaha. $50. Yogurt. Hot plate. Hilarious.
HAHAHA. "They drew first blood, not you." (Cricket recognizes it as Rambo)
1=20171201

S4E02
Haha. "Which one of us do you want to take in the back and bang you?" - Mac to the loan officer. He alternates his pecs.
Ghostbusters theme.
Hahaha. "Wildcard, bitches."
1=20171201

S4E03

Hahahahaha. Hahahaha. "I don't know, that's his problem." Hahaha.
Hahahaha. Hahahaha. Charlie easily pulls out two more teeth.
Ha. And a fourth.
Hahaha. He didn't jump out.
1=20171202

S4E06
Ha. When Charlie questions whether or not Frank knew they were dead.
1=20171202

S4E07
Hehehe. Econ major.
Ha. "Name's Artemis. I got a bleached asshole."
Hahaha. Dee runs out and bangs her head against the car.
"Did it not go through?"
That art exhibit.
1=20171202*
*I saw a part of this episode once before.

S4E08
1=20171202

S4E09
Hahahaha. Hahahaha. Hahahaha. When Frank comes in and starts downing his own can of cat food.
It's Sinbad!
Sinbad says it's Rob Thomas from Matchbox 20.
1=20171202

S4E10
Mentions the movie The Secret of My Success
Day bow bow. I recognize the song from Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986). [It's actually named "Oh Yeah" by Yello]
When Frank enters the psych ward, the current occupants are a parody of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975). [The parody continues throughout the episode] [Danny Devito played one of the patients in the movie]
Hahaha. Pepe Silvia, Carol, missing mail, and pink slip.
As the credits role, Frank is shown trying to hop the fence.
1=20171202

S4E11
Ha. Frank and Charlie carelessly begin shooting at each other.
1=20171202

S4E12
Apocalypto.
Hahaha. "Move that bus."
That ending.
1=20171202

S4E13
"You got to pay the troll toll, if you wanna get into that boy's hole." (But Charlie wrote "soul")
That first song was good.
They finish with "The Nightman."
Ha. "Stage freeze." "Don't say stage freeze, just do it."
1=20171202

S5E01
Ha. Dee gives a pricing schedule that goes to at least 10.
1=20171202

Haha. (Dennis hits the biker with a beer)
How did they get their hands on her keys?
1=20171202

S5E03
Hahaha. Charlie turns on the "Closed" sign when the bar is open.
This creepy character (that we previously saw on a previous episode) is Charlie's uncle.
Hahaha. Dee pouring wine onto the floor.
Ha. Idiots. "Who wants free money?"
1=20171202*
*I recognized the scene where they're talking about the Dave & Buster's cards.

S5E04
Ha. Their cousin Gail (Mary Lynn Rajskub)
"You know... I do offer group therapy."
Wine in a soda can.
Hahahahaha. Someone says to "Swallow it or spit it out." and so Gail spits out her saliva onto the floor.
1=20171202*
*I vaguely recall bits and parts of this episode. In particular, the intervention and wine in a can.

S5E05
That's quite some revenge.
1=20171202

S5E06
Hehe. Camera pans to each of their faces gagging on the fumigation chemicals (Mac, Dee, Frank)
As Mac, Dennis, Dee, and Frank talk, we can occasionally still see the mascot and two guys beating up Charlie.
Haha! A dungeon. Made up, but they all screamed in unison inside the courtroom.
1=20171202

S5E07
She's fully dressed as a rose and carrying a rose. Yet says she isn't "Desert Rose." (Sting)
Hehehe. "I knew this shit wasn't fake."
1=20171202

S5E08
Hohohoho. Oh my goodness. The cat walks across the table with the kitten mittens and falls off.
Ha. "I'll just eat it later."
Hahahahaha. Hahahahaha. Ha. Frank takes a shot to the mouth, gags a little, but says "Awesome, I'm wasted."
1=20171202

S5E09
Bam. "Without checking in?"
Hahaha. They just stare at each other.
1=20171202

S5E10
Ha. Ha. He calls her anonymously.
Hahaha. Mac has a MAC system.
Haha. Frank comes in after Mac.
Ha. They screwed with Dee so hard.
Hahaha. The old woman says, "My grandmother was a lesbian."
1=20171202

S5E11
1a: Ha. Charlie doesn't understand the plot of The Sixth Sense.
1b: Ha. A prequel to the Sixth Sense.
1b: Ha. Ha. The twist is to show full penetration.
1b: The "plot twists"...
1a=20171202, 1b=20171203

S5E12
Flipadelphia.
What, I thought she said she'd been practicing.
Pull a Good Will Hunting (1997).
He talks about respect and he's completely disrespecting them.
"I'm doing this guy's taxes."
Dee manages to do 10 in a row. Though I wonder if she was kind of cheating. It looked like she was using her second hand.
I didn't see that coming. Poisoned Dee and the frat boys.
1=20171203

S6E01
Hahaha. They crack their backs.
Hehe. "We're already friends right. Let's be friends with benefits." - Charlie to Frank.
The gay marriage paperwork is a pile compared to the straight marriage.
Ha. "It smelled like she was nibbling on little pieces of shit."
1=20171203

S6E02
Don't look in the drawers. > What's in them? > My sex tapes.
Smile. Jokes about choking.
Sometimes their rude personalities are just too much for me. (Dee takes a car from Bill but shows him absolutely no consideration with respect to Bill's newfound homelessness)
Holy shit. It's a BMW.
Hahahaha. "Have you touched them yet?"
1=20171204 AM

S6E03
Ha. Diabetes.
Hahahaha. The dancing air guy was still moving.
1=20171204 AM

S6E04
Ha. Lucky guess.
Holy shit. Cricket's trashcan wound got infected.
Jabroni
1=20171204 AM

S6E05
Hoho. She shot a piece of snot outside her right nostril (after plugging the left one).
The height of the pool looks low enough that they can reach it by one person standing on top of the other.
In the following scene with all the junk shown, it looks like if they couldn't reach by stacking, then they have enough junk to stack and then stand on top of each other.
Ha. The mobility from short shorts (which references the previous episode).
Hahaha. Dennis gets tackled during his attempt to enter the high class pool.
1=20171204

S6E06
"Viggio Morgenstein."
Phantom of the Opera vs. vampire.
Wait, why was Charlie upset with his sexy costume. Doesn't make sense. [Explained by Frank in a few scenes]
Man-Spider.
Ha. Damn, that dumpster is really shaking.
Hahaha. The McPoyle's version of the story and the ending.
"Don't flush."
1=20171204

S6E07
"Cider House Rules"
"The Gang."
Smile. He tells her to give up.
1=20171204

S6E08
Smile. Monk chanting.
Ha. "Tell people we pushed you." - Frank
Ha. "No, I'm not acting, you bitch." - Dee's teacher to Dee.
Huh. I didn't see that coming. Charlie rejects their offer and stays a janitor.
1=20171204

S6E09
"And that's what you call a monologue."
Dennis, Frank, and Mac discuss blackface.
Lethal Weapon 5 [their fan sequel to Lethal Weapon 4 (1998)]
Ha. That sex scene.
They switched parts...
That's pretty good. Out the window and crushed by a car.
The electric guitar. Perfect.
1=20171204

S6E10
Smile. Dennis switched out Mac's gift with the shirt he wanted.
I don't get why Dee would just throw the second one out.
Ah hahaha. "Oh, just tell me when you're done. I'm the guy who wipes down the loads."
1=20171204

S6E11
Stupid Mac. "Squirrel!"
Charlie in the trunk.
Air through nose. Dennis tells Charlie he always checks their ID.
Hahaha. "Split me like a coconut."
Wow. What jerks.
She's gonna let it go and it's gonna get eaten or crushed. [Haha. Called it.]
Somehow the fact that Dennis openly shoves it in Mac's face makes it less bad - at least in the frame of the show.
1=20171204

S6E12
Pulling a Weekend at Bernie's.
Smile. "Please don't put me in the trash."
That ending.
1=20171205 AM

S6E13 and S6E14
Ha. "Your other left."
"Merry Christmas, bitches!" - Frank.
Oh snaps. I had a robot similar to that.
Hahaha. Mac screams for the Cabbage Patch Kid toy and the plot twist.
Smile. Charlie's realization of his childhood Christmas is worse than Mac's
That's pure awesome. Frank popping out of the couch naked.
Smile. They're not returning it.
Haha. Hahahaha. "Did you fuck my mom?" - Charlie asks of the mall Santa.
Hahaha. He repeats it with his bloody mouth as Mac drags him away.
"When I'm dead just throw me in the trash." - Frank being real with Dennis and Dee.
He's definitely not dead. [Obviously.]
Ha. Ha. The door is raised.
Hahaha. What the fuck. It pans to the elf's penis.
Ha. "Why did the elf have no pants on?" - Charlie
Frank replies, "I didn't say the elf had no pants on."
They're hilarious.
I was just thinking that! "Who tows on Christmas Eve." - Mac
1=20171205 AM*
*I remember the scene with Frank popping out of the couch. I think my friend Josh shared the episode with me (and our friends) but I don't remember any other part of the episode.

S7E01
Ha. "It's Tiger Woods."
Ha. WTF with that barf. It looks like blood.
Ha. Blood capsules.
The Bill Cosby actor is back.
Ha. Don Cheadle.
OMG. He just casually injects himself with insulin.
1=20171205

S7E02
Haha. He's drinking sunblock.
Rum ham!
Eewwww. Disgusting. The way they showed the blood squirt out her head as the hair got pulled out.
"Did you rape me last night?"
Aww. Poor Charlie. [Though he thinks positively of it.]
1=20171205

S7E03
Mac gasps for breathe as he eats.
HAHAHA. She replaces ass with vagina.
Oh yeah, they definitely hinted that ending.
1=20171205

S7E04
Haha. "Your license plate says 'Scammin.'"
1=20171205

S7E05
"No orientals though."
"Shady nasties?" "Shadynasty." (pronounced like Sha-dynasty)
Ha. "Those were the days." "It sounds like you yearn for those days." [...]
She chooses drugs.
That ending just had to happen. There really was no way around it. The moment they were headed to the airport, that was the ending.
1=20171205

S7E06
Smile. He has another hatchet.
Haha. Mac just watching the news at home.
1=20171205

S7E07
Charlie is so bad.
It's got to be a penis... [It's not]
Ha. Is Frank gonna turn this whole thing around and win it for Charlie and Mac?
Hahahaha. Frank gets one dead in the hand.
They don't remember writing it?
Ha. Flip a coin.
Haha. Ha. They lost anyways.
1=20171205

S7E08
Ha. Mac wants to know about the photos.
1=20171205

S7E09
"I'm a Swedish plumber, I've come to fix your pipes."
Possibly a reference to E.T. (1982)
HAHA! "The vase!" Tries to pull it in with his whip (perhaps like Indiana Jones) but breaks it.
1=20171205

S7E10
Huh. They had to film this before he got fat? [Apparently they used footage from an unaired episode]
1=20171205

S7E11
"Too muscular."
"I know. So are weeeeeeee."
Wait, why would that guy leave his keys in his bike like that?
Frank tells the tourists about various stories (episodes)
Frank.
1=20171205

S7E12
Nice. Cricket's all cleaned up and a priest again.
Ha. Unfortunate for Cricket.
"To think I was gonna let you jack me off."
1=20171205

S7E13
Dennis reveals his system.
"Dennis turned out to be a loser."
HAHA. Expectation vs. Reality.
Oh Schmitty.
1=20171205

S8E01
Mac's weight loss is the first point made.
Haha. The ending.
1=20171205

S8E02
Plowing. Clarifies "Not gay sex."
Where are they taking it?
Hahaha. "Wild card, bitches."
1=20171205

S8E03
Hahahahahahahaha. Mac and Dennis catch Charlie quoting Jaws (1975).
It looked like he was giving his brother a blowjob.
This episode aired October 25, 2012.
1=20171205

S8E04
What an extreme stalker.
"Do you want to follow her around some more?"
She looks familiar (Ruby) [Oh, I saw her in Baywatch (2017). Her name is Alexandra Daddario.]
Huh. He's playing Dee and Charlie, but what about Ruby.
Weird. That ending... But I guess that's love.
1=20171206

S8E05
Oh, when it was Charlie's turn, the psychologist looked more familiar. She looks a little like one of Sabrina's aunts (in Sabrina the Teenage Witch). And yet, her voice and appearance reminds me of a character that behaved more abnormally, borderline crazy. If I were to guess, I'd guess Orange is the New Black. [Oh! She's Deputy Trudy Wiegel in Reno 911!. Her name is Kerri Kenney.]
References that Frank may or may not be his father.
Begins using a Brooklyn accent.
Good Will Hunting (1997)
Ha. Ha. "What is happening?"
Haha. "You having a white Christmas?"
"Okay, okay!!! Dee doing the [bleep] dishes."
It's funny cause Dee's rant is exactly the kind of thing Kerri Kenney's character Wiegel would be seen doing on Reno 911!.
1=20171206

S8E06
Hehehe. "Charlie, I have lung cancer." "How? You don't even smoke?" "Well you know. It's just one of those freak things." (second-hand smoke)
(Sharp as a tack.)
Ha. "It's the holy trinity. Beef and beer and Jesus."
I might have saw this coming (Frank tricking Dee)
1=20171206

S8E07: Frank's Back in Business
"Boom I got your wallet." "Boom I got your credit card."
Haha. "Don't you guys want to get off with me." Hehehe.
Hahaha. Caddy.
Mmm. I kind of missed the connection here.
0=20140110, 1=20171206

S8E08
Hahaha. Dennis pushes Dennis down.
Crazy meeting between Charlie and the other player. Charlie's full of surprises.
"I'll let you live."
1=20171206

S8E09
Hahahaha. Mac manages to tip the waiter with a dollar and cop a feel.
1=20171206

S8E10: Reynolds vs Reynolds
Ha. The piece of evidence which exonerates Frank of having donkey brains.
Hahaha. Haha. Dee moves herself to "on the fence."
Ha. Hahaha. Mac's argument moves Frank, Charlie, and Dee to "on the fence" with regards to Evolution.
I didn't see that coming.
0=20140109, 1=20171206

S9E01
Hahahaha. "They wrote 'wash me' on the filth on my vagina."
Huh. The new manager and Dee.
Hahaha. Great ending. Well done.
1=20171206

S9E02
Ah, this guy was on New Girl. [Jeff Kober]
Hunger Games type scenario.
1=20171206

S9E03
Hahaha. Mac came at Dennis hard.
"I Like Paddy's Pub." Awesome song.
"Go Fuck Yourselves."
1=20171206

S9E04
Hahahaha. Idiots. Mac and Dennis buy three weeks of timeshare.
Hahaha. Charlie tells the audience in the video that it's a pyramid scheme.
Frank knows that all four have been duped. Of course the silly thing is he's trapped in this coil.
Ha. "Just" $2000 to opt out of the timeshare.
Hmm. While I did wonder how Frank could get stuck in the coil but not get out, I didn't think he'd be at the top of the scheme.
Haha. Down line.
Lol. Still stuck there. But that still begs the question, how?
1=20171207

S9E05
Seann William Scott
Haha. "Jump you pussy."
Lol.
Wait. What. (Jump)
Haha. (He lives)
Hahaha. "Let me try." Single well-placed knock on the glass.
This is the first episode where they mention and/or agree that Mac is gay. ("I know we've never said this as a group, but Mac's gay.") It's particularly fitting because Country Mac is openly gay (and Country Mac is supposed to be like a version of Mac). There's certainly been moments in other episodes where it's suggested that Mac is gay (including his relationship with the Tranny).
1=20171207

S9E06
Hahahaha. "I... don't... forgive you."
Haha. "Something tells me I'm gonna be here a long time." "Why's that?" "Your sweater's on backwards."
Hahahahahaha. "Does... my dick work?" "No. [...]" "Kill me."
Holy crap. Ruthless. He just kills her because she doesn't have her breasts anymore?
Ha. The simplicity of Frank's thoughts. (It came at the right time because I was thinking, they have to break the mold somehow.)
Haha. Ha. A parody of UP.
Haha. That end.
1=20171207

S9E07
HAhahahaha. "Dennis, ask him how it's possible for you to talk through a cut phone wire."
Whaa.... (Bible)
Dude, that beer insert is awesome.
Haha. "That's not mine."
Lol. Why not send them home?
Ha. "Are you kidding me dude, I think you're going to die."
He's gonna be naked. (As they follow the sanitizer)
Ha. Close, in his undies.
1=20171208

S9E08
They're talking about Die Hard.
It's Jimmy O. Yang. I haven't seen Silicon Valley, but my coworkers showed me some clips.
Hahahahaha. Charlie can't figure out the cheese.
WTF. Placebo effect or not, Charlie displays the ability to learn Mandarin via audiotapes.
Ha. Hahaha. "Deandra, are you holding onto the trap?"
WHAT THE FUCK. Spiders talking to cats.
1=20171208

S9E09
Hahahaha. That volleyball match followed by the showering.
Hahahaha. The blackface washes off during the shower.
They switched roles during the shower scene.
"That's because we're not gay."
1=20171208

S9E10
Ha. Literal. "Squashing beef" "Bury the hatchet" and "Wipe the slate clean"
Hahaha. The fake eye drawn.
Wow. McPoyle just wants an apology but Dennis would rather get the eye.
???
1=20171208

S10E01
"Again, he's still alive."
The ridiculousness of trying to beat an unofficial and unplausible record very fitting for this show.
Dee 29, Charlie 13, Dennis 10, Frank 8 is what is shown at the start. I have no idea what direction this will go. Maybe a slow and steayd thing where Frank wins.
Hmm. "Air Sex Society" is nice because the acryonym is ASS.
Hahaha. That woman wants to sit with Dennis.
Anticlimatic ending.
1=20210905

S10E02
Smile. They used his system against him. I was surprised they just shifted to Mac and Charlie as opposed to leaving altogether.
"Looks like the spider caught herself a fly."
HAHAHA. "Hi ladies I'm Frack."
1=20210905

S10E03
1=20210905

S10E04
Because Charlie is so on top of things (right down to knowing their plan and their mistakes), my intuition is that this is a dream.
Smile. Frank painted in black and plowing the sound for the fire alarm.
Ha. Six feet.
Smile. Even the stool.
1=20210905

S10E05
Probably this research is just porn.
This episode seems familiar. With Dee working in th fish factory and the guy crashing [I probably did see it before]
1=20210905

S10E06
"angel dust" is phencyclidine (PCP) 1=20210905

S10E07
1=20210905

S10E08
Wow. Dragon. That's a genius joke. And for the record, the respondent total adds up to 100.
Hahaha. Toe knife. I bet it's gonna be "Bride"
HA! Dee broke the buzzer.
At this point. "Nightman" has got to be the bottom answer. [Which would suggest Charlie was a survey respondent]

They're setting up a situation where Dennis and Mac are husband and wife, respectively. (Dennis tells Mac to do all the chores)
Smile. The pool guy.
Frank comes prepared.
HAHAHA. Trash built up surrounded by car fresheners.
I'm thinking they still fail. (Dennis gives mac the list)
I totally didn't think about the year rent would be for that place
I was wondering about the bit with Mac saying "black man" instead of "old man." Dennis makes attempts at correcting the usage but more to not appear racist as opposed for some deeper belief about racism. I then tried to process what makes the show work. This scene and others like it are offensive, but my general impression is that the show strikes a balance. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, and so I did some reading. The general consensus is that the characters are bad people.

Hehe. $200.
Wow. I didn't see that coming. Bird attacks the lawyer.
1=20210913 AM

S11E08
Drinking paint.
Hahaha. That escalated quickly. From free beers (instead of taking cash), to locking them in, to pointing a gun
1=20210913 AM

S11E09
I figured they stowed some alcohol onboard... but I figured hard liquor. Instead they brought a ton of beer.
Smile. The cross burned Frank. [it's later revealed why]
Hahaha. They're both packing vests of beer. Though Charlie's is made of duct tape.
1=20210919

S11E10
This impressions bit was good.
Their imaginary dinner was hilarious. They really got into it.
Hehe. The final twist.
1=20210919

S12E01
Wow. That's clever. (in the mirror)
This singing is amusing.
Hahaha. "Well I just think we found out a new rule."
1=20211220

S12E02
They have no shame: AIDS.
Hehe. Scammed out of $20.
Hehe. "You doing the AIDS thing?" [...] "You doing a fake daughter thing?"
Honestly Dee can just probably just get past
Hahahahaha. "It burns it burns it burns."
Smile. The look on Mac's face as he goes towards the drain.
1=20211220

S12E03
"Now it's funny again.
1=20211220

S12E04
"Ah shit, I just puked on my dick."
Hahaha. Reading the words scrolling on the bottom as Dennis, Dee, and then Frank speak in turn
1=20211220

S12E05
SMILE. Fourth crow
Ridiculous collar business
Hehe. The twist.
Hahaha. "You know what, that would be, 'Very nice.'"
1=20211220

S12E06
Huh.
Gross. "Like an IRA"
Is the difference in Charlie saying the N word because he's using it as a word?
I thought Mac already came out of the closet. He's back in?
Hahahahaha. The bike.
Hahahahaha. "That's not a penis. It's a fist."
"Maybe I'll stay out."
Charlie can't do the math. "That's all that's left? Oh no."
1=20211220

S12E07
Hohohoho. Damn Dee. Oldboy-level dark.
1=20211220

S12E08
"Which bridge?"
Hahahahaha. Cricket comes out... "for pay or for free." "For free." "Chump."
Ha! That's disgusting. Don't tapeworms come in pills? Sticking feces up your butt. That's comedic writing.
1=20211224

S12E09
Goes back to the previous episode (S12E07).
Ha. "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" "Go behind a dumpster and bang?"
Whoa. That was amazing. (Jump through the window and flipped off the truck)
Haha. The twist
Ends with the part in S12E08.
1=20211224

S12E10
15 minutes, a dollar a minute
Poor Dee. ("I'm gonna smash it!")
Hahaha. Mac would like the five grand.
Everybody dancing except for Dennis
Right before Dee said "Now what?" I noticed Dennis left the rocket launcher. Sure enough...
1=20211224

S13E02
Obviously Charlie or Frank have the other half of that puzzle.
"And so the game begins..."
1=20211225 AM

S13E03
The intro touches on a common trend where popular male media simply gets converted to female versions as opposed to just coming up with something better; in particular, I recently wondered if there would ever be a female James Bond, and essentially there were opinions that there should be better ideas created for women and people in general rather than simply converting the role of James Bond
"What's your secret?" "I'm an alcoholic."
Haha. Just stick it in.
I don't remember what episode Snail (Mary Lynn Rajskub) was from. [She first appeared in season five (S5E04) and then prior to this episode also appeared in S9E10]

This Shawn Dumont. I think he was the protagonist on a show called Dead Last [one of the protagonists; Tyler Labine; I also remember him from Reaper and I've been meaning to watch Tucker & Dale vs Evil]
Hehe. Them beating up on kids is hilarious.

S13E07
"We decided that isn't funny anymore."
Fake memories.
Episode of Seinfeld
Hahahaha. "It's hearing itself."
Smile. That was a good twist (inside Frank's head)
Hahahaha. They're pulling an Inception? [they begin to go around doing a reality check and realize it's Dennis]
Ha! They explicitly reference Inception and do the top thing. Poking fun in that the top doesn't stop but they're distracted by their phones. Also a second Charlie shows up.
1=20211225 AM

S13E08
Home Alone parody.
Why do they have bear traps?
Hahaha. Holy moly, he stepped in the trap.
Why doesn't he just release it?
1=20211225 AM

S13E09
Given this new information, since Mac threw Cricket out, I'm guessing the person in the green suit is Cricket
1=20211225 AM

S13E10
That was an AMAZING dance
I love the look on Frank's face as he finds himself in awe
"I get it."
1=20211225

S14E01
Haha. Haha. "Let's try ass-to-ass." (after they're all in place) Frank says, "Fuck this."
Hehe. So in fact they're making Frank and Charlie's guests ideal equivalents of themselves.
The way she cried from Dennis's comment (with references to death) makes it probably that Teddy was their son and he passed away
Haha. The camera pans out and they're not wearing pants.
One year. Great romantic comedy.
1=20211225

S14E02
Interesting. This show starts off with critiquing the industry for being so PC, and that's where this show hasn't been afraid to cover. Sure they've made some adjustments in response to the general culture, but they're still brave enough to write satire that's potentially offensive.
Hahahaha. Dee messes up and overlaps with Dennis.
1=20211225

S14E03
(20211225) The wiki says the following:
This episode along with, America's Next Top Paddy's Billboard Model Contest, Dee Reynolds: Shaping America's Youth, The Gang Recycles Their Trash, and The Gang Makes Lethal Weapon 6, were removed from streaming platforms, such as Hulu, due to the use of black face following the killing of George Floyd in 2020.


S14E04
Hehe. He came to their rescue again.
1=20211225

S14E05
Haha. Had to go back and pause to read his long text:
Dennis...I feel like you are ignoring me...I think this is all just a big misunderstanding because of these texts and you can't tell how I am feeling when I am texting. I was just trying to check in on you to make sure you are okay, just like everyone else in the group. We should meet up and get back on track...? Let us know that U R okay? OK? LOL u kno wut I mean...You aren't mad at me tho, right? I just want this trip to be da bomb for U.. I always try to put a lot of hard work into our relationship. I tell you that your face looks smooth, even when I find a wrinkle. I dye your hair, and I massage your pecks after a workout to keep you nice and limber, I make you shakes and I put in all this work for us so I can enjoy a smile on
It's funny because Charlie can't read, but proficient in his understanding of texting practices (caps, periods, sarcasm, didn't read, etc.)
Dennis calls Mac out on a lie, because Charlie can't read
Hehe. Frank ends up being the dumb ape.
Hahaha. Meerkat exhibit. 1=20211225

S14E06
Hehe. The spelling on his list.
Hahahaha. (They're not looking at each other) "Are you still here?"
As they're leaving, Mac wants clarification on the 10 vs 30%. Dennis says "It is whatever I say it is."
WTF is ammonia doing at the bar.
Haha. Charlie vomits on the waitress on account of the bleach.
1=20211226

S14E07
Hehe. Predetermined, free will, and faith in about less than five minutes
Hahahaha. Another guy has a pizza hat.
Smile. "I want ten shots." "Don't tell her what she needs."
1=20211226

S14E08
Smile. "I am an American! I can believe in whatever I want in any given moment based on what the argument I'm trying to make."
"I'll push him."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! "I wouldn't eat it Crick, it's full of loads."
1=20211226

S14E09
Smile. Haha. That's got to be one of the best line by a one-time appearance role on the show: "Hmm... Okay. Uh, do you two not understand gender?" Good delivery too.
Smile. A "wig" makes it look exactly the way she looked prior to the cut.
1=20211226

S14E10
Them returning and lighting up "Big Mo" was one of the most light-hearted moments in the show.
1=20211226

S15E01
Kanye West.
"Because you're not Forrest Gump!"
1=20211226

S15E02
Haha! "You know Don Cheadle?" "No. But I know the guy that plays him."
Hehehe. They made Dee into a Karen as the villain of the movie.
Hahaha. Tidal wave.
Wow. Dennis explains how he's become woke. Concludes with "Finger on the pulse. Finger on the puss."
1=20211226

S15E03
Hehe. The moment Dee turns crazy is all because of Charlie.
Smile. Charlie brings up the percentage shares and the look on Dee's face at the situation is priceless.
1=20211226

S15E04
Mac is happy at the thought of possibly being fucked by a monkey
1=20211226

S15E05
WTF. Split a first-class ticket. Is that even possible?
Smile. I definitely didn't expect Dennis to completely flatten it out...
That's a great conversation Mac has with his mom regarding his ethnicity.
Wow. I thought they were gonna put her on the roof, but in the trunk with legs sticking out is creative
1=20211226

S15E06
Smile. For Charlie who in the other episode couldn't rhyme to make Dee a Valentine's song, he was rhyming just fine here.
I guess it's comedic, but... would anybody really be so egotistic to deny having COVID?
"Well I agree with you, but I don't know what to do with her."
1=20211226

S15E07
"Say my name." [apparently the show has never revealed her name]
Smile. The twist with the guy Mac has been shadowing (boys)
Hahaha. The "meatball" is shaped like a turd.
I'm glad, due to Frank's meddling, that Shelley didn't get burned
Why didn't Dee just walk back to the castle? Why was she screaming?
1=20211226

S15E08
What a shocker. Dead
If he was 300 pounds, with five of them, that'd be sixty pounds each (which is pretty heavy).
I was wondering if they were going to reveal how his dad died and they eventually did...
Probably having a stretcher, although adding weight, would have made the trip easier.
HAHAHA. The body didn't land in the water
"Stand By Me situation"
1=20211226

S16E01
smile. 30000 total spent to rent a couch... while it's just a show, I'm certain this type of joke exists because of how common this situation is...
furthermore the subsequent "jokes" on not understanding inflation are similar
hehe tmnt
status quo
omg his face...
1=20231014

S16E02
I'm guessing it's actually loaded despite what Frank said.
Smile. He managed to nick both of them in one shot.
The title of the episode is "Frank Shoots Every Member of the Gang"
Smile. Frank taking a piss at the fire hydrant (after they're making a metaphor about putting down a dog)
Smile. Burn us with the cigarette lighter (implying that's what she did when he was younger)
Hehe. His sisters...
Hehe his new legacy shattered
Smile. Gets himself in addition to Mac and Charlie.
1=20231014

S16E03
Smile. Poking fun at themselves. A show where they make them look like jerks. Charlie is worried about if he's made to look stupid
Hehe. Got him a sixer but there's only four
1=20231014

S16E04
Took her phone...
Smile. Totally not suspicious. Though they appear not to be using clocks... so that's good
Waiting to see what the full acronym
Hahaha. "I used to fuck Lebron James"
Hahaha. "I'm grabbing your ding dong"
SINNED. DENNIS.
The opening of the episode is explained
Huh. This match is clearly timed. It's possible the earlier matches were also timed.
Hahahaha. "Kill the wi-fi"
That "victory" freeze frame is priceless.
1=20231014

S16E05
Smile. Bryan Cranston's monologue was great.
1=20231014

S16E06
hehe that theme song
first set of boobies...
hehe second time there's a discrepancy in phrasing between Frank and Dee. first was racist vs well a euphemism of racism and here frank outright uses "retarded" whereas Dee just refers to it
hehe they debate taking off the shirt
hehe that recreation and end...
1=20231015

S16E07
huh I don't remember what stories Artemis was in the past and why she would be attracted to Frank
hehe her character is good at bowling but she isn't
quickie with Frank; she said her character is a whore which is what attracted her to it in the first place
well of course the characters have always been mean to each other and mean in general. so poor sportsmanship is included (saying "gutter ball" during her turn). but its still irritating to watch... I like stories where they are generally being idiots versus outright mean. but I suppose the two overlap
somehow they rolled various gutterballs but there's no indication of this in the scores shown
hahahahaha that side talk ending with the scream is hilarious
1=20231016

S16E08
huh how was he able to take the call on his watch if he lost his phone.
all these complaints about servives nowadays is great (contrasts with last episode by a lot). why are there apps to be keys, apps to purchase items when the person taking the order is there (I recall having this complaint with like reward programs being apps instead of physical cards... but they can just be a digital card instead of a full blown app), and how everything being tied to our phone is a headache if we lose our phone.
so true... why does the representative have to re-ask for the information. seems better recently, most places associate the calling number to an accout and just ask to confirm some items but in the past, repeat of information has definitely happened and quite an annoying
that took a dark, unexpected turn (Dennis reaches into the man's chest, pulls out the heart, turns it into a diamond, and digests it)
the twist: he wakes up, his blood pressure went down, and it's revealed that all the people in the story were really people he encountered at the office (implying he had the ability to warp reality into a kind of self therapy)
what a great episode and end to the season
