    Honestly

    I think it's kind of amazing how well the show gives you these awful things to laugh at but doesn't really ever implicitly or explicitly approve of, as a piece of media, the same things

    It's really hard to do and almost everything fails spectacularly at it

    I love Mac's criticism of Dennis the most

    The Dennis system is what convinced me to go back and give this show a chance.

    How the fuck has Paul Rudd not aged at all.

    one of my favorite things about the dennis system is how, after he introduces it, it becomes a constant part of his interactions with women

    specifically, i love how in Thundergun Express, he's furiously trying to Demonstrate Value and keeps getting tripped up

    Also the implication is a great episode because it gets turned back on him.

    I hadn't heard about the Wet Hot series until I saw this thread on Saturday. I rewatched the movie that night, and thought I would watch the first episode after. I watched five, and finished them the next night. Now I want more. So much more.

    I forgot how much I loved the movie, and Paul Rudd is fucking great. Doug aged poorly(I think he's made to look worse than he normally does though).

    Wow Niles Crane looks pretty good compared to the movie as well.

    His character was probably the weirdest paper of FDAC

    He had no real ties to the cast till the movie and did basically nothing in the show but it would have felt off if they got back literally everyone but him so they needed to include him

    I liked him in the show, to be honest.

    Nice little diversion

    First time I've been disappointed by a fight in Banshee. The beheading wad cool but they built that fight up so much I expected something epic and the whole thing was over in a minute.

    I think even more importantly than getting David Hyde Pierce back, is that they got Rob Huebel in there playing a jerk

    Also probably one of the most accurate depictions of university faculty politicking.

    So regarding RHAS

    When Bradley Cooper says "hey everybody, it's me! DJ Ski Mask!", I'm pretty sure that's not Bradley Cooper's voice.

    We went back and played it like five times, and it sounds a lot like Chris Pratt.

    I saw someone complaining that Chris Pine's part should have been played by Chris Pratt and I wanted to slap them. I like Chris Pratt! Chris Pratt doesn't have to be in literally everything! Why are people trying to make me hate Chris Pratt!

    This has just been pitched to me and now I am going to be incredibly disappointed if The Americans doesn't cast Michael Showalter to play Ronald Reagan

    I have also heard another pitch for a series that is basically The Americans, but with Christopher Meloni and Jon Hamm as married government assassins

    I watched whas this morning and thought it was okay but aside from a few great bits I didn't really get the fuss

    I'm 5 episodes into the show and I think it's way more consistently funny

    I am not a fan of this episode with Charlie and the rich girl.

    It's really the first time Charlie comes off as completely evil and it seems out of character.

    Did you forget that Charlie kidnaps a newspaper critic because he didn't like what he wrote about the bar?

    Because that is all Charlie.

    That was more knee jerk. He's knee jerk crazy, not manipulative crazy.

    They show in some more episodes that Charlie is pretty manipulative, when he wants to be.

    Everybody should check out Playing House on USA. It has Lennon Parham and Jessica St. Claire for its leads. Really really funny.
