Let the record show that this is a great episode. The cut backs to the courtroom are drat funny. Also the amazing surprise ending to their story.


And to add a great small detail to this, Charlie is constantly organizing papers and shoving them in front of Dennis for the "defense". Initially, Dennis handwaves them away, but eventually get irritated enough to bark "Stop handing me papers!" at Charlie just before one of the later cuts away from the courtroom.

EDIT: Also, the cut back from Mac's letter.

(Mac proudly pantomimes bat swing as Dee finishes letter before realizing whole courtroom is laughing at him)
Mac: Well, if you read it out of context...
Dennis: There's no right context.

Speaking of favorite moments and the glory that will be this weeks episode, one of my all time favorite moments is when Dennis is beating up Frank in Lethal Weapon 5 and just mutters, "Lazarus!" under his breath.

Am I missing something, or wasn't that Frank's character's name? My favourite line from that episode was his delivery of 'suck an egg?!'

hahaha, wait...Didn't the guy Charlie is playing get his arms ripped off in Lethal Weapon 5?

Edit: I was wrong. He has his arm broken, then he falls out a window and is run over by a UPS truck.

You've never heard of a milk stout or at least a pork chop cooked in beer? The people I work with drink Left Hand Milk Stout all the time.

I quite liked this episode. It felt somewhat more plot-heavy than a lot of the other episodes, which made it a little stranger to watch, but I didn't think this detracted from my enjoyment of it. Though I haven't seen Charly, Flowers for Algernon is one of my favourite science fiction stories as it deals less with using technology as metaphor and more on a particular part of what it means to be human and the way it interacts with other internal forces.

I've felt the theme for this season has been about success, more so than the previous seasons due to the realization of dreams. Dee becomes famous, Country Mac being what Mac wants to be, the award episode, the robbery episode and now Charly becoming intelligent. Yet as it's a comedy, nothing good will ever happen. Comedy tends to accurately reflect the time in which they are made due to the nature of taboo being a measure of culture, we fear taboo. Being that this season is focusing on success more so than previous seasons is interesting due to the nature of the current economic climate. Viewing the entire series is interesting as it started on the cusp of a financial crisis and has been running alongside it. The episodes swing between interpersonal relationships and that of the world outside the bar, with the former being structured similar to classic family sitcoms of the 80s and the latter more critical of social faux pas and parodying the political, which could be argued as being more contemporary (partly due to the nature of technological advancement, comedies can now take place more easily outside of studios) and in doing so is further bound to comment on the culture of America in the early 21st century. It will be interesting to view the show in thirty or fifty years to see how it ages. The Marx Brothers, The Flintstones and The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air already say quite a lot about the time in which they were made, I like to think that if one could rigorously analyse contemporary comedy that they would get a deeper understanding about the spirit of the moment.

I also liked the bit where they huffed gasoline. Armitage Shanks. And the fake language.

From the trailer it looks like Mac and Dennis still can't decide who plays who, so they switch roles... again.... That was probably the funniest part of the original for me. That and just Dennis' full-on Aussie Mel Gibson in general.

It's not encrusted...usually at least. Usually it's soaked in salty water for a while to make the skin/part of the inside salty. Just giving a potato a salty crust seems like a terrible idea Charlie/Frank would do to get their electrolyte levels up or something.

What? No, it's literally a thing. A very tasty, very popular thing. It's salt and oil and it crisps the gently caress out of the skin, and adds delicious flavorings.

Gordon Ramsay just gastropubbed in his pants reading that menu. I can just see him so excited exclaiming to the owners "you aren't serving baked potatoes, you are serving salt skinned potatoes!" (This is the UK Kitchen Nightmare Ramsay, not Hell's Kitchen.)

The longer I look at that menu the more it bothers me. Decided to capitalize Salmon, but not Cod. I don't know what a white marble farm is, but I am guessing they do more quarrying than pork raising, unless they meant a proper name and somewhere local. They point out that the pork gets the Left Hand Milk Stout treatment, but the fish gets "fresh Alaskan cod beer batter" which sounds a bit fishy, chunky, and not right for a batter.

I know, every restaurant these days feels the need to make everything local, gourmet, and 5 descriptions too long, but at least keep it consistent. (I will defend the salt skinned potato choice. Those things are good.)
