Then Country Mac comes along and just acts like himself and the gang all loves him, even when he dragged them along to oil up bodybuilders. Country Mac really was a great addition to the show just to highlight how horrible Mac is to himself.

Country Mac is that OP character in a video game that needs to be killed off right away because he could destroy the last boss in one single blow.

I loved how none of the gang could come to terms with Cricket even being invited to one of their homes.

Surprised that some people here didn't like the last joke. I thought it was pretty fuckin hilarious. The commentary was pretty hamfisted, but that was the only section of it that I actually liked

My roommate and I both outloud said tho "uh, what the gently caress?????" at those last seconds. E: like most people here, I like all the jokes as their own, but overall it seemed like a weird flow. After a second viewing I think it holds up for the season, but man that was a weird experience. goldblums eyes fucked around with this message at 01:57 on Jan 30, 2015 |

The best part is that they were right: Cricket wasn't invited to the thanksgiving dinner, he just showed up unannounced hoping to score some free food. The last episode had some ups and downs, but I loved seeing a mildly annoyed Frank get slowly chased by a senile German doctor with a giant net. "We have to catch ze froggie~!"

I do find it hilarious that the least selfless thing the gang ever did - getting Pete away from them was due to their own selfish desire to not hang out with him.

If you don't know, shipping patients out to save money and basically make them somebody else's problem is something that really happens: http://www.sacbee.com/news/investigations/nevada-patient-busing/article2577189.html

Weird episode, the A plot with Mac, Charlie, Cricket and Pete was pretty strong and also a rather clever subversion of the audience's expectations given the descriptions of Pete in the high school reunion episode but the B plot kinda did nothing for me, Dennis getting diagnosed was good but it felt like the only worthwhile joke in that entire bit.

My favorite part of that episode is how easily Frank accepted that he was Froggy. "Oh yeah. I see that. I remember that now."

I think I felt bad for Pete more than I laughed at the usual antics. It seems like all of the other people the gang has screwed over will shake it off and move on*. Pete, though, is really messed up and trusted the wrong people to be his support base. He really brought the episode down. The best thing is to just ship him off an never think about him again. *except Cricket of course. But I don't feel bad for him at all. Maybe I have donkey brains.

I hope Pete comes back as Psycho Pete realizing that the gang did him wrong. And he leads all those with beef with the gang, to take them down.

Well, he kind of gets a happy ending though. Having half a dozen friends* buy you a train ticket to LA and then see you off with a little dance party probably left him with a nice warm feeling inside.

Honestly how they mentioned him in the high school reunion episode doesn't fit with Pete in this episode, since it wasn't the gang making rumors about him it was Fatty McGoo saying that he called threatening to burn down the school and the stuff about him eating his family, which I just can't see her just telling lying about the phone call since she got extra security

Like it wasn't like the gang to totally misinterpret someone and then totally force that vision of them on themselves and everyone else. Dennis was a golden god in high school. Sending Pete away was just like those two people bringing a bum from LA to Philly also.

It was also two years before 'Psycho Pete Returns' so he was likely less well-adjusted at that time, but yeah it doesn't really fit.
