What's everyone's favourite episode of RSS? Listened to them all when they came out, but has been a while.

The one that sticks out to me was when they had the interview date with a bachelor contestant I believe.

Also anytime they reviewed shark tank.

Why are there guests other than Sean and Hayes? I don't care for that.

There's two others but it's still very much the S+H show.

There was a great moment in episode three I believe where they talked about making show contestants pick between their significant other and a million dollars, I remember that being hilarious. e: Yep, episode three, they propose an idea that would revolutionize reality tv as a throwaway bit. I would watch a Sean-and-Hayes-created reality show in a heartbeat.

And that's why I was forced to surgically attach your hands to your face.
They reviewed a reality show where one of the contestants only had one hand, and they kept throwing physical challenges at them. They ripped that show to shreds, and at the end Sean basically dropped character and said "so anyway, that show honestly made me upset and it should never have existed." That entire episode was amazing.

The most HH thing they could've done was guest on CBB as themselves, as someone asked earlier. 300lbs of irony doing a serious interview on a podcast that never has serious interviews. So twisted....

Humor is subjective and one of the worst things is people talking about what is and is not funny.

That said, if you don't like Hollywood Handbook, you're a dumb garbage person.

The new episode feels like Scott is interviewing gimmick free characters who are just weird mirrors of Scott's interview style, if that makes any sense.

HH has the best music cues for its script and I'm glad this standard has made it across to CBB.

Absolutely one of the greatest eps in a while. Sean and Hayes were in rare form. The "thoughts a bug should be having" bit was sublime.

Most definitely. There are probably a few inside jokes that made it sweeter for me, but that's definitely their style.

I guess I haven't listened to the episode where Engineer Brett steps into the Teaser Freezer, because it got me, I was crying from laughter. Some good clips on the best of so far.

I'm super happy for their well-deserved and long-time-coming surge in popularity, but it is still wildly surreal to see HH in the top ten comedy podcasts on iTunes.
