Yeah, that last episode was fantastic. Making me go back and fill in the gaps of all the episodes I haven't seen. Which is like half the show. But a truly great entry in the series finale hall of fame.

So I will learn to live with it. Because I can live with it. I can live with it.



I wonder what Scott is going to be doing now that the TV show is over. When the show was in production he talked about it taking up like literally his complete day each day running it. Now that it's over he just has the podcast and Earwolf to run, wonder what cool new content he'll be working on now that he has free time.

AV Club had an interview and he said once they wrapped they then did the tours, and then something really intensive due in February, but didn't state what. So he's kept himself as insanely busy as ever it seems. Scott just don't stop.

I wish I could get into the tv show, but it just doesn't do it for me. It's weird because I obviously do like the people involved, and they obviously put a lot of work into it, but it mostly just leaves me cold.

And now for something completely different
The finale was brilliant, but I feel like the second to last ep with Adam Scott being a timecop and the surprise appearance of THE TIMEKEEPER were awesome as well.

Me too, i think for me it's mostly the difference between the great improv and quickness of the show versus a prepared skit

The TV show kind of feels like if you had a very skillful editor cut down an episode of the podcast to the bare essentials. Still very funny, a little breathless, lacking that loose magic of the podcast, but still with a ton of charm.

Give it another shot by jumping into a latter season. I thought the first was pretty rough but It Gets Better.

Birthday boys first season was funny, then the second was pretty much unwatchable, not sure why you want a 3rd. Also CBB is great and you couldn't be more wrong.

All That was transphobic

The entire 90s was transphobic.

Also, totes sarcastic. Nickeloden shows weren't entirely devoid of merit, but I really despise the reverence given to those shows by my generation. Like, Pete and Pete and parts of Sabrina hold up, but that's about it.

"SNL For Kids!" is a great idea though, there should really be a version for every generation. Just fill it with YouTube stars who are already way more rich and famous than anyone on Earwolf.

I liked getting an update on the audio recording he played last time, though.

It's too bad because Moshe is a favourite - at least his You Made It Weird last week was a great time.

He had an amazing appearance on The Chris Gethard Show and cited himself as a big fan of it while Jason Mantzoukas was a guest, so I'm guessing he'd enjoy it more than being offended.

Are the Showalter/Brittain/Rowley (457) and Pemberton/Sher/Theus Jr. (453) episodes worth listening to?

457 is pretty good IIRC

First one's great, second isn't an essential ep or anything but I found it enjoyable. Nice to hear from some new/nonregular guests, the girl from The Middle was surprisingly game.

His crime scene janitor in 457 was enough to put it in my Top 10 of the year.

My favourite part of that episode was the fact that him spending the entire episode inside a dumpster was made funnier by imagining him actually being like James Admonian's portrayal of Paul Giamatti.
