Dennis was so incredibly happy about the RPG. As he should. RPG's are awesome; especialy that Model 7 Russian one.

I liked that episode a lot. It got a little weird toward the end but I like episodes that focus on their day to day lives more than the "concept" ones like the first episode or the water park/ski resort/etc ones.

I don't know about "still," but Charlie definitely made a passing comment about sex with her to Dennis.

Dee screamed "you screwed me!" which was a pretty clear double entendre. Also, even though the Waitress came up


I feel like this season's become a little more serialized this season; among all the changes to the formula that've been tried, I'm quite happy with this. "The Gang Turns Black" makes more sense to me now as a premiere; there seems to be a coordinated effort for the Gang to exercise their emotions a little more than usual across the season. I love Gay Mac, and how Mac's immediate embrace of any stereotype he can imagine let him do something genuinely kind for Dennis.

In my lovely goon fanfic dreams, every member of the gang reaches their own hosed-up and rear end-backwards version of peace, and the final season of the show is a family united against the world :jihad:

Take a look back at the flowers for Charlie episode. When he could and then couldn't say placebo. When he's in his element, he's a genius. When someone puts him on the spot, he's a bumbling moron.

I don't know how I knew it was going to be an RPG. When Mac rolled that crate in, I just immediately thought RPG.

In a few moments my neighbor is going to exit this building's ground floor, out onto the sidewalk. According to my math, from this height, I can kill him by pissing on him.
The only real issue I had with this episode was that the scene where Mac explained the situation (as he interprets it) to Charlie and the following one where Dee explains it to Frank, "Oh, this isn't about work, it's about working through emotions" felt pretty repetitive. It was basically just the same thing twice and it dragged a little. Besides that, a lot of good stuff in there. What's in that crate?!!

I will never understand the weirdo obsession this thread has with the insane theory that Dee and Charlie are secretly banging. As near as I can tell it's purely based on that one episode where they banged, they both felt super uncomfortable about it, and the episode ended with them being extremely eager to forget it ever happened and put things back to normal.

I guess in TVIV-speak that translates into "secret longstanding sex affair"?

It's funny because it used to be implied that they were at least semi-capable of running the bar and we were meant to assume they do it in between schemes, but now I guess they literally are not capable of doing it

In the first season they at least had some busy nights, even if it was mostly because they were letting underage people in.

That was the joke, like the leather shop in arizona. That they are all so on the same level that they independently come up with the same absurd things.

Billy Butler: Fat Guy by Day, Doubles Machine by Night
The gang is, unsurprisingly, inconsistent with their bar management. Sometimes they pay their mortgage 2 weeks late. Sometimes they're at their tipping point. Sometimes they lock customers in because 2 happened to walk in, sometimes they pack the house for a wet t-shirt contest. Sometimes they can play Chardee MacDennis all day, sometimes someone gets stabbed to death because Mac can't remember who all he has already allowed in the bar that night (okay, maybe that is also incompetence). Anyway, there are a surprising number of plot-lines that actually depend on Paddy's doing some amount of business.

Literally every thread in TVIV has numerous dumb-gently caress theories or straight up fanfic in it.

People here can't just watch a thing and enjoy it/hate it for what it is because they are utterly loving mental.

I'm not saying I'm writing elaborate fanfics about Dee and Charlie. In this season we find out that Dee and Charlie are secretly smoking together. This episode we find out that Dee really wants a valentine from Charlie. She didn't seem to care if anyone else gives her a valentine besides Charlie.

In a series where Fat Mac was stealing every scene for a year before they brought it up, it's not farfetched to think they are laying some groundwork. Dee has already ruined the waitresses' life like 2-3 times I could easily see Dee trying to sabotage the waitress in an attempt to win Charlie over, but she'll just like kill her via alcohol poisoning (probably on her birthday or something)

Mac and Charlie talking about "The yuck puddle" was my favorite part of the episode (I've found bones in there).

I liked the rest of the episode too, I've really enjoyed the whole season so far. Although PTSDee is definitely going on my "too hosed up to watch twice" list (drat did that one get dark).

What? None of this makes sense? The Waitress hates charlie and the entire gang and they brought up Fat Mac literally the first scene he was fat in?

It's not 'Fan-Fiction' Dee & Charlie have hosed on this show, and without that context Dee's plot in this episode makes absolutely no sense at all. She bought him chocolates too! Where is that even coming from?

I meant that Fat Mac shows up and is 'cultivating mass' immediately but we don't get the explanation until the very end of the season I think, not that they aren't teasing him mercilessly right away.

All-in-All this felt very much like a S4-S5 episode, the rest of this season has been pretty loony and this one felt so weirdly grounded.

Dee busting out the anthrax is the hardest I laughed at a show in a while. It just seemed so plausible that at this point the gang would casually send each other anthrax envelopes.

They've hosed before, the treat each other like normal humans outside the influence of the bar, they smoke together, they almost indulged in cannibalism together.... There is definitely something going on behind the scenes with those two, I figure they'll keep dropping hints for a while without anything concrete coming up.

This was a good episode.

It's outside the bounds of this show for one of them to be nice to the other for no reason. That's why it was so weird when it turned out the crate was a gift from Mac.

OK, maybe I am just a giant slut but I have slept with a bunch of my friends who I am still friends with and once you have already crossed that line it is a super easy one to cross again.

I'm not going to entertain fan fiction but Charlie would be a big improvement on a lot of the guys Dee has slept with.

They're nice to each other all the time, just the other two drag them down. Charlie even admitted to Dee once that he only treats her like poo poo because of peer pressure and he doesn't like doing it.


Edit: I realize we're agreeing with each other, but I don't think the rest of the crowd remembers that conversation. It's also what led to them loving.
