I just hit Season 4 and man, this show stayed in 4:3 so much longer than I remember. But they already ditched the newspaper headline intro, which I was assuming wouldn't happen until the move to HD.

S3 is when they finally went all-in on "Roger having hundreds of personas is a key part of his identity"; the "We have to hide Roger!/You're taking a risk by going outside, even in costume!" stuff lasted maybe 40 episodes.

The best part of the bowling episode was the animations that played when someone got a strike.

This reminds me that I've still never watched the Moonbeam City episode about the bowling animation killer.

(If you missed Moonbeam City, it was a Comedy Central series about 80's future cops from...Jesus, nearly a decade ago. Shares AD's willingness to go very broad and goofy for the sake of a joke, and to spin out into intense, high-concept B-plots. Only ran one season due to the usual "Well, we put you after South Park and you're not immediately as successful as South Park, so you're done" Viacom poo poo. Give it a shot, it's on Paramount Plus.)

Ooof, losing Moonbeam city hurt. There were some bad episodes, but when it focused on character humor and surrealism instead of cheap gross out humor (and to be clear I'm not above gross out humor, it's just that the gross out humor on Moonbeam city was consistently unfunny) it could be really great, and it was such a unique looking show with a sick synth soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1phEs15sNNM&ab_channel=NightClub-Topic

Also, I think the show has been better since it moved to TBS because they finally figured out what to do with Klaus, Hayley, and Jeff. Klaus's "Upbeat self-sabotaging Florida dirtbag" personality is entirely an invention of the TBS era, and while "Lazy but weirdly motivated and driven when she has to be or wants to be" has always been Hayley's personality it's only recently (or I guess not so recently since the show has been on TBS for years at this point) that the writers have really played that up and let her be as bizarre and silly as the rest of the family instead of mostly just shoving her into the straightman role. Jeff is unchanged, but he now gets paired up with non-Hayley characters (in addition to getting some good episode and subplots with Hayley herself) which let's him play a part in an assortment of different storylines and gave us episodes like Wild Women Do and Exquisite Corpses.

Sidenote: Did anyone else notice that Exquisite Corpses actually has Jeff, Roger, and Francine make an Exquisite Corpse when they're coming up with their business idea? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exquisite_corpse
I somehow didn't make that connection until I rewatched the episode on Hulu (probably because I had just seen the episode title)

In all fairness, hate-watching TV shows & movies can be fun. If you just hate a show because it's lovely and not funny-bad, I'm not sure why you'd bother continuing to pay attention to it, let alone posting in a thread about it, but that's just me. :shrug:

Has everyone voted for the next Roger persona? I almost picked the goth girl, but in the end I had to go with the true crime podcaster because by GOD that would be a hilarious idea for an episode (10 bucks says all the murders she podcasts about are ones Roger committed, like those frat boys he killed after they refused to pay for a limo ride)

That would be pretty amazing if Steve was depressed because he misses Debbie, and Roger's solution is to make him hate goth chicks as much as possible.
