I was hoping Queef would raid the compound with his carpentry tools.

I was stressed that Gideon was going to get shot at the end, glad he made it out safe.

Keif is the perfect himbo, I love him.

I am unsure how many times I exclaimed "Goddamn I love this show" during this episode, but it was a lot.

If you see something suspicious, bomb it!

One of my favorite tropes in TV is “characters from different storylines are connected but don’t really know each other” so no one knowing who Kief was really got me good.

Even better/funnier was only like 3 episodes earlier, he performed his fire dance at the Cousins Night and he's been at almost every Sunday lunch until this season and they still have 0 awareness of who he is or his actual name

I think they are completely aware of him, it’s just they know he’s Kelvin boyfriend and don’t want to bring that up.

Eli called him Queef last season when he was thanking Keefe and Kelvin for helping him with PT after he got shot up.

Not surprised that McBride directed a straight up horror episode. Good poo poo. I kinda want a monster truck of my own.

The funny thing is they absolutely should know him, they just don't care about him enough to even know his name.

It was mentioned before but the entire writing team is just so spot on with having a bunch of blowhard fragile people forced into situations where they have to face themselves and their actions and reconcile that. It was nice seeing the siblings make nice for a minute.

I laughed a whole lot at the policewoman saying something along the lines of "Maybe he'll get sick of dealing them and let them go" and Martin saying "I said the exact same thing".

A great show has a dairy cow almost get hit by a monster truck while rednecks hoot and holler.

In a perfect show, that monster truck runs over that fuckin dairy cow to the even greater joy of the bumfuck militia. I'm glad we're watching perfect television. Never change McBride.

We've said, "you need to go lay down, get some night-nights" to our kids enough times now they've started saying it too, and I can't wait for them to one day figure out where it's from.

One of my favourite little things in all the McBride/Hill shows is the unnecessary pluralization of words. Is this a real southern quirk or is it something they made up?

it’s not a plural s, it’s a possessive s

My guess is that it's real, McBride grew up in the South, as did Hill, and Edi Patterson is from Texas. The "now"s Baby Billy drops all the time are definitely real to the accent.

Eta: ^^the unnecessary possessive S shows up in other American dialects too

proper usage would be something like, “ain’t no mr. k’s anymore. that somabitch died back in 2019. just a plain ol’ piggly wiggly’s now. loving teeter’s got the rest”

I think you're all talking about different things. There is a southern trope where you add a possessive to some brand name like Kroger's when the store is just named Kroger. But McBride shows also do a thing where random words will get pluralized.

TrashMammal

pretty sure it’s the same root. that legit extra s gets attached to other things by people who are either trying to be funny or who have said something the funny way so long that they get stuck saying it that way

It's not even necessarily McBride trying to do a southern colloquialism, part of his idiosyncratic dialogue is just deliberately fumbling words.

haha, same here. My daughter hasn't started saying it, but eventually she'll come around.


That said, another A+ episode. Season 2 was a little up and down for me, after an otherwise stellar and near-perfect season1, but this show is really hitting its stride in s3. It wasn't even the funniest episode to me, but it was so well written and directed that I was even more impressed by it. I'm glad they do such a good job with resolving plot elements (ie: the kidnapping) to move things along, but I really can't wait to see where this all goes.

I loved Gideon's "oooo wee sucker!' when he was barrelling at the rednecks on their ATVs. Which reminded me, I wonder if that rival church is ever going to come back in play?

Either way, I'm just glad Cousin Karl is still cool and good.
