PittTheElder posted:I really, really hope that the Waitress is in more than one episode this season, because there's no reason for her to not be in this one. Can only see that going as Charlie gets super smart, woos the waitress, then realises he is going to get dumb again so pushes her away as to not ruin the little time they had. I'm really looking forward to seeing what they do with the episode though, since I don't think they'll actually make him smart but instead it will be some sort of The Gang Breaks Dee twist.

Ror posted:It's OK, calm down... I've drunk some awful poo poo in my time. Despite living smack bang between the Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale (two of Australia's good wine making regions) I'm still known to buy box wine rather than just driving to cellar doors because it's easier. But can wine? Sweet Jesus. I feel like if you opened that can it would be empty except for a small note containing the number of a suicide hotline.

neckbeard posted:Maybe it was the longer, lighter, hair, but Waitress looked... a bit different in the face. I noticed that, I wonder if part of it was intentional to make her look more ditzy. Sefal posted:I lost it at the reveal of Charlie's invention. This episode did the same thing as The Gang Breaks Dee, where it made me think that they had actually produced bad fan fic and made Charlie smart, so I loved that reveal. The only bad thing about the episode was that it seemed to borrow quite a few Simpsons/Futurama jokes,

Harry posted:That ridiculous grin Dee gives after she lets go of the mouse trap was amazing. I'm a little surprised several people here actually thought Charlie was getting smarter though. The gang being so stupid in this episode (especially Dee doing that Homer Simpson level joke of holding onto the trap) made the episode feel off, which is why I started to think maybe they were going strange and actually making Charlie smarter.

ChairMaster posted:They only got hyper-stupid after they started huffing gas for like an hour. She wasn't originally holding onto the trap, this is how it went: Ah, that makes sense. Ariza posted:What was there besides the holding on to the trap gag? It's weird that this was the GoT writers episode. I definitely would not have picked up on that if someone didn't mention it. The holding onto the trap thing, the electrified cheese at the start was the same as Bart trying to grab an electrified cupcake.

DNova posted:According to this site: http://bloodalcoholcalculator.org/ 0.398 if you put in light beer, which is what they were drinking. Still high but Dee was unconscious, Charlie couldn't even speak anymore, and we know the gang are all extreme alcoholics so it's not really extreme for them.

I was pleasantly surprised that they didn't pull a dream ending on Charlie hitting the good ball. The whole time they were building up to him hitting a great shot I was thinking it was such a cliche of the show to do a shot where he hits it well then cuts to him doing something entirely different blind drunk, but they pulled a nice misdirect on the expectations there. Just goes to show that once again Charlie is the most competent member of the group.

Cojawfee posted:What exactly was the scam though? They bought airline miles and used those to buy steaks. They planned on contaminating the steaks (how would anyone even detect the contamination with the original plan?) with the chickens and then sending the steaks back to get cash. Where do they make money? They'd have to just pay off Frank's credit card as well as pay for those chickens. Not to mention that vacuum sealer. Frank already had the airline miles. They planned on unwrapping the steaks, putting feathers on them, then shrink wrapping them back up.

When I first started watching the show I resented Frank a bit. I assumed he had been forced onto the show by the network as a known name draw for marketing. Luckily he fit in straight away.

Pharmaskittle posted:Frank was at least once a very successful (if not normal) person, so I always imagine he's got like a 50/50 shot of being able to pass in regular society, depending on where his head's at that day. None of the other characters can really do that, outside of rare moments. Yeah, Frank is smart and very self aware. He just doesn't give a poo poo what anyone thinks anymore and does the things he does with the gang because he enjoys it.

SlipkPIe posted:What started as a show about middle-aged people playing young-ish people hanging out with one old person, is now about old people hanging out with one even older person. It'll never have the insane energy it used to, but they've managed to harness that into making these characters feel more pathetic than ever, and it totally works As far as I'm aware they've always played the characters at around their real ages. At the start of the series they were all late 20's.

I've really enjoyed the last three episodes, it's just the direction that feels slightly off. It seems a little more standard sitcommey if that makes sense. Not a complaint though, very happy up till now.

Up to now, Always Sunny has almost always done a perfect job of making it so that you are laughing at the characters for their idiocy when they do some horrific thing, rather than making the audience laugh with them.

potee posted:I don't think it matters that much since none of the gang would ever bother to actually vote. If there was a Florida 2000 type situation centered around Philly it would be a great episode to see how the gang had accidentally caused the result to come about by affecting a few people on that day, without ever revealing which way they swung it.

Always Sunny has changed in lots of ways, but it's the nature of the show taking it's characters seriously despite their insanity. They started off in their 20's, living a dream of owning a bar together. Now they're hurtling into middle age still in the same situation and the show acknowledges that. The changes in Dennis are my favourite for being some of the most subtle. He still acts basically the same, but the poo poo which once worked for him now fails most of the time.

ChesterJT posted:It's not 1930. Who the gently caress is laughing at blackface just for the blackface? Nobody under the age of 80 is a good guess. People are laughing at the joke, which usually revolves around the absurdity of blackface, because nobody watching the show actually thinks the blackface in and of itself is funny. My wife has a lot of family who live in Queensland, and a few months back they had an "Africa themed costume party". Guess what the costume was that her aunt and uncle proudly put on the family group chat.

ShoogaSlim posted:lastly, you could very clearly see the inside of the "bar" when they open it in the final scene and you can tell it's not the bar in there. fans of the show already know this but they hide it way better in every other episode. if you're gonna do an origin story then spend a little extra time on smoke and mirrors. did they blow all their budget on the cgi monkey in the next episode? In a show like Sunny I couldn't really care about that. I did like the low-tech solution of having a big truck parked opposite the bar to hide that area looking different now.
