The most incredible part is that he's been screwed over by NXIVM twice

The cat turds coming back to bite him from a previous season was great, too.

The self cleaning toilet was amazing, but also was him cracking up when asking that lady if he could come with her to burning man, like he knew how ridiculous it was to ask and the fact that she agreed made it so much better.

Why do cat turds clog up the toilet, anyway? I'd assume that turds are turds and of course they'd go in the toilet

I'm pretty sure it's the litter attaching to the pipes and expanding due to moisture then drying. . It probably forms something like concrete over time.

Sameish reason that you're not supposed to out a lot of coffee grounds or dough down the sink.

People have successfully potty trained cats to stand on toilet seats and poop and pee in human toilets. Plenty videos of it on YouTube showing it. As previously stated the problem has nothing to do with the poop

This season's central theme seems to be "New York is hell". There's no toilets, poop everywhere, and you're subject to a constant cacophony of Godfather horns. (After today's episode, I feel the urge to rewatch Safe.)

This show makes it seem like every person that lives in New York is completely insane about one topic. Just batty as hell obsessed about something crazy, like how many rats you see in the park every week

I want to know how they find people for the in-home interviews. Recently rewatched the one where the guy thinks he's the reincarnation of John Adams and that his wife is the reincarnation of John Adams' son.

Not every person, but when you have 8 million people in that tight of a space, you get a lot more weirdo's.

She's either delusional or making poo poo up (or both).

Frankly the weirdest person in this episode is Bert from West Virginia if that other woman is to be believed. A friendship-ending argument over whether or not you can drink Roundup is amazing.

I have actually met some of the weirdos who drink Roundup. I still don't know why it's a thing.

This show continues to be a masterclass of how to plot a thru line.

I can't think of a show that delivers such a consistent "where is this going" while also completely paying off the initial bits as this one.

This might be the last season of this show, but can't wait for whatever Jon Wilson hits up next.

So I watched the scaffolding episode a couple of years ago and for whatever reason never continued the show. I finally revisited it last week and I binged the whole thing (until the current episode).

I can't believe I slept on this. Absolutely amazing, and I'm sad it's not more popular - though I guess it got renewed so I can't complain. Like it even more than Nathan For You or The Rehearsal.

Also, re: the last ep, I was so pissed when I saw he lost whatever it was to loving John Oliver. I can only imagine it was an award for the Most Animal Jokes.

EDIT: Also, that bit where he said his landlord moved to Florida or something and it showed a different person than Mama made me go.. loving what.

Also, the fact that he always said "Hey Mama" with the exact same intonation, even seasons later, was hilarious. Like other people said this show is so dense I legitimately thought each episode is an hour until I checked.

Also there was an interview with John on The Guardian a few days ago

Yeah, same. I assumed he was loving with us to see if we even remembered what she looked like or something.

Looking at the pumpkin on the truck and he's like "Ever seen that movie Sorcerer?" was incredible. This show is unbelievable and I tell everybody to watch it, even though its a hard sell because the reality of the show is pretty hard to explain.

I feel like he has to acknowledge his 2nd unit crew at some point. So far they've been maintaining kayfabe that all footage is shot by John Wilson himself within the show.
