I finally caught up with the 12th season and ... yeah, not feeling it. A lot felt off, like the actors all had better things to do, both literally and figuratively. It seemed like they were trying to fit in their scenes between other commitments (sometimes in a meta way, given Glenn's stint on "Fargo" and his character's Fargo-based double life), and a lot of the jokes felt particularly lazy (like the dildo bike, which was used not just in South Park but Burn After Reading as well, go figure) or really uncomfortable (like not once but twice using the graphic fantasy gunning down of a person - a child - of color for a cheap shock gag). There were some high points, but also a lot of awkward lows, and if the final episode were the final episode (apparently there will be at least 2 more seasons) I would be OK with that. But hey, 12 seasons, even with a few duds, is a pretty good run for any show.

It's already on Hulu. Season 12 still isn't up on either though.

they finally added season 12 to hulu. "the gang turns black" might be the worst episode of the show since the pre-frank era.

how do people feel about "The Mick"? it's kind of Always Sunny-lite, only it has Dee and actual children as opposed to Dee and manchildren (she is also a child in both scenarios)

why hasn't there been similar issues with Kaitlin Olson appearing on The Mick? Is it because Glenn is more involved with the writing?

Is there a good mid-series episode to start with this? I don't feel like starting from the top, just watching 3-4 of the better eps that aren't filled with callbacks.
― Chuck_Tatum, Thursday, 6 September 2018 20:36 (five years ago) link
Seasons 3-5 are pretty peak and most any random ep will be a fine place to begin.

I didn't like S01E01 at all. Now I think it's one of the best comedies ever
― imago, Thursday, 6 September 2018 20:41 (five years ago) link
Also this show never dropped off
My go-to entry point recommendation is The Gang Dances Their Asses Off
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 6 September 2018 20:43 (five years ago) link
Of what I've seen (and I'm behind at this point, I don't watch a lot of TV anymore) there's very few episodes I really don't care for. And I like the character of Carmen, Mac's trans girlfriend, but I do wish she weren't played by a cis actress and they weren't throwing the t-slur around (though certainly the characters probably would). Anyway this show is very good.
― faculty w1fe (silby), Thursday, 6 September 2018 20:45 (five years ago) link
Picking one, I'd say go for The Gang Solves the Gas Crisis.
Yeah thats a solid one
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 6 September 2018 20:51 (five years ago) link
yeah that one captures the character dynamics really well. the gang gets invincible is also a nice gateway to fall into the rhythms of the series.
