Quietly angry/exasperated Terry Crews is even funnier than loud angry/exasperated Terry Crews. The expanding circle of psychologists around Gina was great.

Haha Terry prolly has an easier time being a good dad for his daughters than a good dad for those idiots. Did anyone else see the painting Terry did of the captain in Kevin's office? "...yea I know about The Odyssey, and that other one with the wolf."

I loved this episode so much, in particular: *Kevin's dislike of Holt's coworkers was completely justified, but unnecessary. *I can only imagine how much of the budget goes towards props for Terry Crews to break. *The callback to Jeffords' choice for best cop movie. After that episode aired, the show got some ribbing from brainy smarties for referring to Breathless as Truffaut's instead of Godard's. *Jeffords continues to be one of the best leadership figures ever, and among the top 3 people on this show. He's great. I love him. *Corgi: As with others in this thread, my first thought was "Of course they have a corgi". *"Don't move as a group! You're not gazelles!"

Just thought of something. The fire extinguisher being empty near the end of the Super Bowl episode was maybe a callback to the fire extinguisher roller chair derby in the pilot? Also, I can't remember any show were I adored every character this much. Never leave me show.

I think it was more a reference to the fact that earlier in the episode, she smashed her computer monitor and then sprayed it with the fire extinguisher.

A REAL callback would have been if she had thrown some money on that computer monitor at the end of that bit.

The best line was Gina's line about constantly thinking about Richard Dreyfuss, hunched over, eating dog food.

What made me lose it was "I would make the perfect American president based on my skill set, dance ability, and blood lust" Also I have to say that I'm impressed with the restraints the writer have had with Terry Crews. I mean they haven't even made his pecs talk on their own yet, and we've barely seen him in just a tank top. I was expecting a lot more (even though it's hilarious) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNf606dfCb0 but instead they really layered his character and made it more about his personality than a one-note joke about a guy who's really in shape and yells a lot. His love of French New Wave is the funniest thing. He's definitely my favorite on the show, with Gina a close second. Twee as Fuck fucked around with this message at 00:13 on Feb 6, 2014 |

Davros1 posted:The best line was Gina's line about constantly thinking about Richard Dreyfuss, hunched over, eating dog food. Nah it's Terry Crews completely selling the line "film is a writers' medium." I always thought he was kind of a one note, crazy guy actor but he's been the most pleasant surprise from this show so far. And I literally laughed out loud at Boyle's umami line.

If they dropped Boyle/Diaz and brought Marilu Henner on as a semi-regular, this show would be just about perfect.

Still Fluxing posted:Apart from everything else I love about this show (which is everything), I really enjoy Scully and Hitchcock's camaraderie. I always felt too bad for Park & Rec's Jerry to laugh at him, but Scully and Hitchcock seem to genuinely enjoy each others' presence even though no one else does. Scully and Hitchcock are a lot like Pogue and Mahone, the lazy, useless, barely-functioning alcoholic detectives from The Wire, Michael Schur's favorite show.

She's funny, and I really like Chelsea Peretti, but she does feel like she's from a different show altogether. Like she's not actually human, but a walking joke/sarcasm machine. I hope they do more with her.

Deadpool posted:That definitely surpassed the Thanksgiving episode as my favorite. That was one of the best half hours of a sitcom I've seen in a long time. I had trouble picking a thread title there were so many amazing lines. Wasn't it Diaz who said "Exquisite" (referring to Gina's insanity)? Fantastic, fantastic episode. How many callbacks / long-term payoffs were there? It's as if nearly every other episode in the season has just been setup for a terrific punchline.

What the hell, I have now seen that clip twice in my life, and both were within the last 4 minutes. I saw it as a 16 second video on facebook as "me when my song comes on in the gym", and then opened up a bunch of threads here to catch up. That is the damndest thing. But yeah he's, uh, doing much better now.
