Let Me Tell You Something About....
MrBluenote18 April 2022
Ahhhh.... the "men's support group episode". I really enjoyed this one. No it wouldn't be at the top of my list of my favorite in the series.

....but the scene when Allan comes home and see's the group is priceless.

Harry Dean Stanton steals this scene. (In a good way). What few lines he had, he had me laughing so hard I had to pause the show.

Just my two cents worth.

Problematic relationship between Charlie and Alan

Warning: Spoilers
It first one(night) episode of the second season establishes(constitutes) a good episode but slightly disappointing for several reasons. First of all in view(sight) of guest luxury stars in presence such Sean Penn, Elvis Costello we could expect in better, has more inventiveness. The scenario is rather thin and the humor works especially thanks to the charisma of the actors in presence. Charlie is here at the height of his(her) cruelty to his staggering brother of clumsiness. The nasty comic walks(works) at top speed(full capacity).Furthermore, this episode does not stand out completely and is especially considerable for his(her) distinguished guests who do not leave too much their usual registers. In any case the everything remains completely amusing and nice with an Alan sticking in magnificent looser.

How can others like this one?

First season was across the board on point. Funny. Engaging. Based on character relationships and how they work for and with each other.

This episode starts second season off with simply "look who I know" and "now we have a bigger budget to pay more celebrities". I found it rather boring. I don't know how anyone could have liked this episode. It wasn't bad. It was just boring. The only Good part was to let the guest stars "be themselves" which felt organic and like a real group coming together. But it wasn't a normal Episode: it wasn't about characters existing and living together but was more like an essay on if men can get together and really talk about things instead of the stereotype of men don't share anything with each other, grunt and only Watch/talk sports and nothing real.
