Of course more sexism this ep, and other ignorance.

Warning: Spoilers
This ep, as always, begins with a tasteless joke. This 'comedian' says that women dress revealingly on Halloween. ALL women? Really? More blanket statements.

Again women are portrayed as stupid. The only female roommate asks what the origin of Halloween is. The 'comedian' starts to explain, and she says never mind. Wow.... Next there is more antisemitism with making fun of Jewish traditions. Also where the boss of the 'comedian' makes fun of the dead man's name.

Then they make women seem all scheming by making the female roommate want to somehow claim a dead man's rent controlled apartment. She tries to scam people...wow. She says she will Photoshop herself into his photos. In one photo, he is in black and white and she is in full color. Really? She can use Photoshop, but can't make her photo in b&w, or did she just cut and paste. So are they saying she does not know what Ps is?

It's clear that this show is ripping off Seinfeld, very, very badly. This female room mate is supposed to be Elaine. Elaine was not just an empty headed person. She just happened to be in unusual positions. But this character puts herself into trouble. Many are wanting her to leave this show it's so bad. And the sexism is SO CLEAR that they even admit it. Why are they portraying women in such a negative way? Since they are sexist of course.

Also more racism as the white 'comedian' tells the token black guy that he does not follow anything he says. So he shows no respect for him to try to explain it...wow.

Also why are they friends with the rip-off Kramer character? WHY? Seems like they ALL hate him. What? I mean in Seinfeld, the reason why Newman came to Jerry's place was because he was KRAMER'S friend. But this guy is hated by all 3 room mates. So why is he there? Oh yes, since they need to rip off Seinfeld. I mean this unwanted guy is just stupid. REALLY? He wants to stop getting beat up so he dresses like a pinata? I mean Kramer was not stupid like this. Bad, Bad rip off just like the rest of the characters. *sigh*

Then they make fun of the female room mates dream of being independent....

The rest of the scenes are just pointless and make no sense. I mean is this a hipster show? It's bad on purpose? Or is it for kids that like this sort of brainless crap?

"How are men different than women?" A quote from this ep. *Shakes head* REALLY? Men and women, sure have differences but that is sexist comedy. If you actually have lived life and seen both genders you will see that they are practically the same. To make jokes on things that cannot be controlled is SICK.
