Is it truly the greatest sitcom of our time?
>>
Funniest live action show ever made. I wish more shows followed the formula of every single character being an irredeemably degenerate scumbag.
>>
>>222934703
Eastbound and down, Vice Principles.
>>
>>222934646
if they had ended around seasons 8-11, they absolutely would be. but they've ruined their legacy with all the dogshit seasons since then. should have pulled a Seinfeld and quit while they were on top.
>>
>>222934646
Just finished season 6 it's pretty great sofar.
>>
>>222934646
Is it true they appologized for a lot of their early episodes on their podcast?
>>
>>222935739
Yes
>>
>>222934646
Why was Frank suddenly so afraid of bridge people in the newest episode?
>>
>>222934734
Nah, even the newer stuff is better than 99% of sitcom content, cynical retards like you who just like to make vague complaint and don't even watch the new stuff would still complain no matter what season they stopped.
>>
There wasn't even a single joke in the last episode.
>>
ya gotta make it sexy, it's all about hips and nips or else I don't get to eat.
>>
>>222937131
Its not a stand up routine, its a situation comedy, the humor doesn't generally come from telling silly jokes, but from portraying comical situation.
>>
>>222937124
When was the last time that we saw them in the bar?
>>
it had a good run but it should have ended a long time ago
>>
>>222936889
>just consume and don't ask questions fellow goyim
>>
>>222937222
>Just make vague insults and don't even try to apply them to the current context, fellow irrational retard.
>>
>>222937160
When they were reviewing their psych results before going back to school and they had frank's wedding where his fiance's head fell off in the bar.

No, this faggot fucked it up after season 7 with his gay faggit shit.
>>
>>222937400
>dancing with a woman is gay, I want more plot lines about turning into a gay bar and getting gay raped by the clients
>>
So Charlie's mom just...dies offscreen? They don't say how? And the episode itself doesn't even have a "dedicated to" homage at the end of the episode? That seems rude.
>>
>>222937521
Tough guys don't dance, unless they're Russian or Ukrainian.
>>
>>222937540
And they didn't even bring in the twins for the funeral.
To be fair, though, she got her homage at the end of the last episode of last season.
>>
>>222937543
Yea tough guys date trannies and only let them do hand stuff until the surgery.
>>
>>222936889
The newer stuff is completely unwatchable to anyone but jews and jew accessories
>>
I liked the back to school episode because I'm late 30s and back in college for another degree
>>
>I like this show
>5 posts later
>the thread is about trans people and Jews for no reason
I hate American so damn much
>>
>>222937728
Politics play a role in the show turning to shit. If you don't want politics mentioned then you don't really want to talk about the show
>>
>>222937728
incel scum ruins everything

>>222937769
retarded faggot
>>
>>222937672
There is that vague cynical retardation I was talking about.
But we all know you hate the show because of the way they negatively portray jew lawyers.
>>
>>222937728
You go girl, its not like the show has trans and jew characters called out by name or anything.
>>
This season currently airing is quite lame

Blackface and saying the N-word is not cool.

yeah
i did like last season for the most part but they're back to forgetting to actually write jokes
>>
>>222934646
1-8 yes but it's been shit so long the old seasons have been stained retroactively
>>
>>222937830
Except when black people do it, then its stage craft and comradery.
>>
>>222937830
it's all about the right shoe polish
>>
>>222937835
>actually write jokes
That is a million dollar idea.
>>
Anything past s12 is trash. S13 they started looking grotesque and bogged, particularly dee, and they just refused to acknowledge this and joke about it, so as to not hurt each other's feelings or whatever. At that moment the show stopped being sunny
>>
>>222937833
retarded incel faggot
>>
>>222936889
I watched for a long time out of loyalty. I wanted to keep liking the show, I'm not a cynical person and genuinely tried them with an open mind. But the seasons past 12 were legitimately awful. Maybe one or two decent episodes per season, at best. I could get into my actual criticisms, but I know you aren't really interested in hearing them and would just dismiss them no matter what I say, so I'm not going to bother wasting my time on that discourse. This is just the way I feel and you can choose to take it in good faith or not. I will say that I stopped around season 15 or 16, and I have heard that the latest season or two are somewhat of a return to form. That might be true. I hope it is. I just lost interest.
>>
>>222937870
>they just refused to acknowledge this and joke about it,
They joke about it, especially with gollum dennis wiping off his makeup and going out with deflated pec pads and striking out with women.
>>
>>222937882
That's half assed and only concerns Dennis. It's also specifically not about aging. It supports my critique because Dennis who is objectively much less bogged gets humiliated by Dee in that episode, and by random women, clearly this reflects some new, pc, and very unfunny sensibilities on the writers end
>>
>>222937877
>Maybe one or two decent episodes per season
And those seasons only had 8 episodes, so its still a 25% hit rate which is still better than most modern sitcoms.
>>
>>222937903
Dee had a whole episode about hitting the wall and the joke being on Dee, though, they also dunked on mac for being too old to be getting in shape and how non one cared when he kept flexing his abs.
>>
>>222937882
what? they established that Dennis wears makeup in S3
>>
>>222937828
I don't know man, I quite enjoyed Charlie giving autistic responses to that Asian girl.
>>
>>222937903
>>222937919
so how fucked up is rickety cricket?
>>
>>222937919
I didn't see those episodes they have to be quite new. I stopped watching after the Ireland stuff or somewhere around that because it was getting painfully self-derivative and unfunny. The Mac stuff when he flexes is also not nearly courageous, it just pokes fun at his vanity while there is zero mention of him looking weird as fuck
>>
>>222937941
Unless you mean the jokes on Dee episode about female comics? That was before her boggening, so irrelevant. And it wasn't about her appearance anyway. Unless there is a specific scene you can point out where they mention she looks bogged, everything else you mention are just irrelevant excuses that make your motivation seem questionable
>>
>>222937910
I mean...sure, I guess. But that's not a very high bar lol, let's be real. I guess it still qualifies for "best modern sitcom" but that's like winning the special olympics. Also, when I say decent episodes I'm being pretty generous.
>>
>>222934646
not a sitcom, more of a dark comedy/satire
>>
>>222937928
Yea but Dee day established he is bald now, has no pecs, and without makeup looks like a ghoul.
>>222937941
Nope, The Gang Broke Dee is season 9 and The Gang Makes Paddy's Great Again is season 13, which is nearly 10 years old.
>>222937988
>That was before her boggening
No it was literally about her hitting the wall and how she let herself go enough that she didn't throw up on stage anymore from the pressure of trying not to be ugly and dirty.
>>
>>222938003
Sure, its not like its a comedy about a situation where some friends own a bar together.
>>
>>222937919
listen to yourself anon, listen to the banal stupid ass shit you’re talking about and defending
>>
>>222937874
you need to go back.
>>
>>222938047
Or you could actually listen to what I am saying, so you can realize it proves the other person is just straight up lying about the show not making fun of their aging.
>>
>>222938006
>No it was literally about her hitting the wall and how she let herself go enough that she didn't throw up on stage anymore from the pressure of trying not to be ugly and dirty
None of the things after the 'No' support the 'No'. The episode was before she got bogged and is thus irrelevant. My entire point is that s12+ she should be bullied for looking like an uncanny valley ugly Barbie doll, like she previously got bullied for looking like a bird. I exactly want the gang to be cruel again like they were in that episode, instead they are now making light banter that's afraid to directly address uncomfortable, harsh, but obvious truths. There's no point to a show like that
>>
>>222938058
None of the scenes you mentioned mention aging in any way
>>
>>222938106
They explicitly show the effects of the cast aging while trying to cover it up and then proceed to make fun of it instead of explicitly mentioning aging like some "My wife is sooooo old..." hack shit.
>>
It's just ok now but it's understandable, people lose their edge as they get older
>>
>>222938157
No they don't. Why don't they ever mention Dee has been looking grotesquely bogged for years now? You don't have an answer, don't bother replying. You're obviously disagreeing in bad faith
>>
>>222934646
It died after season 11
>>
>>222936889
The only retard here is you
Faggot
>>
>>222938231
>Why don't they ever mention Dee has been looking grotesquely bogged for years now?
They did that is what the while joke's on dee episode was about, I already answered to that, but you ignored it because you are the bad faith actor..
>>
>>222938303
Sure, you are a genius for wasting all your time talking in the vaguest terms possible about things you claim not to like.
>>
>>222938304
She was not bogged at that point you brainless animals, do you not know what that means you redditoid freak?
>>
>>222938557
She was and you clearly don't know what bogged means if you can't see it.
>>
>>222938579
You clearly live in some alternate troon reality where you get to make up arbitrary facts to shield things you like from criticism
>>
>>222938662
She is bogged by the middle picture in your image and the gang broke dee is the same season where they made fun of her being so old and bogged they have to blast light at her face to make her look acceptable.
>>
>>222938699
1. No she isnt, certainly not compared to the 3 bottom right images in which she is in uncanny valley territory
2. Cite one singular line that refers to her being bogged and not just ugly or birdlike
>>
>>222936889
Retard
>>
>>222938856
1. Yes she is.
2. I already have, they specifically mentioned blasting her with light to hide her wrinkles because they were trying to beat a younger group in the awards contest.
>>
I wonder how Kaitlin feels about getting mogged by Artemis in 2026. Ozempic was kind to her.
>>
>>222934721
>Eastbound and down
McBride is an asshole, but suger tits and his sidekick aren't.
>Vice Principles
Goggins is kind of an irredeemable scumbag, but McBride definitely isn't.
>>
>>222938941
both her and the waitress look great
>>
THE BIRD IS BOGGED
>>
>>222938965
The snail is looking quite salted, though.
>>
>>222938912
1. No she isnt
2. They don't mention wrinkles in that scene or episode, they propose to "blast her with light" to obfuscate her general ugliness
3. Even if it were true that they mention wrinkles, that's showing the opposite of what you're claiming, a reference to aging and not getting bogged (again look up what the word means)
>>
>>222938941
>>222938965
Dee mogs both even when bogged. Mac fucking won.
>>
There's no hope with dope and there's no mog with bog.
>>
>>222939133
1. Yes she is.
2. Yes they do.
3. It is true, the fact they are trying and failing to cover it up (and also the episode where they explicitly injected mexican pharma into their faces) is what being bogged is.
>>
>>222939369
Again that's an episode about her trying and failing to use cosmetic enhancements, it's entire premise is based on the actress not already having taken those measures - so again, exactly the opposite of them acknowledging the actresses bogged status. Once again what you propose as evidence for your conclusion actually supports the case against it. Also you've made it clear you have no interest in what the words you use actually mean so it's literally impossible to reason with you.

lol lmao even
>>
>>222937728
That does kinda describe the paradigm shift that happened around season 12. At that point the show was going long enough for them to be “embarrassed” by some of the older episodes bluer humor which was already uncouth at the time is I guess more uncouth today. It’s like if community 30 rock or the office were still going and they spent a few episodes a season lambasting themselves for jokes about race or sex that were lambasted within the episodes themselves already and justified with the humor created then

Dennis is perfect. Danny DeVito is great. Charlie is sometimes funny, sometimes annoying. Mac is gay. The bird is a bird.
It's one of the best.
But I nominate Silicon Valley. It's far more underrated.
>>
>>222940002
i've been exclusively watching 90's and 00's TV lately (or earlier, i do sometimes watch Three's Company) lately and it's been great. even some random g-rated TLC show will have someone hurl a no-no insult now and then. watching junkyard wars and the hosts make some juvenile joke or reference, juxtaposed against a contestant calling a competitor a retard. i miss it.
