Fibber McGee & Molly's announcer, Harlow Wilcox, would also (quite surreally) stop into their home, and annoy everybody by talking up Johnson's Floor Wax, until they got him to leave.

Adomian has gone to "suddenly acting out anal rape" at least 3 times: here, the 2012 Halloween episode, and the Alan Rickman episode.

When I see Besser's on the show, I know it's going to be a chore to listen to. He's the only guest I actively dread.

Yeah, it still feels like CBB as a half-hour show isn't nearly enough for one character to establish him/herself, much less two or three.

Would Wompler work on screen? I mean, it's not like PFT resembled his characters, but an adult playing a 15-year-old is trickier.

Loved Season 1, but here's hoping doubling the number of episodes means the shows can loosen up— slightly less bits, more aimless improv and banter.

The classic-movie pastiches in Amazon Women were all pretty great (the care they took in the "Invisible Man" parody is incredible— they got the look of the film stock precisely right; too, the title sketches), very droll.

His drink of choice is Canadian Club, which is Canadian, not rye.

I personally thought Apatow's timing was way off (it was groanable how broadly and obviously he was playing the Early Decision on WYR) but Wompler can save anything.

So many great episodes, many that just missed the cut (and my list is light on Tompkins, which is absurd)

0. 167 - New No-Nos - Jessica St. Clair, Paul Rust, Jerrod Carmichael
