A lot of the humor is meant to come from the interplay - the crudeness of Gemma and her date and how they impose on Kenan and Vanessa.

"“Does this ‘friend’ have a name? Breasts? A vagina?”"

Barring an abuse scenario (and it would probably need to be one he had seen with his own eyes), witnessing your mother trying to kill your father is going to be disillusioning.

He saw the woman approach her sleeping father with a death pillow. That's a good reason to turn on her.

The episode was exactly what it needed to be. The writing was shockingly (but appealingly) short-sighted, and the execution was unbelievably entertaining.

I'm about to age/embarrass myself, but where does this term "teas" come from (I see it all over the Internet, specifically in a music context)? I'm guessing it means "flavors/vibes" - but does anyone even drink tea anymore? What's it a reference to?

Ignore.

Completely confused by the review here.

To an extent, sure, but it still seemed more impressed with the disparity between her rapping and speaking personas, along with her "make gun sounds," "shake the booty," etc proclivities - which are more straight-ahead commentaries on Iggy Azalea than on the race issue.

You didn't miss anything - there was nothing specific about her Iggy Azalea impression. It was just playing off the obvious joke about Iggy: when speaking, she has a mild-mannered presence and a very clear Australian accent. When rapping, she's loud, in-your face and channels the accent commonly heard in Southern…

Leslie Jones is "sexy?"

Weird read on the Officer Newton monologue. I didn't feel like the episode was giving him an unfair platform to make his case at all — I actually thought the monologue served to diminish whatever potential argument a more human character might have had.

Completely disagree with you on the oval office scene.

I actually did hear wet. But I'm not sure why would it be a stretch to assume "wet" = water tower, given that he already suspects the guy/Rebecca of being involved in the water tower murder, and … you know the whole connection between water, a liquid, and wet, "the state of being covered or saturated with water or…

— Enjoyed the episode, but the deal with Puma's song was somewhat surprising to me. I had been operating under the notion that Lucious was more of a pure, old school RAPPER who might have started to sell out and do poppier stuff as he got big. Seeing that he was working on a clear R&B ballad during his early days…

— While I'm glad the show gave some other actors a chance to shine this year, the giant version of Kiesza and the guy with the skinny limbs are not charismatic or talented enough to function in the workhorse roles. Scenes just die whenever they're involved (and they're in way too many scenes)

The "except a bullet" scene almost completely derailed this project. I get that it's important to have a criminal element, but the execution of this one was terrible. The cheesy line, the horrible acting from his right hand man, the poor build to that moment and the horrible mob music that played after the shot all…

"Maybe You're Not the Worst Thing Ever" worked really well the way it was laid out, which is probably why they shoehorned Galavant and Isabella into the song (I actually think their voices gel better than those of the other two).

You know everyone praises Omundson's work on "Psych," but no one ever talks about his turn as Susan's brother on Seinfeld.

Definitely on iTunes - there was a press release about it last week, plus the cast has been Tweeting the link - but I guess the songs aren't visible at all (which would hurt sales).
