He's an ABSENTEE LANDLORD!!!!

Still waiting to hear exactly why you're outraged…

You're welcome!

I watched a bunch of episodes on Netflix and it was a well made cheesy sitcom. It had a ton of lame jokes but it also made me genuinely laugh a few times.
The youngest daughter was fantastic (as she was on Justified) and the middle daughter was really great too. And I loved the mom. It would be a crime if she doesn't

Way to shit on a thoughtful post with a gross generalization that does nothing but dumb down the conversation. Good stuff.

Commercial residuals run on a sliding scale so the more it runs the less you get paid each time it airs. And commercials that run into the multiple thousands of times are rare. Back in the 80s and 90s companies used to run commercials for years. Now they shoot one, show it for 3 months and then shoot a new one. So the

Maybe someday I'll look back on the Leslie Jones and Kyle Mooney sketches and understand why they're supposed to be funny. But today is not that day.

Nonsense.
1 - If you're lucky you can make $20K on a national commercial. You're not buying a house in Los Angeles just b/c you made $60K one year.
2 - Actors can book 3 commercials in a year and then not book anything for 3 years.
Dev should not be living as comfortably as he is.

Most of the acting in the show feels pretty hammy - they all sound like they're either setting up a joke or delivering a punchline - but I do think there's something interesting about his dad.

WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME????

CRAZIER THEORY TIME: all of that happened because the writing on the show is terrible.

Terrible show. The pilot was bad and this episode was even worse. There's a joke like every 4 or 5 lines but none of them are funny. I know a lot of people around here really love Adam Pally but he's pretty boring in this. You guys cut him a lot of slack for a show he did 5 years ago.

Agreed. He's just the suburban, American version of Russell Brand from Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
The idea of 'Deadheads living by that code and being so nice you can't hate them' is only from the movies. It's just a trope. It's not real life.

I love Donald Glover but Atlanta is incredibly uneven and overrated. Some really great moments and some really dumb moments.
Also, I didn't like Love.

No.
Case in point: McKinnon's 'Hallelujah' as Clinton and the "To Sir, With Love" song for Obama.
Two of the cringiest, tone deaf political sketches they've ever done.
Trump is terrible but glorifying the other side like that is fucking ridiculous.

Josh left her at the altar to become a priest. Ha.

"I’ve praised it for talking about issues that are rarely brought up in primetime: race, class, sexuality."
What decade is Molly watching television in? Race, class and sexuality is brought up in primetime shows ALL THE TIME now.

I fucking hate Trump but that "To Sir, With Love" song for Obama was really embarrassing. It only legitimizes Trump's attacks about the show being unfair. That and McKinnon's "Hallelujah" are two of the most tone deaf things I've ever seen the show do.

I was watching it. 95% of the sketch was very lame pee pee jokes. Please explain why this was a good cold open. Thanks.

There are very few things I can count on in my life but me feeling underwhelmed by an episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and then reading a hugely positive review about it here is definitely one of them.
