B-99 always hits these ‘event’ episodes out of the park.

“I LOVE you Daddddaptian. Daptain. It’s a normal way to say Captain. It’s from hip-hop.”

Yup. This was an all-around great episode: Rosa’s new development, cows smooshing, the Boyles. God, I love it.

By Hollywood standards, 28 years of marriage is a miracle.

Terry Crews early 90s hair game is fire

Wow, they’ve been married 28 years (... he got married at 22!). That just seems so remarkable to me.

I’m sorry, but any episode that required Andy Samburg and Terry Crewes to link arms and skip in unison singing is an episode that needs an automatic B.

I laughed so hard I had to rewind it and hear Jake’s set up again

“You look exactly like the female bounty hunter in every steampunk novel. You just need a pair of welding goggles.”

Yeah. It felt like it was straying into lazy “nerds are dumb” territory. And we already have Big Bang Theory for that shit.

The fandom/convention stuff was mostly pretty lazy but the diversity panel gag and the stuff about steampunk protagonists was so spot on it felt like one staffer in the writer’s room knew the field very well but only a couple of their joke pitches ended up in the episode.

Very recently a friend of mine self-published a fantasy novel. It was absolutely terrible. I ended up buying sixteen copies.

TABLE OF ROSAS + EYEROLL was the highpoint for me. i chortled. A++++

For me, an issue with this episode was the joke felt really outdated. I thought it worked in the first Parlov episode as there it was more about Terry liking this really bad book and idolizing the scummy writer, but here they dove more in to the ‘culture’ in a series of really lazy jokes. This isn’t to say there isn’t…

I miss that show so much :(

C-? This was one of the funniest episodes of the series!

You gave this a C-?

Automatic B+ for shouting out how great Carly Rae Jepsen is.

And in callbacks, we also had Braugher channelling his Homicide character Pemberton in the interrogation room.
