This is a rare show where the children on the show aren't throw-away "kids say the darnedest things!" gags, only existing for one-liners. It's so hard to find a TV series where the kids actually act like KIDS. And this is it.

All the more reason, then. Gives the "also-ran" portrayers more time to practice their impressions. I'm most excited to see Pharaoh's Carson again, and Moynihan's Cruz.

Truly a shame, considering many of their most genuine attempts at humor are cringe-worthy.

And performed by them, too, I'd wager.

So now that we know there is a passable Trump (Killam), a solid Carson (Pharaoh), a mousily-perfect Cruz (Moynihan), I'm sure they can wrangle together a Republican debate cold open. McKinnon might not make a well-mimicked Fiorina but she can sure do the crazy eyes, they just need a Rubio, and they could throw in a

I might be alone here, but I absolutely love Student Theater Showcase every time they do it. I'm still fresh out of college enough to know people exactly like that, who think they're so edgy. If it weren't an SNL sketch, it would be an entirely-believable, cringe-inducing performance at any predominantly-white high

The closing split screen credits were the best part. I was absolutely enthralled by how well they choreographed it.

Los Angeles is one of the show's most important supporting characters: a place where people are likely so used to shitty reality shows being filmed that they're plenty willing to have their or their child's 45 seconds of screentime regardless of how.

That was what I was thinking. I could have broke all that stuff at my local thrift shop for no more than $25. $280 is ridiculous!

Both progressive and backwards at the same exact time.

Despite Sasha actually being a boy, adult female Sasha was the most convincing of the photoshopped images.

This whole episode reminds me of a joke from Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. "I have a new exercise routine where I carry furniture up and down stairs. My trainer is an Israeli who owns a truck: Wait. It's a moving company."

Sometimes I wish I lived in the magical land known as LA where these harebrained schemes unfold on the television news. Dumb Starbucks made it to us, but I wish I had heard of The Movement!

It was the top hat.

"I've never heard that: brews and bros." (And somehow she put it better than Nathan.)

Which he tells them, to their face. That's what seals the deal.

I didn't even consider the fact that the TV wouldn't fit through the small door. He really had all his bases covered.

Essentially every episode works that way. The premise is interesting, but instead of trying to make them work perfectly and stick it to Best Buy, he just rolls with the punches and you get an even better show out of it.
