Oh come on, this was pretty fucking funny. There were a lot of solid jokes among the typical Stefon-isms. When he called Colin and Michael “Moonlight and LaLa Land” I was howling.

Nerd trivia: Christopher Reeve based his Clark Kent on Grant’s performance in Bringing Up Baby.
Also to note in the “I just went gay all of a sudden!” scene: there’s a cut IMMEDIATELY after the line, making it clear at least a few people completely cracked up.
YES! That episode was exactly what I thought of! They were sitting there in the restaurant, and neither of them used any actual words to communicate with each other—just wordless laughs and other sounds—and at some point I went “...oh, this is an homage to that TZ episode with Agnes Moorhead, isn’t it...”
i’m reminded of an episode of the twilight zone “invaders” starring agnes moorehead where she is in silent terror in her battle against what are beings from another planet whose sentience is belied by their toylike appearance. a precursor to the AI theme.

Yeah, as soon as I saw her skate onto the ice.... “we’re going to hear some metal. YAAASSS, that is a picture of Angus Young on her back!!!”
How has the Trump White House not hired this kid yet
Because Return Of Bruno fucking KICKS.
How come no Bruce Willis?
I legit teared up at the Sam Malone scene, that hit me in the childhood feels.

Darin Morgan is just such a damn champion. It’s wild. (Also, he is the only writer who would create a situation in which they go back and alter an episode he acted in, and have someone shoot him in the head. Bless.)
He’s also Regular Sized Rudy on Bob’s Burgers!
I wish we could have 1 Darin Morgan X-Files episode every year. Surely Gillian could agree to that? Not a full season, just that episode.
