I saw it at Paleyfest and it is horrendous. Think Dads, but without the biting wit.

I honestly thought that episode fell really flat even though there was some inspired writing. It felt like a really bad knock-off of a Frasier episode. Now that show knew how to do farce.

Having seen the trailer, I think it being a terrible show is going to sink it.

I give you the weird, but I find him so painfully unfunny, I literally can't watch because I get so much secondhand embarrassment.

Ugh, Kyle Mooney needs to go. I cringe through all his shorts.

I heard Mulaney really sucks though. Which makes me sad, but not surprised - the trailer was really disappointing.

They didn't do one. Which explains a lot.

I thought the whole episode was pretty flat up until the last scene with Moira, Oliver and Thea. Just intense and brutal and totally unexpected. Probably the best scene the show's ever done. The acting from all three was A+ all around, from Stephen Amell who just gets better and better every week, to Susannah Thompson

I mean………..I guess if I reaaaaaaaaaaaally squint, I can kind of see how Cersei saying, 'It's not right' is her more saying no to the time and place than the act? And handwave the rest as another one of Jaime and Cersei's fucked up, grabby, violent power plays?

The director said this about the rape scene:

One thing I really liked about this episode was Slade's hallucination of Shado. Up til now, I was with the rest of you that his motivation for his crusade against Ollie was pretty piss weak. And it's still kind of weak, but I like that they're emphasizing the idea that it's not necessarily his grief from Shado's death

This episode really reminded me of Frasier with all its farce, but I don't think it pulled it off nearly as well. There were some really off moments with the timing that didn't make it as funny as it could have been.

Andy Samberg is really impressing me as a dramatic actor. The scene at the end with Amy was really well played and it's not something I ever thought he could pull off even ten episodes into the show.

"She makes me feel things, okay?"
"SHE MAKES ALL OF US FEEL THINGS."

"I have to say…I feel like you deserve this."

I've been surprised by how solid of a dramatic actor Andy Samberg is too. There were some really nice moments in this episode (and the last one) where we get to see more of Jake's vulnerability and he pulls it off really well without it seeming too put upon and 'actor-y', which is what some comedic actors tend to do.

"I don't have time to teach you Danish, Amy!"

Amy Santiago shame eating her fourth burger was the cutest thing I've ever seen.

Nice of ARGUS to let her keep her weekly manicure apointment.

Also, she's fictional…
