Think it’s been a good season so far, looking forward to a new episode each week.

I used to really hope he and Cheryl would get back together. Now I’m to the point where she doesn’t even need to be on it anymore. And I don’t like her eye job.

Middling episode with a few decent bits of Larry being Larry; Watermelon has been the season’s high point so far.

Solid episode, lots of Larry being Larry (early bickering with Lewis, his campaign promises, the book club scene with Cheryl and Susie, the ex-wife widow, pins).
I spent the her first couple scenes trying to figure out who was under the wig before realizing it was Tracy Ullman.
Yeah, you tell Cheryl Hines has had some work done. I knew Richard Lewis had health issues last season but he still looks rough.

I liked the Irma character better after the last episode, Tracy Ullman was great and got a few laughs from me.
Larry showing up at the dinner party early and the following sequence is probably my favorite scene of the season so far.
Leon had another Kramer-esque scheme, the unraveling at the end got another laugh.
An uneven episode to be sure though.
That was number eight for the season. Bill Hader’s episode is next week. Assuming it’s the usual ten episode season surely the finale won’t run on Dec. 26, will it?
