Vince Vaughn is just a great addition to the show.

I totally just had a real life Larry David moment. At Jersey Mike’s getting sandwiches for supper. Placed the orders kids are making the subs. He slices Mrs Wease’s sandwich first and packs hers up, then he sliced mine. Without cleaning off the knife. The mayonnaise from hers got all over my sandwich so I had to explain to the young man that he needs to wipe off his knife in between slicing sandwiches because some people, like myself, do not care for mayonnaise and don’t want it on my sandwich, incidentally or otherwise. I think he learned his lesson.

I laughed hard when he took the pomegranate juice and yelled about possession being 9/10 of the fucking law on his way out the door.

Ha ha! Leon talking to that lawyer. Classic Leon episode!!!

OMG!!! The Ken/Kendra past hookup is hilarious. Even Springsteen was great in the scene.

Sick floor-fucker

Definitely the best episode of the season.

Jeff being thrilled that Suzy was quarantined had me smiling like an idiot. Her exchanges with Larry had me laughing so hard. “Drop dead” needs to make a comeback. What an insult.

POTY? February 1st - 3 days before the season started.

I loved the finale too. My one minor nitpick was Funkhauswr wasn’t in a flashback.

Watched an episode today. It was the Christmas episode where Joe couldn’t let a rewind fee of a video rental go. Some people say this show is dated. Wtf?

Lol the plane scene

And Leons face when Richards gf arrived
Sometimes I wanna drive around and find you
And act like it's a random thing
