Why isn't Glenn Howerton getting dramatic movie roles? He is ridiculously good on this show.

I've been unimpressed with him outside of Sunny.

Yeah, I can't think of much I've seen him in outside of Sunny. He's outstanding as Dennis Reynolds. OUTSTANDING. But he wasn't as interesting or convincing in Fargo. And those might be the only two things I've seen him in. And don't get me wrong, I don't think he's bad in Fargo. Just not as interesting.

Speaking of which, I saw the first episode of Dee's new show and it is fucking horrible. Her character is Dee Reynolds with a new name, and everyone else are unlikable one-note characters and shitty child actors.

Dennis with that weird upper Midwestern accent in Fargo was quite hilarious.

"Charlie Catches a Leprachaun" is the darkest episode yet. Good lord.

Overall, while I don't think season 11 was peak Sunny, at least in terms of being a consistently funny sitcom, it was probably their most artistically adventurous season so far. There were a few strikingly dramatic/touching moments here and there.
