I think the first time we see the earring is when he meets Judy at outback.

I’m obsessed with HOW they all say “daddy”. It plays in my head all day long.

The layers of insanity that go into this show sometimes: Judy sago bf the most ridiculous stuff while Kelvin and his God Squad are doing they homo-repressed gyrations in the background, BJ with his stupid earring. I’ll be laughing often between the actual jokes, just taking it all in.
Same here. I imagine they do more than a few takes of scenes. I don’t know the level of improvisation that occurs, but there has to be a good amount. A lot of stuff just seems like reactionary comebacks that just goes above scripted material.
