same thing with this week's episode about old swingers. old people having sex parties is so crazy it's funny!! and the old guy gets off on balloons popping, what!! no.
beefsquatch is the worst episode, though. gene-centric episodes are just the ****s. i actually am a fan of the show outside of these complaints, though.
But again, the zaniness is the underscore of the actual heart of the episode. The cab episode is about Bob being a good dad, and doing anything for his daughter including moonlighting as a cab driver, and shaving his mustache so he looks hideous. This episode was about two old timers about to be put out on their ass because the old man can't fit in, and Bob being a good son in law by helping him figure out how, which leads to him reconnecting with his wife after 20 years. (Yes, Bob had his selfish reasons of not wanting the parents to stay with them, but all in all, the episode shows what kind of a good guy Bob is at the core.)
