--I'm the only one who has a problem with Wendy getting down in the gutter with all that cloak and dagger stuff??? WTF triggered that???

--That guy who played Hard Bob is older than ME! If you're gonna throw porn stars at him, shouldn't Nina Hartley or Ginger Lynn be in the mix? I'm heartbroken that I'm not familiar with the girls they got. I've only *heard* of Lisa Ann (no, I'm not going to look up the spelling).

--Only sexual tension I'm picking up off of Taylor is with the black chick in her office.

--Axe's girlfriend has no problem with Axe manipulating everyone he's ever met....but the old pizza guy? NOW he's gone too far???

Not if they still want him to be Hard Bob.

And all it took to persuade the secretary — an adult film enthusiast, of course (see: Hard Bob) — was the help of a few real-life porn stars: Lisa Ann, Cory Chase (Audrey Joyce Leon), and Rayveness (Gina-Raye Carter), adding three more cameos to the list.
How are the last two cameos, if they are played by someone else? That's why when Hard Bob says "and are you...?" to the blonde, she interrupts him and says "yes I am" before he can say the name.

Those are their real names.

Yeah thats what I suspected but it just feels strange because they always seemed to try and paint Connerty as the idealist/boy scout. Not sure where he can go after getting canned again.

Taylor is going to turn into them (mad queen and king )
Her and the cringy black chick together = cringey to the 3rd power.

But that still wouldnt top Spyros, he is the official Cringemeister.

Damn Connerty is sad. He needs a comeback.

The look on Jocks face when that smell came through the window deserves the cover of "Who Farted?"

That dollar bill song as he and Bonnie went at it in the back seat was good.

Dollar bill song was great!

I feel like they've taken Spyros to such a next level of cringe that I actually find him amusing now. Chucks line 'like a country doctor with an outbreak in the shire - I'm going to get back to work' was so bad it was spyros level.

Another great ep overall, building toward a big finish. I wish they'd let us see Wendy naked already though.

ya but he didnt even care about that until he found out the General was against it. the deal would have fixed Wendy and his Dad.

How many more episodes are there?

Not taking the deal makes little sense — yet.

It doesnt make sense to us because it seems like a pretty good deal from our point of view but Chuck said he is not looking to play the pass line, he is looking for the BIG score.
Revenge on Captain Hadley is the big score.

Plus I figure he was not guaranteed a return to normal by Wendy if he helped her and he may still have an angle to help her later

And his pops will survive for now

And pops and Wend were tag teaming him earlier so he might be feeling like
"these jokers can wait", not even counting that Grampy Pancakes gave his grandson a slinky as a birthday gift.

I really enjoyed the "Meet Lecter" camera move.

Stopped enjoying it when the dialog went to Lecter.

It's such an awful decision to turn Taylor sex crazed
Billions Quote

I don't think they've made Taylor sex crazed. I'm sure Taylor has sexual urges like anyone else, so naturally there's going to be situations where it arises. There's only been two instances in the show where we've seen Taylor do anything sexual.

I didnt word that right. regardless, she has been a largely asexual character and there were no indications she liked women. she even hooked up with a dude but it made sense given their quirky personalities. now all of a sudden this.

Don't confuse gender with sexuality. Think of gender not as binary, but as a spectrum....and remember that almost everyone on that spectrum gets horny.

The co-worker girl has also been shown to be pretty quirky; it works.

I think you should let this go.
