I wish they'd stop getting kicked in the dick over and over though.

I just lost it at Jared saying "hey Dinesh nice chain, do you choke your mother with it while you stick your penis in her butthole

I keep laughing out loud every time I think about that part. So fricking funny.

Which is why they need a season of just successes.

well to be fair, it would be a lot harder to write this show if they did succeed

the conflict makes them do wacky stuff that we haven't really seen before (or often)

think about the iconic scenes...the jerk calculations...the SWOT of letting blaine die...bringing piss to a shite fight

all from conflict, both big and small

i mean we got a small dose of success comedy. it's funny when dinesh buys a chain. you can't make a show just off of making fun of stupid shite they buy or richard trying to date a girl. erlich could work but would get old, fast.

It's a comedy, predictability isn't much of a concern. If you watch enough tv drama, it is rare for a show to be truly unpredictable though they all strive to be. Their company and software platform progress slowly accompanied by constant setbacks. Thats what the show is about, I don't see the problem. It's been great so far.

Haven't watched this episode yet, but the plot of this season would have been great if Gavin was fired from Hooli and then picked as the new CEO of Pied Piper. And Gavin would do an impecible job, but our protagonists (save Erlich who'd be sucking his left nut) would try to sabotage him. I think that would make for a better plot.

I was excited about where this season may go until Richard tripped and spilled the folder.

Richard is like the Starks on GoT. One step forward, two steps back.

Writers have them fail so quickly now. The guys were on a positive run for a grand total of 6 minutes and then "oh no I fell over!"

I just don't get the hate for the story line of then constantly failing. I watch it for the lulz, not the story

So goddamn predictable. Funny episode, but as soon as they started the plan I said to my wife, "as soon as they walk into the office they will be discovered "

This show has become too predictable in making them fail at every turn.


this

I loved this episode right up until Richard tripped then I kinda did an eye roll

at least let them do some funny pseudo spy shite or something for an episode

its still my favorite comedy show on TV at the moment, but goddamn the formula is getting annoying

Jared was hilarious this episode

Same.

Bell Biv Dinesh.
That chain is poison.

What was the joke when Dinesh, the Pakistani Mr. T, said "I'm not half black"? I can't remember.
