    And Im already on the second season! Admittedly the first only has 7 episodes so it wasnt too hard ;)

    From what Ive read about it if I like it now I'll love it by season 3. Ive seen it been described as "Seinfeld on Crack" but I dont know what kind of a yardstick that is as I never got around to Seinfeld.

    All I know is, so far, its pretty damn good.

    The only complaint I can pick so far is, actress wise, there's no decent eye candy so far.

    Are there many fans of it on here?

    One of the best comedies out there at the moment, totally bat**** crazy. Love the episode where they think Charlie was molested by a teacher as a child. Some I'd the topics they deal with are kinda dodgy sometimes, but they deal with it in such a great way!

    Funniest show on TV. Each member of the cast is hilarious.

    As for eye candy, Dee is kinda hot, for an ostrich.

    Favourite clips...

    Ok, season 2. Here we go.

    Is it just me or does Danny Devito add nothing to this show?

    Not really what the show is about. I think part of the point of the show is that the characters are the dregs of society - they're lunatics running a sh*tty pub in a dodgy part of Philadelphia. I don't think it would make as much sense if they were really attractive.

    I have to say, I love Kaitlin Olson in it. I think she's a great comedy actress and well able to hold her own against the lads in the show.

    Last episode, 1st season. Charlie was molested, the best episode of all.

    Such a good show. This thread has got me thinking that I need to watch it over again!

    You definitely won't be saying Danny Devito adds nothing when you watch another season or 2 :D

    It's a real laugh-out-loud show. Charlie's probably my fave out of the gang. It's so funny that he and the waitress are married IRL.

    in season 2 yes. But he finds his place after that. Awesome show! Even the most recent season was gold

    Mac and Dee are married in real life too!

    I think Charlie is also my favourite. I feel like he's the least awful out of them all. I love his dream book (or his "dram bok" :pac:).

    That was probably my favorite joke of the whole show.

    Next season won't be out until early next year, plenty of time to watch the 9 seasons and be ready for it.

    The Gang Buys A Boat and Sweet Dee's Dating a Retarded Person are probably two of my favourite episodes.
