shiva already cursed the season they wont rebound till next year
SHIVAKAMINI SOMAKANDARKRAM!!!!!!!
the league rules!!!
the kiss between Jenni and Shiva is very nice, but can’t we get a gif? Is that asking for too much?
The “gifs from thursday night television” post for that week contained that gif.
Alas, here in the television wasteland that is Canada, we don’t have regular access to ‘Always Sunny,’ so I can’t compare it to ‘The League.’ But yes, Thursday’s episode was weak. But that only whets my appetite for what is to come.
Wait, did you say there were bad episodes of Always Sunny?
“Funniest married couple on television”?
No pictures of Jenny in her robe? Really? You’re slacking, Dustin.
Also, it has been mentioned before that this season may look worse than it really is because its been fairly average so far while Sunny has been firing on all cylinders.
Kind of like having a clean up hitter batting .330 with 35 HR and a #5 hitter batting .280 with 23 HR. That #5 hitter is actually pretty good, he just gets over shadowed by a far superior hitter.
yeah but last year that #5 hitter out hit the clean up hitter
More Jenny in her panties would make the show more enjoyable to watch.
A return of Brie Larson would be even better.
Bring Back Dog Ruxin!
i try to work in “forever unclean” into my daily vocabulary.
as do I
Copy that
Definitely.
The League has always been firmly in a tier below Sunny, Archer, and other tier-1 comedies. I feel like it’s usually a couple of solid one-liners/scenes and a bunch of shoehorned football references and bad-awkward acting.
Last night when Pete was getting his chin stitched is a great example. “Now, let me just check some injury reports here…”
Agreement. That particular line was totally inorganic. I feel like we’re past the fantasy football schtick, and when no other character in the episode mentions their team, Pete should not either.
Miss you Season 2.
That picture of Shiva in incredible.She should be more famous
That picture of Shiva in incredible.She should be more [naked].
***fixed***
You have to watch True Blood for that. She is fully nude for nearly the entire last season.
missed last night’s episode, bluh. gonna have to track it down because i need to complete things.
I have to agree that last night’s episode was pretty bad.
Come on! The funniest married couple on TV?
BRAD AND JANE!
This. And it’s not even close.
Truth. Runners-up April and Andy.
JJ, good call with April and Andy after this most recent “Hitler” episode.
1000% on board with Brane/Jad. And April and Andy because BURT MACKLIN AND JANET SNAKEHOLE.
Paint knife?
Classic Rafi.
People think The League is having a down year? We had tit whisky a few weeks ago! TIT WHISKY!
CHALUPA BATMAN McASTERISK!!!!
Also, I thought last night’s racist piano was a clever setup for the JB Smoove joke at the end.
JB Smoove was great. But how do all these people know this racist song? Answer: Closeted racists!
I would have been like the little girl, singing the song without a clue.
Where is Mr. McGibblets when you need him?!
Tit whisky was definitely an episode high. Honestly, I preferred this weeks’s episode to the offerings of the past 2 weeks.
SHIVAKAMINI SOMAKANDARKRAM!!!!!!!
I would blast Shiva.
Vapora splooge. Towel off and repeat.
Shiva is hot. And yeah, I kinda enjoy Rafi. He’s repellent, but I can’t look away.
I can’t wait for Dirty Randy to come back.
Sorry, tall guy!
As much as I love this show, the promos stink on ice. Between that and the fact that too many people think you need to know football to watch, I feel like it’s killing their ratings.
I try to get people to watch it but they won’t because they don’t care about football.
I started watching the show because of Nick Kroll and Paul Scheer who I just enjoy immensely. I’m a girl and loathe sports but this is still one of my favorite comedies because the cast plays off of each other so well and it was never so much about the fantasy football as it was about the shitty thing they do to each other and get into BECAUSE of the league.
I’m on board with this plan. We can’t afford to lose Rafi
GATTACA!!!
I feel like if he had actually seen that movie, he wouldn’t be saying that.
All three of the main women on this show are just so damn hot it amazes me.
Yes.
They sure are, friend.
As long as there is a possibility that Rafi will appear, i will watch this show.
el cuñado?!
Any utterance by Rafi of “fill in the blank boner” fills me with glee.
And Boners.
WHERE IS RAFI, DAMMIT!?!
So, there’s a couple “weak” episodes of the League and we have to be reminded not to jump ship? This is why we can’t have nice things anymore.
Between the wrong opinions for this and Sons Of Anarchy I’m starting to realize this place is full of idiots. Last night’s League was just as solid as any of the other ones.
Seriously, saying “i couldn’t find 5 great lines” ridiculous.
RV episode was bad. Real bad.
The breasts-to-titties explanation had at least five on its own
nah, the RV episode was good. sorry.
and yeah, JB also alone had at least 5 great lines
I liked the RV episode too, a little more than this weeks actually. Although I could have watched an hour of Taco and his sex-sniffing dog.
I guess I’m crazy for thinking it was funny. Sure it was obvious, but it was “Larry David”-like.
I think part of that was JB Smoove. I think he was winging it a lot much like how Curb is done.
The way to make a great League episode is to have Rafi shoot Pete in the head at the end of every episode
Also never have JB Smoove on again he is terrible
I have never heard anyone say JB Smoove is terrible before. It’s impossible to sincerely think that.
Disagree with the JB Smoove hate, but I am all in favor of repeated Pete killings.
JB Smoove is the man, Pete is not
I like Pete. he’s not the funniest member of the cast, but he fills kind of the snarky Jim role well. plus, Mark Duplass is awesome in general.
This season has been really up and down. But what frustrates me the most is the lack of the fantasy football. I realize they want to appeal to a broad(er) audience, but the fantasy aspect was what got me into this show in the first place. We know Ruxin has Arian Foster, Jenny has Frank Gore, and Pete had Ogletree for week one. That’s it.
the problem is that the fantasy football scenes are strained and dated by the time they air.
“I”m winning the league because Michael Vick scored 4 TDs for me!” Yah, nope.
I love any and all Rafi/Taco interactions, because all of a sudden Taco becomes this weird straight man.
I think Rafi conversations are perfect to have with the whole group. I love Ruxin’s reactions to him and the fact that he never gets Pete and Kevin’s names right.
“How’s Brian?”
“You mean Kevin?”
“Still married to that Asian chick??”
“We’re going to need new names. From now on, Brian, we’ll call you ‘Kevin.’”
this was a nice comeback episode after two pretty mediocre ones.
Leg titties.
Last night was definitely the weakest of the season so far but the season has had a great run so it’s tolerable
RV episode was the worst thus far, by far.
Yeah, the RV episode was surprisingly weak. Not even Ken Marino added much.
Fee, Fie, foe, fum
the End are Near at
thou Bobbum time me
open Bobbum Van trunk
for ruin Bobbum wif
Equipmunk!
Things like that are enough to keep me coming back for the foreseeable future.
I disagree about the characters being terrible – it’s true for Curb and Sunny but not really for the League. Rafi’s obviously a psycho and Ruxin’s a dick, but Pete, Kevin, Jenny and Andre are all decent people, if weird in their own ways, none of them have a complete lack of morals the way Larry David and the Sunny crew do.
But, I do agree that the show doesn’t rely on the audience being invested in what happens to the characters the way they do on the shows you mention. In fact, as has been mentioned the League episodes actually follow the Curb model by ending the show with a last-minute tie-in of different story lines from the episode.
Pete is pretty much at the same level of dickishness as Ruxin, if you ask me. And Andre is just a little too much of a moron and punching bag to be likable, although I generally love Paul Scheer.
I agree, I dont even think ruxin is that BAD. This is supposed to be (and most of the time is) a show about regular flawed people and the awfulness this fantasy football league brings out in them, its strayed from that premise (and remained hilarious) but the characters are still the same ones
Shiva got naked a lot on this season’s True Blood. A LOT.
And it was glorious!
I think I’ll start watching True Blood now….or just use the internet
Christ i watch trublood and didnt even realize that was her. I’m a frittata
This post could have just been:
1-15: RAFI BOMB!
The underwater shot of him was one of the greatest shots I have ever seen.
NO, Jenny wood wind Joke gif? That was a funny part.
The show is pretty consistent for me. A few chuckles, a few decent laughs, and then one mind-blowingly awful situation that you can’t help but laugh at for five solid minutes.
Whose time is so precious that they would nix 22 minutes of quality television out of their life over a few less than hysterical episodes?
I like the way you think. We’re not cancer researchers, we can spare 22 minutes.
Hear that, cancer researchers? Knock off the lollygagging!
Don’t know about last night but last episode two weeks ago was real soft.
You know who should come back? Bree Larson. She should come back in every show, even the ones she never was on. And then she should come back to my place.
Brie Larson is lovely, indeed.
She’s never looked better than when she was in Scott Pilgrim. Kinda the opposite for Mary Elisabeth Winstead who has never looked worse.
She was good, but Taco’s roommate George was even better.
You should have lead with Shiva
