Mac And Charlie Just Can’t Quit Each Other
Just a couple of kids caught between wine-warring families.
Charlie’s Not As Dumb As He Seems
Just pitch perfect Charlie Day delivery.
Mac Wore Two Colognes
The jumping off point for the “Say something nice to me” exchange, which became the jumping off point for multiple double jackknife twist/Chrissy Orlando stories. I can’t remember the last time I “blew everybody’s tits off” and it bums me out.
What’s the count for impromptu Dennis speeches this season? 3? 4? I think this is the first one where he worked in licking butt but I could be wrong.
Four Methods Of Attack
Probably my favorite part of this episode is how quickly the fellas formed their various methods of attack.
Mac – “I’m going to smash this over their goddammed heads.”
Dennis – “And I’m going to blast them with this fire extinguisher.”
Charlie – “I’ll toss hot soup in their faces.”
Frank – “I’ll pinch their dicks with this lobster.”
A Waiter Eats It And Everyone Loves Each Other
The perfect resolution. Even for Sweet Dee…
It’s rare we experience a relative happy ending like this on Sunny and I want to embrace it. Thank you shoelaces! Salud!
See you guys next week for the final time in 2012. We’ll try and do something special for the finale so dress appropriately.

“I’ll pinch their dicks with this lobster” is my new favorite quote.
This was the first episode i watched all season. Thought it was hilarious
Oops, pow, SURPRISE!
loved this episode…….. say something nice to me is classic.. but i do prefer dennis to be more of a sociopath………
Fat Mac me
this may be the funniest season yet.
I was dying Thursday night. Maybe the purple kush had something to do with it, but my god Sunny was bringing the lolz.
It’s definitely up there. Season 1 will likely remain my favorite because of the initial shock value, but this season is quite stellar. Glad to see after this many years they’re still on top of their game.
I can’t believe next week is already the finale. This show has been fucking amazing this season.
I never want it to end.
Charlie and Mac staring at each other across the restaurant had me rolling. The looks were just perfect.
best part ever……….
hilarious
I may have missed this in the comments but wasn’t the waiter the same guy that gave Mac and Charlie their mail room jobs?
That’s likely. That actor plays a lot of bit roles on shows.
everything that they did with the “troop” was amazing
i bet he was crazy into jean shorts, too. i think all troops are
This episode had quite a few good moments but overall towards the end kinda went into a nosedive imo, I guess I expected more at the end then what we got.
Also Charlie & Mac staring at one another I also demand a gif so I can watch it forever of them watching each other from a distance
Mac’s face was perfect for that. His eyes slant downward, so he doesn’t have much peripherals.
Agreed, the staring had me rolling on the floor. Let the Reynolds family hash it out, white trash boys forever!
This is a thing we need. That gif is going to be INTENSE
This definitly was the callback season. I expect Charlie to break his leg for the season finale.
VIET-GOD DAMN-NAM HAPPENED! NOW GO GET ME A BEER BITCH!
maybe my least favorite of the season for some reason, but that’s not to say it was bad. it’s been a phenomenal season, this episode was just merely good.
I know what you mean. I didn’t think it was as good as some of the others, but some of the moments it had were really great.
This one is tied with Charlie and Dee Find Love for best of the season for me.
Agree.
Another strong episode, and I’m glad they finally put the series on Netflix Instant.
After I watched last nights episode I hopped on there and watched the first 5 from season 1. Just the difference in production quality is insane enough.
I loved Mac not realizing Dennis’s hero speech was about him. Dumb Mac is great.
I thought Mac was going to tear up, up until the point it became apparent that he had no idea the speech was about him.
“I did not get that at all.”
So good.
very classy indeed.. loved it
I too, hate sitting on a wobbly chair when I pay good money for a meal. I actually think Dennis, for once, wasn’t enough of a dick about it.
Also, I loved how Dennis tips the exact same was as Frank, by feeling a cup. And then Mac rubs the waiters butt, perfect.
What’s worse: a wobbly chair or a wobbly table?
Depends on what you’re eating. If you’re eating pasta a wobbly table isn’t that bad, but if you’re eating steak or anything that needs some knife work, you’re right, it’s pretty terrible too.
I have to vote table. Drives me crazy, especially when it’s the result of the actual floor being uneven. Obviously, I eat in nice restaurants…
I haven’t watched it yet, I just want the badge.
me too
Sambuca was a pretty classy move.
“If you don’t have a shot, and look around, you can see the two people without one…”
and they hate the troops!
The waiter was the most under-rated part of the episode. Add him to the long list of actors who have done a great job playing the random person caught in the gang’s crossfire of nonsense (ie the lawyer, the restaurant group executive).
Yes! I’ve seen that actor on other shows and he always holds his own even in bit roles.
I really though Frank and Charlie had lived together longer than a year.
*thought
Did they say which year anniversary it was? If so nice catch.
It wasn’t the 1 year anniversary. They didn’t say how many years it had been.
I called the waiter getting pasta sauce on himself as soon as the reference was made, and, while predictable, I wasn’t disappointed in the least due to how the episode ultimately wrapped up.
Gotta agree that this is probably my favorite episode of the season. Mac was doing his best impression of The Harvard Sailing Team’s “Boys Will Be Girls”.
I agree that the only thing missing was some cheese, but Mac’s cologne (or rather, colognes) was my personal favourite of the night.
When the black guy sat down at Dee’s table, I said “Hey! Its the guy from What’s Happening Now!” Afterwards, I felt a mix of embarassment and pride for knowing that.
Nice pull. I think. Kind of happy I did not know that.
If you’re right, what makes that especially cool is that the main female character in What’s Happening was “Dee”.
was that re-run??
I hope you don’t mean Fred “Rerun” Berry. That guy has been dead for a very long time.
I think this was the best episode of the entire season..
The most expensive bottle of wine in the place was a white that was bottled in clear glass? It looked like a bottle of 2 buck chuck to me.
I took it as it wasn’t actually the most expensive but Frank paid the dude to say that. Could be mistaken though.
White wine? Clear glass? How gauche. I’m sorry the props department didn’t consult with your sommelier beforehand.
Bummed that its season finale time next week
it already is? Only 10 episodes? Lame. Don’t they used to have 13 episodes ?
I think they have a shortened season. Someone mentioned over on the League discussion because that’s why that show has been doubling up on episodes the past 2 weeks.
this episode had me when dee mentioned she had a groupon. and the fact that she got back at the waiter pretty much made this episode!
Mac could have had himself a hot transsexual, but couldn’t accept the dick. She could have been his gateway penis.
I refuse to believe Mac’s attack would not all be karate related. The vase was just a ploy to get them to drop their guard before he unleashes a killer roundhouse kick.
The “licked her asshole” line had me in hysterics.
“It wasn’t great… but it was good.”
It went from amazing to just okay. Love pandering Dennis
“The point is, it was fine.”
The lobster claw dick pinch scenario had me dying. I just wish they’d drop the whole frank toupee thing and just embrace Danny Devito’s chaotic hair.
I like Frank and Charlie as a tandem attack. Soup to the face! Claw to the dick!
“I’ll pinch their dicks with this lobster” was easily the line of the night. Frank Reynolds can do no wrong.
I was hoping to see more of Frank eating. After last week’s episode, I can’t get enough. I still laugh when I think about him going to town on that box of peaches.
That was both absolutely revolting and hilarious.
Mac and Charlie catching each others gaze and staring absolutely killed me, I was laughing for the next 5 minutes and had to backtrack to see what I missed
Their facial expressions were golden
GIF request – MADE
I think that was my favorite part of the episode. Just the looks on their faces alone..
This was fantastic!
Add me to this list. Highlight of the episode.
Oh, and someone posted a couple in the AV Club comments, but neither is quite long enough for my taste: [imgur.com] [imgur.com]
I scoured the web for some and the only ones I could find were grainy ones like JJ just linked to and they did not do the gazing justice.
Paging Chet Manley.
Mas’s polo shirts and ties were his go to formal look before the Tommy Bahama shirts were on he scene.
Not gonna lie: I prefer the Tommy Bahama shirts.
As far as how they pay, I just assume Frank bankrolls everything.
I mean that’s gotta be it, right? Charlie’s level of destitution is the only one that seems legit though.
Yeah, in the episode where Frank lost his money in the Ponzi scheme it was revealed that he pays Dee’s rent.
The last few times they’ve showed Paddy’s Pub though (at least when it’s open) there’s been a bunch of customers in there.
I’m pretty sure he pays Dennis’s too and Mac lives there because of their weird co-dependent relationship
Leapin_Lizards, I remember the episode with all the college students, but I’m surprised they haven’t had a Paddy’s as the latest hipster haunt episode (or did they and my memory is fucked?).
Obviously the main reason DeVito got involved in the early seasons was to raise awareness for the show, but from a storyline standpoint Frank saved Paddy’s financially. They were a little more concerned with the realism back then.
PRC: The “gin bar” episode was their hipster episode.
@ Maske: I read an interview a while ago where they talk about how Frank was only going to be a secondary character (like Rafi in the League), but DeVito and the crew had so much fun that they decided to make him a main character.
Obviously it worked out, and I can’t imagine what the show would be like without him. Probably would’ve been canceled after the 2nd or 3rd season.
I’m so glad he stuck around. Frank’s one of my favourite characters
