I love that the actor playing Pete got to use his natural accent some although I thought the Pete talking to plants story continued too long. Overall, I liked this season. Liked the Pete/Doug relationship, although I was wondering if they were going to go "there" with them at first.  Michael Trucco just doesn't seem old enough to be fatherly to Pete, but I'm okay with it.

Interested to see how the next 12 episodes play out. Maybe Ruth has a secret SECRET safe somewhere.

I also liked the Pete & Doug relationship. They both seem really connected. Trucco could totally be Baldwin´s dad, since according to the internet he is 47 and the kid is just 20. And I may say I strongly wish I will look that good at 47, but I don't think I am in the right track at the moment.

I LOVE PETE. I have - well had (he disappeared off the face of the Earth after a very sad paranoid break) - a very close friend who was just like him and I miss him very much.  Didn't know he was actually Australian!

I'll watch Kathy Bates in anything, but I agree with Hybridcookie about the dumb laughter - I did read that it's a studio audience though, not a track.

I didn't like seeing the talented Richard Kind as a bad guy Fed. That sucked. I was hoping they would redeem him somehow, but no.

Like Carter a LOT.

Don't like generic sitcom girl who ate too many shitballs. She's boring af.

Dank and Dabby. I like them and laugh at them, though her off-putting "John Belushi by way of Jack Black" appearance threw me for a while. Them being "un-high" was a revelation, haha.

Doug was WAY outta line at the beginning, and I wanted to put a fist in his face. He got a little too worked up over the lemon verbena (always reminds me of Laura Ingalls and Miss Beadle) candle, if you ask me. I guess because nobody's ever nice to him.

Anyone know when more episodes come out?

I agree with everything you just wrote.

I would only add that I find Travis almost as boring as Olivia. But I think I already said that.

Oh, well.

Now we only have to wait until January...

I absolutely loved the war scene at the fridge. I need some of those soldiers to prevent me to eat more cake...

And strangely, this is where I actually stopped hating Dank and Dabby. I won't go as far as saying I love them, Because I don't. But they were funny here.

I still don't care about Travis, or Olivia, but the fantasy scene was funny, both parts. 

I wish they wouldn't have gone so fast with Carter's transformation, but the thing about the soccer game was on spot. 

I liked Tae Kwon Doug in this one too, and I think that actor that played Jake Bone did a good job portraying an asshole. 

And I absolutely loved the strain of the Day segment. It was hilarious. And on a personal note, I wish I would have wavy hair like Petes

The ending with Ruth and Pete was bittersweet. It was sad seeing Pete being hurt because of being ridiculed and betrayed, but it was a good ending with the talking plants and the soccer game modification. Weird, in a good way.

What I liked about this one was Carter and his PTSD,  Tae Kwan Doug, Pete and all his weirdness, and Jenny and that bizarre video clip. 

What I didn't love but was more like... ok... was the Dank and Dabby duo. Perhaps being in the same scene with Travis lighten them up. I don't know, but they weren't as annoying as they were in the previous episode. 

And I agree with xander that there are too many characters. But I wouldn't lose Tae Kwan Doug nor Nicole Sullivan. 

What I hated was the strain of the day, and I find Olivia and Travis boring as hell. 

And the final animation video was awesome. So many details. I was in awe that they actually got into the detail of drawing red cells, dendrites and synapsis. Seriously awesome.

And this scene was really moving.

What I liked:

The first segment, with Carter, Pete and Jenny. I just don't like Olivia and Travis characters. I couldn´t even point at what seems off, but I just don't like them much.

I loved seeing Michael Trucco in this one. He is pretty funny. And I loved the Lays ad. 

I was annoyed with Olivia & Travis, and also annoyed with Dank and Dabby, and I couldn't care less about the strain of the day. 

And I loved that awww line delivered by Pete (the one about no wrong holes). Cute kid, that one.

The animated segment was pretty sad. Lots of details in that one. Really well done. I think it was very thoughful.

And then I was back at being annoyed with Olivia & Travis, which then I decided I disliked even more than Dank and Dabby.

Strange, funny ending, though.

Well, I watched this episode after watching the trailer. I hated both. But I watched it anyway because we have guests for dinner, and we went along with the crowd. Actually I dislike this episode and most of the next one, but I liked the advertisments. Still, I ended up watching more episodes in the same night, and I liked them. So, maybe viewers that can actually stand this and the second episode will be more than happy to find out the show gets a lot better. Eventually.
