Wine & Pie

Jan 25, 2022

Noah's dad is in a funk, so he asks Fay to make his favorite pie; Sherm teaches Anthony to play chess; Wyatt introduces the crew to his brother.

Noah's Dad is hot.

This is only like my 3rd episode I think, so i had no idea that Noah and Nicky were brother and sister.

Pie and doughnuts and copies is quite a combo. Now I want to know why Kinkos never sold dessert.

You literally can't spell copies without pies.

That needs to be a marketing slogan for a Kinko's that serves pies.

When Noah's dad threw that pie upside his head, almost fell off the couch laughing.  I loved their pie fight.  And the dad is hot. 

So I guess Wyatt's brother will be a new regular on the show?  I've seen the actor in other roles and I hope he stays around.  He and Nicky aren't done with each other yet, LOL.   

I love the odd couple Sherm and Anthony.

Wasn't he though? Nice hair, too. He's the second hot dad I've seen on NBC lately. The actor who played Dr. Scott's dad on Chicago Med was beautiful, too.

My first thought was that Noah is going to have a hard time getting all that pie out of his hair.

I wonder why we haven't seen Wyatt's wife lately.

Why a hypothetical Kinko's when it can be the slogan for Noah's dad's shop (which is completely real)? Though the slogan form really should be "[Name of Shop]: We put the pie in copies."

Not surprised.  One of the weakest parts of this otherwise pretty good show is the relationship, or lack of chemistry, between the two of them.  There is much more of a brother/sister vibe between Nicky and Sherm.  It's also been interesting seeing the actors settling into their roles/characters.  On the first episode, I was very conscious that I was watching people act, with the exception of Noah, who already seemed to inhabit his role, but it's getting better.  

While it's not a laugh-a-minute type of show for me, I do get at least one out-loud giggle or laugh per episode.  The one that stands out for me the most from the season, was when Noah was seeing his ex everywhere, including as one of those inflatable tube man blow-ups.  I also like how bit-by-bit we learn more about each character, and also about their relation to each other.

I guess Nicole Byer is supposed to be some big deal, but I find her to be the weakest link as an actor/actress.

I totally get that.

I already adore Echo Kellum from his other projects - Sean Saves the World and Ben and Kate.

Yeah, she's not my favorite either, but she's gotten better with each episode. I do like that her character is the who talks most openly talks about sex.

I think about this moment every day at the end of my day.
