S06.E02: Going Gray

[joanne3482]

Fred wakes up with gray hair and sets out on a journey to figure out how old he is; the Mayor reminds Carrie about an arrangement they made.

Love the conversation Fred and Carrie have at the very beginning about when things happened and what they can remember. It's funny because it's true... for me. *sigh*

 

The scene with Carrie and her girlfriends was funny. 

 

It's always good to see Kumail. The astrophysicist was really funny too, in a deadpan, reactive way.

 

The cartoon gynecologist was funny in a terrible way. 

 

Dr: If you want to pop out a goonie or two out of this old pirate's cove…

 

Dr: I think there's a bat in here. Literally.
Carrie: Not literally.
Dr: Clitorally.

I loved the intro with Fred and Carrie not remembering when things happened. They sounded like detectives following clues in their own lives. I was expecting them to remember that they actually saw it in a movie.

 

I like the way they make scenes like the astrophysicist look improvised. It really looked like they found a real one and just had Fred unload crazy stuff on him. Lots of regular people are surprisingly funny.

 

I'm one month older than Fred. Yikes!

This was one of my favorite episodes ever. The gynecologist was hilarious in a " shouldn't laugh at this" kind of way. Fred's dismay over aging, the girlfriends.....it was just great.
