formerlyfreedom August 4, 2016 Share August 4, 2016 Lillian plans to marry an extremely old and wealthy man named Laverne; Hortense flirts with Laverne's handsome grandson Bertram; incriminating photos threaten Frederick's position as vice president. Link to comment
Amethyst August 11, 2016 Share August 11, 2016 Dodo! So happy to see that crazy woman again. Although I was kind of confused when she said she had good news for Beatrice. I thought she was going to say that Beatrice and Frederick weren't actually blood siblings. Was the good news about the whole baptism stuff? Speaking of which, hi, Jemaine Clement! Almost didn't recognize him. Saw Lillian's hubby croaking from a mile away. Would be hilarious if Bertram ends up getting everything as the next-of-kin, especially if he's with Hortense. But Hortense isn't barren; she got pregnant from her tryst with the Commodore's associate last season. Although I figure Lillian doesn't know that. Link to comment

Anyway, I think the "good news" was actually "Good News." Capitalized. Which I think is religious. News for the Lord and all that jazz. I think this was my favorite episode of the season. I loved Beatrice and Frederick's song. The priest. The suicide baptism. The return of Dodo and Andrew Rennels. IT was just fun. 2 Link to comment
thuganomics85 August 12, 2016 Share August 12, 2016 Great seeing Dodo again! I'm sure a lot of her absence was because of Paget Brewster doing Grandfathered during this time, but I was missing her a lot. While it's sad for the fans of the other show, I'm hoping that cancelation could mean she'll get more to do next season. Surprised that Dodo seems to be down with the nunnery, unless this is all an act. Jemaine Clement was cracking me up as the priest. Enjoyed all of that; especially the priest dodging all of Beatrice's questions, because he really didn't have a good answer for almost all of them. Fredreick getting blackmailed by Taft over his incest, only to come out ahead, by Celery making him apologize and then leading the "anti-incest" organization, was both hilarious and surprisingly not that far off from what a lot of politicians do now. Along with him actually blaming Beatrice for his urges. Shame on you, Fredrick! Not sure how long he can keep it up though, since he truly does love Beatrice. After that epic song, there is no way to come back from it! Obviously knew Riki could sing, but Jason Ritter was pretty good in it too. Totally knew Lillian's would-be husband was going to croak before the ceremony ended. I wonder if this is setting it up for Hortense and the grandson to work-out instead, and she ends up saving the Bellacourt household instead. That would be ironic. Noticed this was one of the rare episodes that didn't have Peepers. Must have been the rare week they didn't need him or Michael Ian Black actually had another gig. 3 Link to comment
iMonrey August 12, 2016 Share August 12, 2016 OK that song was hilarious, but I kept wondering if that was really Jason Ritter and Riki Lindhome singing. It didn't sound like it, in the case of the latter. "It's very important for the church to control women's bodies." "Carmel nurges." 2 Link to comment
Phishbulb August 12, 2016 Share August 12, 2016 (edited) Comedy Central has been advertising a "3-part season finale". As far as I can tell, those 3 episodes are episodes 9, 10, and 11. (Yes, for some reason the show has an 11-episode season this year instead of 10). Episode 10 airs next Wednesday the 17th, but as far as I can tell there's no episode airing on the 24th. Anyone have any idea when the final 11th episode will air? Edit: Actually, looking at CC's online schedule I guess the 11th episode will air on the 24th. It's just not showing on my DVR listings for some reason. Incidentally, don't look at the episode title for this episode if you want to avoid spoilers.

And I think it sounds like Jason too. 3 Link to comment
ganesh August 26, 2016 Share August 26, 2016 Singing has been part of her act forever. I'm surprised there isn't more in the show. 3 Link to comment
DeLurker August 26, 2016 Share August 26, 2016 I want a couple of political speeches by Frederick to play on a loop because I've moved past amusement into sheer terror with the Presidential election. 1 Link to comment
Janc August 29, 2016 Share August 29, 2016 (edited) I've just discovered this show, and love them all, but this one was the best by far! The song was hilarious. Grandma Lillian! Edited August 29, 2016 by Janc 2 Link to comment
