I'm pretty sure that this show hates me. It punishes me for watching it.

Reminds me of Life in Hell. A lot. That's a good thing.

But I can't watch more than one of these things a week.

I meant to go see if they put anything up, thanks for posting it.

Episode was great, really let Jon Benjamin flex his voice a lot.

Show is really GD good now. It started off a little shaky but since they found their stride it's been really solid. Probably have to be a little invested in the characters to get a lot of the jokes, but it's not like Venture Bros. where everything ties back in to something from before.

Thread necro, but I just started watching this on Netflix out of boredom and learning that H. Jon Benjamin stars. Holy shit it's hilarious and more people need to watch it.

Bob is funny, but the kids take the funny to the next level. I think Louise is one of my all-time favorite animated characters.

Louise is good, but I like Gene more. Most shows have a character like Louise but I really can't think of a show that's had a character like Gene without making it overtly gay. It's usually the little touches with Gene rather than the big gags. It's like Linda has three daughters!

Altho that episode where Gene glued Bob's hair to himself and became mini-bob for the whole episode had me loling.

Even Tina is pretty great a lot of the time.

Show is awesome, best voice cast outside of Archer. Love how they always use lesser known/alternative comedians for the guest roles. Just the other day I noticed I'd missed an episode where they went to the museum, watched it an Jim Gaffigan was the voice of the other dork.

Maybe it is because the first season episode that sold me on this show was Sexy Dance Fighting, but how can you not love how akward Tina is at all times? They have her combination of shy, repressed, confused, and mildly autistic just right. I love Gene and Louise but I really think Tina is my favorite character.

This show gives me a happy king of the hill feeling.

Tina's anxiety "uuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" cracks me up.

"Slumber Parties are the cat's pajamas, especially when I wear my cat pajamas." This show is epic.

I've been re-watching S4 with my kids every night before they go to bed (after bath time). I've tricked them into thinking it's a kids cartoon.

Ha! Marathoned the first three seasons with my niece and nephews over the last 2 weekends. Theyloveit. Gene and Louise especially, of course. One of them asked about her bunny hat and I mentioned there was an episode where she had it stolen, we had to watch the episode immediately.

Rewatching from the start is nice, you realize it was pretty GD good right away. I was on board right away, but even as the local cheerleader for the show I always hemmed and hawed that the beginning wasn't as good. Nope, it was outstanding right from the start.
