WWVMD? Hilarious! Glad to see they cleared up the Andy stuff pretty quickly and hopefully he'll be back into the fold soon. That scene with the Military contract was excellent 'Suck Yourself!'.

This was a fantastic episode. Lots of hilarious, unexpected jokes, and even more enexpected turns in the story.

If anything, I applaud this show for its ability to always be changing, usually for the better.

This was a much better episode than the last few. This season has been good so far, but I don't feel like the characters have been getting anywhere. The first 4 episodes almost could have been condensed into two, but they were still good. I hope they get some shit stirring up soon. U-Turn is starting to lose the love I have for him.

I watched season 1 and 2 right before 3 started. I must say, I think this season has started off poorly. It doesnt have the same draw that the first 2 seasons had. I hope it gets better or I might stop watching.

I thought that this episode was very good. The first four this season had some good moments, but were just ok overall.

Still really love the show, I just think its getting a bit too dark... I love U-Turn, but I miss Nancy going to Heylia's house and the intereactions that take place there. They show the differences between the two worlds, and it being pretty believable. The situations Nancy is getting into with U-Turn are a bit too over the top and I think she would have cracked by now.

Funny episode.

"Suck Yourself!"

"WWVMD"

Shit, I was even laughing at the drive by. I damn near lost it when the teacher pulled out the picture of the aborted fetus.

I'm with Doom, I wish we still had the interaction between Heylia and Nancy, since it was usually pretty funny.

Are you kidding? He bought seven Priuses and gave Nancy a copy of "The Secret," funny stuff.

Yes, U-Turn was top-notch in this episode. I haven't been a huge fan of his, but the drive by shooting was hilarious. Is it believable that he'd do that out in the open in the daytime? No, not really, but oh well--still funny.

I just thought of something.. and maybe it was obvious, but Celia now owns Nancy's house.

Wait, don't get me wrong. I still love me some U-Turn, but I don't really feel a sense of anything, danger or otherwise, when he shows up. He's just another comedic device for Nancy to play off of. He still cracks me up. I just want his story to start going somewhere.

One of the few out and out laughs Ive had this season in regards to Nancy's story line... how he bought them because they were so quiet and he could sneak up on his rivals... funny stuff

I was pretty sure that Celia picked a house out of Majestic off that model, not Agrestic...
