Solid episode. I love how Hank couldn't get rid of any of them; and he thought it would be so easy. The scene with the Dean was great. I really can't stand Becca anymore; she was funny and cool in Seasons 1 and 2, but this Season she sucks and is unbearable. Teenagers I guess. Runkle's boss is insane.

While I'm enjoying this Season, it still doesn't compare to Season 1. I wish we would get back to Hank's writing career and have Mia back again; at least during Season 2 he was writing something, but here the writers seems to just be wasting time having Hank teach a course to give him something to do and provide some conflict. The show's been renewed for a fourth season so I hope we see a return to his writing by the end of this season and the start of the next.

My biggest laugh of the night was when the other bad boy author was trying to get Felicia, Hank comes back and tells him to dip his balls in his WordTea.

Yup, that was definitely Ken Marino from The State, well known for his catchphrase "I wanna dip my balls in it!"

I recognized him as Vinnie Van Lowe. Funny thing is, his character here wasn't all that different.

That LD flippage brought back some good memories. Though, why didn't they have an auto-flipper LD player? I guess the point would not have been made with such a model. Anyhow, kudos, for sure.

He said he'd give me an A.

I was really hoping they'd show Runkle blowing cocaine up her ass.
