Good start to the season. Really underrated and under-appreciated show.

Think everyone can relate to the plot of this episode...your buddy gets a girlfriend, you don't hang with him anymore until they break up.

The cabin trip was great.

This ep was shocking. I've never seen such graphic nudity and stuff on a cable station. Holy shit!

Every douchebag complaining about being "friendzoned" should see this last episode.

That was a pretty good episode and pretty sure there was insufficient blurring on a few of the nude guy scenes.

It's FXX so they can probably get away with more, but You're the Worst and Nip/Tuck had a lot too.

I kinda groaned when I saw that this episode would be a Josh and Mike free episode, since it was one of the "Woman Seeking Man" eps about Josh's sister.

Liz dating Santa Claus was mildly amusing.

The Woman Seeking Man episode from last season was one of the highlights imho. This one wasn't as good.

The solo episodes about Josh's sister are more consistently funny than the regular episodes. This was wickedly funny in spots when she's dating Santa. While the writing for this show is very sharp, Jay Baruchel is an uneven comic actor at best. He's better suited to light drama and dramedies.

The latest episode (2-17-16) was pretty good. The "I was nice to her, so she has to be my girlfriend" law, and aftermath, was executed great. Lots of funny scenes, especially when Josh had the "friend" badge and got to cut the line.

Re: Man Seeking Woman (FXX) - Season 2 Thread - premieres 1/6/16

I know this show is mainly about the failures of dating for a guy, but I'd like to see at least a 5 episode arc of Josh and a steady girlfriend. I know there have been 2-3 episodes where he had one girlfriend, but they were quick storylines.

But I am excited to see the Mike and Rosa storyline, since there was a hint of that at the end of the last episode.

I've been kind of bored with Rosa as his primary love interest. The show hasn't gone out of its way to make her seem like a fantastic possible girlfriend for him.

I think that is the point.

I'm just loving this season thus far. This whole story arc has me hooked. It's still silly but they are adding a little heart and I love a little heart...

This show is a like a sketch comedy. Some segments are absolutely hysterical, while other scenes do nothing for me. I gave up on this Rosa episode about halfway through, I just don't like the character that much.

I don't care for Rosa either, but that means you missed the part of the episode with Carrie Anne Moss, which was the best/funniest part.

If you still don't care to go back and watch, Rosa breaks up with Mike for being too clingy and the episode ends with her sending a "hey" text to Josh.

I absolutely lost it when Carrie Anne Moss said Rosa would be charged with being an "aggravated c*nt"

Solid season finale, good to know that the Rosa storyline is wrapped up and we won't be seeing her anymore.

Not sure if this has been renewed yet, but I hope to see it back next year.
