I thought this was another great episode. If this doesn't last I'll be seriously bummed. Great work from the cast, great lines, great detail on the restaurant world, both on specifics and on philosophy. Just all around great.

This may well be the last any of us sees of the series.
Which would be typical, as the wife and I caught this for the first time last night and thought it was hilarious.

It's one of those shows like A.D. that is too funny for the Masses.

Also, I liked the pseudo reference to the great John Laroquette Show, with John trying to get Jack to start drinking again. Plus, I expect the agony of a recovering alcoholic contemplating a drink from Rescue Me, but I was very impressed with the way Cooper and the writers handled it in such a tiny moment on KC. I think this is a far smarter and more intricate show than its detractors realize. If it goes it'll really be a shame. Maybe they can replace it was a Friends rip-off or a reality show.

Good episode plus it had an appearance by John Larroquette.

I was wondering the same thing.

After a couple of episodes, this show just ain't doing it for me. With the ratings the way it is, I doubt that it will be around much longer.

I'd love to see John Cho on the show though.

AH??? Are you talking about Alyson Hannigan and the show "How I Met Your Mother"?

Then the answer is yes, the show is a semi-hit and doing fine in the ratings.

Might be a little glitch from the server upgrade.

Spooky. Time warp! LorenzoL answered Daniel-A's question before he even asked it.

Yeah I was. Psh. This show's ratings are morbid.

( both this thread and the HIMYM thread were in my control panel I got mixed up )

It looks even better since he didn't edit the post, too. Too cool.

Don't forget your original KC thread that I thought you started the night before. For some reason, the glitch is really hitting you hard.

I don't think he's a regular. More of a recurring character, I think.
