I had to look that one up too. That's pretty funny.

I wonder if Dr. Spaceman will get his own spinoff.

I hope not. That would ruin him.

I too have just found out what a Hot Richard is, brilliant!

Also Parnells delivery of the line "take 25 of these a day" is just one of the funniest things I have ever heard. Didn't he also mention that the practice was more like a sideline or something?

He goes "between my medical practice and this job, I'm stretched pretty thin"

also no signature "we don't want a paper trail... haha"

That was it! he is such a great character, I start laughing as soon as I see him. It's just the look on his face that seems to say "I'm a professional and I know exactly what I'm doing".

For some reason Jenna running out of the room with her bottle of water as soon as Jack starts talking to the writers cracks me up.

It's just the perfect role for Parnell. I think a spin-off would be a terrible idea, but I'd definitely take like $8 million from my winnings and make a Dr. Spaceman film if I ever won the lottery.

This ep was great!

The Scrabble Letters had me rolling already but when Jack pulled "Hitler", I totally lost it.

I also loved when Liz swore when Tracy gave her the money roll.

Gravy Face...

< Robo outed as a Furry lover?...Jenna in her Bear outfit(no mask) was hot for some reason. I don't know what it is but Jenna/Jane K. has had me getting all hot big time this season.

Jenna has progressed from being completely disposable to one of the funnier aspects of the show since it started.

Just the image of Spaceman trying to knock Jenna unconscious while she was wearing the bear suit was absurdly funny.

And the quick clip of her as Not Janis Joplin singing the not-JJ song was hysterical. But a running gag you have to be familiar with.

Yeah Jenna passing out at the Parade in this ep was too funny.

Jenna is at her best when they build a recurring joke around her. I thought the Rural Juror one was pretty good, but this Joplin-esque thing is better.

The question should be, why would you not buy a microwave called Hitler?!

My favorite line was "the ham button" "you took my idea!"

Good episode.

Yeah, for some reason, the HITLER tiles were hilarious.

It sounds a bit like "bite niquer", which is French for something like "dick fuck".

I guess dick fucking would be offensive to lesbians? He did say homosexuals were a target market, I guess.
