This felt like a set-up episode for the final two. Not bad, but not the usual hilarious raunchfest.

Yeah, this was the weakest episode of the season. I could have done without the scenes at the bowling alley. I'm hoping that's the last we see of the parents. For some reason I went into this one thinking it was the finale, so I was really disappointed with how I thought they had ended it. I was happy (and surprised) to see the preview for next week.

Liked this one much better then last week. Last weeks sort of bored me but this week with Tomlin and her interactions with Kenny were gold.

Are there two more? For some reason I thought next week's was the last, but seeing the previews it sure doesn't look like the last one. I was hoping for much more baseball this season, but I guess that's not going to happen.

Also, I agree last night was the weakest episode this year. But I disagree this has been the least funniest season...I didn't like Season 2 very much at all.

I thought that it was a pretty obscure reference. I don't think he's a popular porn star outside the porn world (maybe not even popular inside it either?)

At the beginning, did Lily Tomlin mess up and really punch the actress playing the bowler chick? Because as soon as she does the punch, you can see her hands come up to her face as if she were in shock for accidentally making real contact... unlike the very next shot where Lily's character has a casual demeanour and her hands are down. It looks like contact was made if you play it in slow motion.

Loved the scene with Kenny and his mom exchanging pharmaceuticals. And where did she get her money? Did they say? Is she some sort of bowling champion or something? I also liked when they got to Kenny's mom's house - the motley crew assembled.
