I can't believe this didn't have a thread.
Anyways, the critical and commercial success of the second season caused TPTB/FX to order 3 more episodes which are airing as a kind of miniseries/"movie" Thursdays following Sunny. The first part premiered last night.
Also, I *may* have had my boyfriend play hooky from work yesterday so that I could get him all caught up beforehand. Best of all? We discovered at the liquor store that Tanqueray makes a Vodka called "Sterling" if you want to be as constantly sloshed as the characters.
The "look" of the show is gorgeous and every voice actor is flawless. And, look, Lucille Bluth, you were okay, but Mallory is the drunken, distant mother role that Jessica Walter was born to play.
It's the best workplace comedy on television right now. Seriously.
You guys, each episode is so densely layered with jokes, visual gags, throwaways flying fast and furiously that upon rewatching the entire series within the last week, I found new stuff to laugh about despite having seen them all before. It is, quite simply, the absolute best.
And infinitely, infinitely quotable and so very very un-PC in the most amusing way.
