To be fair, Sarah, I have a strong feeling that you are on the extreme left side of the curve in terms of patience for cute little ways, no?

Actually, it depends on the cute little ways in question.  I'm not knee-jerk anticute. 

I believe this is my 2000th post.  God help me.

edit:  Apparently it isn't.  That milestone came and went unnoticed.

The show is like Paste Magazine coming to life. Heinous. Well, for me at least.

I've been packing (or trying to pack) all my stuff to move in a week and since Thursday I don't think I've been without a coffee cup in my hand. I feel like Nancy... they're starting to recognize me at the Starbucks down the street...

Has anyone else been watching season 4? I love it in all it's ridiculous glory. Celia is a delicious trainwreck. And Esteban? Oh my. Demian Bichir is fantastic in so many ways.

I wasn't a big fan of s3, but this season has been much stronger.  Celia loves her Mexican marching powder!

Yes, thank goodness someone agrees with me.  Season 4 is the best since early Season 1.

1 > 4 > 2 > 3.  If you are following along with the show on DVD, SKIP SEASON 3, and you can even think about skipping season 2.  It's a depressing mess.  You just watch Nancy get her ass kicked over and over and over and over and over.  Read a recap.

Season 4 has been a lot more fun, though if you'd described it to me beforehand I would have rolled my eyes.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

I liked season 3 but didn't like season 2.... well I liked season 2 enough to keep watching.

If you're going to skip season 3, make you at least catch PFT's appearance as a super religious summer school teacher.

I agree about season 3, but Romany Malco is always great. I've only seen the first 3 episodes of season 4 and I miss Doug and Conrad and Heylia.

I liked the the show. My ladyfriend and I burn through the seasons when they come out on dvd.

Ick, that sounds like a stoner pun. I should say that we shoot through them. Yeeeeah. You know what I mean.

All in all, I grew extremely tired of Mary-Louise Parker's cute little ways.

This is exactly what I've been telling everyone about why I've grown tired of Bush and Cheney.

I wasn't crazy about Season 1 but I've been watching Season 2 online because I'm stuck in Louisville for a week on business and I don't have much else to do. Maybe it has to do with those circumstances, but I'm enjoying 2 much more than I did 1.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

Come on, Fido.  I bet when Dick Cheney looks up at you through his eyelashes while sucking on his iced coffee you still can't resist him.

Doug shows up big time.

I admit that is took half a season for the series to really get momentum. But I try not to hold any series accountable to the first couple of episodes while it's trying to find it's rhythm.

Oh man but Albert Brooks was so funny!

And, even if a season of it isn't so great (I think they were all pretty good) it's only a half hour show so you're not wasting THAT much time with it. Season 4 is definitely worth it.

I'm pretty razzed for 4

Celia is my totem. If I took a Spirit Quest in the desert, after three days of fasting hallucinogens, Celia would appear to me and kick sand in my face and tell me get up and lose weight.
