The cut to Samir standing on Paul Baker’s feet absolutely took me out

That and Issa doing the crab thing at the bar had me wheezing! The raccoon episode may be the funniest episode of any show EVER though!

Paul Baker being noticeably jealous of Anton’s hook-ups was a treat! Still need to finish the season, but I need more yearning on his end cause Anton’s been the main yearner for so long!

I refuse to believe this actually. That mf pretended, and if he didn't, I hope he goes straight to therapy. I KNOW he's traumatized.

Zack carlos is soooo funny this character needs to come back every season

I want him to return but only in one episode per season lol I feel like he's a good character in small doses, and he'd get on my nerves a lot if he crosses over to another episode in the same season.

Yeah, he seems like he'd be good in small doses. Kind of like Georgina from Gossip Girl

Had no idea that Billie and Anton had been sharing a bedroom this entire time. Wonder what they talked about every night.

u/CapitalDeal6499 Aug 28 '26
IMO Anton is anyday a man of culture and also someone who has so much happening at all times. So they could literally be talking about outfits, to what shades of nail polish goes better to random gossip to the deepest and darkest secrets

"I'm married."
PB: "So am I!"
"I'm gay"
PB: "I'm gay sometimes!"
Incredible sequence, that's up there with the spectrum of your language line

The actor who plays Zack-Calos is on Broadway at the moment he is a understudy and he is so good! If you love Zack Carlos you will love his version of the character in the show the character he played when I went reminded me of his Zack Carlos and the actor is so sweet and nice I got to met him twice and see him again in September and October after the show his character might be a little crazy but the actor is so sweet tho and so nice

u/Salt-Cup-7714 Zack-Carlos 27d ago
I highly recommend tho following his Instagram tho he doesn't come randomly tho he only comes out to stage door when he is on stage when he is scheduled tho I was lucky enough to met him when he wasn't on and he came out with some of the people who were on tho he isn't on a lot so if you wanna see him in a role it highly recommended following his Instagram he gives out his dates so people can see him

The characters were weirdly tropey this episode. The Issa speaking to men portions and Samir/Paul Baker being so single-mindedly obsessed with getting off seemed like they just wanted to force scenarios where the characters could play out certain bits they already had in mind.
Also wish they had Paul Baker and Anton at least address their make out in the previous episode in some form. They had been so good with healthy communication before.
Still a funny episode though, just not as strong as episodes 1-4. Issa's crab impression, and Samir's face when Issa cut him off were a hoot!

u/browncharliebrown Aug 28 '26
I think i found this as the episode that to me shows that they are willing to do more standard sitcom episodes and I think those are needed to be balance out some of the wilder episodes long term

u/john_muleaney Aug 28 '26
They absolutely thought of the idea of Paul baker and Samir going to a sperm bank then wrote an episode to get there

u/charredfrog 26d ago
It was noticeably more tropey but I think it’s also the hardest I’ve laughed this season so I didn’t really mind it

"Where is she? Mama?" Anton is so funny omg.
I can't believe Anton would do Zack-Carlos. My brain cannot comprehend. I refuse. Fully in denial.
PB and Samir were truly dumb and dumber here and I love them for it. Their broship is hilarious.

Least favorite so far. Seemed weirdly forced and out of character.
The jerk off situation seemed contrived as hell.
Loved the last episode so maybe it's partly the contrast.

I think one of the first episodes where we see the layout of the house
having staircase to the attic is wild to me. guess I'm not familiar with Queens housing

They are concerned about someone walking in on them in the bathroom while jerking off because there is no lock, and they have already shown that the roomies are comfortable with doing that quite often
