    So I just finished watching the last episode, and have to say that now that he's back in the US, the funny is back too.

    While not back to full form it had previously, I'd give it a fairly solid 7.5/10 and say it's rekindled my interest.

    It really is the juxtaposition of his behavior against normal society that makes it work. Put him in an environment that isn't our version of normal (Mexico) and it fails.

    Well if that's the case, and next season does in fact take place in Myrtle Beach, then it will also be less funny. There is nothing normal about that city.

    But it might be funny to watch him be the relatively normal one for a change.

    It's funny how opposite we are on this particular season. I don't mind that he's back in the US, but I really didn't like the 'cliffhanger' - and I hope like hell that Kenny isn't a dad, because I think that will suck balls. But I could be wrong.

    Overall, I liked this season a lot, and I am looking forward to Myrtle Beach.

    Probably not as good over all as season one. Still some memorable stuff. The only thing I thought was really bad was the waste of a character they made his dad out to be. How much potential did that have? Don Johnson wasn't horrible but it wasn't very funny.

    Well figured Id give this thread a bump since the new season started last night. I thought it was pretty good. I like his counter part on the baseball team but am really looking foreword to Stevie's return. I hope Katy Mixon gets more screen time as I think she is a good layer for the show that was missing last season and she was solid in last night's episode.

    Jason Sudeikis is certainly blowing up these days, or so it seems, good addition to the show. Do you think BigCannons will be back though? It seemed liked she wouldn't be, what with abandoning the baby with KP...
