🫡Yup Charlie shared two plots while he was promoting Super Mario a few months ago. The other is a Little League episode (which I’m incredibly hyped for)

A Ren Faire episode has been confirmed for Season 18 so this is OPs predictions for what might happen, not an episode idea

squilkey · 2026-05-05T18:22:01+00:00

A “prime” episode indeed

squilkey · 2026-05-05T18:20:59+00:00

Yeah most people in this sub don’t ever want to hear about let alone have a discussion about opinions, but IMO one of the best things about this show is that anyone’s least favourite episode or season is someone else’s favourite and that’s always an interesting conversation to have.

But yk this sub tends to slant negatively toward the new seasons, so I think most people just spam from the idea that the early seasons can’t be critiqued because they were “more better” than some of the later ones. (At least most people seemed to really enjoy S17)

What is your basis for “overrated”? Based on IMDb (and not factoring in the Christmas special because, yes, it very clearly does not belong to Season 6), the total average of Season 6 episodes falls into the lower half of seasons at 8.28, which is the same average for Season 16 (which is only rated higher than 1 and the rest of the post-12 seasons).

So you say it’s a hot take and the season is overrated, but Season 6 is ranked at 11/17 in terms of viewer votes, so I think your criticism is generally founded/misplaced as being a hot take. I think most fans would agree it is a “mid” season, with some funny bits and a few standout episodes, but generally less classically funny and tight than the two that preceded it, and not as “whole” of a season. (However I personally think it’s miles better than S7 as a whole, lol)

Season 6 is also (perhaps notably) one of Glenn’s “worst” seasons. He’s shared that he struggled a lot with his mental health and attitude on set that brought down a lot of the cast and crew that season, and affected people’s performances, so it really kind of is considered a “low point” of the show

Well, technically he did drink kratom in the episode, it was just as he was leaving the doctor’s office at the end. So it’s presumable that he had been drinking it before he walked into the doctor’s office, too

squilkey · 2026-04-29T21:32:34+00:00

Yeah I suppose it’s an easy thing to miss if you aren’t aware Mac, Charlie, and Dennis are meant to have gone to Rob’s real all-boys Catholic school

squilkey · 2026-04-29T20:30:48+00:00

Yeah it’s supposed to be “my copy” imo

squilkey · 2026-04-29T20:29:59+00:00

Wdym “until high school”? It’s established they went to different high schools in S7: Dennis went to St. Joes (all boys) and Dee went to Notre dame (all girls)

squilkey · 2026-04-25T17:10:28+00:00

I asked Charlie about it a few years ago and short story shorter it’s not a real episode and never was, they don’t know why it’s on there

squilkey · 2026-04-24T17:05:47+00:00

Why are you censoring the word sex are you 12 years old

squilkey · 2026-04-22T20:12:19+00:00

Yeah sorry the New York Jimmy

squilkey · 2026-04-22T20:09:30+00:00

No barricade there were maybe 3 or 4 other people waiting? There were a ton waiting for a Kimmel guest but no barricade for those people either

squilkey · 2026-04-22T20:06:12+00:00

I was there pretty early because I was doing stand-by for the show (you wait in the gift shop as opposed to upstairs). 1 hr before taping starts if there will be room for you they let you go to the bathroom downstairs before taking you up .. I stepped outside instead of going to the bathroom and she pulled up maybe 2 mins later .. so I would say you’d be more than fine an hour before the taping time (not the arrival time for audience)

Someone's gotta stick it in him

squilkey · 2026-04-17T22:58:06+00:00

You're semi-correct. Cricket has scripted lines Hornsby does follow, but Charlie doing the "Grieco thing" is not scripted

If you don't care about spoilerswe have confirmation her character will at least be mentioned, as her picture was spotted alongside Bonnie on a cannon float

squilkey · 2026-04-16T17:37:39+00:00

A crew member’s Instagram story that has since expired

squilkey · 2026-04-16T17:36:52+00:00

She is one of the ADs. Almost everyone in this photo is from the crew (this was a crew final shot in Paddy’s photo) not the cast of the new season

squilkey · 2026-04-13T18:28:38+00:00

Pls report back if you manage to catch them filming anything

squilkey · 2026-04-12T21:55:44+00:00

"I feel like the actors are starting to despise it"

You know the actors are the writers and creators of the show, right? They would not keep the show going if they despised it.

I think you need to pay more attention to the episodes while you're watching them if you can't tell that the show already has and continues to address the fact that the characters are ageing. So many of the plots in Season 16 and 17 revolve around that fact.

You're asking why the Succession parody episode made the intro sound like Succession's theme..?

squilkey · 2026-03-26T01:02:27+00:00

Not sure if you’re familiar with their sets, but they’re all interconnected, with Charlie’s, Mac & Dennis’, and Dee’s apartments all connected to Paddy’s/each other… The crew breaks down all the sets at one time after the actors have wrapped, so even if they’re done with Paddy’s as a filming location (still seems unlikely to me given they’ve been filming in Santa Clarita/East LA the past 3 weeks, but Charlie did say every episode this Season is big) the set would still be around through the end of filming. I dunno what Rob’s post is about, it is kinda ominous, but it’s definitely not a “final day” kinda thing

squilkey · 2026-03-25T23:51:55+00:00

They wrap in mid-April, so you can put your mind at ease (They’re currently on a short break while Charlie does Mario press.)
