Can't wait, I can't believe how long it took to come back, but finally it's almost here.

Barry quietly returned last night. Just as good as it's ever been.

Hader tells a funny story about Hanks interrogation scene here. Also, other Hader hilariousness.

This season isn’t very good. There are a few good laughs I guess, but it feels like just a bunch of uninteresting sub plots without a main plot. It probably should have wrapped up after 2 seasons.

Hard disagree; I'm still getting a few great belly laughs out of each episode and there's that usual undercurrent of unease that will lead up to some catastrophic event in the ultimate or penultimate episode for the season.

Agreed that the humor makes it worth watching still. I'm just not very interested in any of the plots and the Chechen gang war stuff is a big mess.

Certainly in that house, it is.

"This is crazy #### show..."

Pretty well. What a wild ride. From Sally's vanity, to the assault on the greenhouse, to Barry's offer of help by using psychological warfare, to the final scene.

This and Better Call Saul have been the most unpredictable series I've watched in a while.

What a great episode. The bike chase was so well shot, especially at the used car dealership. And then...

It was surreal watching a live action Grand Theft Auto video game sequence play out on TV.

I had the captioning on during the car dealership scene and one of the characters said "That was cool!". That's what I was thinking as a viewer, but if I had been there in real life I can't imaging saying that!

Just caught up, Barry is neck and neck with BCS as the best show on TV right now. I was laughing so hard at Barry speech-to-texting in the store and then Sally reading it out on her phone, he's a complete nutcase now

I loved it when he was consoling Sally and just calmly starts detailing how he could get revenge on her nemesis for her. That was my biggest laugh of the entire show.

"Are you going to send her an angry letter or something?"

No....nothing like that.

I really loved during the bike chase scene where the auto rifle guy on the van on the freeway misses Barry then tosses the gun down to the other guy coming by on a dirt bike.

Any movie or show would have that as an awesome choreographed moment. On Barry he throws the gun down, the biker looks up confused, mishandles it making it fire while dropping it, then is so thrown off by the gun throw that he smashes into a car and goes flipping over it. I had to rewind and laugh at that twice, it was so awesome.

I've actually noticed a very beautiful hint of the Naked Gun movies with Leslie Nielson in this series and I love it. I bet Bill Hader really loved those movies and those moments are a purposeful homage.

as someone else mentioned season 3 has had a lot of the characters very separated, and was feeling kind of disjointed. Last night's episode was terrific though.. great style!

Did anybody catch in Episode 6, Vanessa Bayer's character was named Morgan Dawn-Cherry?

That can't be a coincidence, can it? Odd throwaway reference to make though.
