So, I was watching that episode last night and I never noticed this before, but her name tag said "Karen". Do you think it was a wacky coincidence or an Easter Egg?
Did it ever come across to anyone else that they didn't play it up so much that Corner Gas was outside town limits, but that Brent himself was? Like his house was still in Dog River, but between Oscar talking about "who knows what he gets up to out in the boonies" and Lacey bragging that Brent is now the crazy outsider. It's just a little wacky if you ask me.
I know the poor guy had more things to worry about, but shouldn't he have had the doors on the filing cabinets facing him so he could put stuff in the drawers.
I mean yes, you throw them, but you can't throw the match.
One of my two favorite NBC sitcom quotes involving stapling paper. Just another example of good writing made great by Glenn.
(the other is "Come on I'm Dean and my hands are so clean. At this moment, I am stapling" from Community)
Staple your tongue? Help Oscar? Staple your tongue? Help Oscar?
I always got a chuckle out of Garvin's sporadic appearances and his random love of Ray, but I just read an article where someone listed it as one of the more annoying reoccurring jokes on ELR, so I guess I figured I'd ask yous guys. To me it wasn't overdone and I don't remember him being on often enough to become annoying, but oh well. What do y'all think?
Maybe they could trick him first by saying some of those nameless voiceless C-level characters are degens from Upcountry to tire him out a little bit first.
I was sitting here thinking how much I enjoyed the zaniness of that episode and wished she would have stayed. But then I realized if she stayed then she becomes the out of towner yearning for acceptance and struggles to live in a town of about 500 people, which is Lacey's thing. So at that point you're either taking away Lacey's story or having two people doing the exact same thing, just one from Toronto and one from a much smaller town. Do you think that had she stayed as a character that it could have been a Jump The Shark moment for Corner Gas?
I thought it was a funny punchline that it was Hank's hat that kept them away and not the licky disco or anything else, but why? I know it's a tv show, so you have to take things with a grain of salt, but it just seemed like "we have an idea, but can't think of a way out" and we got the randomness of his hat.
I can't fully explain it, but every rewatch I do I skip Oh Baby. I just don't think it's funny at all and I'm happy most episodes are stand alone so I can skip it and not miss important story telling that's important for later
This has always kinda bugged me. Maybe it was supposed to be different incidents, but they never said that. Schillinger and co prag Guenzel in the conveniently placed Unit B closet and the next moment is Beecher finding him naked, bleeding and sweating in the gym.
How did he get to the gym? Especially while naked and bleeding from his Pragging.
Every so often it's nice to shout out to Brent
I have too much time on my hands, so I've been thinking about this. How did the customers know that everything was accidentally reduced to 25 cents? Like obviously it started with 1 person buying something and "oh look that's horribly underpriced" but how does that lead to dozens of people just knowing what's going on? Wouldn't the assumption be that item was messed up and not everything?
​
Now I know someone is going to point out that this is just a television show and it made for a funny couple minutes (and it did), I am just trying to look at it logically.
He may just be a tad voyeuristic
