Dee's yellow pant suit is a reference to one of the best basketball coaches of all time, Pat Summit. She coached women's basketball at the University of Tennessee and was known for wearing similar brightly colored pant suits.
@@JediPiIot I didn't know about Pat Summit either, so I'm maybe not the best judge, but I can totally understand seeing a ref to Big Bird. Especially given Dee's later, uh, descriptions.
I love the structure of this show. Commenting on actual social issues like poverty, the criminal justice system, racism, etc. but using morally corrupt and selfish characters to do it. It's genius. I've probably seen every episode at least 6 or 7 times and it never gets dull. As always, you're killing it with these reactions!
When I was in HS I had a part time job reffing 7-8 year old basketball and, TBH, it wasn’t THAT much different. I didn’t call a single foul all season, it was chaos, and we’d have finale scores like 4-8. I never did show up drunk though. 😜
The part where Charlie refs the match, completely drunk, and starts playing is my funniest part of the whole show. I was crying the first time I saw it!
This episode was shot before episode 4 and I don’t know why it’s episode six but if it seems to feel out of order it’s because it is. That doesn’t happen again though in the other seasons.
That's pretty common in TV generally, though, isn't it? If you don't have a direct follow-on plot, it's usually not a huge deal for the broadcast order to differ from the production order, which tends to be organized around efficiency in shooting the whole season anyway, as opposed to ep-by-ep. That's my understanding, at least. It kinda works here, too, even though this ep should follow the poop-bag one. Given America's massively under-funded justice system, I'd expect there to be some time between arrest and sentencing.
The interstate highway system is a series of federally funded highways in the US that allow for quick travel between states. A lot of community service is picking up litter on the side of the interstate. BTW, I love watching you react to this show. You are so expressive, which is incredibly cute and fun.
There's that "Adopt-A-HIghway" program, too, where charitable groups pay for the aesthetic maintenance of a given stretch and get a sign in recognition. Interestingly, the original purpose of the Interstate system was military (full name is "The Dwight D. Eisenhower National System of Interstate and Defense Highways"). Post WW2, it was realized that the domestic transit system was woefully inadequate for transporting large numbers of troops to potential war-zones on either coast. Being the Cold War, there was motivation to fix this quickly, hence the federal highways. There's also a coding in the numbers; odds go generally N/S, with numbers increasing as you move west to east, while evens run E/W, with numbers increasing as you move south to north. Finally, there's an urban legend of a requirement that there be a straight run of highway of a given length every given number of miles, so that it could be used as an emergency landing-strip for aircraft, but it apparently isn't so. Seems a good idea, though.
That seems a little harsh, at this stage. The Waitress was shady about sponsoring Charlie, sure, but she did actually own-up to it, though admittedly only when she had to (she could've tried lying about it, I suppose). Meanwhile, the Gang was turning vulnerable kids into child soldiers without the slightest bit of remorse.
When you're watching this never ending insanity, it's fun to always keep in mind that Charlie and The Waitress, and Mac and Dee, are actually married in real life!
after many many comments jumping the gun i've now learned to watch a full video before commenting. she already knows this and mentions it at the end of this video.
hey girl, I hope you're going to react to Squid Game, the south korean show that is absolutely poppin' on Netflix right now. It's blowing up all over social media so I'm sure you've heard people around you talking about it. It totally lives up to the hype in my opinion, you gotta do it! Watch it in it's original language with subtitles, don't watch it dubbed. The dubbed isn't as good and it changes some things.
Hey, it’s cool that you react to I’s Always Sunny, but as someone who came to your channel through your movie reactions and who has no interest in this show, I hope you mix it up a bit…
