Not the worst episode
13 August 2007 | by See all my reviews

All episodes of AD have ratings here on IMDb, and as of this writing, with a 7.9, Notapusy is ranked the lowest among the 53. Is it the worst episode? To imitate Ron: It isn't. Not even close. Notapusy is a highlight of season 3, including a hilarious bit where George Michael turns his back to anything thrown at him. Falling short when it comes to sports is something I think a lot of men can relate to, and both George Michael and Michael represent that here. Season 3 is known for its callbacks to earlier episodes- mostly it imitated the first two seasons- but by the end season 3 imitates itself by showing George Michael turning away from keys thrown to him. Good stuff.
