User Reviews

I love the direction this series is going!

"Well, I can't draw anymore. What's the point in wasting my time when I can be here popping pills and drinking beer, sticking my gimp hand down guys' pants?" ~Justin

I really love the direction that the series is headed directly after this episode, with Michael starting his own business with a comic store (thanks to a couple of amazing scenes and lots of encouragement from Brian) and Ted starting a porn business (I can't WAIT to see how that crap ends up for him!) It was also interesting to see Justin regain his courage to draw again in a somewhat different way, as motivated by Brian. It really is true that Brian loves him; the very first thing he thinks about when he sees the new high-tech drawing device is Justin and only Justin. Debbie is also touching in her sincerity in almost every single sequence. I can't wait to see the next episode, as this one was just thrilling, touching, and hilarious.
