You’re the Worst S3 E6 ‘The Last Sunday Funday’

Sunday Fundays are the greatest things created by You’re the Worst. I find it funny that in the show they have made Sunday Funday something that everyone is doing. So the worsties are going to have to stop doing this so they can feel cool.

Gretchen wants them all to go on a scavenger hunt to find a bar. Jimmy acts like he doesn’t want to help  them find the bar but clearly he does.The Scavenger hunt leads them to a library where they still manage to drink from a flask. Of course the whole idea is to have fun and drink.

Gretchen and the worsties head to see Gretchen’s clients. Her client knows ragtime which is a rather interesting thing. I honestly would have never pegged this character to be of help.  The next stop is the foot clinic where they try to find the next clue. They end up scaring a business man who drops his briefcase. When a phone rings Jimmy solves the next riddle and a key pops out.

Jimmy is really enjoying this quest even though he doesn’t want to admit it. Edgar high is so funny, as he has clearly never been high before. Opening the briefcase they find a picture of themselves taken at the library. On the back is a map which of course will lead them forward.

They call Paul for help and he tells them where they have to go, then joining them. Edgar is high and isn’t flinching at the explosions behind him when before they would have triggered him. He buys fireworks and they launch him in his direction so he can immerse himself. I love how much fun these characters have, it is clear this show is a blast to work on.

They find a qr code that when scanned leads them on another trek and end up at the wrong place. Gretchen and Lindsay fight while Paul watches. Jimmy tears them apart and goes to the house again, thinking they are actors. They are locked up for breaking into someone’s house.

When Paul sits on the toilet, he vanishes and Lindsay thinks she is witch. Jimmy sits and the wall turns letting them in, soon they find themselves in the speakeasy. The speakeasy is boring and the drinks are overpriced. Jimmy and Gretchen both wanted the other to be happy.

Lindsay tells Paul she wants to bed other guys for their marriage.  Jimmy sings at the bar, and has a good voice. Gretchen muses that this is definitely the last Sunday Funday. This episode was filled with good character development, a few sweet moments between characters, and a grand quest. Thoroughly enjoyed this episode and honestly will be sad if this really is the last Sunday Funday.

I am excited as always for the next episode,’The only thing that helps’

You’re the Worst S3 E5- ‘Twenty Two’

Edgar is troubled by the world and can’t sleep so he ends up dancing in his room.Edgar is such an interesting character because he is just like so many of us just trying to get by. He decides to go out for a run and sees someone running from a van though its just the newspaper boy. His hands start to shake as he brings the pancakes for his friends.

Edgar is very troubled by so many things and is paranoid when he locks eyes with a telephone wire worker. This episode is interesting because it takes place during the previous episode but from Edgar’s perspective.

Edgar goes to buy all of Jimmy’s treats and sees a woman in a burka.He is freaking out and tries to get out of the store as quickly as possible.He goes to see his girlfriend and is forceful with her. She is often afraid of him because of his looks and attitude. She wants him to really try at the VA because they can fix him.

He goes to the VA and has his appointment. The woman likes him and decides to put him in 10 sessions of Virtual Reality therapy. He has stopped taking the drugs he was prescribed and that stops her in her tracks. Sudden;y he flips out and starts breaking chairs. She tells him to make another appointment once he is medicated even though the first one took him a month to get.

His paranoia is really something to see as I think it is quite realistic. The fact that he keeps seeing the same man everywhere he is goes is unnerving even as the viewer. He decides to get drunk and tells Jimmy that he can’t drive Jimmy and Gretchen home.

For a moment it seems like he is going to contemplate suicide until he sees a little paper boat. He is suddenly stopped by a young film crew and they he think he has a good look.He runs back to his car to find it being towed. He gets high with the tow truck driver and finds out twenty two vets jump off the overpass every day.

The man helps him with good conversation about other vets and he drives him home.Edgar realizes the face he has been seeing was from his tape case. Quite funny because he really is freaking but it is just something that makes him laugh.

The end of the episode shows Edgar in a the kids silent film.

This episode was rather interesting. Something that isn’t really shown on TV. It even has a good message thrown in, if you stop asking for help all the time and just start living for yourself you will be happy. Edgar has been just looking for help and hasn’t looked within. Now, he will be working himself to make his life what he wants and should be happier for it. Excited for the next episode but will be sad if it really is “The Last Sunday Funday.”
