(Sorry I took so long to get here.)

I laughed so hard during both eps.

The first ep:

LMAD - Wayne was good as the "Love Rooster of the 70's," aka Barry White. But he was upstaged by Colin's & Ryan's quirks: Colin as a gawky teenager hoping to score on his date, and Ryan as Colin's UGLIER competitive brother. (They were right that "ugliER" was a good, funny choice for the writers to make.) I always get a big kick when one of the guys figures out what's happening, like when Colin knew Ryan was basically doing a caricature of him. Did Colin give him the finger behind his date's back? And then Colin says to her, "Don't notice the stud sitting beside you. He'll blind you with his beauty," or something like that. Both dates, btw, were good. I particularly liked that gal who never tried to upstage Colin and just enjoyed the whole thing tremendously. And then there was Greg's guess about Colin: "Colin was you, Drew, as a teenager!" Great game.

Hats - I'm a bit tired of this game... AND they've been doing it so much in recent eps. There are always funny bits in them, but they basically all sound familiar.

Fashion Models - This was pretty good. Actually, I think my favorite part of this was Greg's commentary. He's so good at it. Mr. Snackwell. Hee hee. And btw, Drew, Greg did not once say "tight end." Yes, I expected it too, but when I watched & listened the second time, I paid particular attention to it, and he never said it. He said something like, "tight in the middle and loose in the end." I expected a "tight end" joke, as I'm sure Drew did, but Greg came up with lots of football references without resorting to the obvious one.

SFAH - Things you can say about your boat but not your girlfriend. I know they've done variations on this theme a few times, but I always enjoy it. My favorite, from Colin: "SHE'S TAKING ON WATER!" True, in a bizarre way... or bizarre in a true way. I also liked Greg's "Nice aft" and Ryan's "She's going down!"

Newsflash - The clip itself (of a male stripper/cop) was not that great, IMO, but I loved Colin's responses & comments. "What's the official word, Colin?" Colin: "The official word is... 'Oh!'" But tell me, where did they get this clip? Was this something created for bachelorette parties for those gals who don't quite have to nerve to hire a real life guy to strip for them?

Hoedown - All good verses. Even Drew's!

The second ep:

Hollywood Director - Not the best version of this game, but redeemed by the Product Testimonial part. Good lines -- From Colin: "You notice how clean the floor is? Because you all SUCK!" Also from Colin, looking at Ryan's blue shoes: "How many Smurfs did you have to step on to get THOSE?"

Improbable Mission - My favorite game of the ep, though Greg & Brad do much better instructions than Wayne. I loved how Colin picked up on Wayne's redundant comment by saying, "Oh, dangerous AND perilous!" Then after Wayne says they're shopping for the President of EatAllYouCan, Ryan points to Drew and says, "We've got a picture of him on our wall." But Colin adds that he seems like a lovely person and probably great to work for. CYA. Colin's bit with the ice cube & glass-cutting nipple was great. All the business with the wobbly wheeled cart was funny, including Colin riding in it. Then Ryan slips and says "extensive" instead of "expensive." (He did that with cellulite/celluloid and roach/roast... and I'm glad he did!) Colin: "They've got... confusion gas! Oh la, monkey monkey noo." Ryan: "That's a lovely shirt." Of course the only antidote is blue shoes. "There's enough to cure the world!" And then Ryan looking thru the tabloid at the checkout: "Oh look. Drew Carey's on a potato diet." Wonderfully silly game.

SFAH - 'Bad times to use the atheletic butt-slap.' My favorite was Chip's "How are the hemorrhoids?" Then 'Topics of discussion that always ruin dinner parties.' Of course I liked Colin's best, although he stumbled a bit when he started, but once again Drew refused to buzz him. Colin went on and on, even saying, "I didn't know HOW I was going to get out of that..." and Ryan kindly pulled him offstage. Is Drew doing this as a childish prank, letting the joke go on too long, OR does he think the longer the joke goes on, the better it's gonna be? I've always thought the former.

More SFAH - 'What WL cast members ask Santa to bring them.' Ryan: "Please, Santa, just a pair of brown shoes." 'Things a waitress says that can be misconstrued as sexual.' Afterwards when Drew mentioned the obvious one about cream in your coffee, what was it that Ryan said that was censored? I guessed it was, "F*** me."

GH - Drew asked for reasons you move away from home, and someone shouts out, "Pregnant!" Huh? I mean, I know that can be true, but it seemed a little odd. Oh well. Good interplay betw C & R, as usual. I loved when Ryan asked what Colin thought of when he heard... and Ryan did a little Elvis impression. Colin: "Ohhhh. Cold toilet seats." LOL! Y'know, it's true! But the second song was the best: Kiss doing "Ooooo. Placenta." Gross, but funny lyrics. And Chip sure did look evil, didn't he?

Props - Funny when Wayne did the Baby Jessica bit, got boo'ed, and Colin wisely stepped aside like "I had nothing to do with THAT."

Finally, in the credits, what was the story behind turkeys in bikinis? Obviously this referred to something that didn't air. But even though I didn't know where this came from, it was very funny seeing and hearing the guys strut around, gobbling like turkeys.

Two great shows!
