I’m watching The Gang Goes to the Jersey Shore. This episode is great! The bums under the boardwalk were unexpected.

I literally couldn’t stop laughing the first time I saw Frank emerge from the couch in the Xmas episode. My wife thought I was having a medical event.

Love this show. Even the lousy episodes are still tolerable and when it’s on, it’s spot on. I gotta agree with the others that the best character is [Charlie](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0hOfT5aQr8). 🙂

Whenever Frank is mentioned, I can’t help but think about him and his skinny jeans in 'The Gang Reignites the Rivalry." Hilarious!

I didn’t catch it til Netflix too.

For me, any ep with the lawyer is hilarious. Same with the milk-drinking weird brothers who wear robes and have the unibrow sister.

The Jersey shore ep though is the finest. Maybe with the birds of prey/wrestling ep.

I don’t think so. His Jersey Films company produces a lot of movie and some TV but I don’t think he has anything to do with this other than acting.

Its a show I like everytime I catch it but I don’t see it that often. I really have to watch the whole thing.

Watched that one again last night. Drunk Dee trying to save the kid by singing “Runaway Train” while touching his face 😛

I’m rewatching the Grand Canyon episode because of this thread. I love the part were Mac gets Charlie a pear. The way they did the scene was great.

And everybody they encounter they basicly ruin. Horrible, evil, wonderful, awful great show that I can’t stop watching! 😃
