Excellent. A quick GIS confirms.
I thought the scratch & sniff was fine but nothing special (and the “new car smell” didn’t work for me at all), but I’m glad they followed through with Earl getting a job. I hope it doesn’t distract too much from the list, but it’ll be fun to see him in his new environment once in a while.
You’re right. I was thinking about the Dickie, not the Docker. I guess the pants reference in the show messed me up. 
shakes head sadly Always thinking about the Dickie.
I missed last week’s episode! Has Earl gone through his lottery money, or did he take the job just to scatch the “avoided growing up” off his list?
Yes.
Well, it’s part of growing up. Step one was finishing high school, which was last week’s episode, and getting a job was the second step. The last one is to get a place to live. Possibly that will be next week’s episode?
It came to a head when he was denied a credit card. Randy and the rest of the gang persuaded Earl to put himself on the List, to fix “not growing up.”
I recognized him as the one that asked Elaine out, which she declined, then didn’t remember it. He had excellent recall about other events, describing to her in vivid detail some obscure item, but couldn’t remember her. Drove Elaine nuts to the point where she then wanted to go out with him just so he’d remember her.
Strange, he seems much smaller now.
He was also Stenographer Fred on Science Court.
One of my favorite lines:
“I like the smell of bacon, too, but I don’t want to fornicate with it!”
He was the ND coach (Dan Devine) in the movie Rudy.
He tried to explain them all to the credit card lady, but in the end she had to put down “none” for education, employment, and residence.
THANK YOU!
I was sitting there watching the show with the craziest sense of deja vu, then when Charles Dutton gave his speech I was going crazy! I told my wife “Dammit I know I have heard that speech before!”
I loved the examples Earl gave to make the sale. “These triangular nuts make this almost impossible to steal. When you try to use a regular screwdriver it leaves a scar like this.” I know that is far from an exact quote, but it was funny. Also, the washer withstanding washing a neighbor’s kid brother in it every Saturday and it still kept working. “I’ll take it.”
Liked the part where Darnell falls out of the trailer right before Joy tells him she sold the porch. Then later you see them going in using the kid’s slide.
I too want a TV/Microwave/Computer. Do you think they sell them at Walmart?
I distinctly remember seeing a combo tv/microwave oven at Sears about fifteen years ago. (Granted, the TV was only about four inches in size, but at least two-thirds of that existed.)
Duplicate post. Please ignore.
Was anybody else reminded of the song “Money for Nothing”?
We gotta install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries.
We gotta move these refrigerators,
We gotta move these colour TV’s.
Okay, I was really waiting for someone else to bring this up, to hide my shame, but…
Joy taped her goodbye over an episode of “Yes Dear”. There is a snippet of it as Crabman goes to shut off the TV.
God bless the anonymity of the internet.
And of course, one of the Dockers (the big white guy) played a security guard on Yes, Dear.
