High level comfort comedy that absolutely transported me back to middle school when just saying 'Tina you fat lard come get your dinner' in my head would send me to the moon laughing. And its not even the funniest part.


The Idaho Goodwill In The 80s vibe is overwhelmingly strong (like it sticks with you after it ends and makes you so happy you didn't go to high school there), and this time watching I just picked up on a lot more detail. They really got that creeping feeling of boredom correctly in the script. Also, since I have been watching a lot of older comedies lately I was half worried that the jokes wouldn't age well, but honestly most of the riskier plot points (Uncle Rico being an absolutely menacing creep or Lafonda in general) aged fine. I also forgot that Mac's mom is in this, she's such an icon. Happy I rewatched!
