I agree with you on the Becca thing...did I miss something? Why's she so pi$$ed at him? I could have missed something.
The other stuff you mentioned, while disturbing, is one of the reasons I watch the show, to see what they'll do next, much in the way that I was addicted to Nip/Tuck in the first couple of seasons. Mangina, seriously???
I thought Runkle jumping on the date's back as he's mid-faker@pe-coitus with Runkle's ex was floor-rolling funny. I feel pretty sorry for Runkle.
And Kathleen Turner....man, what a great scene!!! Uncomfortable? Hell yes, but hysterical!
I don't take the show too seriously....you can't....and while the first episode this season didn't have quite the draw as last seasons' episodes...this last episode I thought was great. Just my

though!
Can't wait 'til Sunday!
