The League on FX

terpkristin · 11-05-2010, 06:48 PM

Anybody watch it?

I recently got into it. This week's episode reminded me of some of the antics here at FOFC.

Just caught up with the start of season 3. Can't believe some of the stuff that they get away with on this show. Was interesting that Seth Rogen showed up as a porno director.

RainMaker · 10-19-2011, 07:59 PM

I saw a couple episodes and it was really good. Hoping they add Season 2 to Netflix soon.

PilotMan · 10-19-2011, 09:03 PM

I loved the first two seasons. I caught the second season on Hulu. No idea if the third will be on there.

terpkristin · 10-21-2011, 06:12 PM

All three episodes this season have surprised me. They've all been rather full of what I call "boy" humor, which normally I can't stand, but man have I enjoyed them.

stevew · 10-09-2012, 03:41 PM

Season 3 is now on Netflix, and Season 4 starts on Thursday(I Think)

Glengoyne · 10-09-2012, 04:46 PM

Cool, one more thing to do while I'm not playing Xcom.

DanGarion · 10-09-2012, 06:35 PM

Taco Corp is ready for Season 4! PASSWORD IS TACO!

chinaski · 10-09-2012, 07:04 PM

cant wait!

chinaski · 10-09-2012, 07:05 PM

the episode where taco dresses up as mr mcgibblets and fake robs the house, slays me every time.

I'm been watching Jon Lajoie on YouTube lately to cure my The League withdrawal.

(Being Jon Lajoie videos they are probably NSFW)

That's one of my favorites, too.

I didn't like all of them last season but the end was a gem, too.

Chief Rum · 10-09-2012, 07:40 PM

My brother love The League and has been trying to get me to watch (I'm not a big TV watcher). I never knew Jon Lajoie was on it. That dude's funny. My GF and I are always cracking up about one of his rather more explicit songs about a certain part of a man's anatomy.

One more reason for me to watch, I guess.

stevew · 10-09-2012, 07:43 PM

I love how everyone hates the kid and even the parents recognize that she sucks.

He gets to do songs on The League too.

stevew · 11-30-2012, 03:21 AM

While I have thought this season isn't particularly strong, this episode with JB Smoove and the racist piano was excellent.

A-Husker-4-Life · 11-30-2012, 08:41 AM

Murder Boners, that's all..

This season seems to have lost it's way just a bit. Where's the football? It's gone. Who is in first? Where's the competition? What controversies are there?

Season 3 to me was easily the best. So far only so-so.

stevew · 11-30-2012, 09:18 PM

I'm not sure if it's a shooting schedule thing...maybe they shoot the football oriented ones closer to air date.

terpkristin · 12-08-2012, 12:46 PM

I actually thought this week's episode was pretty good, aside from the Lucha stuff at the end. I also didn't realize that the guy playing the doctor was the same guy who plays Kripke on Big Bang Theory...I don't think I've paid attention to him anywhere else. Weird to see him without a speech impediment.

rowech · 12-08-2012, 01:28 PM

There were two episodes this week.

Thanks, hadn't caught that, I'd only downloaded the friend off/Dr. Taco episode. I thought it was much better than most episodes this year.

stevew · 12-21-2012, 12:47 PM

This year was just kind of there. I'm not sure many episodes were that good. I hated that they really moved away from integrating football.

MizzouRah · 04-21-2013, 11:43 AM

I just bought the first season as a neighbor told me about the series.. I'm really late to this one.

First episode was great, laughed until I cried.

fantom1979 · 04-22-2013, 05:50 AM

Keep watching, there are some classics

PilotMan · 09-25-2013, 08:39 PM

Just finished season 3 on Netflix a few days ago. It might be the best season so far. If not a big step from 2. It just keeps popping one liners after one liners. It might be my favorite comedy on TV right now.

DanGarion · 09-26-2013, 08:52 AM

Shouldn't this title be edited?

rowech · 09-26-2013, 07:37 PM

Last night's episode might symbolize the end of this show. That was just dumb.

Yes it was, but hasn't the show been pretty dumb since the last season?

RainMaker · 09-28-2013, 01:45 AM

No, I mean it gets outrageous and stuff, but it was still grounded in some guys in the suburbs of Chicago going through life and a fantasy league. And the ludicrous characters like Dirty Randy and Rafi are usually given in small dosages.

This didn't even feel like an episode of The League so I'm not going to be too critical of it. Hoping it was just a blow off episode they decided to hand to those guys to do what they want and then things get back to normal next week.

terpkristin · 09-04-2014, 08:49 PM

Last night's episode was a return to the fine form I expected. Great blend of awkward and funny.

Sitting Shiva...

MizzouRah · 09-04-2014, 09:28 PM

I'm still watching via Netflix, but taping the new ones.

Matthean · 09-04-2014, 11:32 PM

The last season just hit Netflix so I started to go through that. I still enjoy it.

stevew · 09-05-2014, 02:37 PM

Supposedly there's another Ravi and Dirty Randy episode this season for people to go crazy about. I love both of them.

terpkristin · 09-05-2014, 07:06 PM

I thought season 4 and some of 5 edged on the "more awkward uncomfortable than funny uncomfortable" side, so glad to see the first episode of season 6 was more balanced.

/tk

Alan T · 09-05-2014, 07:33 PM

I agree with tk. I liked the first episode of this season better than the last two seasons.

RainMaker · 09-05-2014, 07:35 PM

I liked the first episode too.

sabotai · 09-06-2014, 09:56 PM

Just started watching this a few days ago am into season 2 now. Wish I had started watching this sooner, this show is fucking great.

stevew · 09-24-2014, 10:36 PM

A Rafi and Dirty Randy episode is the best birthday present I could ask for.
