    funny

    I laughed really hard a lot it was funny. Usually this show makes me chuckle a little and a few of the jokes are clever enough to earn a full laugh, but like the whole time i watched this one i laughed way too much and like deeply rooted laughs like santa claus hohohos so real. Always gets me because its well written WHAT i dont like the rich guy that offered ten million. The delivery of every jokes is so funny and real i will be quoting this forever so good its real funny when whats his name went up with the spotlight i laughed and then he wifed and especially jared and partner and stat safe.
