Thoughts?

I thought it was funny.All day long I kept imagining Doug pole dancing while I was at work.I almost giggled out loud.But I held back I work with small kids and you really have to focus on them even though it's Nursery School and 4 year olds.

It was a pretty good episode. Leah was very funny trying to pole dance. I hate to even bring it up, but Leah still looks really out of shape, compared to what she used to look like. I knew she would never be able to climb that pole.

It was OK, not bad but not great.

They are making Remini earn her pay check [she did more in this episode than like...last season combined]. Carrie seemed kinda out of character throughout though, eh, I don't know.

Oh I thought Leah looked good. It was Kevin James' hairpiece that looked worse to me...

I thought it was very good and really funny. When Doug kicked off his shoes and got on the pole, my wife and I both fell out laughing so hard!!! I had to rewind that scene twice. When he was sliding down the pole, saying" I'm an angel, be an angel" I give that episode 9 outta 10!!!!! gold stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOVED IT! I still can't believe Doug got on that pole.

I'm brand new, but have been reading this board for along time. Love TKOQ, and just wanted to say hi!

I liked last night's show for one reason. It was the first time in 2 seasons, IMHO, that neither character did something underhanded or sneaky. They really seemed like they loved each other and wanted to make each other happy, The romance is back. The last two seasons they seemed more like roomates who really couldn't stand each other. Good episode last night (even though the last 5 minutes is the reason why I've still not deleted it from my Moxi dvr).

I loved it. Even though Leah still hasn't lost all of the weight, I thought she looked damn good. She looked better than she has in a year and a half. You don't see much physical comedy on this show (at least not involving Leah), so the pole scenes were great! I hope the episodes to follow are just as good.

Welcome to the board!!

J.R. · 09-20-2005, 12:49 PM

Thanks!

I think Leah looks fine. I always thought she was atractive, but looked much better with some meat on her bones (I'm a hips-and-behind man myself

) and looked at some of the heat she took last season becuase she was bigger. She was full-figured, and there are some of us men out there that like thick women.

Now, I don't want to restart the is-Leah-fat-or-not thread that went on, so I'll be quite and look at Leah trying to dance on that pole (no pun intended).

I think she looks fine, too. Once I saw how great she looked on Ellen last week, I knew she would look a lot better on the show again.

Yeah, that Leah thread got carried away. The board was pretty much divided there.

J.R. · 09-20-2005, 01:25 PM

BTW, why did Kevin's hair look so strange?

Storywriter · 09-20-2005, 03:00 PM

I thought Leah looked good too.You cannot get on a pole to dance without Training even if you are the thinnest Person out there today. It's hard from what I see and no I never pole danced but you just can tell.

Random info...

I actually saw this episode filmed live. I loved it. My favorite part was Carrie and Doug on the pole. The last scene with Kevin on the pole was shot only one time because Kevin had a bad shoulder. The warm up guy told us that scene was not rehearsed and that was the first time anyone had seen what he was going to do. It came out very funny. (It was my favorite part of the show.)

(I heard Kevin tell Leah to hit him when she had to punch him. It looked like she hit him hard.)

They cut out a very funny scene with Arthur on the couch sleeping. Doug tries to wake him up but he won't wake up so he pulls the couch down and pulls it back up and Arthur's not on it anymore. And then he sits down on it to watch tv.

I believe the director's wife was one of the pole dancers in the pole dancing class scene. She told us she was on "Oprah" talking about pole dancing and how it's become very popular in gyms.

It's awesome that you got to see that episode live! Thanks for all of the info on it. Too bad they cut the Arthur scene, it sounds like it would have been great.
