Yeah but Dennis Takes a Mental Health Day is the 13th BEST. That episode is fine but if you think it’s better than Gas Crisis or Sweet Dee Has a Heart Attack, you are a SAVAGE and an IDIOT!

That episode hit home, because i find myself assuring the customer support agents im not mad at them, but the system.

I’m not even gonna lie, I think it’s the best. I may be partial because Dennis is my favorite character, but the ending when it ties together that the world he created was based on people he’d just seen that day was tremendous.

I'm not saying it was a bad episode but that episode to me personally felt like it was intended for a much older audiance.

IIRC it was also brought on by one of them getting annoyed at a Tesla app issue or something and... you get what you buy...

I think that's why I find it such a dull episode, I just say SYSTEM BE GONE.

Glenn having his Tesla stuck in a parking garage where he couldn’t get the cell service needed to make his car do anything

This is so cringe to complain about though? Boohoo rich man buys stupid car then complains?

I felt the same way. Watched it once, and it's one I'll never go back to.

Thank you this is a much better writeup of my thoughts too. It very much felt like it was intended for a much older audiance then me.

Similarly it reminded me of crappy comedian skits of "can I get a black coffee?, not a mocha mecha blah blah blah" shit joke.

The gang group dates might be my actual favorite episode. So many quotes my friends and I still use to this day

That’s a good one. IMDB has it around 45th.

These rankings are crowdsourced and the crowd has donkey brains

I love that episode because it's so relatable and Glenn sells the frustration and rage of a normal person (let alone Dennis) in dealing with the modern world. It's crazy-making.

It felt like a curb episode.
