Very funny episode last night.

In addition to the points already made, Jared grilling Dinesh while Gilfoyle is going around nailing down items in the apartment.

Yang just leaving the car after hearing it was peed in.

Yang's reply to Richard after Richard said "you aren't creating anything. You're just stealing other ideas."

Disappointed there hasn't been a lot of outcry about (mis)perceived bias against Christians in this episode.

why would there be outcry?

it was funny.

very self referential and funny sarcastic nod to the hypocritical treatment of christians. Internet for all - gay,vegan, violent, whatever, but not christians, etc..... the way the entire staff and their investors reacted to his outing of the christian was funny.

Damn, TJ. I was just watching BIg Hero 6 with my kiddo and enjoying Miller's voice acting in that one. Shame he's a psycho.

I get that it was and why it was funny.

I am just used to the Pearl clutchers of the wolrd getting worked up when judge or matt and Trey make a joke using Christianity as the device but certainly not the target of the joke

Yeah, why would there be an outcry? I'm actually surprised HBO (not Mike Judge) would let that get out there because it was a jab at some liberals and their attitude toward Christianity, not Christians themselves, heavy with irony that gay is more acceptable than Christian.

oh so you meant outcry elsewhere... ok confused me.

i don't think this show gets that much publicity really.... it's understood that it is parody (i hope).

Was the towing company legitimate?

Would be awesome if their site had "Official tow company of Pied Piper" on it.

I would think most of the people that actually like this show (and get it) can see the punchline in the Christianity joke.

Ok.... Jared was killing it tonight ....so many lines.

but the whole outing the Christian thing and the hypocrisy of it all was just awesome. Loved it.

and maybe Jian-Yang is out for a while - thanks to the glorious return of BigHead and his ineptitude.

S5E4 just moved into my #2 spot of all time, behind "Optimal tip to tip Efficiency."


so many great moments already mentioned but Gilfoyle hitting everything with the nail gun was "nails".

I loved that part of the mole's punishment was having to still go to Battle Bots with Dinesh, and go to Dave & Buster's with him as well.

Christians got jabbed too. The Hooli employees breaking down Gavins words the way people do scriptre was the funniest and most origional part of the episode for me.

Still didnt really laugh this week. Jin Yang is one of the few characters that really makes me laugh so I hope hes not gone long.

Given the entire show is making fun of the silliness of the tech world, I was actually impressed that they went after their desire to seem so inclusive while intolerant of Christianity.

The car bit with Jian Yang probably had me laughing the hardest.

Richard: So you're still in that car?
Jian Yang: Aviato car smells like a dead pig.
Richard: You know Russ Hanneman peed in that one?

Jian Yang walks off, leaves Corvette parked across two electrical vehicle parking spots.

Which led directly to Jared having it towed, finding out is was registered to BigHead and then to BigHead where he found out the trust or partnership was never dissolved......

love the little things

My biggest laugh the whole episode was Jin Yang calling Richard right in front of him. Just the visual of Jin Yang pulling out his cell was so great, and Richard's face of total exhaustion with it.

Didn't enjoy Dinesh, though. It seemed like he was a little too willing to be the mole's punishment. Seemed out of character for him to understand what a beating he is.

I agree with this. I don't think it would have been hard to make a slow transition that was in character, but for him to suddenly be like "I know I suck, but you have no choice" seemed out of left field.

I thought there was a little transition and it worked ok, but I get what you are saying too.

Initially he was incredulous that he could have been used by the mole -until the mole admitted it.

then he initially was punishing the guy by saying he did not get to go with him to Battle Bots.

and then we he came back he had that same sort of naivety about all the people who could not go and why they could not hang out with him either (all bogus reasons).

but he did suddenly seem to realize making the mole guy go was a punishment itself now.

OMG......

Jian Yang was the chinese guy in Patriot's Day. I did not recognize him when I first saw it 2+ years ago. He was such a bit part on SV then I think..... but I was just watching it on cable and I exclaimed "that's jian Yang" when I saw him. lol.

when the Tsarnaev brothers carjack a SUV and kidnap a chinese guy from Cambridge for like 90 minutes it was Jian Yang. Basically the same accent he uses on SV (which is not his normal speaking voice).
