Season 6 Episode 8: The N Word

Larry tries to do Auntie Rae a favor, but ends up offending her instead. Meanwhile, Jeff’s stay at the hospital to get a “snore job” opens up a new opportunity for Larry, who takes full advantage of it in Episode 58: “The N Word.”

Update: I really enjoyed this episode. What I most liked about it was the way the episode was constructed. One thing about the season so far that I’d noticed, was that while most episodes remained very, very funny, the brilliant way that Larry crafts and interwieves different ideas through his episodic storylines was not so evident. This episode put to bed any fears that Larry had lost this aspect of his genius. The way he interwove his erectile problems, bald discrimination, the use of “N word, and his dating a doctor was brilliant and reminded me of episodes like season 2′s The Doll. Admittedly, the ending was a little weak but the episode as a whole was just hilarious. I’m also eagerly awaitng this week’s The Psychiatrist guest-starring Steve Coogan.
