It really is stunning to see the different ways in which people watch this show. This was easily the worst episode of the season so far, and even more disappointing given the previous episode was so outstanding.

It seems like so many want to watch this as if it was a soap opera. This show works best when characters are developed, such as we saw in the previous episode. This show has been stagnant since season 1. Most episodes (like this one) are simply moving characters around as if they were furniture (not unlike the last several seasons of Shameless). I felt like I was a fly on the wall to view how mundane life can be. You get a few hacky comments by Ted, a few grunts by Roy... rinse, repeat. At its worst, the show feels like it was written by an AI bot that had been fed season 1 and was asked to write a new season.

Don't take my word for it, they knew that the writing is weak. That's why a music bed permeated the entire episode.
