Episode five has been the best episode of the season which is sad because it was simply below mediocre.
Richard Lewis was in this episode and the show paid tribute to him with a picture card before the episode began which had his name, birth year and 2024.
Rest in peace, Mr. Lewis.
The same issues crop up in this episode however some of the 'CYE' comedic comedy shines brightly. Larry's new lawyer (Sean Hayes) offered some new energy and genuine laughs. Vince Vaughn's new girlfriend stole a few scenes of her own (especially when she puts her hand to her mouth- not much off a spoiler but you will know it when you see it). The lawyer's husband also was a refreshing character with some good lines.
Job Smoove's character overstayed his welcome 3 seasons ago... Trying to crowbar him in bad been a major mistake. He's not funny anymore.
The Tracey Ullman character can go also- nothing funny about her. 'CYA' could drop both characters (Larry takes them on a trip and they fall into a volcano - problem solved). Keep the new characters and finish off the season.
