Yeah this was fantastic, the part where the woman in the crowd wanted Gina to look at her and she just stared her down killed me Only three episodes left this season...
"It’s such a classic Boyle trait not to recognize talent. My cousin Susan? Didn’t know she could sing until her late 40s"
I thought the Rosa storyline was the weakest, but still really funny, while Charles/Holt's scenes were hilarious. But they would be nothing without Nikolaj; Holt's response when he asks how Kevin is doing was hilarious.
Boyle killed it. Him sternly saying “I love you” and Nikolaj freaking out was maybe the hardest I’ve laughed this season
I always liked Gina but this was an awkward way to bring her back. She basically only interacted with Jake and there was nothing they said that actually played off their specific dynamic in the past, swap Jake out with any other character and the episode is the same Boyle's the man but Holt and Amy are consistently my favourites
I love Gina, but she is more a good punchline/color character like her presence in the office, which almost always killed me. I can't say I have ever cared much about heavy Gina plotted episodes.
This episode was too weird for me tbh. The writers really need to dial it back, this show just does not feel like B99 anymore. The bleeped swears are becoming old and forced, the characters are more flanderized than ever, and it just feels like a cartoon at this point. Also, that BM joke from Amy was pretty mehh
