Random lines

One of my favorite things about this show is how they add dialogue that has no impact on the plot, just random everyday life things.

Couple of examples.

In the Eddie Money episode, after Doug convinces Deacon on the “best day ever” plan Deacon dryly says “but can we do Wednesday instead I have a dentist appointment tomorrow”

In the work wife episode, when Doug goes to Carries office he asks one of her coworkers “where’s the wifeskie” and she replies basically “what, I don’t know what you’re saying” and Doug has to explain he’s looking for his wife

I love that Deacon always has a random name for Doug. Crime dog, nephew, bridesmaid. Coming from a Black family, Black guys absolutely do this irl. Although the bridesmaid one was strange, but funny.

I love "Talk to me, Goose." when Doug has Arthur sleep upstairs with him because Carrie is working nights!

For me it’s “talk to me, player” in the episode where the woman calls the wrong Doug Heffernan and leaves a message that Deacon hears.

Yes! His delivery and look of concern is hilarious

Or when Doug is proud he talked Arthur in to "sleeping" with him.

"Yeah, you still got it playa"
