Yeah I consistently find myself appreciating that show more and more. One of my favorite themes is with the recurring characters. Consistently if they give in to the gang’s bullshit like Cricket their life gets worse and worse, but if like Carmen they don’t their life gets better every time you see them.

And each of the characters seems to understand that the others suck. Like, Mac calls out Dennis and Dee’s rape. Everyone in the gang acknowledges that Charlie is a stalker and that Mac is a hypocrite. It’s a group of terrible people who push away everyone else so they keep coming back to each other.

My favorite episode is definitely the musical. It seems like the one time that The Gang (or most of them) aren't trying to scheme and genuinely are doing their best. They just sabotage themselves because they're all too selfish and stupid to not, even when they are trying.
