Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Season 3 ends as Charlie inadvertently puts Paddy’s up as the grand prize in a dance marathon. The gang must then win the competition to keep the bar.

Our Take

A strong season finale that trades the usual scheme-of-the-week structure for one sustained set piece, and it mostly pays off. Charlie and Dee’s dance sequences are the highlights, while Frank’s bits feel a bit recycled. The escalating desperation of the gang works better than the actual choreography jokes, which run thin toward the end. Worth watching, even if it’s not the season’s best.
