Episode Summary & Review
Summary
The Gang takes the trend against drinking into their own hands. Dennis, Dee, and Frank look to recruit white collar suits for happy hour while Mac and Charlie seek to enlist blue collar factory workers so they can return the bar to the melting pot it once was.
Our Take
A solid class warfare episode that leans on the Gang’s worst instincts, which is exactly where the show still clicks. Mac and Charlie’s factory recruitment bit gets funnier the longer it goes, while Dennis’s happy hour scheme mostly coasts on Glenn Howertz’s smarm. Not a standout, but the barroom chaos in the back half earns it. Worth a watch if you’re still on board this season.
