CBB 509 - "Kristen Schaal"

Post by TMBJon »

Kristen Schaal Wears Strawberry Colored Pants and a Multicolored Shirt
It's time to celebrate "Weird Al" Yankovic's birthday, but a certain family member isn't very happy about it. Kristen Schaal shows off her real voice, and Paul Rust stops by to debut his "New No Nos".
This is one of the most Al-centric episodes of the season. If you're only watching for Al and you hate the rest of the show, definitely tune in for this one!
Also featuring Kristen Schaal of "Tacky" fame!

Question - was this actually filmed on October 23rd or was this a just-for-fun thing? I would think it's most likely not as he'd probably want to spend some time with Suzanne and Nina (mind, did we ever forget Al was married and had a kid?) but just out of curiosity.

No, not at all. It was filmed sometime in February. And when we did the episode about Scott's birthday it was not filmed or aired on July 2.
Just like the fact that within the CBB universe Al is not married, his real life birthday is irrelevant to this fictional TV show.

I'll tell the writers to add "Al marries Heds" into the season 6 plotline ideas.

No, that should be "Al marries mysterious 12 year old fan girl he picked up from a fan forum"
More descriptive and fun.
Also, make sure the fangirl tries to get Haley and Scott in bed with her and Al |)

Okay, I definitely see why this is Al's favorite episode of the season. It was amazingly funny, and you could just tell he was having so much fun as Weird Sal.

Pity, pity...
I loved the single, long tracking shot at the opening
I'm a nice guy, who would want to murder me?
As true as the detectives on the Home Box Office Network :lol:
She has a name that contains every vowel, except for O and U
I've always preferred raisins to grapes...
Loved Kristen being scared of Pharrell seeking revenge for Tacky
Kristen's vision was fantastic, as was her story about why she left the flock
"Please."
Loved the scene with "Sal" and Matt Walsh. The New Yorker cartoons bit especially.
We couldn't hear you because you turned slightly away from us.
Thanks, but I drove my own limo here.
Then the ending with Matt Walsh's evil twin sister was fantastic, too.

Amazing episode! :Y

I also liked the Matt Walsh/Weird Sal scenes as well as how Al chose to resolve his brotherly conflict right before entering the party.
