Spiraling
Calicodreamin30 April 2022
One of the lesser episodes this season, the storylines had no depth and the jokes didn't land as often. The Brianna arc feels like filler as the show winds down.

Bad Comedy
Hitchcoc26 June 2022
But has always been my least favorite character. His lack of social graces come to the fore in this episode. He thinks he's funny and could do standup comedy. At a dinner with Cody's in laws to be, he reveals ugly truths and nearly nixes the wedding plans. His fixations and self centered crap are tiresome and this episode is not funny.

Grace and Frankie -- From Diamonds to Dross

Warning: Spoilers
This has to be one of the dumbest episodes yet. I felt so annoyed by the stupidity and ridiculous and completely unrealistic behaviour of, especially, Frankie, Brianna and Bud, that I wondered why I was still watching it. And it's only because I'm determined to see Grace and Frankie to its sadly spiralling-downward end. What started as a clever and witty show is now a pale imitation of itself.

Horrifically unfunny lawyer Bud sees himself as a future comedy great and is so immature and insecure he obsesses about it at every turn. Apparently he has no clients and no work to do, which is just as well. Somehow he thinks it's funny to betray his brother by revealing and mocking Coyote's secrets at a family get-together with his brother's fiancee and her parents. Yeah, big laughs there. Not.

But why single out Bud? He's only one of the self-obsessed, unhinged ninnies on display here. Brianna needs serious psychiatric help and we've known for a long time that Frankie is out of control, acting before she thinks about the consequences and hurting people she supposedly cares about.

Grace and Frankie is loaded with narcissists completely lacking in self-awareness or thoughts for anyone but themselves. It is a very sad ending to what once was a very welcome and bright television event.

Bye bye, Grace and Frankie. Don't let the door hit your sorry asses on the way out.

What started out as a fun joyride has now turned into a descent into hell with this last season and a half... this episode continues to pile on absurdities on top of crap to the point that one really needs chemical assistance to even stand the story lines (I'm sober, unfortunately.) I just wish things had made more sense instead of constant cringeworthy crazy.
