#Penny happy endings movie
In a nice bit of directing, Alex and Brad's movie has similar beats to the real-life interaction with Penny and Dave. His completely reasonable plan is to bring Penny's therapist and crash Penny's date with Rick. Clearly Dave doesn't have any married friends.

Penny's thrilled with the prospect of a therapist stalker, but Dave is concerned that his shrink is gonna spill all his secrets to one of his best friends. It only becomes weird for Dave once therapist Rick Rickman (which Alex points out could only be worse if he was named Dick Dickman) takes an interest in Penny and begins using his sessions with Dave as Penny research time. If you needed any more reason why "Happy Endings" is the most hilariously risque sitcom on network TV, that scene is it in a nutshell. Cut to Penny showing her shrink where a guy touched her and then where she wanted him to touch her. Penny reassures him there's nothing wrong with that, as she still sees her childhood therapist. They could make for good series-long jokes, but the writers have to take care to not have Max and Jane face off more than once a season and risk it becoming the tired, predictable fashion of having the two interact.ĭave's been holding out on the gang with a little secret. It's one of those silly sitcom subplots that seems like a bit of a stretch to happen in real life, but Max and Jane make for good competitive foils, so these competitions are fun.

And when the firefighters arrive and ask where's the fire, Max and Jane hit the only appropriate line "The fire is in our pants." Gotta assume doing that in real life would lead to a cold jail cell and big-time fine, but TV world works differently, I suppose…

In this case, that means calling in a fire so they can be checked out by firefighters, who resemble the kind shown as strippers, rather than the ones you'd normally see on the news. Jane's choice for Max's attire is an all-white get-up complete with fuzzy Kangol hat that she describes as " Jamiroquai just before Labor Day," while Jane is forced to rock what Max calls "Carol Brady right before she gets arrested for molesting Bobby." Realizing they're too good at competing, the two decide the only way either will win is if they raise the stakes. Not looking at "How I Met Your Mother's" Barney Stinson at all.
#Penny happy endings series
"The Shrink, the Dare, Her Date and Her Brother," isn't this season's most quotable or memorable, but it explores some fresher pairings and dynamics that will serve the series well in the long run instead of just milking what works until it's no longer funny. And that brings us to this week's episode. But as a good friend, you're there to help your friends pick up the pieces and convince them that just as with every romantic comedy, in the end, everyone has a happy ending. And while you're no eHarmony or, you clearly know an ill-fated pairing when you see it.

But a friend is convinced that you've hidden some rare gem who is clearly the person he was destined to be with all along if only you'd acted sooner, and he's confident that this relationship will work. From the onset of this soon-to-be disaster featuring two of your friends, you're keenly aware that nothing good will come of this. Nothing puts as much strain on a friendship as witnessing the friend hook-up, especially when you don't approve of the potential pairing.
