I wished I had watched them all in order. But I just started watching in random order and it's still great. but, there are sometimes very subtle call backs to previous episodes that I didn't get/understand until after I had seen them all and watched them a few times.
Example;
Thundergun Express.
Dennis is in the car listening to all the audio tapes he's made of all the women he's brought back to his room. At the beginning of the episode, Mac implies that Dennis takes way to long to seduce his women. Dennis, of course, disagrees. So he's listening and evaluating his tapes. On one tape, you can hear Mac interrupt the process on tape, and while Dennis is the car he says frustratingly "....well, now I just have to demonstrate my value again..." - indicating that in this particular scenario, that is why it was taking so long to seduce her because he had to start the system all over from the beginning.
this is in reference to the "D" in the D.E.N.N.I.S. system - "Demonstrate Value". and I think that episode was earlier in the series by quite a bit.
The first time I watched the Thundergun episode, that little diddy slipped right past me.
not to mention, watching them in order, you get to see the gradual evolution of Dennis as he becomes more and more of a sociopath; and Mac, becomes more and more gay and more and more in denial.
watching in order, you get to see the gradual destruction of Cricket and you know how he got all of his wounds / got so messed up. [Reply]

I've just been randomly checking them out from Vicelands on-demand menu, not even sure if their order is correct... but I've literally never watched one where I didnt lol multiple times
The other one I watched after 'Dennis System' was, 'the Gang Wrestles for the Troops' or something like that, with guest star Rowdy Roddy... its all just so absurd, Franks wrasslin character 'The Garbageman' ends up slitting Crickets throat with a sharp edged trash can... the crowd goes wild, the end :-) [Reply]

They're so much better when you watch them in order. [Reply]

That’s a great one.
Ben The Soldier and they gift him some Jorts. Artemis and Dee as Desert Rose. The Maniac, wrestling for like $25, and they find a bucket of walnuts in his car. Cricket “catches an edge” of the trash can (one of crickets many wounds). The Birds of Prey.
Same here,...I’ve probably seen them all a few times. I always have about 30 episodes in my dvr. I just watched Franks Little Darlings tonight. :-).
Mac still in the process of “cultivating mass” by lugging around a trash bag full of Mexican food. Mac and Dennis go to the doctor and Mac is diagnosed with diabetes....but his pronunciation of the word is great. Frank gets a mortician to do his makeup to cover up his broken nose. ........just so awesome. [Reply]

Viceland has started season 1, they seem to be in order. I know Mondays are 5 episodes, not sure if its on any other days. [Reply]

Rickety is David Hornsby, son of Bruce Hornsby
And married to her
Seems like everyone on that show has a habit of marrying well. Even DeVito didn't do too bad [for him]. Though it's weird those two decided to go back out on the prowl after all these years.

That makes sense, particularly hearing everyone talk about ho much the characters change as time goes on

Its definitely up there for me, the way Dee backs out on the soldier when she sees him in a wheelchair, then hires the fat skank to be the 'rose lady'... they're all such schemers, God love' em [Reply]

Thought they were cousins, or something like that. [Reply]
