Portlandia Episode 6: Last One!

Okay, so I'm not a sports fan whatsoever, so I wasn't thrilled to hear the last episode was called baseball. But it was fine, hilarious actually. The Mayor (Kyle McLaughlin) asked Carrie and Fred to put together a team (which he wants to call "the thinkers" so that's more up my alley.) So they ran tryouts like a casting call:



More of this throughout the episode, and the Mayor is always funny. Again, I loved the opening sketch a spoof of political commercials which claimed it was putting unemployed Portland residents to work finishing each others sentences. There was more from the Feminist Bookstore (yay!) and if you've ever wondered why photos of chefs always look so goofy, maybe this sketch has the answer.

But that was the last episode until season two. It would be great if the season is longer than six episodes next year. I'm looking forward to it!
