[@b3rz3rk3r9]

I'm not a big fan of it. It seemed like it was good, I liked the loose and fun comedy; but the recurring joke of everyone screaming "MY," "YOUR," or "HIS LEG!" when they were referring to Fred's leg or their own leg got pretty annoying.

[@b3rz3rk3r9]

Oh thanks for the heart, Jay

[@Luis-yh9xd]

Starman Gaming I have to agree with you. When I saw the episode it felt like the writers were just cash grabbing the joke to attract the fans from seasons 1-3

The joke was funnier when it was just a background gag.

[@b3rz3rk3r9]

@@GeteMachine It actually would've worked if it were a gag in the opening scene, showing all the times Fred broke and destroyed his leg. I'm just weary of it because of the fact that the majority of it is undeserved, as it was just used in talking about legs. Not broken, sprained, strained, twisted or disintegrated; just in general.

This is 1 out of 2 of the modern episodes, 2015 and on that are definitely for original fans like me. It brings such a thing I was curious about a kid with the my leg part and they made it popularized before it was just a think repeated in crash scenes. Of course this episode still doesn't follow my inner thoughts but it is still better than all modern episodes to me. Sometimes with my new thinking it makes me struggle to understand if I like some of the things of my childhood because most go against the thoughts but memories are memories. That's why I believe this episode is 1 out of 2 above average episodes especially for newer ones
