Tonight at 9p on Fox, today is not going to be a good day for the employees of Animal Control.
The episode starts off with Emily (Vella Lovell) seeing Shred (Michael Rowland) walking into the office with his girlfriend, who is visiting him. Just when she thought she had a chance with him, in comes his girlfriend. The lucky lady came with Shred to work so that she can invite everyone over for dinner to get to know them.
Before we get to that point, Frank (Joel McHale) is excited about Shred’s 10-week review as a probie. Frank being Frank gives him a bad one because he doesn’t want to have a partner.
As much as Frank doesn’t want a partner, he is going to need Shred when they have to go bring in a vicious dog that is so scary Seattle PD won’t go inside the house to capture him. So how will they get the hellhound under control?
They are not the only ones who have a bad day with an animal. Victoria (Grace Palmer) and Patel (Ravi V. Patel) have to dispose of a dead smelly sturgeon. They don’t want to deal with it, so they push it over to the side of Fish and Wildlife. The duo thinks they are in the clear until Fish and Wildlife decide to get their revenge on them. And it doesn’t stop there. You have to see what happens to this dead fish.
After a day like that, it will be nice to have a relaxing dinner with friends. What could go wrong? You just have to tune in to see.
That and to watch the best new comedy of the season. If you are not watching, then you are missing out on lots of laughs. And who doesn’t need to laugh on a Thursday?
On a past episode of Animal Control, Victoria (Grace Palmer) pranked Frank (Joel McHale) and made him think he had a shot with the Hot Vet. Instead, he wound up hooking up with someone else in the office that everyone hates.
Well, tonight at 9p, it is time for Frank to get his revenge on Victoria. He decides to put her apartment on the market, and he even got a realtor to show it while she was out.
Needless to say, she is not happy about it and swears revenge on him. He doesn’t know how or when, but it is going to happen.
Frank’s partner Shred (Michael Rowland), has some ideas about Frank and Victoria. He thinks that they use their prank war to flirt with each other. And Frank wants someone to knock some sense into him.
Someone will. That is because they go to call about a loud peacock. When they get there, some neighbors get into a fight with their neighbor over his noisy peacock, and one of them winds up hitting Shred in the head with a bag of melons.
Well, it looks like Shred probably got a concussion over that, so Emily (Vella Lovell) insists that someone watch him. Patel (Ravi V. Patel) volunteers to do it to get away from his family. Since Emily doesn’t trust him with Shred, she decides to stop over and check on them both.
While they are preoccupied with that, Frank and Victoria are on a stakeout to record the peacock making noise for three minutes straight. What is going to happen when the two of them are alone in a van all night?
I can’t tell you that. What I can tell you is that it is the best sitcom that Fox has produced in a really long time. We all need to laugh, and this show delivers that! Has Joel McHale ever done anything that isn’t funny?
Ever since Animal Control debuted, we have been used to Frank (Joel McHale) being teamed up with Shred (Michael Rowland), Amit (Ravi V. Patel) working with Victoria (Grace Palmer), and their boss Emily (Vella Lovell) staying in the office.
However, tonight at 9p, the hysterical Fox sitcom changes things up. That is because Frank throws Shred out of the van for a very good reason. But when he gets back to the office, Emily makes him go out with Amit to catch a skunk. Will their time stink together?
Do you know whose time isn’t going to stink? Victoria’s time because the hot vet (Alvina August) asks her to help her deliver a llama’s baby! Finally, Victoria gets some alone with the hot vet. Maybe she can beat Frank in their bet to see who can get her to go out with them. Will the hot vet choose her over Frank? Emily puts a wrench in her plan when she shows up unexpectantly.
The only reason why Emily had time to do that is because Shred opts to run her errand for her. When he gets there, Templeton beats him to the location, and the two men are going to have to fight over what they need. Who will win?
We win because we get to watch this show every Thursday and laugh until it hurts! Even though they changed up the work family dynamic, they still delivered an episode with a lot of heart! So, as I have been saying since the premiere, tune in for the animals and stay for a show that is equal amounts of heart and laughs!
Animal Control goes Animal House tonight at 9p on Fox! So be prepared to laugh until it hurts!
Frank (Joel McHale) and Shred (Michael Rowland) are assigned to a frat house because they have to get a cow out of their living room. You would think that Frank would be all into it, but he is mad at the college students for doing this again. However, their uptight rival, Fetterman (Gerry Dee), is all for partying with them because he is a legacy.
Now Shred is stuck in the middle, and he has other things going on. His long-distance girlfriend wants him to go visit her again, but he thinks she should come to him. So he asks Frank, who sucks at relationships, for advice. What could go wrong?
Then there are Amit (Ravi V. Patel) and Victoria (Grace Palmer), and they have to go to Church to save a raccoon from being saved. It is there that Amit learns something about his partner that he can’t handle. Even you will be shocked by what she tells him!
Finally, there is Emily, she asks them to write up their intention statements, and they didn’t do it. So she asks her predecessor Rick (Kevin Bigley), how she can get her employees to listen to her. Let’s just say they won’t mess with her again.
Since this is a sitcom, you know it is going to make you laugh. What you don’t know about it is that there is a lot of heart that comes with it too. They are a supportive family who looks out for one another. They might be dysfunctional. But what family isn’t?
So tune in for a show that will leave you feeling all warm and tingly inside, just like when you see a kitten or puppy. However, those animals are rarely on Animal Control. But they had rabbits. They were just psycho rabbits who tried to kill them. But it wasn’t the rabbits’ fault because they were on drugs! See, now you want to watch it!
Joel McHale is a guest on The Jennifer Hudson Show today, and he brought some friends with him. As in the ones that are the first word in the title of his new Fox sitcom Animal Control.
However, he didn’t bring any cute ones like cats or dogs. Instead, he brought an anaconda and an iguana. Well, as soon as Hudson saw the 12′ snake, she ran faster than you can sing “my anaconda don’t.”
But the anaconda do with McHale. That is because the reptile wrapped his tail around the actor’s leg and gave him a second penis.
And since the snake has comedic timing like the human tree he was attached to, he knew when to shake his tail at all the right times.
So much so, I am not sure that was safe for daytime TV. Especially when the host touched his anaconda…
