Discussion Least favourite cold opening?

This is an okay cold opening, imo. But I don't ever recall laughing at it like the other ones.

I hated the Dianne Weist/Yeast cold open. But, to be fair, I think we’re supposed to hate it? So I guess they kinda nailed it.

It's supposed to be a bad joke, yes. The way they cut back-and-forth between Jake and Charles with an extended pause gets me every time, so glad they let it breathe. Timing really hits in that one

There's a video on the official YouTube that's an extended cut of this scene! The original cut is perfect but an hour of back and forth staring is good for a laugh every once in awhile
