Dale Gribble: Looks like the aliens finally got Hank. At least they had the decency to put his pajamas back on. Not like with me.
Featured review
Corruption in recovery *mild spoilers*
I currently live in sober living myself and a haven't drank or used for nearly 18 months. Typically, I roll my eyes whenever recovery is portrayed in media since more often than not it typically relies more on stereotypes, usually portraying recovery and AA as a pseudo cult. The fact I personally love this show where the four guys regularly drink in the alley hopefully debunks some of the myths
While this episode is a bit mild in that no one is a drug addict and felon, it's pretty much spot on everywhere else.
The fact is: Alcoholics and Addicts certainly have a tendency to blame everyone but themselves for their lives (which is primarily the goal of the 12 steps to change), this also makes us a perfect target for exploitation. I.e. These guys are having their funds literally stolen from them but since they're not exactly credible people, who would believe it? The natural reaction would be to assume they're just playing the "blame game".
I applaud KOTH for bringing this mostly realistic portrayal of recovery and sober living. However, I would have preferred Draper to end up in jail for fraud since he will likely revert back at some time since he avoided punishment already. Sadly, it is accurate for 2005 Texas. Not as much today but still exists.
(I rated a 10 but feel it's more an 8.5. It's certainly better than a 7.3)
