- For an all-Black 2023 cast, Kevin Hart is rejected; Jay Pharoah and Jerrod Carmichael are considered, with Nicole Beharie as a wife option.
- A gender-swapped version puts Regina Hall in Clark’s role and Sterling K.Brown in Ellen’s, with Grown-ish performers suggested for the children.
- A Carmichael-led gay-couple version remains acceptable but is considered more difficult.
- J.B.Smoove is proposed as Cousin Eddie, drawing on his similar function in Curb Your Enthusiasm.

- Jerrod Carmichael is ruled ineligible because he is in the movie.
- Barinholtz's reaction to his ex-wife having been with a huge-dicked guy, and the stretched-shirt line, kill.
- Barinholtz is also shouted out for Eastbound & Down; he should have been in What's Aged the Best.
- Lisa Kudrow is a nominee, and Hannibal Buress as the cop is mentioned.
- Mantzoukas is nominated by an admittedly biased participant: the 'your baby has HIV' delivery and Byrne's reaction get a laugh every time.
- Randall Park gets love for the telecommunications-company scene.
- Asked who wins, the picks are Mantzoukas and Lisa Kudrow, and Mantzoukas wins the day; Kudrow is praised for playing Phoebe as a dean.
