What I liked- Drake on acting: "You show up, say some lines, and then go home", Josh being repeatedly arrested because he looked so much like the Theater Thug, Drake being in the reenactment, the ending of the episode where they get the real theater thug but Josh is arrested again, Megan's ideas for possible disguises for Josh, etc.
Pretty good. It's not one of their best episodes but it does have a good plot and some strong humor, and as such, my final grade is going to be a solid B, I think is fair for this episode.moreless
Josh gets a part on a TV crime show where he plays the infamous "Theater Thug." Following his TV debut he becomes a public enemy as a case of mistaken identity gets out of hand.
