In this very special episode: Because God has it out for Merrill (or at least that was his theory last week) and Hurricane Irene caused a delay in production scheduling, the Idiots decide to do a new show this week as well. Welcome to Idiot Boxers 3.0, or as we like to call it: Idiot Boxers Season Three. They restructure the show to streamline the reviews and have more chit chat (which is code for “Kevin berating Merrill”). They pay their respect to the victims of 9/11, then they celebrate Kevin’s 40th birthday. As the summer series all wrap up, the Idiots prep for a new season of television. Then Kevin breaks Merrill’s heart by declaring his love of Community.
