In the fourth episode of the third season of Comic Book Men, the episode lays heavy on the schmaltz, with lots of moments that show our favorite geeks also have pretty big hearts.

We know many of the folks on the show are married, but we rarely see a romantic or caring side of them. It’s usually jokes and smart ass comments. This episode it leans heavily in the other direction. The guys help purchase some toys to help fund a cool project for doctors, another for charity and another to help a husband pay for a date and treat his wife well. It’s all very cute and shows the family and charitable side of it all.

But, with all of that, there’s also the usual smart ass jokes and fun debates that have you thinking. No matter how sweet it all gets, it’s the same ole guys.

The episode continues a trend since last week’s solid episode of getting better and better each week.
