The critic I am emulating is Robert Abele who wrote the review “The IT Crowd: The Office With a Laugh Track” from LAweekly.

One of the lunatic episodes from The IT Crowd, titled “Aunt Irma Visits”, where fetching female boss Jen has her period and has to explain to her oblivious co-workers Roy and Moss the joyous symptoms. Like the powerful mood swings around that certain time of the month. As well as,

More specifically, she not only recognizes that they are awkwardly experiencing the same symptoms as well, but the geekazoids interject that is an absurd proposition. Later, socially awkward Roy and Moss reconsider with an openhearted embrace. As always, set in what resembles an adolescent’s bedroom of a basement corporation’s tech-support center — where Jen explains to Moss that a period is “the first scene from Carrie”.

The show is notorious for displaying minor disasters, Moss sends out an email, and as a result Roy and Moss acquire that they are indeed suffering period symptoms. Then they experience, yet again, a bizarre twist of fate, after launching their own website titled “ladyproblems.com”, which then turned them into internet celebrities while provoking “Aunt Irma” riots all over the world.

The ridiculousness does not stop here - Moss has been seeing the attractive company psychiatrist, where Roy swears she looks identical to his mother, but she regretfully informs Moss that he no longer needs her expertise. Come to find out later, she pays Moss a visit in the IT department to express how she stopped seeing him as a patient, so she can make her moves. Moss, as usual, reacts awkwardly.

The running gag of Aunt Irma continues, where the IT department decides to a “big girls’ night out” – with everything in place, down to the tee, including scented candles and the movie Steel Magnolias.

Previously, they all agreed not to attend the celebration party at work, because just like children, they were too stubborn to come to terms with, yet again, disappointment felt from being neglected without receiving any thanks from the company. Ironically, they end up attending the party, where Moss meets with the incredibly good-looking psychiatrist and they all get ridiculously drunk. That following morning, Moss appears from Jen’s bathroom and Roy is woken up by the psychiatrist offering him a cup of tea. 

The episode concludes with "To Be Continued", but these happenings are never brought up again.
