Well, I’m split on this episode.  I was so mad that Phil would even think of blaming his son for what he himself did.  That’s super low.  I know it totally fits his character but I’m mad at him for that.

And that dog.  Can you believe Jay was calling it a piece of art.  I did love when he told Gloria the dog couldn’t be in the guest bedroom because he (the dog) worked for them.  I wouldn’t want that thing in my house either and was thoroughly entertained by Gloria’s repulsion of it.  I loved the scenes where Jay was expressing his love for Gloria while he was holding the dog’s hand and in front of the preacher.

I love Cam.  I love that he has no bounds to his big heart.  I love that he ended up throwing a wedding in his living room for his gardner.  How funny was it that they even had an archway?

Not my favorite episode but certainly funny.  What did you think?

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say this is the funniest show on network tv.  My husband disagrees and says Community is the funniest and I’ll give him a solid second place for that.  There is something about this family that gets me every time.  Since we haven’t been blogging about it I’ll give you a really quick overview.  The dad has married a younger drop dead gorgeous Columbian woman with a ten year old son.  Then the daughter is married to a really nice moron and has three children.  Teenage years and down.  Then the son and his boyfriend have just adopted a little baby girl named Lily.  So that’s the family.  Hilarity ensues.

Enough with the intro.  I totally loved when Gloria’s ex showed up and swept Jay off of his feet.  How sad to see him heartbroken when Javier doesn’t show up for their man date at the end.  I did like when Javier said “I used to” are the saddest words.  I’m only in my thirties and there are definite “I used to’s” in my life.

Then Phil with his kidney stone.  ”You’ll be all right.”  ”We don’t know that.”  And I just about died when Claire came out of the closet all dolled up for the firemen.  Wearing heels and a low cut blouse with makeup on.  But nothing compares to Phil cavorting with the big busted ladies next door in the hospital.

And then there’s Cam and Mitchell.  Oh my gosh did this bring back memories.  My husband and I fought over Ferberizing our first and it did not end well at the time.  Everyone is great now but man I wish I had those months to do over again.  It’s so hard when one parent is into it and the other isn’t but Mitchell trying to take Cam down while he’s running for Lily will stay with me forever.  Cam and Mitchell are by far my favorite part of this show.  I love them.

So not the funniest episode but still really good.  Where you as shocked as I was that Alex was so excited about the firemen too?
