    I've had a crush on Julie Bowen (Claire) since 'Ed'... so I've to go with her!

    But I could be the meat in a Gloria Claire sandwich! :D

    Gloria ftw.:):)

    I don't think you need to be married to appreciate the joke either

    True. But I have to say, since getting married, comedies about married couples tend to be a lot funnier to me. For instance, I couldn't stand the King of Queens and Everybody loves Raymond before I was married, but now, I find them hilarious.

    Yeah, would have to agree, some people say her accent is annoying but it's like velvet to my ears personally... and she's not exactly lacking in any other areas either :pac:

    US network tv. Isn't it great?

    Bloody annoying, I was all excited this morning:mad:

    and Claire in the bra and pants was great.

    and I'm still laughing at the snowflake button scene.

    S01E15 My Funky Valentine

    This show just keeps knocking them out of the park ! This episode was, for me, one of the if not the, best so far this series, specifically Claire & Phil.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,906 ✭✭✭J-blk


    Yep, they have had consistently funny episodes for ages now... Phil just gets funnier every week, his idea of "sexy" role playing accents when they were planning the hotel outing was hilarious :).

    But even the most minor of characters with just one line can be great too: Dylan's "All women should look as tasty as you when they’re old" to Claire was very funny :D.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,571 ✭✭✭The Don


    Great episode again. Phil and Claire were great. I knew going to a comedian was going to blow up in Jay's face. That part with the escalator was brilliant.

    Excellent episode again this week and its holding strong in ratings, despite being up against American Idol... If it keeps up these ratings in season 2, I'm sure a 3rd season will most definitely be on the cards... It'd be nice to see this series last a few years anyway...

    one of the great things about this show is the cast they work so well together i couldnt imagine anyone else in the roles


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,115 ✭✭✭Pacifico


    Latest episode was brilliant!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,192 ✭✭✭TarfHead


    Phil Dunphy
    Legend !

    "Everybody wants a slice"
    "I know the pain is fresh, but the lie is really old."

    Have to agree, Phil is a hero.


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,774 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    The "Shout" gag in the latest episode had me in stitches, as did Luke's reactions to Denise! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Phil is one of the best characters on television at the moment... I loved how he stated exactly how many Facebook friends he had as if it made him really cool being connected to so many people...

    What about:

    Luke: "You had a girlfriend before mom?"
    Phil: "Try two. Trust me, I had plenty of fun in my time. Then I met your mom." ? :D

    Phil always has the funniest lines... Though I thought the ex chasing him around the kitchen was a bit much, too "sitcom-my" for this show... though it still was very funny.

    Oh and... "Flyza Minelli/Zsa Zsa Gaboa" :D - how did Jay not realize Mitchell was gay before he actually told him? :eek:

    I'm an Apple nut, but could have done without Apple shoving the iPad down our throat in the latest episode.

    Probably the weakest of the season, but still quite good!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,907 ✭✭✭dubmick


    Cam "It's go time"

    Brilliant

    i kinda liked it, building on the whole phil being a nerd thing they got going on. It was great seeing him moping around with no expectations....and thinking the party at the batting cages was for him :D

    But not one of the strongest episodes
