I absolutely howled at Phil's milkshake spit-take when Haley pulled on his seatbelt again.
And Manny is actually one of my least favorite characters on the show, I don't know why but he just kind of annoys me. Phil is far and away my fave.
Manny is a bit over exposed this season; his subtle humor (dinner jacket) from last year was a lot better...time for him to take a back seat for a little bit.
My favorite line of this year is from Phil regarding Angela Lansbury being the grand marshall of a parade: "Good times, she wrote."

Was it funny tonight? I watched a fucking tornado warning for 30 minutes.

Haven't seen tonight's episode yet, but we finally watched last weeks. Dear sweet Jesus, I was dying laughing. Phil was cracking me up left & right, and Manny's mom (why can I remember her boobs in perfect detail but not recall her name??) with the dog was great, too. Last week's episode was one of their best, IMO.

i saw one on demand tonight, first one i ever saw. its only a little better than shows like til death, etc based on this one episode. it was the one where the gay dude and the hot blond chick made a strangers on a trainesque pact to yada yada whatever. the thing that gets me is the fact that a lot of people have had the gall to mention this show to me in the same sentence as arrested development, and i just dont get it based on this one episode. am i missing something, was this a subpar episode, or is it just not for me?

Watch another. I can't friggin' stand shows like Till Death or Two and a Half Men (maybe I just hate laugh tracks), and this show is heads and tails better than that drivel.

I agree.
I wouldn't put in in the same league as AD, or even Seinfeld. But...for a network TV show, especially among the current crop, it's as good as it gets.

It's now, officially, the only primetime show that I watch.
