Posted: 9/23/11 at 5:58pmJust got around to watching the episodes. A rare miss, on both counts.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

I actually enjoyed both episodes, though I won't say either of them will go down as the greatest of the series.
I nearly fell off the couch when Luke told Lilly, "This isn't over."
Speaking of which, I'm going to have to get used to the new Lilly dynamic. It was almost like the dead pan baby knew how ridiculous the whole family was.
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

Posted: 9/24/11 at 1:02pmNo idea how old the baby is, but she looks/act much older than three. That's what threw me most about the transition.

Posted: 10/5/11 at 9:46pmOK, now THAT was a brilliant episode. The Streetcar references, "offensive line", etc. We rewound the "offensive line" line a couple of times to savor it.

O-M-G.
That "offensive line" line killed me. KILLED me. Hilarious.

I just can't get over how much this show IS my family.
When you look at the relationship between Mitch and Cam, I am Cam.
When you look at the relationship with Mitch and Claire, I am Mitch.
Claire IS my sister. Absolutely like they based the character 100% on my sister. It's not as funny in real life.
Jay is a hybrid of my Mom and Stepdad.
Phil is my brother-in-law (also not as funny in real life.)
Gloria is all of us.
And my dog is Lilly from the first two seasons.
I just love this show. I didn't like it at first. It took like 7 episodes to get me on board. But now I am.

Posted: 10/21/11 at 1:28pmI keep hoping I'll like the show more than I do, but for some reason, it never really becomes hilarious for me. Amusing and occaisonally humorous is about as far as it gets. I love the cast and I think they're really talented, but I find myself getting disinterested in the stories. Like the dude ranch, the tightrope and the stop sign stories.

Funny - because that's EXACTLY what I think of Revenge - I keep wanting it to get good, but it just bores the hell out of me. My wife loves it, so I watch sometimes while she has it on, but it doesn't do anything for me.
To each his own.

Posted: 10/22/11 at 4:31pmRight now I think this show and "Parks & Recreation" are funniest shows on television.
