Ha! I totally missed the Monkees joke at the time. I laughed anyway, but just because I thought it was funny that they had to explain that they were monkeys. It's so much better now! Thanks TheatreDiva!
I still enjoy this show, but more and more the kids annoy the Hell out of me Alex and Manny especially. It seems that the more emphasis is placed on them, the more I'm conscious of bad child acting (it probably doesn't help that each comes off as so obnoxious and big headed on talk show appearances).
"...kids annoy the Hell out of me Alex and Manny especially"
Interesting, because I feel just the opposite. Early on, I think both those characters came very close to being those wise-beyonds-their-years precocious TV kids that we all hate, but over the three seasons they've become much more real.
TheatreDiva: I posted the "Hey. Hey. We're the Monkeys" joke the day it aired. (But yeah...it's still hilarious, whether it aired on the day Davy died or not. It wasn't planned.)
The "Dottie after a Didi" joke had me laughing out loud, mainly because Gloria actually understood it was funny too, despite all of her "trouble" with English and words/puns/idiomatics that sound the same.
Tonight's season finale was absolutely brilliant. Possibly the best episode of the entire series. Absolutely hilarious one minute, then deeply touching (to the point that my eyes welled up) the next.
No show on television right now even comes close to this one.
Glad I am not the only one who fell head over heels for last night's episode. Luke's gasp "You're making sex?" and "One more with flash" made me laugh out loud. Glad D-Money is back. I look forward to his & Phil's interaction.
