It was hilarious and the glee with which the youngster playing him did it made it all the more special. I rarely laugh out loud, I’m a smile and breath out guy, but there were noises made by me regarding this week’s show. That’s a really good sign.

A weak episode of Modern Family is better than most of the stuff out there anyway.

That was Cyclops? Shit, I didn’t recognise him at all.

Jami Gertz was much hotter back when she was on Square Pegs.

So was Sarah Jessica Parker IMO.
