> Nothing beats that scene in “Old Fame With A New Wick” with Alan, Charlie and Berta watching Evelyn and Bill (nee Jill) on the terrace.

A close second has to be the flash-forward to the future when Judith finally brings 13-year-old Milly around to Charlie and Alan’s place.

She looks exactly like Jake with long hair and a figure! :eek:

> There is also the episode where Charlie is dating a woman who looks like a younger version of his mom. As the two ladies are staring each other down, Berta IIRC says something like “I gotta quit coming to work high.”

From the same episode, a hilarious line from Berta I can’t believe the censors let through (paraphrased): “The only difference between those two broads is, you came out of one and you’re–” [before Charlie cut her off].

I’ll let you fill in the blank.😃

Poor Jake. Evelyn gives him a job twirling a sign on the street for her real estate company, and she and the men are in the car watching him: ‘this might become his career’ - (and an ice cream truck goes by, and he drops the sign and runs after it)…In another episode, Charlie says ‘he’s going to end up selling tube socks out of the trunk of his car’ . and Alan says with a sigh, ‘a business of his own!’
