    Phil needs to get at least a couple of Golden Globes/Emmys someday; he's got great physical comedy acting down, like Kramer. He's got a fake 'stache while stuck in an outhouse?

    Anything that keeps Julie Bowen on television is fine by me.

    (Oh, and the rest of the show is pretty good too.)

    This might be my new favorite show. Little Manny does it for me. That kid is hilarious.

    Gloria: Manny, do you want a cupcake?

    Manny: No thanks ... oh wait, that was a mistake. Now she'll know something is up.

    Gloria: Are you OK?

    Manny rules. I would watch a spinoff centered around Manny.

    This week's best bit was Dylan doing the Say Anything thing holding up his cell phone.

    Julie in her underwear a couple episodes back certainly wasn't unpleasant.

    Eh, I loved the explanation that it's called a "moonlanding".

    OK, caught some of this tonight after the game. Should pay closer attention. They're one big family?
    Al Bundy's daughter is Julie Bowen? The gay couple, how are they related? The small guy in that couple, is that Jesse Tyler Ferguson? He sat next to me on stage during my brief shining moment on Broadway.

    Al Bundy is the dad to both Julie Bowen and the skinny gay guy.

    Ah, OK. And is their mother a part of it and I just didn't see it tonight?

    Is that Jesse Tyler Ferguson?

    Their mother had a guest appearance once or twice, but is not a main character.

    I don't know who Jesse Tyler Ferguson is.

    I just looked it up, it is Jesse Tyler Ferguson.
    He was in the original cast of 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. The show pulls four from the audience each show to sit on stage and "participate" in the spelling bee. I was one of the lucky four, plopped right next to him.

    He left the show to do a TV show called The Class. He's also appeared twice in Ugly Betty.

    This is the first season for this show?
