On second thought maybe you won't take my comments the wrong way. You see I know I'm definitely in the minority here when it comes to current sitcom marriages. But I am sick to death of controlling wives bossing their bumbling, do nothing right husbands. I cannot stand Debra or Patricia Heaton, for that matter. Within 5 minutes of each episode she has that hand on her hip and that icy stare planted firmly on Ray's face. Oh PH plays that bitchy wife part to the a T. I'll give her that. My husband is into this show, so it's on every Monday night. I prefer the shows before it and after. So when ELR comes on, it's break time for me. I like to ask when it's over - hey was Deb nice this week? LOL Okay, your turn j. I'll be interested to see what you have to say. My favorite character on that show is Frank. He is the best one, hands down, on that show. The most consistent character, IMHO. He was crabby from day one, still is crabby but there's just something about Frank that's likeable.

Best episode of any comedy show - ever!
