HOw did the episode end? My Tivo cut it off just as she was walking on water.

This episode was great. It makes me wish they made Therone a regular. The jokes they could of played off her would have been awsome. I guess it wouldn't mater anyway.

Awesome ending.

Didn't know about the Hale/Roboto connection either.

nope, they didn't include the simpsons..

but now, how does that make sense? AD didn't work out after the simpsons, which translates into: people who watch the simpsons don't watch AD. so, knowing that, why advertise AD during the simpsons?

i saw 10 spots for Skating With Celebrities during NFL Football!! COME ON!!

The scene where Rita is all excited she gets to listen to "young people" music with George Michael and then turns on the Wiggles had my Wife and I rolling.......

We also loved GM and his light saber fighting on video........his comedic timing is brilliant.......

Oh, so that's what the [1] at the top of the page means. Apparently if I click on that, it shows me earlier posts. Who knew?

Somebody owes me money for the damage to my white couch, after I spit out my Coke thanks to the "Monster" gag. In all, a nice "return to form" episode after a few questionable ones.

Somebody please save this show.

Brilliant episode. The Charlize payoff was worth it.

Ron Howard was exceptional again.

All the call-backs were killer.

Thank God the whole Charlize thing is over now. If that run of episodes was any indication of what to expect from the remaining few, then I won't be that disappointed about its cancellation. As many others have mentioned, the ending was great--probably the only joke to get a laugh out of me, aside from the Monster bit.

Agree it was brilliantly funny.

The slow-motion moment where Michael realizes she's retarded, followed by the inevitable yet perfect: "I've made a HUGE mistake."

How many more eps will we get to see on TV, and why haven't they figured out a way to track the two or three non-Nielsen people watching shows using TIVO??

thanks. I've seen people freak out when someone posts the ratings in the episode thread (where else are they supposed to go?) and thought maybe they were already out somewhere. I'd doubt that the viewership changed much.......although I hope to be wrong.

I don't think she was smoking. She had her tongue kind of sticking out, but I didn't see her smoking anything. I just watched it (torrent) since I forgot to dvr it. Good stuff.

Spoiler for those who don't want to know the ratings:

Spoiler:

It lost to a repeat of 7th Heaven....

ABC won the 8 p.m. hour with a 7.7/12 for "Wife Swap" (and football on the West Coast). Reruns of "The King of Queens," 6.5/10, and "How I Met Your Mother," 6.1/9, put CBS in second. NBC was third with an early showing of "Las Vegas," 5.7/9. The WB snagged fourth place with a "7th Heaven" repeat, edging FOX's "Arrested Development," 2.8/4, and "Kitchen Confidential," 2.1/3. UPN trailed with "One on One" and "All of Us

I certainly agree with that.

For the past few years, I didn't think she was all that (for some reason---same as I currently feel for Cameron Diaz). Anyway, since AD, she's now toward the top of my list.
