I'm always amazed at the caliber of guest stars who pop up on this show. I know Chazz Palminteri's stock has fallen as of late, but still...

One of my all time favorites as well.
I enjoyed the episode too.

this show is alot funnier than ABC's other (lame) show: Cougar Town (watched one episode, and thought I had wasted 24 minutes of my life)

I like Cougar Town. You should give it another shot. I honestly think it could rival this one for laughs.

Apparently, The Middle is the forgotten step-child of ABC Comedy Wednesdays.

the Lisa Kudrow episode was somewhat of a letdown and I for one thought the cookie cutter casting of an all caucasian cast was just bland

No way Cougar town doesn't come close. Characters don't feel real, nothing on that show feels real, the sets are the worst sets on tv, every single one you can tell they are filming on a sound stage. from the lighting and extras. The characters aren't really likable, all seem shallow.

I just watched the pilot and then this episode on the same night and now I am hooked! This show is hysterical! I know I might be a bit late, but I have my DVR set and hopefully I can catch up on all the fun! Love this show!

Anyone got an ETA on the "Gloria in the Back Dress" screencaps?

Don't feel too ashamed, the actress is actually 19. She has the Mila Kunis potential - we'll see in a few years.

This show definitely grows on you.

I guess I'm kind of a latecomer. I just started watching this low and I love it. Favorite new show of the season.

Have they hinted at Phil's cheerleading in the past? That and the picture had me busting up.

I'm another latecomer to this, just having seen the past few weeks - So it was awesome to get to watch the pilot and this episode. This has quickly jumped to my most looked-forward-to show (much like Arrested Development used to...)

Really? That is a load of my conscience cos I've been feeling bad for finding her increasingly attractive.

Yea, it felt wrong when I first "noticed" her - and finding out she's 19 helps a lot.

But don't worry, you're probably still a perv.

I get to "notice" her and still be a perv? That just makes it a win-win for me!

Yeah, I did exactly that after Coral said she was 19. Iguess to make it "true" in my mind.

Yeah, I realised she was in that ad when I stopped to wonder why I'd ignore my instinctive impulse to channel surf.
