Brick spending all that time separating the leaves and then wanting to free them or keep them in his room

I never really thought Patricia Heaton looked good, but damn she looked real good in that purple dress!

Pretty good episode

I wonder is Sue is going to wear her cross country sweatshirt for the entire season?

I haven't watched the episode yet, but the creators in Entertainment Weekly said she will keep on the cross country sweater for about 10 episodes.

The Middle -- "The Diaper Incident" -- 10/06/10

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
By djariya at 2010-09-03

Synopsis:

Spoiler:
While shopping for baby diapers for Sue, who has run out of them on a baby-sitting job, Frankie is completely humiliated when a clerk assumes she's shopping for adult diapers. Meanwhile, after getting on Mike's case to get a physical exam because she thinks men tend to fall apart faster than women as they age, Frankie proceeds to throw out her back and hides it from Mike, who tells her he received a clean bill of health from the doctor; a clueless Sue falls for Axl's friend, Sean, who barely notices her existence; and Brick begins to test all of the age-old urban legends parents tell their kids - such as not to swallow a watermelon seed for fear one will grow in their belly - after discovering Frankie has used these white lies on him in the past.

The part with Brick not being able to turn off the hot water was great!

The Middle -- "The Quarry" -- 10/13/10

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
By djariya at 2010-09-03

Synopsis:

Spoiler:
When Axl is suspended for skipping school, Mike decides it's time to teach his son a lesson about life and makes him go to work with him at the quarry. But Mike's master plan backfires when Axl likes the job so much that he wants to quit school and lead the life of a quarryman. Meanwhile, Frankie is devastated when she fears that she accidentally prayed away Sue's cross-country team after it's cut by the school; and while practicing a magic trick, Brick makes the main TV remote disappear - and can't figure out how to make it reappear.


From the synopsis:

Brick makes the main TV remote disappear - and can't figure out how to make it reappear.

In case you can't see this tonight, it repeats on Friday night at 830pm.

By djariya at 2010-09-03

Synopsis:

Spoiler:
Frankie is excited over being invited to an adult neighborhood Halloween party. But will she be able to get Mike to dress up in a costume, or will he have his own idea of fun? Meanwhile, a melancholy Sue's spirits are lifted when she discovers that Reverend TimTom is back in town and hosting a Halloween church event; things don't go quite as planned for Axl, his friends or their dates as they head out to an exclusive haunted house party; and Brick chooses a unique Halloween costume that is not easily defined.

Well, it does seem Sue finally does have a boyfriend or at least a prospect.

And why didn't the Janitor just go with the "Brawny Guy?" He could have carried around a roll of paper towels the rest of the evening to at least make it look like he came up with a costume.

He seemed like he really wanted to be obstinate that night.

Loved Axl and Mike talking about growing up and hot girls and Mike reassuring that he was happy when he thought he heard the door.

Yeah that had me cracking up as well. I think the actress that plays her does an excellent job with the character.

The Brick story was good. Can't get enough of the hot blonde (used to be on The Loop).

I thought it was ok.

Mike confronting the girl's dad was the best part.

I liked the Sue/Mike story. It was very sweet especially since Sue stories can be such a bummer sometimes.
