I got into this show midway through last season and enjoyed it thoroughly. Will definitely be watching tonight. Have they explained why the daughter in an East Coast Jewish family is clearly Latina?

AJ Michalka was promoted to series regular for this year. Wonder if her role on Gotham will limit the number of episodes that they get Natalie Alyn Lind this year.

The kids, especially Adam, are getting too old for their parts. How did this happen in one year??

I may have asked this before, but are the characters (at least the kids) going to be suspended in time (kinda like the Simpsons)? The older ones are still in high school, even though they were looking at colleges in season 1.

Yeah, the kid playing Adam really had a growth spurt in the off-season, not to mention he now has to alter his voice. It seemed much more natural before. And I also remember thinking last year that his girlfriend seemed much older than him. Then I made the mistake of doing a Google image search on the actress. Yikes!

Does he still do the voice of Jeff on Clarence or did they have to replace him?
Wow, I actually used to have the same FAX machine he used in this episode.

I'm wondering if his adult voice will end up being lower than Patton Oswalt, who is supposedly the grown-up version of him.
Much like how Fred Savage developed a deeper voice than Daniel Stern on The Wonder Years. Speaking of which, if you wanna feel REALLY old, just remember that more time has passed between the era of the Goldbergs and today, than between the era of The Wonder Years and the time when it aired.

Just saw it again. There was a reference to his voice changing at the beginning I didn't catch the first time. I'm wondering how Dana received the fax? Not many people had them. Adam also faxed it with the print facing up, when he was supposed to have the print facing down.
I'm not picky with their timelines but what the hell. Everyone knows how to fax.

I think he did have it placed wrong during the episdoe which I thought was going to be part of the joke to see blank pages come out on the other end (on thermal paper that rolled up after cut).

in "1980 something" not everyone knew how to use fax machines. I don't believe we got one at my place of work (hotel) until 1988 or 1989. Also on some machines you need to have printed side up while others were face down.

In the episode, the little graphic on the fax machine instructed to have printed side down which he did not do. Would like to know how Dana received it.

No one got that reference? I guess you're not following the right people on Twitter.
