I just watched all episodes! :-)


Today I finished watching season 6's 15th episode "Should I Bring A Jacket?", the series finale. Now I have watched all episodes! This was a great episode and had a lot of funny jokes. I like the part where Greg says that Jimmy is his brother. I also like the part where Jimmy and Christine and Dominic and Logan are going to move back in to the guest house.

I like all four characters but prefer Jimmy and Christine to Greg and Kim. I wonder why Emily didn't get much lines or screen time. I hope the series gets released on dvd and there is a reunion. Yes, Dear is one of my favorite shows! :-)

Who has seen all episodes? What do you think?

I've watched every episode, several times. I have all seasons donwloaded and for years it's always has been the show my wife and I put on when we can't find or agree on something to watch.

I didn't like the last episode too much. But the entire series is what as close as what a sitcom can get to perfection.

And yeah, Emily didn't have much lines, but throughout the entire series Sammy had only a handful of lines- I think they just got stuck with terrible kid actors. It's different with Dominick and Logan however- for the majority of the show Dominick has been the same actor- and as you know, Logan was replaced several times until they got it right. Dominick was a good kid actor- that's why he always had lines- Logan didn't get any lines until it was the final actor that played him. I think they didn't feel as comfortable to replace the actors playing Sammy as a posed to Dominick and Logan- but they should- all they kid could do is look at directions and mumble his lines. Probably Emily too.


But as you can tell, I love the show.

I just finished the whole series and I loved it. Moments in almost every episode made me laugh out loud.

Emily wasn't born until like the 3rd/4th season, so all they could really do with her were baby storylines, which are the death knell for most long running sitcoms. Thankfully Yes, Dear just left her out. I thought Dominic was a horrible actor, even for a kid. He delivers every line the exact same way, with the same inflections and pitch changes and everything.

I don't really have a favorite character. Greg's anal-retentive overly-sensitive nature probably produced some of my favorite moments though.

I was actually bummed today because I didn't have any more new episodes to watch.

So it has come to this. After years of searching, I have found you. They said there would be another. Another who has embraced, enjoyed and been enlightened by YD (that's short for Yes, Dear for those in the know -- but you are in the know, apparently). Congratulations on finishing watching all the episodes, or as true YD (that's short for Yes, Dear for those in the know) aficionados call it, transcending the mortal coil. You have now reached the first step in a process that will demand your attention, your sense of duty and your carnal passions for the rest of your natural life, or at least as long as the big yellow star in the sky (ie, the sun) burns bright.

What's next my YD (that's short for Yes, Dear for those in the know) Padawan? Focus, focus, focus. Why did this show that was handed down from another age resonate with you in such a way? Was it Kim's wanton habits, Jimmy's earthly wisdoms or Logan's p, well, you know, That part took me about 28 months to answer. It was worth it though! You can and nay must do the same

I will let you in on one little secret. Something is rotten in YD-(that's short for Yes, Dear for those in the know)-mark. There are those who walk among us, doctors, lawyers, dog groomers, who lie about transcending the mortal coil. I have it on good authority-someone who goes to a real church (episcopalians need not apply)-that some in this very Internet thread-and why do we call it a thread , there is no one sewing here (I think that was a Kim burn on Greg (a Kiurn) from season 6, episode 11 (but you knew that already)) haha, sewing!!-pretend to have watched all episodes YD (that's short for Yes, Dear for those in the know) when they have seen maybe, at best, bootleg footage for some and reenactments at parties for others. Why do people do this you implore? The elders say it was borne of a love for Still Standin...I can't complete the title of such a vile abomination, but if you use a good internet search query portal, you will know what I mean. Distrusting, indeed. A large British man pretending to be from Chicago. And as we all believe in our hearts, those who have tastes Bacon, cannot be given a spotlight. So please be wary my new and forever friend. The next two to three years will be incredibly demanding, but oh so rewarding. Not monetarily, of course-peasants think like that, and UPS shareholder-- but in the deeper sense. The Jimmy sense.

Let us meet back here in early 2018 to reengage. And may JLK be always in your pocket.
