Was Claire out of Phil's league?


Re-watching the show, Claire is clearly a very attractive and intelligent woman with a high earning potential, a good work-ethic and sense of organization. Meanwhile Phil is kind of stupid and while he looks okay, he is certainly not oustandingly handsome or athletic.

Did he luck out by landing a wife so far out of his league?

reply

Phil is good-looking, loving, funny, and makes a good living as a realtor. Look at the house they live in--in L.A. it's probably worth a few million. She is not out of his league in any way.

Not at all, Claire was pretty but nothing extraordinary and Phil was a good looking and fun guy.
