Seems like everything and everyone that was meant to make this show what it is just came together so organically. Thta's why many people say that a show like Seinfeld and this one come very esporadically. Can you imagine all the networks waiting to jump and try to buy the show when the adults were demanding a salary raise? I bet everyone at Fox who decided to pass on it wants to kill themselves

I know we say this everytime, that we can't picture another actor for a particular role. But I have high respects for Ed. He's not everyone's favourite character on the show but he does Jay so damn well.

Totally agree,its like it all comes natural to him.

Ed has that very special quality. He made me like Al Bundy, and that was not a likable character!!!

Ed reminds me of that lovable grandpa that tries very hard and has that endearing quality about him.

***L i N d $ @ y*** · 09-18-2012, 01:00 AM

And now he's going to be a father again, changing diapers and taking turns with Gloria holding the baby. I can't wait!!!

**fly me to the moon** · 09-18-2012, 08:37 AM

^ For that, I'm so looking forward to see that..

Sweet Embrace · 09-18-2012, 02:52 PM

Yes, I can't wait to see this part of his life!

Yes! The one who acts all tough but you know he's a softie deep down

I cant wait to c how Claire and Mitch react to the way the new baby is treated and if he changes the way he brings his children up.

Sweet Embrace · 09-20-2012, 02:48 PM

I expect it to make Jay more softer, like he is with Lily.

I love it when both Steve & Jesse tweeted this.
