  Everyone goes to Bobby's father's house for the destination wedding. hide show

  "Well that would make sense since I'm half your age."
  
  This was a below average (they don't have a setting for that) episode of My Boys. There weren't really any laughs in the opening segment, except for Jamie Kaler who is portraying the Mike character perfectly. These type of characters can get old fast yet Mike's behavior never gets tiring.
  
  I don't like Bobby and his brother Jack is equally as bad. My Boys were smart for bringing in Christopher McDonald as he is a talented actor and has excellent comedic timing (obvious if you've seen Happy Gilmore). Him hitting on PJ was funny, and I wish the show went further with it. Mike continued to steal the show with his banter with the bartender during the wine tasting.
  
  The episode was just uncharacteristically unfunny. With all the great Thursday night programming during the summer, this was a very disappointing edition of My Boys.

  No wedding but a funeral. hide show

  FINALLY! I've been waiting since the season premiere to see Stephanie and Kenny hook up; I mean seriously, was I the only one seeing the signs? The way she always criticizes him, his instant backlash, I've been dying here waiting for this hook up. Didn't picture it inside a closet but you take what you get. (Breathes) This episode was funny (as usual) Bobby's dad is a hoot and not to mention creepy, the Jack and PJ scene where they kept being interrupted was funny I can't believe Bobby bought that? I think next week's the season finale, can't wait, it's likely to be awesome.

• Bobby: Hey everyone? If you could gather around, we wanted to do a little toast.
  Elsa: Thank you so much for coming. I can't tell you how happy we were to have you all here.
  Bobby: Yes, thank you all for being here for our very special occasion.
  Jack: It's not that special. Dad's done it five times.
  Bobby: Come on guys, not right now.
  Jack: Relax, I'm just trying to light things up a little bit. Get this party started.
  Bobby: Well stop it please.
  Jack: Oh, okay. I just thought, you know, it's a wedding. Supposed to be a celebration. You know, fun? Oh, okay, I'm sorry. Go ahead, do your thing.
  Bobby: Uh, that's rude, you're being rude and insulting. Usually you're such a gentleman.
  Jack: Oh, really. I'm the bad guy. For getting you to try to loosen up?
  Bobby: I don't need to loosen up.
  Jack: Obviously. Having a great time Bobby.
  Bobby: Maybe I would be if you would stop talking.
  Jack: I will, okay. Give your little speech Skinny (knocks his wine into Elsa's dress)
  Bobby: Wow.
  Elsa: Look, it's okay.
  Jack: She's just got some wet clothes. It's all right (has his arm around Bobby) Loosen up buddy.
  Bobby: Can you get you arm off of me? (Shoves Jack) I'm serious, okay?
  Jack: What is your problem? (shoves him back)
  Bobby: Really? Okay. (leaps at Jack and the two start fighting) [edit]
• (After Bobby starts stressing about the wedding)
  P.J.: Is there anything I can do?
  Bobby: If you wouldn't mind marrying my dad, I think that would take a lot of the pressure off.
  P.J.: (thinks it over for a minute) The question is, could I live with the hat? [edit]
• George: It is so great to have you and your brother back here. I really miss those vacations when you used to beat the tar out of each other.
  Bobby: Oh, yes. Those were the days.
  Brendan: Who won?
  Bobby: You know, it's really not important. We were just kids. Kids wrestling.
  Mike: So Jack won.
  George: Every time.
  Jack: Well not every time.
  Bobby: Thank you.
  Jack: Sometimes you bit me.
  Bobby: Come on, when?
  Jack: (points to his arm) Scar right there.
  P.J.: Oh look. It's little Bobby teeth marks.
  Jack: He was twenty-two.
  Bobby: Okay, what about this one?(points to his side) You remember that? Your archery set?
  Mike: Dude that's nothing. (points to lip) Hockey stick.
  Kenny: (points to head) Beer bottle.
  Brendan: (points to heart) Wendy.
  Mike: Ah man, you made it real. [edit]
