Loved seeing Julia Louis-Dreyfus playing "Flashback Liz" especially when she did a joke about Slumdog Millionaire in the East Coast one and Disney's Aladdin in the West Coast one.

I'd been figuring the show was going to be downhill from here on out following a merely decent season three and a pretty bad season four, but so far they're 4-for-4 having great episodes this year, and this live one was just super. It looks like they really want that Emmy back from Modern Family next September.

Season 4 had some experimenting, so it was nice to see Tina et al. get back to its core for Season 5. The live show was good, but stilted in places.

Outside of "MILF Island," I don't think there's ever been an outright bad episode of the series. Personally, I thought "Live" was okay but middling compared to other Season 5 episodes.
