    Judy Greer, who has guested on just about every CBS show appeared here as Herb's sister. Ryan Stiles and Judy Greer together might seem like a dream comedy duo for some, but Two and a Half Men missed a lot of opportunities here. Still though, it was a funny episode, about on par with most of the installments you have seen throughout this season.

    Charlie Sheen has been known to phone it in from time to time and this is one of those times, but he still had a few funny lines. Alan was good here, but that's usually a given.

    Good episode, but not great.moreless

    Another clap for the writers. I enjoyed this episode as it was entertaining, but not only that, the story continues onto the next episode -- the wedding!

    Myra is cute, and good for Charlie. The layout of tonights episode was a good choice. Great storylines and another week full of action, suspense and yes like I mentioned: Entertainment. So, as we've seen this, what the hell is going to happen on the next show? Will bossy Judith and Herb marry, or not? More importantly my favorite was the Charlie/Myra story, I wonder what will become of them> They'll probably break up.

    Overall, great storylines with action turned this into a superb and well written episode.moreless

    This episode is the best written and funniest episode of the season if not the show.

    Charlie meets Herb's (Judith's Fianc) sister who he immediately becomes attracted to but begins to have feelings for her.

    Alan meanwhile celebrates writing his last cheque to Judith before she gets married.

    Both story lines are fantastically funny and superbly executed. Watching Charlie try to deal with his feelings and his confusion is brilliant and Myra plays the perfect woman for Charlie.

    Myra is the female version of Charlie and challenges him in many ways. She is completely different from the women Charlie usually dates and he has no idea what to do.moreless

  • Charlie the ladies man, finally may have met a girl that challenges his brain more than his shorts.

    The writers are absolutely amazing. The show stays funny week after week. Nice to see Charlie finally, get a smart girl for a change. The adult content stays over the top, and over children's heads. The addition of Ryan Stiles (The boyfriend soon to be husband???? of Alan's ex wife on the show) has been wonderful. He is hilarious, and will only make the show that much better. The entire cast is perfect, and compliments the main characters. This is no doubt my favorite comedy on television. Finally we have a show that rivals past favorites such as Cheers, Mash and Seinfeld. This episode used all the characters, and kept us entertained, and hanging on for the conclusion.moreless
