Brotherly Love
Mr-Fusion8 September 2017
Beverly offers her matchmaking services in finding a love interest for Pops, and there's a degree of poignance to her coming to terms with her father as ladies man; and it's likable because of the actors (with Jeff Garlin stuck in the middle) . . .

But most of my enjoyment derived from Barry and Adam, suddenly united after discovering a scrambled porn channel. Sure, there's a valuable lesson for almost everyone here, but it's that commonality that resonates. Two siblings so separate in age finding harmony in something. I see some of my relationship with my brother in this, and that's probably why I gravitated so much to their half of the episode.

7/10

Plot; Barry and Adam bond over scrambled porn while Bev tries to play matchmaker for Albert.

The bonding with your older brother theme was one I could identify with. There are three stages of a brotherly relationship; 1.) Friendship, 2.) Competitive mutual disdain and 3.) Friendship.

Why're You Hitting Yourself?

Warning: Spoilers
A much better episode, largely because it varies the format from others - it's not Bev meddling in Adam's life for a change.

They still don't seem to know what to do with with the sister - maybe because she's not inspired by a member of Adam F Goldberg's real family, but this episode does show promise.
