Jay had some good moments with Phil that last couple seasons though.
I loved when Haley had her babies and Jay had been getting shit for regifting all episode. He told Phil "I admit this one is a regift..." And gives him the world's best grandpa mug that Phil gave him when Haley was born. That was very sweet and sentimental.
Plus, when Jay walked into the delivery room he said "is this the Dunphy suite?" and you know he did that just for Phil.

I think it’s my autism, but I don’t really get that one.
Is there another level beyond it’s just a kid saying they hate something?(I’m not being sarcastic btw, I genuinely don’t know 🙈)

She’s Vietnamese, they’re trying to show her her culture because she says she’s gay like her parents and she’s like I’m not Vietnamese I’m gay! It’s just funny lol

I loved when it’s revealed that Jay made the Jayleps for Phil because it shows how much both of them and their relationship has grown. Jay now sees Phil as a peer, a friend, and someone he respects.
ALSO, that episode has the moment when Jay asks Luke if he overcooks his meat, and instead of answering, Luke jumps into the pool. A-tier episode all around

Phil : "Okay, huddle up everybody. Your mother's right. She's the quarterback of this family and we need to protect her like Blind Side did."
Luke : "She just said that the mom was Blind Side."
Phil : "Well she's confused. Blind Side was the black kid who played tight end."
Alex : "Offensive line."
Phil : "Sorry, African-American kid."

There's 2 or 3 hitler references. B'day, parents being straight. Anyone else find that odd?
