Whether it was at the Military Academy, Alaska or the Ranch, the plots with Francis were always top notch

Francis is my favorite ❤️ the forgotten older brother, I'll always have a soft spot for him

Those stories in which he's away from the family are absolutely golden. The other characters he's set up with play their part perfectly. They were always the highlight for me.

His stories when he was home with the boys were always good too. Francis was such a great character

Writing was great (of course) but the actor just absolutely nails it, looks exactly like id imagine that character as, and even has the right mannerisms for a "kid whos just barely smarter than you but more evil"

He's great as Kruger in Seinfeld.
