BlossomCulp October 23, 2016 Share October 23, 2016 I really don't like the "Walk to the Door" very much. Marie being her usual nasty self when she talks about how picky Ray used to be about girls and the way all the Barones, but especially Frank and Marie make the other guests at the wedding uncomfortable with their comments and their loud talk but I LOVE Robert doing the Bunny Hop.

sofaslug November 21, 2016 Share November 21, 2016 "Marie's Sculpture" is probably my favorite (I always thought it looked like wings, go figure). My other favorite is when Robert is promoted to lieutenant and Ray's book deal is shot down. "I was thinking, a lot of books get published that suck. For yours not to be published must be off the charts suck." In "A Vote For Debra" when she learns that Ray voted against her and she while arguing with him comments how she told people she didn't know him as he was "stuffing his pants with meat". "I'm your husband. You're supposed to support me no matter what's in my pants!". Cracks me up every time. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3519-the-best-of-elr-your-favorite-moments/page/4/#findComment-2766955

ByTor December 6, 2016 Share December 6, 2016 (edited) With Christmas coming, I was thinking about the good Raymond Christmas shows. I think Seasons Greetings was my favorite, followed very closely by Christmas Present. I also liked The Toaster...I love Debra's parents' house...but I wonder if I'm alone in thinking that an engraved toaster isn't exactly some kind of spectacular gift. I know this is the "like" thread, but in keeping with a Christmas discussion I do NOT like All I Want For Christmas (Raymond singing "In the Ghetto" works my last nerve), and I can't stand the Christmas Picture one, (everybody except Debra's parents behave like asses IMO).

CherryAmes December 6, 2016 Share December 6, 2016 I liked all the seasonal episodes and loved that ELR managed to hit most of the holidays at least once. I noticed they never seemed to "do summer" though but I guess that's because they followed the seasons the show was airing in. Anyway I don't know if I could pick a favourite Christmas episode but if pressed I guess it would be a toss up between The Toaster and The Jazz Records (not sure if that's the actual title) that last episode is one time I really sympathized with Robbie and loved his lines when he was describing "that happy brotherless boy" LOL. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3519-the-best-of-elr-your-favorite-moments/page/4/#findComment-2807228
ByTor December 7, 2016 Share December 7, 2016 The Jazz Records one really is great. Egg ass! Why in the world, though, would Raymond think it was a good idea to hide in his parents' house and blast them with music as soon as they opened the door? I imagine he didn't expect it to be so loud, but I'd be afraid I'd shock one or both of them into a heart attack! 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3519-the-best-of-elr-your-favorite-moments/page/4/#findComment-2808508

Not alone! A toaster is a good gift if you need one or if it does something special (like the ones that can emboss shapes on the bread) but otherwise it's not that great. Having their names engraved on it was nice but the "Merry Christmas" being on it was kinda weird. You use a toaster year round and I think it would be odd to use something that said "Merry Christmas" all year round. But turd hats others would love a Merry Christmas toaster! 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3519-the-best-of-elr-your-favorite-moments/page/4/#findComment-2811256

These packages not only contained the "fruit of the month" fruit, they also added extra fruit they had left over from their local market.
