    HILARIOUS episode! Many LOL and embarrassing moments: late wake-up, gigantic baggage, seating arragement, first-class shift, Sue's diary, and lots more! :guffaw:

    Ah I love The Middle and the NYC trip one was stellar. Wednesday's show was a little weak, but still good. I have a thing for Axl. I'm glad he is really 20 in real life or i'd be creepy

    I also enjoyed the Math class episode though it wasn't as funny as the Hecks on a plane. I laughed when Ms. Rinsky told the parents that she's glad they were able to attend her class even if 'The Mentalist' was on! :lol:

    Spring cleaning episode - a good one. I think I need to rewatch. I already forgot what happened here except Brick's funny B story! :lol:

    Very good finale! Funnier than other comedy finales I watched. Good to see Ms. Rinsky again. She really owned Frankie! :lol:

    I hope you will still watch the show even if it will air against X Factor/American Idol, Survivor and new NBC comedy next season. :thumbsup:

    "The Ditch" – While waiting in line at the power company to pay a late bill and dressed in her lab coat for her new dental assisting job, people mistake Frankie for a doctor and let her cut in front of them so that she can finish her business quickly and get back to saving lives. But when one of those people shows up at Dr. Goodwin's (Jack McBrayer, "30 Rock," "Wreck It Ralph") office for a dental checkup, Frankie tries to keep up the charade, which leaves her new employer completely perplexed. Meanwhile, Axl discovers that Sue has a perfect attendance record at school and convinces her to ditch a day to live life on the edge; Dr. Fulton (Dave Foley) tries to find out why Brick is so opposed to going to middle school; and Mike and Axl's fishing trip takes a turn for the worse when a distraction causes Mike to crash the boat he's towing, wedging it into a ditch, on "The Middle," WEDNESDAY, MAY 15 (8:00-8:30 p.m., ET).
