That's right, this show is still on, John Stamos is still on TV and
unlike Rob Lowe, he has yet to say something stupid about the
terrorists attacks in France. Not to mention this show was picked up
for an entire season by Fox because, you know, it's funny and stuff.
Last night on Grandfathered (#Grandfathered) after spending weeks
seeing his son Josh Peck strike out with Christina Milian--baby mama,
love of his life, doesn't know a good guy when she sees one, the
usual stuff--he decides to step in and help the boy land a real woman
who will not think that a Netflix and chill night will be a mistake.
His plan: fix the boy up with some nice clothes (really a toned-down
version of his own California laid back businessman-style), teach him
a few techniques to land the ladies and take him out to a nightclub
to pick up women.
Meanwhile, Christina Milian started another new job/hustle selling
energy drinks to businesses, mainly Stamos' restaurant as he's been
the only buyer. He, naturally, tells her he'll buy a few cases after
hearing her terrible pitch because she's family but when she turns
around to not only try getting him to become a distributor of the
beverage himself (because that's where the real money is) but also to
get into another hustle she's working, he realizes she is the perfect
candidate for a mentorship.
Being the stand up guy he is, he orders his restaurant manager to do
the job and take Christina under her wing. But this ditzy,
empty-headed girl thinks she will be the mentor not the lesbian
manager. Afros almost get pulled and ass whooped when Christina is
offended by her new mentor's take on her life: it's crap! Who saves
the day but the cute little baby.
Back with loving, open and caring Josh Peck, he and his dad go to a
bar together where his father tries coaching him into the skirts of a
few different fine ladies. Actually having fun, he ends the night
with a young woman off of whom he does a few body shots. Things are a
little crazy to say the least but everything turns out OK as he has
met a girl. Not so fortunate, Stamos ends up with a rambler chick who
has a "talent" for making any word shorter or hipper. A
mouth that runs nonstop, he does leave with her and is happy so long
as his son is. But he has his doubts.
Turning into the overbearing, worrywart parent he thought Paget
Brewster would be when it came to their son, he makes a visit to the
two girls' office (his and his son's girl work at the same place).
Under the guise of bringing flowers, he learns the office gossip that
Peck's new lady is supposedly sleeping with the boss on a long
business lunch. Though it's only been a week, Peck's smittenness has
reached critical mass and he needs to know that his new girlfriend is
already cheating on him. No one stops to think at this point why she
would have even given him the time of day when he supplies her with
absolutely nothing that her boss probably doesn't already give her.
He's broke, has a so-so job, is a single dad, doesn't have game and
doesn't seem to make good sex as Christina hasn't gone back for
seconds.
Both story lines collide when Peck brings his girlfriend and his mom
to his dad's restaurant. Milian apologizing for exploding about the
offence, she admits that maybe her dreams are a little out there. The
manager levels with her, telling her how she once wanted to be a soul
singer. Thinking she can teach the older lady something, she pushes
her onstage to sing, I mean kill cats with her horrid, banshee-like
screeches. She enjoys it though.
Ready to blow the whole secret wide open, Stamos sits down with
Brewster as they listen to Peck's new girlfriend chastise him for
eating, then being clumsy, and I'm sure for breathing too, though I
might be wrong on that. When they get up and leave to clean the
spilled oil from his shirt, Stamos and Brewster check her phone,
finding texts from some name under "Big Daddy."
In the oldest, sitcom trick we all still know, love and fall for, it
turns out they incorrectly identified big daddy as the girl's boss,
as opposed to their son. He defends her, lesbian manager feels good
that she made the right choice to give up on her singing career,
Stamos learns both how to and how not to be a worried parent and Peck
gets to keep his new girlfriend. The only casualty: Peck's 3-D
printer which he sells to take his lady out on a snazzy date.
What did you think? Are you still watching and loving this family
comedy? Do you think Peck's new girlfriend will stay for long? If so,
will she make good competition for Milian? And what about the
relationship with Stamos and Brewster? What do you think will happen
there? Let me know in the comments below (hint: click the no comments

Until next time, "I'm not about to
get knocked-out because of my stellar, always workable armbar
technique. Oh, you said they're allowing kicks now? Oh."
P.S. Not everyone can take a foot to the side of their face like
Rousey can. Does one loss a fake make? No. Like Donnie said, we fall
down, but we get up! I'll think of a better sign-off next time.
