Featured review
Mother in law
Such a gem to see Rick's mother. I love this because in most shows the mother in law is usually not well liked, but this mom is very sweet and adores Lucy. She tried so hard to impress her and didn't need to, however fun to watch her try. I feel like the wiring miscommunication has been copied throughout other shows have done the same thing.
