So I'm still watching this show. Although I don't really find it laugh out loud funny, it's cute enough, and I love Phil, so I keep watching. Anyway, I hate how they cover up Alex, as if to say that having large breasts are something shameful, but then they push Haley's boobs up with terrible push-up bras.
And Lily still may be the worst child actor of all time.

I always thought it was weird that Haley is supposed to be prettier than Alex. Alex is WAY more attractive in my opinion. But I guess maybe they are covering her up because she is supposed to personally feel insecure? (like her character is supposed to feel insecure)
I think my H and I might be the only people who still like this show, lol. But I agree, Lily is terrible and it's obvious they don't know how to handle Alex's adult figure.

I love this show, so you aren't alone.
I remember a post on here waaaay back and several people mentioned their love of Lily. I just didn't get it.

Really? I've never ever heard (read) anyone express their love for (new) Lily. I always wonder if that little girl is as much of a brat as her character. Terrible of me, I know.

I don't go out of my way to watch this show, but I do still watch it because I like Phil, too.
However, it should definitely stop winning awards at this point. I wonder how many more seasons will be left. The Vegas one (without the kids) was actually a pretty funny episode.
Anyone watching the show Blackish that's on right now? It's not too bad actually.

I hate that it keeps winning, especially since Happy Endings and Raising Hope got the shaft.

I just started watching the show this year in reruns. Sophia annoys me. The little Lily kid is irritating as hell. But I love the rest of the cast. Can't really speak for the newer episodes.

i have a friend who loves Lily. It has made me question every choice he's made when we hang out. "Why that restaurant?" "Why that movie?" lol

I think they are dressed to match their personalities. I can't see Alex wanting to wear anything that may show off her body.
Agreed. It doesn't match her character to be flaunting her boobs.
Except now she only wears loose, flowy shirts, which she never did when she was younger. And there has to be a happy medium between frumpy and boob flaunting. And why the sudden change to push-up bras for Haley?
So I know Lily's dad. He's a good friend of my boss. It is no coincidence that he has many many ties to Hollywood.
That is all I have to add to this thread.
Innnteresting. I always figured they were screwed because they started out with her so young and then couldn't do anything about it when she turned out to be really terrible at being an actress. But the connected dad thing makes a lot of sense!

No they started out with a really cute baby, actually twins, that apparently hated acting. Then switched to the new one in like season 3. And yes, she's awful.
Alex's real life story is really sad. Her mom was apparently really abusive and she's been emancipated since she was 16.

In all fairness, the writing for the character is pretty great. If a child actor with some talent were in the role, Lily could be hilarious.
