Spoiler Alert I love the character of Joel in the show. Yes, he did mess up his life badly but he was lost. And it is very real and human to me. Then he tried his best to find himself, such as working hard to fix the family business while taking care of kids, punching the manager who didn't pay Midge, speaking up at the resort on behalf of the family and supporting her with her career choice at the family dinner, even he didn't want to be the topic of her comedy (fair enough). While we blame on Joel cheated on the Midge, we seem to forget that Midge cheated on her finance, Ben. Comparing this Joel and Midge, I found Joel spend a bit more time with the kids then Midge. The scene when Joel was drunk and begged for forgiveness really touched my heart. Anyway, just want to share that I think the character Joel was well written and acted out.

Becky, I completely disagree! Don't get me wrong, I really like the show and this interview was very interesting and entertaining, but for me the way you and Alex and Rachel and Michael see Joel is absolutely naive. He is just an inmature, spoiled jerk. He lives a very good life: he has a well paid, secure job, he has a wonderful wife and two healthy children, but is he happy? No, he's crying like a little boy because his unrealistic dreams didn't come true. That's not just inmature, that's f...ing ridiculous! I don't wanna say that he's a bad guy, but he's also not a good guy. Maybe in five or ten years he could become a grown-up, but now he's just a whiny boy pretending to be a man.

Well, technically. After the call, I think Midge broke their engagement over the phone after the offer to work for Shy.

This interview is interesting, the interviewer obviously has a lot of insight into the characters, but... she's asking actors about the characters as though they ARE the characters and not actors playing parts that are written for them.

Alex, something to consider: you have two ears and one mouth; use them in that ratio. The result will be far more interesting for your listeners. Most of us are probably more keen to hear what the actors have to say. It's great that you're enthusiastic but you're not the star.

Honestly, I remembered the during Midge and Joel's era was the era of neglectful parents. Those children, in the end, become helicopter parents of our era as a reaction to that behavior. I mean, look at "Mad Men."

The interviewer clearly prepared to interview Midge and Joel instead of Rachel and Michael. After 5 minutes, I can accept that, even though it certainly hurts the interview. But when audience (and probably staff) repeatedly try to save the whole evening by relieving the interviewer of her job by moving on to audience questions and she simply goes on interviewing (in her mind) Midge and Joel, it starts to hurt again... In a perfect world, she'd have gotten the many, many, many clues at some point, but sadly we're not in a perfect world. Minute 39: Fiiiiiiiiiiiinally.

G, the pressure on modern parents! Midge is at home with the kids all day. I think it's okay to leave them with the grandparents for an errand or a nightout. That doesn't make Michael or Midge bad parents!
