    And I really love Dad’s look in panel 2. Such optimism from one who really should know better! xD

    The cat in panel 4 doesn’t look any too happy.

    As Margueritem said. But cheer up, Dad: you’ve got lots of company now instead of just your unusual son! Fiend Without a Face.

    I thought that was Cybil’s “at rest” expression.

    sigh this brings back such good childhood memories….like when TV’s did not have cable boxes and the whole family watched the same show.

    Lio just doesn’t want Dad getting any ideas about hiring a nanny for HIM.

    ♪♫ Blood drops on corpses and furry black spiders. Zombies, and monsters and headless horse riders. Vampires that fly with the moon on their wings, These are a few of his favorite things…♪♫

    That is what I love about Lio’s dad. He does not really want to watch that movie, but is willing to spend time with his son, even holding him on his lap while he cheers. That is a GREAT dad.

    I’m with Lio on this one (and most of them really). I cannot stand the Sound of Music and Julie Andrews singing makes my skin crawl.

    I love the Fiend Without A Face reference! That movie scared the hell out of me when I was 12.

    More than one TV is an invitation to separate

    DigitalFrog, that was inspired!

    Agreed about the movie and Lio’s great dad. Kudos for letting your kid be himself. :)

    Maybe they could compromise and see Julie Andrews Without a Face.
