Ok, this is seriously rediculous! Did they fire the writers and hire some idiots of the street?! What exactly do they think they're doing?? I understand they need to change things up from season to season, but the show has lost my interest at this point. If this doesn't get fixed, I'm not watching the show anymore, and I think that goes for a lot of fans...

Hopefully soon the storylines will come alive with plot twists,remember the days where you could not predict everything? Long live Jill and bring back Boris. Interest me again.I have got to use spell check more often.

This show was a bittersweet one for Jill but is it the producers that want her at an arms length from Hank or has she grown tired of the show? She is a
creditable actress and if she is only going to be making cameos from Africa if she really is gone from the show. No Meat,no substance. This show is getting one demisional and why the writers think that Hank,Evan and Diviya can hold this show up is beyond me. Boris seems absent,Henry Winkler is brought back briefly to spark the show but it does NOT have the creative feeling of season1. Perhaps USA will read the fans reviews and react to the negativity. I am getting more to the point of catching posible live and no longer setting more DVR for this show. When a show gets bland that tells me the writers are running out of ideas. Long live the impulsive, chemistry between Hank and Jill. Maybe we will get lucky and Jill will get sick in Africa and who will be called in.....if we are lucky.

As for Henry Winkler: two thumbs up (get it like the Fonz use to do) there are some inconsistency on the show but I still love it.

One continuity note: Jill left her note with the delivery guy before she went to Africa, but included a comment about how beautiful it is there. Careless!

SMS, you seem rather focused on what Hank does and how Hank acts. Let's have a look at Evan. His fiancee comes home in the middle of the night, allegedly wakes him up, yet Evan doesn't remember. AND....even as he welcomes her home in the morning, he stops to record an idea on tape before he forgets it. Meanwhile, he had no idea that Paige had been fired (hence her early return) and it takes him 4 days to get around to having a meaningful conversation with her. Evan may be good at business, but he's missing some MAJOR social cues. Is THAT someone you want as a friend?

I appear to be in the minority, but I'm an Evan fan. Sorry Hank is still acting supeior and overbearing to Evan, even while he is personably floundering. I don't believe he can be effective without some kind of "Evan". So who wants to be treated with a straw (stop with the homemade doctor kit and get the Divyamobile back.). Personably, I would rather have Evan as a friend than Hank. He seems to give up rather quickly when bumps appear in the road. But of course, I want the band back together. Look forward to dad giving both of them a good shaking.

Sworn off the show. The premise always bothered me- tony clients getting first rate health care without having to sacrifice their social obligations (even the "royal" in the title sets my teeth on edge.)Only watched occasionally because of Divya and Jill. Always hated Evan and Eddie and Hank is just too smug.

I have no issue with their dad coming back I just wish we could get the Boris story going again
I am so over the fighting brothers storyline, and Evan behaved like a total idiot in last night's episode. I too prefer the Boris story lines to current ones. Heck, I like Dr. Sacani better than Evan at this point. At this point, I'm considering no longer watching the show - it's gotten that bad.
Jill has been threatening to leave for so long that I'm not sure what to make of her absence. It seems impossible that she will really be gone from the show, but to bring her back quickly would strain credulity.
Anybody seen Boris? I would much rather see Boris than daddy.
@DiamondLife: 'How could a letter Jill wrote just before leaving say "I wish yiu coukd see it here, it's so amazing"?'
Funny! The African visuals pulled me in so well that I completely missed the obvious temporal problem.
@Chandel: It's Dr. SACANI not CACANI.
@Chandel: "WHEN WILL THESE TWO LEARN TO COMMUNICATE??????!!!!"
About the same time Lucy and Ricky learn to communicate. In other words, never.
Not sorry to see Jill leave, never could stand Evan, way too selfish and immature - now, that character could leave as well.

How could a letter Jill wrote just before leaving say "I wish yiu coukd see it here, it's so amazing"? Suddenly as Hank is reading the letter it moved time and was Jill talking to him from Africa? Come on now, the show has to have somebody checking the scriot for continuity.
This season has totally lost me.
Nobody fun. Nobody funny.
Nobody acting like someone I would care about.

Ok, pardon my stupidity, but did I sleep thru Jill suddenly getting a new job in Africa???! Thought last week she was stuck in the Hamptons, jobless and houseless.....huh?
And I adore this series but ENOUGH OF THE SIBLING RIVALRY! And now, we have to call in Dad? Sorry, spoiler alert belated....
