We've been sticking it out with Cougar Town only out of courtesy for Bill Lawrence, creator of one of our favorite shows of all times, Scrubs.

Luckily with each passing episode, this show seems to be getting closer and closer to finding its funny niche.  During this last episode, "Don't Come Around Here No More," the entire cast managed to get together for a barbecue at Jules' house.

Now that's a good thing because this show is actually good when we see each of the character interacting with each other and actually growing, as opposed to a series of one-dimensional caricatures that rarely interact with each other.

We're hoping by next season (if this show gets renewed), Bill and crew will have this show figured out.  There's no way we can say goodbye to Courteney Cox again.

Now for some of our favorite Cougar Town quotes from last week:

Grayson: You can't stand to be along for a second can you?
Jules: That is ridiculous
Grayson: So why did you go out with father time?
Jules: Because I am a history buff and I haven't been in a car with only a lap belt in a long time | permalink

Jules: I'm happy about Bobby's new horn, the odds from my son dying in a golf cart accident went from definitely to probably | permalink

Ellie [to Andy]: Listen half pint, I'm not gonna thank you for things you're supposed to do. If I did I'd have to start thanking you for killing bugs and supporting me | permalink

Laurie: Dale's not perfect, I mean it's not cool he forges Dan Marino's autograph for a living, but I think he really cares about me, don't you?
Travis: That depends, does he have your name tattooed anywhere on his body?
Laurie: He says he does but I haven't been able to find it | permalink
