" Men is 'no longer [about] the bimbo of the week', the show is 'more mature' now "
Chuck Lorre
There are a couple of scenes in this episode in which Walden has to take care of Eva while Zoey goes out for shopping. If you think about them and compare them with the earlier seasons, you will notice how much progress Two and a Half Men has made. From a show that was 100% sex, it has evolved into a more mature and serious comedy. I really like this change and I feel that TAAHM has progressed more in this season than it did in it's previous 8 seasons.
Taking the story from where it left in the last episode, Walden keeps his promise to Zoey and asks Alan to move out. Alan is shocked (as expected) but eventually moves in with Lyndsey. Both men expecting to have a gala time, end up having a torrid one. Lyndsey makes perfect use of the opportunity and makes Alan complete all the pending household tasks. Each of them hurts Alan physically in some way or the other. Meanwhile, Zoey enjoys her new freedom as Walden agrees to take care of Eva. But like every kid, Eva becomes too demanding and too defiant. She throws tantrums which is too nerve wrecking for Walden. In the end, both Walden asks Alan to move back and resume their normal lives.
It is a pretty amusing and interesting episode. The episode does bring a few laughs. The Eva-Walden scenes are funny and heart warming. Special credits to Lyndsey who sexily manipulates Alan to do all the household chores ..... which is amazing to watch. Alan's miserable and horny act is good. The best part of the episode has to be Walden's attempts to satisfy Eva. Overall, it is a good episode.
Star Rating : ★★★1/2 (3.5)
PS. It would to be sad to see TAAHM being pulled off-air considering so much progress it has made.
