Great Use of Fantasy
fortionat129 July 2010
This was a great series and this particular episode was very good as well. As in most episodes Bernie's ego gets in his way as he rides his motorcycle trying to get approval of other bikers all the while missing commitments to his kids. Funny enough as he wrecks and what follows.

The best part of this episode was the use of Earth Wind and Fire's song Fantasy when Bernie thought he was dead. As I watch it now its kinda sad as Bernie passed on way too early and as in the show things changed. Here he finds all his (adopted) kids have turned for the worse. A good portion of the song is played as he walks through the house. Its cool. We miss Bernie.

Crash proof
ctomvelu-117 December 2008
Bernie decides he wants a motorcycle and buys a monster-sized one. Wanda is terrified at the thought of what might happen to him, but he brushes her off. Naturally, the Mac Man has an accident, and then has a bizarre dream of the consequences of him suddenly dying. The kids are now all screwed up, especially Jordan, and Wanda has taken up with one of Bernie's least favorite buddies, WB. The funniest part of the episode is the outrageous black leather cycle outfit Bernie wears: He looks like he's appearing in an S&M movie. Part of the plot has him being overly protective of everyone once he has recovered from his spill.
