Favorite Episode Robert's Date (Feb. 1, 1999) '''Robert's Date' was really the episode that put my character over the top. That was where I dated my female partner, who was African-American. And Robert, always trying to find the niche he fits in, which is obviously nowhere, thought he was black for a while. I had to dance [in a club], and that I had to work on. When I was working with the choreographer, he goes, 'I'm so outta here because I don't know what you're doing.'''

What's Next Now that the rumored spin-off for Robert and wife Amy appears unlikely, Brad Garrett plans to do stand-up on the road before scouting new TV and film projects. ''For the first time in my life, I can be picky,'' he says.
