It seems to make no sense, but the title of the April 22 episode of According to Jim, “I Drink Your Milkshake,” will become clear as the plot unfolds.
The tables turn on Jim when he finds himself the target of a disciplinary measure he developed to keep his kids in line. Think reality shows like Survivor and how decisions are made in the wild. And, yes, Andy has something to do with it.
Nice additions to the child-themed episode are The Suite Life of Zack and Cody’s Cole Sprouse and Dylan Sprouse, who make guest appearances.
According to Jim airs …read more
