Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for January 20, 2025

Nothing brings a family together like watching a little Barney The Dinosaur. ;)

Like I said, it seems like even in a situation such as this, both Luann and Bernice still have designs on Piro. Meanwhile, I think most of us could also agree that Alan may have some puppy love going on for Luann.

My question on Sarurday was “where do we go from here” implying there was no where to go. I was wrong. Also it looks like Bernice has got it bad for Piro, the troubled fixup man. Boy, is she needy.

Barney? I haven’t watched The Flintstones in ages!

A little instant Karma.

Oh, I thought they meant that purple dinosaur character!

Look, it’s the twins whole faces!

Is Alan old enough to get a nose job, yet??

You hadda go and open your big mouth, Bernice, LOL.

I hate you. You hate me. Let’s nail Barney to a tree.

Are they EVER going to get back to Les’s secret crush on TJ?

I like this arc; it’s so much better than the “dorm room drama”!

Maybe they’re watching THE ANDY GRIFFITHS SHOW…

Years ago one of th cooling fans in Barney’s suit shorted out and smoked causin the actor inside to suffer from smoke inhalation. When it came on th news, kids that were watching were traumatized because they thougt their favorite purple dinosauer burned up

Trying to keep up with the Jones comes with a cost.

Maybe they are watching “How I Met Your Mother” there’s a Barney in that series too…..given all the fathers that “met” Piro’s mother.

I bet that Alan is a step-sibling, not blood relative.

Tara Starr is missing?

Bernice thought she was leaving the kids to Luann – and she ended up with them instead. Today’s a big irony day; there’s irony at FBOFW, too…

Maybe Greg is going back to younger kids where he is more comfortable than he is with the 19 and 20 year olds. Luann and Bernice in an upscale day care. It would provide the structure that they lost when they graduated from high school.

Gee, Bernice… Could you look even less thrilled than you do now?

Has anyone seen B watching or going to a movie?

So where are Frank and Nancy while all this is unfolding in their house?

Barney Miller reruns?

Well, unlike a certain other “kid” in this Strip, these “kids” haven’t DESTROYED anything yet.

So I’ll give them points for THAT. ;-)

Who watches Barney anymore?

‘Barney’, eh? Are they watching The Flintstones? Barney the Dinosaur? Mayberry, RFD? God the suspense is killing me!

Cool your jets, Berniece. Pedo is grooming you. And he is absolutely not worthy.

LOL!

Day 1 week 2. When will the Degroots find out about all of this?

“Hey, Barney!” What the hell year is it in Evans Land?

Gee. Alan’s speech seems quite normal. Imagine that.

They are clearly watching The Expendables with Barney Ross.

Selfish, selfish Bernice…

That got Bernice’s attention, but in a way she hates.

Bernice really has a low tolerance for children if she needs a break when the one who has been with them all time is Luann. It’s funny that the old lie she told Piro keeps coming back to bite her. In the meantime the children have taken a liking to her and I think Alan will talk to Luann, describing his family’s life.

My paternal grandmother and aunts/uncles were not kid friendly at all. They were of the mind that kids should be not seen nor heard. Going to visit was like visiting the Doctor’s office or the Dentist. We did have maternal grandparents who adored us but lived 7hrs away in Queens.

Bernice is turning out to be less and less of a catch, while Luanne is becoming the more rounded one.B doesnt seem to like kids and is self absorbed, L is helpful and friendly w kids. Who’d make the better wife here?
