    I always loved Phil. He may not be the brightest character, but he was so kind and well-meaning and loved his kids and his sense of humor was adorable.

    Let's be honest, a Phil was the funniest character on the show that a top 10 list isn't enough. Ty Burrell was just amazing as Phil, managing to be slightly creepy at times yet sweet, caring and hilarious all at once. He was one of the only reason I made it through some of the last few seasons.

    A fairly underrated moment for me was when he caught Andy and Hayley on the Christmas episode and he sat Andy down to say “that’s my girl and you’re engaged to someone else, if this is a fling this is over do you understand me?”. Showing his serious side gains respect from the audience as when push comes to shove he doesn’t take any crap against his kids

He’s optimistic, romantic, caring, fun, funny, goofy, charming, and so on!!! He maybe be a child in an adult body, but that’s what makes him so interesting and an amazing character!!!

    One of my favorites: when Joe has a crush on Claire during Valentines Day.
    Phil doesn’t get weirded out or panicked in any way; instead, he talks to the child man-to-man, convincing Joe that he will be able to get any woman he wants when he is older but Phil will never be able to do better than Claire.
    In one fell swoop, Phil diffused an emotional situation with Joe AND put his wife on a pedestal on Valentines Day.
