As the youngest of 8...whenever my Mother was asked this ?...she responded..."My favorite child is...whomever
I'm with"

[ladydeerheart]

My dogs are my favorite children too. LoL

The absolute SAFEST CHOICE is one with four legs & unconditional loyalty!!😉🙋🏾‍♀️🤭

[KRONIK]

Haahaha! That was hilarious, & what a beautiful bunch of kids Jim has, especially his favorite....

[christophersmith]

Good pick. I was actually a bit nervous that he might say who is the favorite among his children.

[karlbaschal]

Best way to handle that question!!!! Once I had a job interview and was asked what are my weaknesses. What a question but without hesitation, I said donuts. Can’t pass those up ever. I get you Jim. —Rose

Last week I almost exclusively watched this brilliant man. My son, 23, likes Eric Andre and, at first, he appaled me. Another comedian does child molestation jokes and I spend most of my wincing. Mr. Gaffigan is delightful and he got me through last week. Our dog doed a year ago December 17. Tell Sam to get me a dog!

I love Jim & all the rest of them!

I had a dog that also didn't bark! He was perfect in everyway. I miss him soo much.

[hummersd]

Ha ha! Love it. 1. Adorable doggo (and a major plus she doesn't bark (yes, my neighbor's dogs are driving me nucking futs)) and 2. Perfect answer for that odd question. Jim's perspective is always a refreshing reminder how to see the comedy in our lives.

So glad you went with the pooch! That in no way takes away from all of those beautiful kids! Your Covid coverage from home has been a "tonic" for laughter through all of this.👍

I ❤️ to how Jim, adopted 🐾🐾 his fur baby 🐕🐶🐕!! So sweet!!

[margo]

She doesn't bark? She's a keeper! I had to yell at my dog for barking (for such a small dog she has an over-the-top loud bark) during this video.

Thank.you for rescuing your dog and showing your great children that adopting and not buying a dog is important!

[JEFFREYcjones-xgcy]

I agree 100 have three Collies and they are my favorite "furkids"!

"Mikey ... who likes me so much it makes me kinda question his judgement" made me burst out laughing in a cafe, and brought a tear to my eye.
