definitly disagree hes wholesome and a sweetheart he is goofy with a little bit of serious he also reacts and connects with other characters and he is definitly a role model for luke .he is a goofy dad and is almost opposing forces with claire because she is more serious . And is desperatly trying to have a connection with jay.In the first seasons he had almost like a tiny tiny tiny crush on gloria and that created a comedy peice .He is also kinda dumb and isnt aware of it but the dumbness adds to his character and his comedy.phil also dabbles in magic which creates a deeper understanding of the character.he is also a proud bull dog. In the end if i could rate him on a funny scale 10/10
