The McCarthys - Thursdays at 9:30PM ET/PT on CBS
Premieres Thursday, October 30, 2014 at 9:30PM ET/PT

The McCarthys is a multi-camera comedy about a close-knit, sports-crazed Boston family whose somewhat athletically challenged son, Ronny, is chosen by his father to be his assistant high school basketball coach, much to the surprise of his more qualified siblings. Ronny wants nothing more than to move away, join the singles scene and find a partner. His distraught mother, Marjorie is not upset that her favorite son is gay, but that he wants to leave Boston and his family. Ronny's plans change, however, when his politically incorrect and outspoken father, Arthur stuns everyone with his choice for an assistant. Touched by his father's offer, Ronny embarks on a completely different future – and he can be sure that his loving family, including his twin brothers Sean and Gerard and his sister Jackie, are going to have a very vocal opinion about it.

I hope this show does well. It has Laurie Metcalf….Joey from NKOTB and John Ritter's son.

Tyler Ritter, John’s son, is more like his late father than Jason Ritter, and the show is a throwback to past hit sitcoms. PLUS: The characters are appealing (http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/tv/la-et-st-cbs-mccarthys-review-20141029-column.html), and it’s a by-the-numbers sitcom (http://www.newsday.com/entertainment/tv/the-mccarthys-review-massive-deja-vu-1.9552388).

Tyler Ritter looks SO much like John. Even some of his mannerisms are like John's.

I liked it and hope it survives but CBS loves to cancel comedies. Hopefully the ratings improve or stay steady so it can survive.

the previews make this show look unbearable and unoriginal

It had a few laughs but for the most part I thought it was stupid. But I'l keep it on because it comes on after 2 and a half men and before I watch Parenthood.

I agree with you. I watched it the other night, and didn't really get into it. I just saw a bunch of somber people eating.

I seen Thursdays show it was okay will give it a few more viewings. John Ritter's son sure looks and even sounds like him.:eek:
