So did you like it or not? It was ok I guess.I was sort of dissapointed.It came off as Friends and Three Sisters meet You're the One Plus Bonnie Sommersville came off WAY too much like Monica then she did as Mona.Now I know this show is TECHNICLY NOT a Friends spinoff Bonnie Somersville will forever be Mona Roberts to me.

I didn't like it at all. The opening of the second episode felt like a complete rip off of Meet the Parents. I can't see this show lasting, it was just not funny.

I thought it was completley funny. I went back in forth from 8 Simple Rules and found this show so much funnier.

I liked it, it is Frasier style humor. And it has not many flaws, aside from a few misses. I say it's the best new comedy.

I thought she looked familiar. There must be some conspiracy to get every person who has ever appeared on a hit NBC show their own show.

Too bad it never works. This one will not be around for long...

Coming from some "Wings" people (Mark Reisman, Pamela Fryman) I was disappointed in it mostly. Laughed here and there, but they beat the "Private convo time" line to death, and sooooooo much of it was utterly predictable.

The daughter set up a joke from ten miles away saying that the father stared into space and started singing when he was upset once. Sure enough, one scene later he does it again.

Then you know the dad will beat to death the "Yeah, me, too" line.

I laughed hard once or twice, but not enough.

I LOVED it! I thought it was one of the funniest NBC shows to air this year! Absolutely hilarious. I can't wait to watch it next week.

I liked it. It wasn't the greatest new show I saw, but it's definitely worth a second look. I think if NBC is patient and gives this show a chance to find an audience it may do well.

This is a terribly mediocre and silly sitcom, but it has a very strong cast and group of writers. Personally, I don't care for it very much because of it's tiredsome plot...but if it gets better I may tune in. Jean Smart was actually quite good, but Farina was just totally unfunny.

It was okay....I find Jean Smart's character to be hillarious, but other then that, none of the characters actually have "flavor"
