I wasn't a huge fan of the first episode but it had its moments and I'll give it another chance

It was PAINFUl but then again so was Gary Unmarried and that turned out to be a cute show !

Maybe they can take the focus off the annoying kids. That'd be good.

I was willing to give it a chance because I'm a Kelsey Grammer fan, but where in the heck have all the good sitcom writers gone (and don't tell me those half-a$sed handheld cam NBC "dramadys", because that's a load of crap)? I'll keep watching because I hope the characterization gets better. I was hoping for something along the line of Reba at least where it was some what tolerable.
Also, if you're judging a show by the laugh track, you're probably below the age of 24/25. I hate how people act as if traditional sitcoms are poison.

*sigh* I guess I'll go back to watching my reruns of Frasier. This is why I don't watch network television shows anymore. TV has sucked since 1999.

Yes that was part of the problem, the kids should always be the 2nd focus not the 1st like on The Middle

The show is not bad! Don't listen to reviews constructed by CBS top brass to kill the show. I know this for a fact!!!

Hank will be on the air through Thanksgiving--Tune in and reserve judgement until you have watched more than one or two.
