Guys with Kids is a new comedy from Emmy Award-winning executive producer Jimmy Fallon about three thirty-something dads who try to hold on to their youth as they face the responsibilities of having kids. Thankfully, Gary (Anthony Anderson), Chris (Jesse Bradford) and Nick (Zach Cregger) have each other to help navigate the highs and lows of fatherhood -- while still trying desperately to remain dudes. Balancing work or staying at home, happily married or happily divorced, taking care of the "littles," while maintaining a social life is a daily challenge. Whether it's hosing down their babies in the kitchen sink or hitting the bar strapped with "babybjörns," these guys are taking on fatherhood in ways no one has ever seen before. Nick and Gary's wives -- Emily (Jamie-Lynn Sigler) and Marny (Tempestt Bledsoe)--as well as Chris' ex-wife Sheila (Erinn Hayes)--also offer their own parenting advice. Dads today are more involved in their kids' lives than ever, and these guys are no exception. No tantrum is too loud, no diaper is too dirty -- Nick, Chris and Gary are up to the challenge.

"That's pretty much the show," says Tim Goodman. "Guys raising kids. Isn't it hilarious to imagine that men wouldn't actually be the breadwinners of the family and would instead raise the kids? Nobody's ever heard of that in 2012. Can you imagine these Cro-Magnons being forced to live their "guy lives" while saddled with the albatross of a baby? Hilarity ensues!" PLUS: It's a cheap, stale, stereotype-addicted sitcom, and real parenting is more fun than watching this show.

I watched last night, thought it was pretty good. Not ground-breaking but pleasant. Surprised it did not do so well in the ratings since folks are always talking about viewing family-oriented fare in the first hour of primetime.
