Nathan Miller (Will Arnett) is a rising news journalist who just so happens to have just ended his marriage and is adjusting to the single life, but he won't have a whole lot of adjusting to do when a new lady moves in with him. Unfortunately, that new lady is his mother, Carol (Margo Martindale), and she is being forced to adjust to a new life too as Nathan's divorce makes his father, Tom (Beau Bridges) realize that leaving his wife could actually be fun.

I thought it was okay, I'll have to give it a few more showings to see if I like it or not.

It may get axed in the middle of this season, no offense!

I think this show is very cute!

Full season pick up which I'm surprised, they need to make the Mother more sympathetic.

One of the supporting actresses has her previous show ending by May 2015, but if this show can go beyond May 2015, then this supporting actress will officially stay with show permanently.
