Adam F. Goldberg looks back at his hit ABC’s sitcom, explains why he avoids politics and sex on the show, tells of wanting Bette Midler as a guest-star and reveals the time he had to write an apology letter for exposing John DeLorean’s grandkids to their grandfather’s legal troubles.

Eh- this show does NOT have legs like The Middle does. I loved the first few seasons. I thought season 4 was tired, and these days, I only catch about half the episodes. It has become very repetitive.

I do like the show, but the whole "Erica" thing really bothers me because the show is supposed to be about Adam F. Goldberg's real life. In real life, there was no Erica. There was another BROTHER named Eric who is completely ignored and replaced with a fictitious sister named Erica.

The show is a fake.

If I was Eric Goldberg, I would be totally insulted.

Eric is perfectly fine with "Erica". Why do you keep getting personally mad about this?
And it wasn't Adam's choice. The network gave "notes" saying they wanted a (teen) girl included.
