I think the couple her really works well together, both great actress and really funny, hate to say it; but Tisha is the best actress in this pair.

I hate they are playing Jr. so dumb, and yes Franklin is a little genius, but you do get tired of him. The little girl is a good, she is about to sprout over Franklin and be too big for him soon.

I do not know what to say about the middle child(she is obviously very pretty) but like all middle children, there is not a lot of focus on her.

This is something that really puzzles me! Why do characters have to be SO DUMB that there a step away from being classified as mildy retarted?? These characters are just not funny! In my opinion good comedy comes from people who think they're smarter than someone by trying to outsmart them! NOT from somebody who is overtly stupid!! It's like a college graduate challenging a kindergarder's intellengence! It becomes cruel not funny!

I gotta agree w/you marvin! This show is really something I just watch when there's nothing else on tv. It doesn't make ANY sense how stupid Jr. is

! He's not even stupid, I classify him as

!

Also, Claire is pretty nutty herself! She's just there for looks. She's a pretty girl, but she brings nothing to the show. So they could send her off to camp or something... buh bye

!

Now, Kadie, she's the SMARTEST out of all the kids (it's weird how the youngest has all the sense)! She's a lot bigger than Franklin, so they should just take his little, cute self off of the show. She also looks older than Franklin (he's 6 yrs. old, and I know she's gotta be at LEAST 8), so if they want a little boy to have a crush on her, then MAYBE they should get a boy HER size

!

I get annoyed w/Tisha's character. Damon gets on my nerves too.

I agree!!!! I still don't get why Franklin is on there. It would make more sense to have a kid like Kadie that is the same age and for that matter, the same height. Kadie and Franklin looks as if they could be brother and sister then anything.

Damon gets on my nerves more then Tisha! He used to be funny especially when he was on In Living Color and now, I dont know what has happened. Maybe they should add Marlon and Shawn. They are funnier!

I know, right! Kadie TOWER'S over Franklin. She really does look like she should be his sister. If you look at them, you can tell that she's older than Franklin. I don't know WHAT they were thinking about when they casted Franklin. They just saw a cute, smart, little kid, and they decided to write him into the script. Nevermind the fact that he doesn't even have a purpose being on the show

Well my thing is they need to get more intelligent writers on the show. They play Claire the same way they do Jr. One minute or episode they're 'normal' they next minute or episode they're deadheads! As far as Franklin, he needs to go. Kady should have a female friend to play with. I would however would like to see more of Tony. That good God fearing christian boy he plays is funny especially the way he plays against Damon!

The only thing that I like about Franklin is he can seriously play the piano but other then that, nothing. Franklin needs to go

Tony is so funny!!! I think he is what makes the show, whenever he does appear (lol) To me, it's the only time that it is actually funny.

You don't think the father is weird?
