Surprisingly meta. Sympathetic actors bringing out the best in each other. The least painful way to experience the feel good family sitcom.
Underrated funny show but I understand why it was cancelled early. Became repetitive. Still worth a watch.
Rob Lowe being the full Rob Lowe. It’s ridiculous but it’s funny
A funny, well-rounded cast lead by Lowe and Savage. I really enjoyed this show and believe it deserved a renewal after its first season.
It was funny. Too bad it didn’t last longer
Horrible
Funny, just not funny enough.
