Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

stewey7 I personally loved "happy family" - it was a funny family show. Watching it made me realize and laugh at the fact that EVERY family is dysfunctional, insane and quirky (no matter what they look like on the outside) and that's OK. Each week it made me laugh at/with them and at my own families craziness - we're all nuts but we have a lot of love and fun, but that's OK because that's just who we are! I looked forward to this comedy each week and was very, very disappointed at it being canceled, I'm assuming that's what happened although i never heard anymore about it. I don't watch T.V. much anymore, there's nothing really worth my time out there, there's maybe 1 or 2 I will sit down for, but no really good comedies. I'm personally so tired of all the "reality" T.V. shows, we all know they're not that reality anyway, most of them are staged/edited. I wish the T.V. execs would go back to comedy, not just comedy, but family comedy - raunchy/nasty comedy is distasteful and not really funny, just embarrassing. But going back to the beginning, I wonder if there's anyway to get the T.V. execs to get this TV show back up and running again because it really was a cute family comedy.

Syl It took me awhile to warm up to John Larroquette and Christine Baranski, they're both professional and veteran of the sitcom world. Between them, they have about six or seven Emmys maybe more between them. Both John and Christine are wonderful and believable as a veteran married couple to watch even with mediocre material. They are trying and the relationship between Maggie and young Tim is kind of cute and appropriate nowadays. With 8 time Emmy Winner Cloris Leachman casted as Peter's mother, the show is on its way for improvement. Give it a chance or two. If you want to watch two professionals, tune in on Tuesday nights!

budikavlan I'll leave that question up to the individual viewer. This show is by no means a masterpiece, but it could grow into something special. The situation itself is funny, though they will (of course) need to go somewhere with it. The individual lives of the three offspring will need to develop as the show goes on or it will quickly grow old, though the underlying personalities should fuel new situations. I like the extra layer of the story which results from the fact that each of the parents has a clear favorite among the children. Peter prefers Todd, the eldest child, to the point that he was initially in denial about Todd's "2-woman problem." Annie, on the other hand, strongly favors younger son Tim (I loved how horrified she was upon seeing that Tim's new much-older lover was allowing him to drink soda before bedtime). This also contributes to daughter Sara's pathetic self-image.

slappytheclown Having just seen the pilot, I must say I enjoyed myself. All the obvious elements are present to place it solidly in the category of your average sitcom (predictable set-up's, obnoxious laugh track, etc), but the great sense of timing among the actors and the dialogue set it apart from the others. A fine effort.
