cwamne_h Dr. Ken is a family show that focuses on the life of a Korean-American doctor. Ken has a wife Allison, who is Japanese-American and a therapist. They have have 2 kids, the typical teenage daughter and the smart odd young son. The show is about Ken's family life and his work life, in both he's a bit clueless to things.I would say this show is passable, it's nothing you'll be very excited to watch, but it's something you can watch. The problem is there's nothing fresh to the show, besides the fact that it's culturally mixed, which is great. But it's not very funny, the writing is basic, and the delivery on acting is just okay.The cast and characters are great, but the writing is too weak and it doesn't seem like there's much effort in making the show. The actors are fine, just needs better production and writing.

popitarts I watched a few episodes and tried to like the show but the writing. Oh the writing.... You know a TV show or movie has had lazy writers when they break out the name Dave for a character. It's also a good sign of when parents don't love their kids or just don't love them enough to give them a real name. PROJECT ----> Go into any department store, or better yet a Walmart and page the name Dave to come to the red courtesy phone. Guaranteed no less than 5 goobers show up that's how overused the name is, especially in the rural places in America. It's also "almost" a guarantee that any TV show or movie that has that named used for a character that it has been written by lazy writers. So if they're too lazy to spend a couple of seconds to give their characters a better name then they were too lazy to write a good script.This show is a good example of lazy writers.

L T I laughed from beginning to end on the first two episodes...can't wait to see more. From someone who works in the medical field, the scenes were realistic, yet still funny. I watched the pilot and the first episode. The best scenes took place at the hospital, also kudos to the young girl who plays his daughter. Overall there are no bad actors on the show, everyone carries their weight. I've seen Ken in Hangover I and II, he was hilarious in Hangover I, so I knew I would watch the sitcom and caught it on Demand TV. I believe the show will just get better as they develop more episodes. Also, I would consider this a family show, the lines are pretty clean.

ed-26811 I haven't seen this actor before, so came into this with no specific expectations. I'm sure they're just trying to be funny with the script and the overacting, but instead of coming across as funny, it comes across as being really creepy. This show is a total failure IMHO, so bad I can't even bear to give it a second chance after the horrible pilot. It's rare that I hate a show that much, I'm usually willing to at least give a show one more shot after the pilot since pilots can be pretty rough work. I just can't see this show lasting, although many shows I thought were bad do last and ones I've really loved get cancelled. I guess only time will tell, but my verdict is "skip it!"
