Reviews

texxas-1 This is something I enjoyed as a kid when it first came out, but it's not the kind of thing you can watch over and over again and still like it. This is one of the TV shows that gets stale and annoying fast. It also falls into the trap of other black comedy shows, where it doesn't make an effort to be funny and relys on natural black humour as comedy. It's not funny. None of the characters are funny and the show heavily relys on the kids dumbness and the fathers despair as humour. But it just doesn't work. I don't know why it's still gets aired here in the UK, especially in 2017. It is done. It needs to go. It needs to be forgotten about, because this may have been entertaining in 2001 but the world of TV has changed a lot since then.
heppu78 Watched some episodes hoping to find a one funny joke...didn't get any. :( The most annoying is the leading role, father. But they really have collected surprisingly many bad actors and actresses in one series. The writer must be no more than 12 years old boy who really have nothing to say. Im so sorry that this kind of junk have ever got in the TV. Thank god its over now. Maybe the makers of this "comedy" series have noticed now how bad they are and i wish they have already retired.You all should really avoid this thing. This is my one and only review. Hoping there's never gonna be series like this anymore so i don't have to open out again.
Caio Coletti It's one of my favorites TV series. A wonderful cast, great screenplay and a out siding plot.Watching the routine of the Kyle family is grantee of great moments of humor and great comedy performers. Let's see: - Damon Wayans: no commentaries. He's one of the bests today. Se has a perfect timing and always get the point of the joke.Tisha Campbell: Her's paranoid and sentimental Jay is just wonderful to see.George O. Gore II: perfect for the paper. It's impossible to imagine someone else as the adorable (and dumb) Junior.Jennifer Nicole Freeman: the egocentric Claire found the perfect actress. Beautiful & talented.Parker McKeena Posey: impossible to not fall in love for her.Noah Grey-Cabey: this boy have future, i'm sure of it.I get very sad when it ends, but this show will be in my mind forever. Michael, Jay, Claire, Junior, Kadie... we love you!
Mr_Sensitive This is probably the most irritating show I have ever seen in my entire life. It is indescribably the most annoying and idiotic show I have ever seen. Everything about it is just bad.Synopsis: Different situation comes up each week for the parent to handle their kids.I could not understand, what kind of idiot would produce this mess in the first place not to mention several season. The script is bad, very bad – it contains both cheesiness and unethical joke that you normally see in rated R or NC-17 movie. Especially for the young boy character where all he does is pleasuring himself, is that what one called family show humor? The casting is also horrible, cause all you see is a really really BAD Actors, period.Final Word: This Show is a real torture!! This show provides an image of how irresponsible parent can be (using power wrongly rather than understanding). It is zillion times away from reality. Listen to Kenny G would be a god sends compare to this. Watching washing machine twirling around wouldn't hurt your eyes as much as this show.Rating: 0/10 (Grade: Z) Note: The Show Is So Bad That Even Mother Of The Cast Pull Her Daughter Out Of The Show.
