Reviews

knsevy I'm really not sure what killed this show. Could just be a general feeling of surfeit regarding the 60s, or perhaps the sense that 'The Wonder Years' already milked this cow dry. Either way, it's gone.I watched the first (only?) two episodes, and failed to get much of a feel for it. Oliver was the only character who engendered any sympathy; the father and mother were distant, and the big brother was just a jerk - but a cute one. I wouldn't turn him down, if I didn't have to talk to him.The show didn't handle itself all that badly, didn't have impossible characters, and possessed some decent writing. So I really can't guess what killed it. Maybe other viewers felt as I did: Yeah, it's got some jokes, but nothing stands out.If so, it's ironic that this mediocre show died and 'Friends' and 'Seinfeld' got made, at all.
vinylsiding I normally don't add a "me too," but in this case it can't be emphasized enough that this is so clearly an attempt to steal the wit and humor of The Wonder Years. And never have I seen a case of a "remake" being so far inferior to the real thing. The Wonder Years is a classic. Oliver Beene should be shelved and all involved should change their names, wear disguises, and take an oath to never mention it again lest it be found out that they were responsible for "creating" such a horrible creature.
mmkh1 Andy was so cute in the the show i wish he would be in more part but i am just glad he is in it. Oh and the show was really funny i almost feel out of my seat when the dads caught them kissing each other because i was laughing so hard and when the dads were screaming at each other
blktoptrvl The Wonder Years meets Malcolm in the Middle. Not quite as good as the wonder years, and nowhere near as good as Malcolm. This is FOX at it's worse. The kids in this show have absolutely no appeal at all. They are not anyone you might want to meet in real life.
