jimequity99 I would have never watched this show, if not for the bad reviews already out there, I had to watch the episodes on line which were available. After watching the first two, I am more surprised that this abomination was cast after someone might have read the script. There is barely a laugh in the first two episodes, in fact I felt bad for the actors who were hamming up the tired old gags for a laugh. Both male leads play it so that you can't help but to not like either of them. This is unfunny, terribly acted, and an unlikable cast from top to bottom, everyone, and everything that happens is stolen from everything else you have ever watched before.

Markus Petherton The show clearly doesn't bring anything new to the table. The humour is poor and I failed to find any of it funny.What made things worse as one of the other reviewers has said (adslgr- alhtes) they then resort to pathetic attempts at humour which are frankly just offensive. The scene where the two dads (who are two grown adult men) decide that they are going to punch each other in the nuts is just ridiculous. Not only would this never happen but it shows just how desperate for laughs they are when they have to try and get laughs from such a stupid and dangerous action.I am glad it is going to be cancelled. I have a lot of time for the guy that played one of the dads (he was in Glee as Kurt's dad) but the material for this show is just plain crap.

SnoopyStyle Two families are forced together when their kids have an unplanned pregnancy. Ricardo Chavira and Mike O'Malley play the dads, and they don't get along. Mary McCormack is one of the moms who also has an unexpected pregnancy. Justina Machado is the other mom. The actors playing the teens aren't anything special. The dads' constant bickering is very distracting. Although punching balls is always funny. Mary McCormack has a little more to do, and looks slightly better by comparison.There is nothing new in this show. At least they don't have the annoying laugh track. But other than getting punched in the nuts, there isn't much to laugh at. The teens aren't funny at all. The dads are barely tolerable. Only Mary McCormack is watchable.The emphasis seems to be about the adults. I think that misses the comedic point. It seems much more logical and funny if they center the show on the kids. They have lots more to deal with. You can introduce their friends. The parents are better off as co-stars. When push comes to shove, there is no rules to say that in-laws have to be in each other's lives 24-7. But there are reasons that parent-kid relationship is 24-7.

zachbernheisel Every review I have read for this show has been completely negative. I really don't understand what people didn't like. I thought it was pretty good. Mike O'Malley is a really good actor, and the cast seems to be having a fun time.Every critic is calling it a "culture clashing" show. They could not be more wrong. Yes, there are two families, one latino and one white, but that is not the point. The cultures aren't clashing, O'Malley and Ricardo Chavira's characters are clashing. They don't like each other, but race has nothing to do with it. Class has a little bit to do with it, but it's mainly a show about two people who can't stand each other, but now they're in laws. Everyone is calling it an All in the Family ripoff, but at most it's an Odd Couple-ripoff, which there have already been about a million of. Not that there's anything wrong with that.I've heard people say it's a racist show? How? There was nothing racist about it. I've heard people call it "broad comedy". But there's no laugh track, physical humor, or over the top performances! If anything, it might be a little bit too low-key. I liked it a lot, and I am not normally a big fan of family comedies.Bottom line, it's not great, but it's good. Ignore the critics, check it out for yourself.
