GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

reynosa99 I know some of you think that this show is just another dumb sitcom and the writing is juvenile and sophomoric. Well what did you expect geenius?.I mean they do have 3 kids on the show and 1 of them IS in the 10th grade. DUH! But some of you have even gone so far as to compare the show to Roseanne and Everybody Likes Raymond. What are you, on drugs? That's like comparing Laverne & Shirley to Lonesome Dove! I would have to say its more similar to a dysfunctional Family Ties, with the 60's mom & dad replaced with an 80's model. Now some of you folks have even complained about Mark Addy's English accent. Now your just pissin' me off. That's like complaining that Judy's dress is too tight and lowcut. To quote Bill "Son, sometimes you gotta go after that hot slut a little harder then your regular girl,and that hot slut was your mom and I did or you kids would be a whole lot uglier than you are today"

andrealknapp I had held off ever watching this show for just one reason. Mark Addy is English. After seeing him in The Full Monty, watching him try to 'do' an American accent was just too painful.Then, drunk one night, I watched this show and kicked myself. This show is hilarious and the timing of the main characters is spot-on. They are just like most people which is why I think I like the show. They are just like me and my husband. I have my DVR set to tape the show WHENEVER it is on!Excellent show and once I've finished writing this, I am going to Amazon to see if there are DVD collections of the show.

Xander Seavy (RiffRaffMcKinley) This TV show would be a lot better if someone were playing Judy who knew how to act!Mark Addy ("A Knight's Tale") is another generic TV dad in another generic TV family replete with an estranged grandmother, a no-nonsense wife (the shudder-inducing Jami Gertz), and children who are more than happy to one-up their parents. Few things about this series distinguishes it in the annals of TV. However, those things that actually do are things that really make a difference.First of all, there's Addy. He's interesting in any role from Fred Flinstone to a cockney peasant and even to this generic TV dad. His work goes by with only a few cringes. Secondly, there's the occasional guest spots by the great Sally Struthers (Gloria from "All in the Family" and the voice of Charlene Sinclair in "Dinosaurs") as the aforementioned estranged grandmother.Sadly, though, usually when I end up watching this, it's because I've turned the TV on a few minutes early for "Everybody Loves Raymond." But it wasn't bad, and it ran for four years. In TV World, that's almost a hundred.

jwtrox08706 This is one of the funniest family sitcoms I've ever seen. It reminds me a little of Grounded for Life (another funny family sitcom), only a little less mature, so it's more family friendly, but the content is real enough to make this a credible show. It's a shame it's out of production after only four seasons. Yeah, it wasn't M*A*S*H or Full House, but it is certainly a breath of fresh air on television, and it certainly brightens my day to join the Millers in another misadventure of their everyday lives. I like Jami Gertz better in this show than any other movie or show she's done, but I don't know how I can say that because other than this show, I've only seen her in Twister, and I wasn't a big fan of Dr. Melissa Reeves, but I did empathize with her after the drive-in movie scene. Anyway, I also like Mark Addy's character as well. Bill & Judy Miller are parents that I almost wish I had. The comedy is great in this show. The lines never stop coming sometimes, and I find myself having to catch my breath from laughing so hard; it's almost like watching Robin Williams do stand-up...not really. But it's great. If it comes out on DVD, I'm totally buying it.
