BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Torrin-McFinn77 Most sitcoms in recent times are unfunny and banal but I found a few I liked. And this was one of the more recent ones I enjoyed. I know liking this show now makes me a late bloomer but I will watch reruns when they come on another network. Like Malcolm in the Middle there is no laugh track but it doesn't have to have one. It's just a neat dysfunctional family with a father, a mother, their two sons, and their daughter. The youngest (and younger son) is also Ono the cattle egret from The Lion Guard. He's also a whiz kid with a serious view of the world. Next week will be the series finale and I intend to watch the whole thing. The best part about The Middle is that there are no drugs, no sexual acts, or alcohol. What a change! It makes the show a little more family-friendly. I can't help but wonder what's next for the stars. I'll still watch Brick Heck (Atticus Schaffer) as Ono on The Lion Guard. That'll be on for a while.
lizzie-25588 The MIDDLE is a great family comedy, which is rare, carouse all these other tv shows are crappy nowadays. The Middle is so hilarious. I DEFINETLY RECOMEND RHIA FUN FAMILY COMEDY
wackykathy This show represents middle class American families - our homes aren't perfectly decorated or maintained, our parenting isn't always what it should be, our family members are unique, and we're just trying to get through the day. And life is pretty sweet just the way it is! It's a funny, charming and heart warming show. Our family always relates to it and we appreciate that it's a clean show that we can all watch together - teens and parents. But do be warned, middle class America enjoys beer; characters in the show will imbibe, in case you find that inappropriate. The acting is spot on and the ensemble is perfect.
J. Mark Freckleton It's not that I am a puritan, but most sitcoms have enough raunch to them that I don't always feel comfortable watching them in mixed company. Yet often the humor lies in the very words, phrases and concepts that make me want to keep my kids away from the show. That is never a concern with "The Middle." On the other hand, it is genuinely funny - and although based on exaggeration, a solid reflection of the typical, average small-town American family. Most families have to live modestly from paycheck to paycheck, live in a plain, cramped house with old, tattered furniture, drive an older (sometimes junky) car and live with a degree of eccentric dysfunction. However, the family members are loyal to one another, even as the occasionally disagree. So many family comedies depict a group living in a house that, these days, would cost a million dollars, with furniture brought in by an interior designer, who talk in in soundbites heavy with zingers and put-downs. "The Middle" has a coherent plot and a nice flow of dialog. Frankly, I have been surprised it has been on for so many seasons, running somewhat under the radar as it does, and I am looking forward to future seasons, at least until Brick goes off to college.
