Alice, I Think

This show is like a live action 'Family Guy'! The Dad character is hilarious! I hope there are more and I hope the US gets it so all my friends can understand what I keep telling them about the show! The best part is there is something for everyone. I thought it might be for teens more but the Dad guy and his friends are great for adults! Finally a quality Canadian program! I hope there is more to come! It started on the comedy network channel but now it is also on CTV Which I didn't know until my friend pointed it out! Check it out Sundays CTV @7pm Canada brings the comedy! The story lines are based on books by Susna Juby whose writings are internationally renowned. It is really cool to see characters come to life from books. I only read the books because my daughter read them and I heard her giggling and thought I better screen her literary choices. Glad I did! I am not sure where the show is going to go from here but I hope it keeps going. It, like Corner Gas, is helping strengthen the Canadian world of TV respect. If anyone knows more about Dan Payne (the Dad) and Connor Price (the son) please let me know? Just wondering if I have seen them before!

My wife and I have seen the first 3 episodes and the characters are really starting to grow on us. Great casting for the characters. Should be a hit, can't wait to see the rest of the season. Alice, the dad John and the meat eating vegan with the hairy armpits are my favorite so far. The best part is it's an actual funny Canadian made series, haven't had one of those since kids in the hall. Hopefully we don't lose great comedian writers to all the late shows that are in the states so that we continue to have great Canadian programs like Alice, I Think.

I'll be sure to tell others so that there is more than one season of this show, hate to lose it.

Not typically the type of show that we watch but I've been sucked in by Alice I Think. It's witty, simple and not over-the-top. Oddly enough, while based on books aimed at teens, the humour definitely has an adult theme at points (like The Simpsons).

The collection of actors is very captivating. From the Gemini-nominated Rebecca Northan (read a nice Q&A article with Rebecca in U magazine published by her alma mater U. of Calgary - search for it on their site) to the relative newcomer with the large resume Connor Price (see him with Russell Crowe in Cinderella Man) to the hard-working and multi-talented Dan Payne (Stargate, multiple Muppets projects, multiple other movies), Carly McKillip has a great 'supporting' cast (she's no slouch either). Of course, Carly is the title character but her family takes on an equally important role in portraying this quirky BC family.

I think this show will need about another 5-6 episodes under its belt before we fully understand each character a bit better. We've seen glimpses of John's persona when he dreamt of a Tetris-filled life and saw his 'paranoia' with fame after his rookie photo shoot. I still think that Diane and Mac need some more time until we see who they really are. The other true supporting cast member (Marcus, Finn,...) are slowly rounding out as well.

Overall, very enjoyable. Hopefully will be around for a while.

I have only had the opportunity to watch one episode of the great new comedy, "Alice I Think" but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I watched the episode a second time immediately and laughed through the whole show both times. I sincerely hope that a US network or cable channel will choose to add the show to their lineup so that it will be shown in the United States. I think US audiences would enjoy it very much. I will be visiting Vancouver for several days in August and hope to see more episodes at that time. I thought all of the performers did a great job but I particularly enjoyed Dan Payne's performance as Alice's father, John.

Great show, my three kids are in the same age bracket as the children on this show and they love it. Entertaining characters, have only seen two episodes but am looking forward to seeing further development of the characters and how they feed off each other. All four of the main "family" characters are very colorful, favorites are Alice and her Dad as they seem to be the most well developed humorous characters. Looking forward to tonight's episode where the handsome Dad does some goofy modeling. Dan Payne does a great job of playing a sensitive yet somewhat bumbling father in this show, his comedic presence definitely brings a very funny warmth to the show.
