Man with a Plan

I was skeptical of this show at first, but the casting did well and kept me in for the full 4 seasons that Netflix posted. I was disappointed that seasons 3 and 4 were shorter and 4 ended pretty blah. But I still enjoyed it. I believe that I binged it in 2 days.

Let's just be ourselves - the characters in MwaP seem to have settled into a great comedy-spawned-out -of-honesty area. It feels good. The characters are not perfect, their relationships parents-kids-grandparents are full of lies, tricks and power games, but all in a fun manner. They care about each other, pretty much accepted their limits and they just want to enjoy life. Simple characters, down to earth plot and comedy. Should get as many seasons as they can keep up the joy and motivation to do it.

This show gets better and better! With the recent addition of Swoosie Kurtz and Stacy Kech ( two incredible actors) it is great!! The subtle way they teach their kids to be decent human beings is so important right now! I am very picky about sitcoms and I usually pick the ones that will succeed from the beginning. This show has a great cast and great writers. I hope they just continue to grow together and not screw things up like "Two Broke Girls" and "The Big Bang" because they are no longer watchable !! Please continue to make this better and better--regular TV needs you!!!

I just watched all four seasons of Man with a Plan becuase it was funny enough to keep going!

I laughed more than I expected to most episodes, which surprised even me. I'm a Matt LeBlanc fan from his Friends days (which is the only reason I gave this show a look) and he does a good job as a family dad, the exact opposite of Joey Tribbiani...now he has to protect his teenage daughter FROM the Joey tribbianis of the world!

Kevin Nealon Plays the brother and although his lines are often the best ones in any given episode, his toupee is very off-putting (he was more bald in the 1987 movie Roxanne, when he attacks steve Martin in the opening 5m!)

Stacy Keach is HILARIOUS as the father of both! This guy really gets comedy acting (See: two and a half men) after a career of serious roles. He has re-invented his career in the same way Leslie Nielson did in the 80s

Even the child actors were servicable for their roles

Sadly I just learned the show was cancelled earlier in 2020 which is a real shame because there simply isn't a decent, realistic, family sitcom (with real laughs, not just actors reacting with banal dialogue) that a family can watch these days.

I find it difficult to believe more people tune into Last Man Standing, Black-ish or Bob's burgers than this show...I really wish a streaming service like HULU or NETFLIX or CBS ALL ACCESS would pick up this show and continue it, it would be worth it!

Fun, light hearted show with some family sentiments. It's like watching shows from the older days, where it's just to relax with no real plot. It's one of those laugh-track shows, and it's aware of that. It was nice to watch in my opinion, first season is a bit iffy, but overall it's a nice watch
