La casa de los animales

The field is wide and there's a lot of competition. But based on the the pilot, this show fills a niche: comfortable, pleasant television you can put on and relax to, chuckling occasionally. Not groundbreaking, just... non-committal and enjoyable.

Let's be honest now. It's now exhausting to watch the "must sees." Shows so intricate, you feel you need crib notes to keep everything straight; or your absolute, undivided attention. I have gotten to the point in which gritty, tension-filled, award-vying TV makes me too tired. No, I DON'T always have the emotional capacity to commit to your complex story-arc filled with flawless people and absurd budgets. My spouse refuses to speak to me for most of these pretentious epics, insisting on pausing and rewinding for missing 3 seconds.

Life. Is. Hard. It can be good too, but for the love, people. Pleasant comedy is essential. And shows that don't cause trauma after viewing are becoming my new favorite genre. I'll take watching pets in therapy any day! It's imaginative and creative.

So if that's not your thing, fine. Don't rain on Queen Lisa Kudrow for doing the Lord's work.

The show is geuinely interesting and I think people should be more open minded about it wait for more episodes and give it a chance.

The first episode went really fast it wasn't anything amazing but it wasn't horrific but at the same time it left me wanting more and it was kinda funny. It's just the pilot so maybe it will get better in the next upcoming episodes.

I had given the show and it's writers a 2 and a scathing review but it and they have won me over - the sexual innuendos, which I felt were gratuitous, have diminished to a more thoughtful trickle and I've become invested in the characters and some of the more clever pet related issues - MAYBE it's that since the pilot I was given a 4 week old kitten ( named Smudge if u must know, and u MUST hehe) and well.... So I'm big enough of a content consumer to admit whe I've been a fool and acted hastily.

It seems that SO many people DEMAND animated shows to be EXACTLY what they expect, usually based on another show (Family Guy, Southpark, whatever) that they like.

Housebroken is....funny. It's not edgy, or crude or in your face. It's just standard issue, excellent voice actor funny.

You like pets and wants to see something funny, Housebroken will do. You want to force it into the mold of whatever else you liked, it probably won't.

Give it a fair-minded shot and you shouldn't be let down.

I think this is a cute little cartoon, and I really like it. Some of these reviews are just bizarre. What exactly were you people expecting from a cartoon about talking animals? One person said they "just don't get the point of it." Again...it's a cartoon about talking animals! It doesn't have any deep meaning or significant purpose. Haven't you people ever watched something just because it was silly and fun? With the exception of documentaries and other educational programming, you could ask yourself what's the point of pretty much all shows in existence. The point is simply entertainment. This show just happens to be entertainment that you don't personally like, and that's fine. But acting like you just can't understand why it's even on the air is beyond ridiculous. I've always thought Seinfeld was absolutely pointless and not funny at all, but many of you act like that's the best thing that ever existed. Different strokes for different folks. I say if you're an animal lover, if you've ever wondered what your pets would say if they could talk, if you can enjoy silly humor about the lives of pets, and you don't take yourself too seriously, then give this show a try. If you think every show has to have some deeper, existential, or philosophical meaning in order to be worth watching, then you will be disappointed.
