Extended Family

It has only been one episode, so this may be unfair, but it looks very unfunny with lame, hackneyed attempts at jokes. Abigail Spencer showed she can act on "Suits". I am not sure she can be funny.

Jon Cryer is still playing Alan from "Two and a Half Men". That shtick is old.

I may tune in again, just because there already no new episodes of any other network shows, but episode one was terribly disappointing.

There really isn't much more to say. Read the other reviews that are all saying the same thing. The jokes just are unoriginal and I don't think I laughed once in the whole half hour of the show.

So much didn't work that you could make this a drinking game while you watch it,take a drink during the laugh track or tired jokes & clichés.

It was under 30 minutes & this episode just dragged on,on & on!

The casting overall didn't work,the acting felt overdone & more like they were doing a play versus television.

Feel JC still feels he is Two & a half men funny,perhaps at one time but here it just was cringe-worthy.. He is playing another similar(Alan)character why not a man in a stable marriage,he's a widow or single & no kids but yet-Here we are!

This won't last beyond a season unless things improve,with many adjustments!

The unfortunate part got excited seeing a new series with JC,but like anything things can change where a person isn't acting material anymore.

Check it out yourself & decide,but don't expect a masterpiece.

I had high hopes for this show. I liked all of the principal actors in other shows, and the premise seemed original. But, as with he new "Frasier", the laugh track is tired and trite.

Someone, somewhere thinks that if they throw in a bunch of laughs, giggles and gasps, it will make their bad show worth watching. I have a tip: if it's not funny in the first place, a laugh track won't change anyone's perception of the show.

And now, to make up the required character count, I will create the IMDB "character track" for your amusement. Try not to laugh! Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

The most remarkable thing about this show is Jon Cryer is cast as a largely unwanted house guest, who is eccentric, shameless, and who gets laughs while trying and failing to fit in.

This is in sharp contrast to his previous role as Alan Harper in "Two and a half men", where he played a largely unwanted house resident who is eccentric, shameless, and who gets laughs while trying and failing to fit in.

At this point I would like to see another "Odd Couple" remake starring Jon Cryer, where he plays both lead characters. Because this role would be the perfect career trifecta for Jon Cryer to finish with.

Emmy award winner Jon Cryer is back in a sitcom role as a divorcing father, Jim Kearney, of two in Boston, Massachusetts. Lenny Clarke plays his character's father on a recurring role. Donald Faison plays, Trey, who also owns the Boston Celtics, the popular professional basketball team. Trey becomes his ex-wife's fiance. The kids get along with the new arrangement. The parents are co-parenting in the contemporary age. Boston is a great city to set a sitcom too. The cast is good but could be better. I have seen almost all of the first eight episodes. I would prefer to see more slapstick humor or even physical humor in the show. We need to see more sitcoms. The art of comedy is a lot harder than drama anyway. Jon Cryer and the cast are doing their best with what they have.
