Get Real

I saw all of the episodes of this show, and it was great! The situations were real. What situations happened in the show were actually happening to real people during those 2 years it aired. I think it was a great show, and it also emphasized how being close to your family is important. For those people who have not seen this show yet, and have the opportunity to, I would highly recommend watching it! The first 4 episodes go a little slow, but that's because each episode tells the important information about each characters traits and lifestyle. Some parts of the show are serious, while other parts just make you want to laugh. The surprise is, if you get to see all 20 episodes, how the characters act in the first 4 episodes isn't how they still are by the end of the show.

I remember this show being really funny and well put together. Revealed Anne Hathaway's promise early in her career. Sadly canceled before it could grow an audience.

The aptly titled "Get Real" is just that. A very true reality of the average family today. Okay, maybe not 100% average, but close enough.

When I first started watching mid-season, I was extremely drawn to the relationship between siblings in this show. They get along amazingly, but in a strangely believable way, and every time I watch this show I find myself longing for the same relationship with my own sister. The Green kids mix just the right amount of friendship with fighting, and I love the writers for displaying their rapport with one another so well.

For those of you who have never seen "Get Real", I find it to be very similar to "My So-Called Life", but with many more points of view since this is very much an ensemble cast -- there is truly not any one or two true "main" characters, there's just the whole group of them. And unlike so many other television shows today, "Get Real" has not succumbed to including the token gay best friend or the teen pregnancy that we are all so used to. When they introduce issues into their shows, they do it without calling attention to them. It is already apparent that Kenny's newfound deaf girlfriend will simply be Kenny's girlfriend by the next episode. The writers don't dwell on these things like so many other shows feel the need to do.

All I can say is, this show deserves a long run. Anyone can find themselves in these characters, and I hope that the writing stays at this level for a very long time.

this was the type of short-lived show that you love while its on, are heartbroken when it gets canceled, and forget about it quickly, but every so often it pops into your head somehow and you wish you could remember its name. i was like 13 when this show aired and i was in love with it. if they put this out on DVD i would pick it up in a second, and hopefully it wouldn't disappoint, cause i had pretty low standards at 13, but i would like to see it again. i am surprised to see that so many people remember this show and are demanding to have it released. i think that with 22 episodes this series is worthy of a DVD box, and it looks as if it would be worth the while of fox, but unfortunately i honestly don't see it happening. hopefully someone thought to tape them all and will have them up on ebay.

Mitch and Mary Green are just like any thirty-something California couple, except that they have three high school-aged children. Meghan, a senior, is an A-student with a rebellious nature. Cameron, the middle son, gets suspended from school and has girls sleep over. And Kenny, the youngest son, is totally inexperienced when it comes to the exciting new world of females. They may be dysfunctional, but the Greens are totally lovable. The use of creative camera angles and unusual plot devices helps make this show continually entertaining. "Get Real" is a fun, clever show that will appeal to males and females of all ages.
