Crowded

We were surprised that this show is created by a woman because all of the female characters are so shallow and stereotypical and ignorant. The storyline, the text, and the vocabulary are demeaning not just to women but to humanity in general. Baffling.

We are huge fans of Patrick Warburton. He's the reason we watched these first three episodes. He had several hilarious one-liners. His is the only character that has any decency or depth at all. The others are bor-ring and annoying and we're just not willing to spend our time watching boring and annoying. Like the actors, just not the characters.

Hopefully the show will get better. It has a good premise. Hopefully they'll move past using foul language and bleeps (both are witless) as well as foul imagery and references ("crappin' on therapy"? Really?). Hopefully all of the characters will actually show some character, backbone, and intelligence. Hopefully there will be topics other than sex, looks, and drugs.

Not sure whether we'll tune in again or not.

Unlike some of the comments on here I Really liked this Show and the cast. It would be nice if someone else would pick it up. I laughed during each episode. I am tired of wasting time watching shows on the 4 networks getting into shows that they cancel either mid run or don't re-new for a season 2. If they operated like this back in the 70's, 80's and 90's shows like Cheers, Friends, and so on would NEVER have grown to be what they were. Simply put they DON'T give a show a chance to grow and develop into what it can be, such is America anymore. It's all about corporate America and what can generate them enough money NOT about the Craft of developing shows. Oh and they need to stop being so politically correct.

It is a good show worthing your time to watch.

It gives a smile on your face, and gets talented actors. The performances of all actors are wonderful and right on the spot. The topic is genius and creative, and so is the composition of the characters.

However, while this show makes you happy and delighted, it is true that it contains only few punches in one episode making you burst into laughter. For the sake of the common practice of U.S TV series, this show does not contain a main theme crossing through the whole show either. They do not handle the character Ethan well except the episode he was introduced.

I love this comedy! It's the freshest comedy on TV. Very funny writing and the acting is excellent. I have no argument with any of the casting - though it took me a little while to catch on to "I-Carly" in her new role. At first, I didn't think Miranda Cosgrove was a good fit for the show, and her lines didn't seem all that funny. But I've gotten used to all of the characters and the fit seems better every show. Warburton's character is hilarious as always, but the sister who isn't played by Cosgrove practically steals the show every week! She is REALLY FUNNY! I think the Sunday night time slot doomed the show. It's on the wrong channel to pair with "The Big Bang Theory" or "Two Broke Girls", but that audience would fully appreciate this show. Plus, I think NBC pulled the trigger on it much too soon. It deserves another year at least, and if NBC doesn't see the light, I seriously hope another channel picks it up. Wherever it comes on, I'll find it and enjoy it. Very funny show! Shame on you NBC for being so trigger-happy!

By episode four, this new show starring Patrick Warburton (as father of the family, Mike Moore) is coming into focus. If you like Warburton's comedic styling, you will probably like this show. He will remind you of David Puddy from "Seinfeld", but Mike is not as dim-witted. Carrie Preston plays his wife, Martina. And the two millennial daughters who simultaneously return to the household to nest are Stella (Mia Serafino) and Shea (Miranda Cosgrove).

But the family doesn't end there. Stacy Keach is Mike's father, Bob--a hard-nosed retired detective. His wife Alice is played by Carlease Burke. And Clifford McGhee plays Alice's son, Ethan.

Though there is the occasional joke about the adult child returning home, the episodes do not focus on that topic. Actually, they are still laying the groundwork in the first four episodes. But the relationships are beginning to develop and more laugh out loud moments are occurring.

At this point, I will grade this show a "7", hoping that the writers can get into a groove as the Moores become more like family to viewers. When I consider that another well-written show, "Modern Family", relies upon its well-defined characters for its hilarity, I know that "Crowded" can possibly achieve similar results.

The two daughters, who might remind you of the daughters on "Modern Family", need to become more central to the focus of this show. There is untapped potential there.
